[QUOTE=Oedipus_Tex;3374362]
I think there ARE ways to get a lot of the system, but players haven't been big on picking it up. I can definitely see the completion of an AE arc being the ticket to admitting a person into a super group for example, with the final pop up window being the "password" the player needs to join the group. I also am surprised we haven't seen the birth of "gauntlet clubs," where players build missions that are intentionally nigh-impossible to compete with each other on who can survive/win the missions, again using the final pop up as a codeword that is "proof" the player completed the task.[/QUOTE]

I have done this very thing (in bold), and have actually worked on an arc with this premise (in italic). The only problem I had with the italic idea was that what some characters might find a challenging gauntlet that they can scrape by with clever inspiration usage, and/or sweat and tears, others might walk through wondering when the challenge would come... It is a balancing act that is tough to manage.

"God of Thunder"~KISS = Skullbanger SS/WP Brute
"The Wall"~Pink Floyd = Strong Box Inv/EM Tank
"The Warrior"~Scandal = Airspeed EB/EM Blaster
"Veteran of the Psychic Wars"~Blue Oyster Cult = War-Torn Emp/PB Defender
"With a Little Help From My Friends"~Beatles = All Masterminds
"Crazy Train"~Black Sabbath = Runaway Train DM/Inv Brute
"One"~Metallica = Full House DB/Nin Stalker
"Don't Fear the Reaper"~ Blue Oyster Cult = Most Stalkers
"Barracuda"~Heart = She-Blade Claws/Regen Scrapper
"Ballroom Blitz"~Krokus = Rogue Serpent Thugs/DP Mastermind

I have the same problem on my wife's computer. ATI Radeon 9250 (Yes fully aware that it is an older card, but always worked before and I know they said that if you could play at launch, you could still play today.) Trees in the distance do this luminance thing as well, which is funny since this card won't show glow on any setting.

Other than that, her computer has been embarrassing mine since I17, I have the issue where my computer hangs up on log in to the point that it shoves me back to the login screen... No error popup, no explanation, no cookie for me. I was fine with that too, until going rogue and the new Que system. Waiting in 155th place in line is ok, having to do it again because of some error that I can't seem to get any assistance on (Hijackthis and DXdiag showed absolutely no errors anyone has been able to identify) is less fun.

In any case, I can only turn shaders to low (with world bumpmaps) max on her computer. This did little, but a tad less bright, though she can't navigate these corridors alone and fights are just not an option. She says she feels like she is in the equipping room before entering the Matrix. :P

Overheard in Brickstown:

But shouldn't that read "Former Paragon Hero Goes Vigilante"?


You know, for the sake of accuracy and all that. :P

Maybe this will help.

Welcome aboard!

You can find some room over there behind my addictions.

Save for the fact that you then have most characters logged off at these terminals as opposed to day job locations if you keep track of such things. I am sure that you would be able to just log off as usual, just something to think on.

Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.

Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.

Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.

Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya)

Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've got him on the spot, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

Yo!

Always a pleasure to see old faces necro themselves. I never leave. CoH is my first digital love that I now share with my first real love, but there is plenty of city to share.

Welcome Back!

I have had an issue since the launch of I17 that crashed me back to login with no error message on certain zones. Since I recently upgraded my computer, and prior to I17 there was no problem at all, I decided to dig deeper...

So I found that when running even in Windowed mode, and at settings that my old computer still can play without a hitch, I was accumulating quite a bit of information in the Task Manager... To the tune of 1.8 million K! (As an aside, my older computer never gets to this point.)

My best solution was to minimize the window while the game is running and refresh my desktop, and I watch as my usage dropped from that ungodly number to around 25 thousand K. When I returned to the game, it was much smoother, and did not seem to want to accumulate that much memory again (though it will still climb to around 650,000K, but more than acceptable to the alternative.) It may or may-not help, but I found that this works for me, and I figure that someone else may get use out of it.

Good luck!

I found another Longbow mission villain side with my stalker, and while not actually being supressed, there is a noticible slowdown on the speed of Eagles in flight and the distance they will flee to. I will get on in the A.M. after my night audit shift and test a lot of Longbow missions to make sure.
