  1. Since issue 18 came out I've noticed the game crashing after a few hours of play. When I checked the resources in use when the game crashed (Using Windows Task Manager) the Ram being used was 2gb, so I added an extra gb (taking it to 3gb), however I still get the same crash at between 2.1 and 2.2 gb of useage. This is total page file useage and will include other things running in the background (normally just Paragonwiki and team speak).

    My Wifes machine (which is a different build to mine) hits the same issue at the same point, her machine has 3gb too.

    Is anyone else getting this and has anyone got a fix?

    Both machines are running XP with service pack 3.
  2. The group of people I normally play with tell me that to get the badge and reward from a TF now youi have to enter every mission.

    I've tried searching the patch notes and the forums, but alas my search-fu is weak today.

    can anyone cobfirm this is now the case or point me to a post on the subject. Cheers!

    I can live with the prompt (though I don't like it), the extra graphic is the pain, why does it play the MF casting animation when you receive a MF?

  6. I'm indifferent about the prompt, it's the 3-5 second interupting Graphic on the target thats an issue.
  7. As of the patch today when you are given a fortune you have to accept it again, seems like a retrograde step and to make things interesting you now have a graphic show when it's cast on you which stops you in your tracks for about 3-5 seconds which earlier today got my wife killed in a mission.

    Wonder if this is intended? Has anyobe seen todays patch notes?

    • If the MAKE OFFER and POST are disabled due to too much activity, you will no longer be spammed with a huge number of announcements telling you about it.
    • If the MAKE OFFER and POST are disabled due to too much activity, the buttons will become active again after a short time as they are supposed to, instead of remaining greyed out until the player logs out and logs back in again.
    Has the disabling always been in?

    My opinion is the "SPAM" level is set too low. I've been locked out just trying to get 15 items from the AH. 15 items isn't even the maximum I could have had available to take. It seems to me you should be able to take down as many items as the maximum you could have on the AH very quickly without being locked out.

    To say it was messy at some points is an understatement!
    I have a screen shot of 6 or more Black Scorpions near Talos station!
  10. Just finish on Defiant, great fun. Many thanks once again to Mod_08, very fast response to requests, the 3 hours passed like a dream.

    Especially liked orion star tanking a whole mob of GMs as a defender!

    Did not like the way everybody was asking for me to be "pvp enabled"

    Great laugh though! Best thing though was that most of the people in the zone i didnt recognise!
    So You missed Mod_08 calling the Yellow station the Noob Station then changing it to the Damz station, ooo thats a shame
  13. Can't see a thread on this anywhere so here we go.

    Many thanks to Mod_08 for a great 6th Birthday special event on Union last night, it was a blast. Thye way you worked with us and listerned to what we asked for was excellent!

    Can't wait to play on Defiant tonight! Any chance of the Riechman appearing tonight?

    To Mod_08s bosses, Give him a pay rise he deserves it!

    You are making an assumption that a Hero of Villain arriving in Pretora knows all that back ground. Unless someone gives them a breifing they'll see a place which seems to have law and order worked out. On the surface the Hero will see little crime, except for a band of rebels and may offer to help. the villain will see the same and probably offer to help the rebels. Only as time passes will they realise their assumptions where wrong and by then they may have done things which go against their moral viewpoint.

    Where does the bit about pretoria only having level 1-20 content come from?

    Okay I'll bite, what is you're favourite Chocolate bar and why?
  16. I do wonder if this is in the wrong part of the Forum, I get the feeling the European Lounge isn't looked at by the Red names, might be wrong, but maybe it should have been posted in the general one.

    I was hoping for a boxed set and an influx of new players, but I guess I was hoping for too much. I've not felt Doom before and I don't like the feeling now
  17. I'm saddened by the lack of a boxed set for the EU. I was hoping the presence on the games shop shelves would mean a new influx of players. Seems like an odd sales strategy not advertising your game.

    It also explains why when I've asked in shops if they have a release date for GR they can't find one. Meaning players who have left will have no idea there is something new to come back for. Poor show.

    Make sure you have any object/player/foe targeted, and press KEY.

    Note: There is no need to press the key twice. The release of the key re-runs the command again which automatically stops following and returns you back to third person view. The trick works the same whether you are standing still, walking, running, jumping, or even flying.
    As long as you have a target, your view will instantly reset to camera-origin when you press KEY.
    Many thanks MB! At last I can look down/up a slope in a cave and then get my view back to normal. Woot!

    Good Sign

    I'm wondering about timescales, if they continue the CB for as long as usual and then have an OB will they have time for a CB and OB of Demon Summoning? After all it's due out in April and here we are mid March.

    Of course there may be no CB/OB for Demon Summoning in which case it's all mute.
  20. I like the suggestion, would help a lot of new players and hopefully thats what we'll see after July when GR hits the shelves.
  21. I know that the "Page Down" key recenters your view behind your character in the left/right plane. Is there a slash command or key that centers the view in the up/down plane?

    I didn't fancy CoV when it came out so didn't buy it, after about a year I decided to get it to try Villians and to have the bases. Picked it up for £6 on Play.com that included a free month (£8) so I wasn't so bothered when it became free as I'd paid -£2 for it.

    So you could just leave it a year and you might get it for less than free! of course everyone else will have played it to death by then so don't expect to find teams.

    BTW I will be buying Going Rogue as it really appeals to me, need to wait till after I get paid at the end of the month though.

  24. Okay thats it, it's taken Toooooooo long I'm not going to buy it now
  25. I can't see a thread about this, but my search-fu is weak today.

    It's 1st March and I've checked (again) to see if I can pre order GR from the official shop today and I can't see it anywhere. Can anyone point me to a thread about this or where I can pre order?
