Great day for a tan...Sunstorm!

Welcome to the forums

Come on in, the water's fine.

Welcome to the forums, Synapse.

I remember when you first started here, Alex. We all treated you like crap because you took over for the departing CuppaJo. I still feel badly about that. You DA MAN! You so totally did your job well. I bet that is why you are moving on now. Because someone else knows talent when they see it. Good luck to you. I will miss you.

PC users will be able to play and team with their Mac friends.

Umm, there are PC users who have Mac friends? Impossible!

Please fix the store so that I can purchase Booster Packs for other players as gifts. I'd like to purchase 10 or so of these for my friends that also play. Plus I'd like to give you my money to help with the development of my favorite game. However, since I only have 1 account and I can't very well purchase 10 Cyborg Packs for 1 account then I guess that I'll have to keep the money that I would have liked to have given to your company.

[/ QUOTE ]
This! I was also prevented from buying Cyborg and Wedding packs for friends as gifts. I estimate at least a 5% loss in revenue because of other people having the same problem!

Edit: Bah, I'm always late.

And with this, I am fulfilled. Been needing extra character slots for over 2 years now. Posi, your implementation schemes for the additional slots is excellent. Thank you so very much.

[ QUOTE ]
So long as they made it optional, and didn't nix the actual sound effects, it would actually be a pretty neat feature. DO WANT.

[/ QUOTE ]
Agree!!

I have a feeling that Stalkers are gonna get a big hairy shaft...

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm actually scratching my head as to what Stalkers could get.



[/ QUOTE ]

As I said, a big hairy shaft.

[/ QUOTE ]
So Stalkers are getting a new Shaft power set?! Cool

Looks like I'll be getting a second account... ASAP to start working towards my vet rewards.

[/ QUOTE ]
It's really not that hard getting established on another server. Not only do your new characters get their Vet rewards, but your Global handle is the same so your friends on other servers can still talk to you.

My husband and I got fed up waiting for additional character slots per server--we have been on Virtue since release--and finally got established on Guardian as well. It's working out great--12 new character slots! Getting a nest-egg on the new server by transferring influence from one server to another through the AH isn't hard at all.

This doesn't mean I'm against additional slots per server though. PLEASE! MORE SLOTS PER SERVER!

What a terrific thread

[ QUOTE ]
I can see certain people getting a really big kick out of this. Host your own in-game wedding ceremony. Brings back memories of 'MUD marriages'. Awesome addition.

But yea, the two costumes shown in the announcement, plus some themed emotes, for ten bucks? Not for me, but I'm sure it will do well without me.

[/ QUOTE ]
I feel the same way. My only concern with this "trend" (and Lighthouse said there will be more of these Pay Packs to come) would be if they included actual content. Charging for a small collection of costume pieces and emotes is one thing, charging for actual content: Access to a Trial or TF for example, would be step in the wrong direction.

[ QUOTE ]
The Rename and Transfer function are so awesome. I can't imagine what else can be added (SG renames?)


[/ QUOTE ]
Additional character slots per server? PLEASE! PLEASE! *gets on knees begging* PLEASE!

Thank you devs for creating the best MMORPG there is. I play them all, often taking a break from CoX for several weeks at a time to try other MMORPG's. I've always come back to CoX and without fail I'm blown away at how great a game CoX is everytime.

[ QUOTE ]
What I mean is that we have no idea what your intentions were behind some of the sets. Like, how is Vibration different than Fore Fields?

There was a Golf powerset?? And I didn't get a chance to vote before the poll came down.

It's always cute when nerds who play MMOs make fun of other nerds who play MMOs.

[/ QUOTE ]
I eat lunch once a week with a bunch of friends who work at Amgen (Thousand Oaks, CA). They spend the whole time talking about their Raiding and general antics in their guild in WoW. I spend the time mocking them (as I am the person who got them to start playing it as an introduction to MMORPG's over a year ago).

[ QUOTE ]
Let Ultimus do his thing.

[/ QUOTE ]
But, but...isn't there a law against that? Oh! you mean in the game, hehe. Sorry

[ QUOTE ]
I prefer the more personal touch that Lighthouse brings as it shows hes more the a Dev, hes a Hero! (or villain)

[/ QUOTE ]
I agree. I'd rather see Lighthouse's human/player side in his posts than his corporate representive side. It's what made CuppaJo and Cricket so special, and what will make Lighthouse fit right in here.

[ QUOTE ]
What genre are you speaking of here, 'cos it's not revolutionising the superhero genre so much as it's basically ignoring it...

[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, there are many CoX fans who love this game, me among them, who don't give a darn about "superhero genre". But I'm sure you already know that, Foo.

*Notices a sudden gush of wind whipping the trees about outside her window when she mentions the name, Foo.*

[ QUOTE ]
I would have picked PvE Combat if that was an option, which it should have been IMO.

[/ QUOTE ]
Same for me. PvE combat and PvE combat on a team are tops on my list.

[ QUOTE ]
You don't think teleporters are important? O.o

[/ QUOTE ]
I was going to say. We have 4 teleports (with 2 destinations each) in our base. With a medibay with a well stocked influence storage unit right next to it so we can restock inspires right there when we rezz in the base. Enhancement storage, salvage storage... And get this, there are only 2 active members in our SG and we earn all the influence to aford that stuff--okay, we are sick fools who play too much, I do agree things should be cheaper so that casual folks can aford these things.

Love it!

Very dramatic, and sad.

*makes a funny face and begins to sing...*

"Oooh, I am loony-toony, titched in the head!"
"Please pass the catsup, I think I'll go to bed!"

[ QUOTE ]
I've heard people call them that. I just dismiss it. I say "characters". If people are too bloody lazy to type "characters" rather than "toons", say "chars", for goodness sake!

[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed. To me, "toons" has always felt derogatory and disrespectful. My characters are not cartoons, they are more than that. They are extensions of me, my imagination, and thus very personal. I look upon the characters of other people the same way. So I avoid the word "toon" when "char" is just as easy to type, and feels far more respectful.

[ QUOTE ]
In fact, my hope is that a lot of people who (like me) have teetered to the powerlevelling side will slow down and group up more in the future, RP more in the future... because there's a dearth of smart players in groups, especially at the low levels.

Either way, I see myself playing CoH for a long time to come - maybe not as much as I do now.

[/ QUOTE ]
Great post Plasma. Your words sum up my feelings exactly.

I don't actually fit any of those 4 MMORPG categories... kind of a little bit of everything. I am an achiever, but not at leveling. I take each mission one at a time (our ability to set difficulty so that a challenge is always had is great!). The achievement for me is in the moment, during that battle, against that one mob who is kicking my team's collective butts. Leveling happens as a side effect of those small achievement goals being reached.
