    And on the other end of the spectrum, I had an insanely fun Task Force team that was a Scrapper, an Empathy Defender, and SIX Blasters.
    Sort of the WoW equivalent of doing something tough with an Arms Warrior, an Elemental shaman, and six hunters.
    Sure, people died, but death is just a slap on the wrist and we had enough stuff to get everyone back up within seconds to EXPLODE MORE THINGS AHAHAHAHAAA!

    I'd start blabbing more about this game, but.. between Memphis Bill and the in-game tutorial.. I don't think I have anything left to talk about.


    Oh and about travel powers. If you end up wanting to try Teleport, there's a keybind that makes it bearable. Just type:
    /bind SHIFT+LBUTTON powexec_name Teleport
    You hold shift, and teleport straight at the spot you clicked.
    But, I'm more a fan of speeeeed. You learn the layouts of everywhere really well!
    I love the liberty at which you can approach this game, and not forced into some cookie cutter elitist build that forces Math & Spreadsheets upon you...After raiding 25mans in wow, this is a great change of pace... I am interested in the Travel Powers and everyone has different opinions on them, which is good....

    So there is no real LOOT system you are after in the instances, you are not having to roll for gear or anything?

    This way you get to keep everything you have worked on in the trial version of the game.

    And a hearty welcome aboard...

    Will do...And thank you
  3. One last thing and I will stop pestering...

    Flying...Is it the best and only other form of travel outside of on foot and can anyone obtain it?

    Oh yes this is true...The dreaded corpse run..It is not missed..Do you lose anything when you do die, or just go to the hospital?

    While others have mentioned teams and the Trinity mentality, I will add that... just have fun!

    You can make a team of all blasters/tanks/defenders/etc and smash through missions/Task Forces and all.

    Lol Newby is friendlier...

    Okay no addons...nice... This means I dont have to worry about another player having a leg up on me due to just having a better UI/addons... Already enjoying this game...

    I would like to add that the Ultra Settings are awesome, and the game has a real comic feel to it... I also love the idea of not having to LOOT everything I kill..Nice change of MMO pace.....

    Once again thanks for all the help, I will be purchasing the full game tonight once I get home and put the kids to bed...Looking forward to it...You guys made my decision easier...
  6. Well it appears I have a lot to learn, good thing is, the player base seems helpful and the Mentor resource is nice..

    Is there anyway to turn off the auto run feature, I use my mouse to move and it seems that if I hold down my left and right mouse buttons to move that after a few seconds it auto runs which is kinda annoying I would like to stop once the buttons are released...

    Also, does the game support addons of any type and if so is there any you all recommend?
  7. So the help and advise is overwhelming here...Thanks a ton you all.. Really looking forward to getting outta work and playing...

    How are the instances handled, WoW has the Tank,Healer,DPS play..I would guess that is not the case here?
  8. Thanks for the quick replies. I have basic questions in regards to the game. How are groups formed? Are instances, more or less dungeouns that have Bosses and adds? Are the instances real long time wise. What are the rewards you go after in these instances? What is the level cap? These are the basic questions I have. Is the games appeal more then just putting on levels? Can you still get a lot done if you play alone?

    I will read the mentor guide too, thanks again everyone
  9. I just started the demo, I, like many people played Wow for awhile and got tired of it, looking for something fresh... I really like COH over CO and after a couple hours with the demo I am really considering sinking my teeth into this one Any advise a veteran would give a noob who is just getting there feet wet with the game...

    What can I expect from COH, do I have to worry about pugs, can it be enjoyed on a casual level...

    How is the PvP?

    Just the basic MMO questions.. Thanks for any advise, and or help..
