  1. I was wondering when this would launch. it is better to wait a bit and come out with a good product than release a product with a big bug right before a holiday. I have 3 words for this announcement.....


    I can wait

  3. hmmm, if you are still interested in drawing characters, I have several here you could try;

    Ace of Crimson Clubs


    the White Noir


    Brass Rounds


    if you do end up drawing one of them, just pm me

    *edit* also my namesake toon Hochroter Drache has a reference in my signature

    The new CoP could be really interesting.
    I think it is great to have some different forms of fun to be had... and a potential (up to) 24 person team trial could be a lot of fun and a change of pace.
    It could very well work out to be sort of like the Rikti Mother Ship Raids and the Hamidon Raid and such... and (While some may not like that) I think that is a cool thing.
    Always add different options and outlets for differing brands of fun.

    The Tip Missions sound like a nice addition. I don't even care that they can lead to morality missions (I mean, that is great too, but even without, it's nice to see). I also took the "perhaps... possibly" to mean exactly what it means, so no re-wording needed as far as I am concerned.

    Great job, Team!




    Hah!!



    This is always what I look for first as well, hehe!
    You can see some new costume bits in there
    Some (If not all) we've seen in pictures already... but it is still nice to see more.
    Pic 5 has some variety lined up for us to see.
    Looks like some rather sleek options. I like those boots on the lady in blue, second from the left.

    But yeah... want to see more! And definitely want to see the emotes!




    Haha... Indeed! This is my only complaint about this Issue.

    wait.... are those piston gloves? me want also the other costume poeces thrown about that picture look pretty nifty as well
  5. oh well, anyone have any idea when it goes up in the store tommorrow?
  6. bah, I hate hate hate my internet took a full minute to get the image to appear, and then had to relog in. so I obviously missed it oh well

    My only gripe when it comes to the packs - or much else - is that we still can't gift them, just apply to our own accounts. If they followed Chaos's idea above and I got one, I'd end up giving it to a friend of mine who's a bit busy with a one-year(and change)-old, but would still love it.
    Oh, I hear where youre coming from and definately agree. I really don't get mad at much, and even for the people that dodn't get the codes, well it's not like it really cost us anything anyway

    3. Costume contest. "I suck at making costumes."
    4. Graffiti contest. "Only for the art folks."
    5. Movie contest. "Only for those with video skill."
    6. "Just give it to random forumites" - "They're playing favourites.
    7. Screenshot contest. "My video isn't good enough, of course I'd lose!"
    8. Do nothing. "NC does nothing to promote the game!"

    Add "it's not fair" to any of those.

    Alternately... relax, enjoy, good luck, congrats if you get it, oh well if you don't. I know which approach I'm taking.
    heh, I'm pretty positive I won't get a code. I won't get mad. it would be cool yes, but with my internet being slow as hell and my typing skills not so great, I can pretty much guarentee that I won't get one

    but I can say I will get the pack regardless even if it means I must shell out a few dollars for it

    Hey I remember these heroes. I was a fan of HD back when NCSoft had that big costume contest that bombed... I was one of the people who helped to turn the thread around into something positive after it went all south in a hurry lol.

    Your post count doesn't seem to have changed much since then haha... have you been away or just on perma-lurk mode since then?

    P.S. Hey HD has a different face now (and different cape etc as well)... or am I imagining that?
    yep, been gone from the game for a while, came back to see how things are and to get ready for GR
    and yes, I changed her face and cape, also added more color to her (as in black and gold). she's on Virtue now if you ever want to drop me a line. I also have a widow version of her too
  13. pardon me, if you are still taking requests, I have two chracters here you could throw your hand at :3
    Hochroter Drache - http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs49/f/20...ter_Drache.jpg

    Ace of Crimson Clubs - http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs47/f/20...ter_Drache.jpg

    if I was too late in getting in that's fine too
  14. hmmm, too late I see....... grats to the one chosen

    oh well, I'll just leave this shameless plug here anyway

  15. I am not sure how many of you actually know me. probably not many, but I feel a need to announce that at least for a while I am taking a break from CoH. I feel I'd rather take a break from it now so I don't start disliking it like some people. I am also giving Champions a shot so that would also account for my lack of being around

    well, see you people later and have a wonderful day




    p.s. here is one one of my new characters, the Copper Compatriot. figured I'd leave you guys an interesting champion to look at

    SSHIIIIIINNG!

    awesome pose
  17. I love your style and want to make a minor point about about the comment on DA you mentioned earlier. all our styles change, take this picture of mine for example. its already outdated for my style, but it shows how things change. Don't get depressed about someone's comments as you are not there to please them. and we all will lose fans, but we also gain them. it comes with the territory.
    hope that helped to boost your morale. point is, we like to support artists here. for the fact that we are decent people (I think........) and the fact we will do about anything to get new art to look at

    well. in reality, it's still 51 months of experience. you just paid for 51 months, 39 of which were double priced ............................................ $$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
  19. oh wow. I love your style if you are still taking requests, I have 2 characters that would be nice to see if you aren't too busy.
    either my Hochroter Drache. her bio is here(it's the journal entry there) and she is noble and can seem like a stick in the mud, but tends to be friendly and gets into situations where she could seem like a fool. (reference is in my sig)
    or my Ace of Crimson Clubs. a screenshot of her bio is HERE and her personality is a mix of quiet and brooding, and theatrical and sometimes flamboyant. (her reference is also in my sig)

    you can do one, or both, or neither your choice

    btw, poses don't really matter a ton to me, so do whatever you like
  20. mine is already in my sig. not sure if I did it right, but I am using it thus far.

    not that great, but oh well.

I ADORE puzzle-solving games and strategy games. give me a full battalion or regiment (whatever the 40 or so you can have in one go is) of 2/3's Elite Longbowmen and a 1/3 mounted archers in Age of Empires 2 and I could be damn near unstoppable. the point is, learning will always happen, and an enjoyable activity that teaches you something is alright by me.
    (too lazy to click on another post so I quoted myself) Hmmmmm Sister Flame and you are on Freedom? I think I have actually seen that name go across my screen a time or two, but didn't think anything of it. now I have to curb my tongue, knowing there are such small children around. and feel free to ask for about anything from me in-game, Hochroter Drache loves helping out new players and young children. the kids around early teens tend to annoy me with their "drama" and the fact that some bring a sense of "spoiled-ness" with them however, so it's refreshing having a player that loves the game regardless of their age, and who isn't in a rush to get their character to the lvl cap as fast as they can. kudos to you and a tip of my figurative hat to the little lady
