Same price as a server move, or a character rename? A little high, don't you think? Perhaps half the price and it's a more viable option. $10 is a little too high for a purchasable respec.

And I think people meant a purchasable respec in-game with in-game money. Not just the ones on the market.

Looks like after the Rikti invasion schedule that's been posted before, there'll be no more Rikti invasions (according to the calendar). So, does this mean the Rikti's invasions will be abandoned and only occur after somebody finishes the Lady Grey TF?

I'm wondering if the interface will let you see what zone your character is in. Right now it doesn't (the one on test)

Now that I've seen most of what's going on here, I can properly add my two cents. There has been one 'DOOM'sayer on a global channel, who got added to gignore, because every game they played before CoH/CoV were owned by SoE (and they basically killed every game they touched except EQ2. They improved EQ2 from unplayable, actually)
They didn't understand that the franchise was owned by both companies. Now, the franchise is owned by solely NCSoft, with the development house inside NCSoft. More people to work on the project, and to hide some secrets of MUO, and some CoH secrets as well from each other (making two competing games in one building developed by the same people isn't good)

Anyways, that's all that.
Personally, I think this is good news. The dev team remains. The development team can now properly concentrate on the game we all enjoy. Sure, they deserve breaks (and also probably play with us in-game sometimes, we never know because they can't reveal themselves. Well, if they come in-game as their in-game correspondents...)

So, thank you Jack Emmett for allowing NCSoft to purchase the City of franchise. And thank you NCSoft for making the wise decision to allow all of the same developers of the game to remain in the studio to continue making this stellar game. It's the game I play the most these days.

Hmm, is it Serdar "Lord Recluse" Copur who didn't stay?

People who are complaining about everybody having CoH and CoV... stop complaining. You got one month of playtime with purchase of CoV. Overall, it's good news. Perhaps villainside will get some more exposure with the people who only got City of Heroes, and didn't get Villains. Villainside is mostly neglected, while on hero side, I can find a team at any level range...

I'll check Vista in a bit for ya... of course I just realized I was booted into Vista, so once the 7.10s are installed, I'll see if CoH runs better

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who saw that the television was stolen. Good thing it's not just my card...

Help me, BillZ! You're my only hope! Okay, now that that's out of the way, I have an issue with my ATI card. And I use your recommended settings
ATI Radeon X800 Pro
Ageia PhysX card (yes, I have one)
2GB o' RAM
And I've noticed this issue in villains. It doesn't happen all the time, for some reason. But it does happen fairly often. I use the latest drivers (7.9 catalyst) under XP and both Vista (I dual boot, so I have a quick comparision. I know Vista has issues on it's own)

First, this is villains, and Scirocco isn't his old self.
Cap'n Mako is nowhere to be found.
Black Scorpion also has his issues.

Finally, our good ol' friend Television.

These are the MAIN issues I have. Other enemies are viewable fine. I just get these graphics issues (I get issues under the contact bar as well, like weird white spaces)

The game is fun, and will continue to be fun, it's just immersion breaking when these models don't completely render.
Any ideas on fixes to this?

Note: I use omega drivers under XP, official drivers under Vista. If I need to downgrade drivers to fix it, I will. And I get this issue if CoH is the first, or second, or X game launched after a reboot.
Hopefully you can help me with my issue!

suggested build?

Just so you know, Force of Nature is NOT like Unstoppable. When you use it, the crash ONLY effect endurance, not your health. Also, it doesn't have any resistance with it (only the defense buff).

The endurance also is able to be recharged the moment the crash happens. In other words, it's more like Moment of Glory instead of Unstoppable.

Heartless Moonlight

There's one thing that both people in Paragon and the Isles understand, and that's music. Of course, there wouldn't be bands around without the help of others. They might be fans, roadies, security, or other essential parts of a band, but kept together, they will survive and prosper.
Now, having an interest in music and metal does help, since the leader does have the band named after him, but he doesn't mind giving honorary titles to those in the band who might help, even who might be good friends in the future. It's not like you need to be the best person in the world, but if you have an interest, an interview could help.

(( Heartless Moonlight is a small, and I mean small SG right now, hoping to get bigger. More members would help this. RP-based, and for mature players (some things are not for minors) will help. RP is not the primary focus. The primary focus is fun. The two leaders are played by the same person.

Just a note if you're a vista user, now that the catalyst 7.1 drivers are out and support CoH.

You cannot get higher than low shader quality. Depth of field effects cannot be used, bloom effects cannot be used.
The game might say your drivers are out of date, but the game works just fine.
CoH is more than playable with vista now.

The new emblems are not showing up on female clothing

Emblem Patterns not showing up on females confirmed here too. Not just an isolated issue, I see.

Community, followed by storyline, followed by costumes

We've come for your daughter, Chuck.

I got no performance issues with CoH or CoV with my
AMD Athlon 3500+
2GB Kingston PC3200 Ram
ATI Radeon X800 Pro 256MB AGP
Soundblaster Live! Sound card

I keep it on recommended, and it runs just fine.

If you can explain the powers, it always fits.

Could you post your slotting as a ninja/trick arrow?

I'm having a hard time thinking of how to slot my ninja guy. He is quite fun to play, but also, at level 8, I'm almost out of ideas of what other skills to grab.

In other words, a suggestion of trick arrow skills that compliment ninja. The defender primary guides don't tell much about how it works with ninja, but it does tell how to use them as a troller or fender.
