...if you are a lvl38... anything... and braodcast: "how do I get Radio (or newspaper) mission?"

...if you join a PUG with your lvl42 PB and ask what everyone means by shouting quant right before you faceplant... like a dozen times!
EDIT: that could be a purchased account too, he had 3 vet badges. -
...if you join a STF, quit accidentally, then argue that you CAN be reinvited 'cuz that's how AE works!
True story! -

Quote:Ah! Well, SWEET then!If you look on the Titan forums, there's a mostly-updated version of Mids available. Additionally, a fully updated, tweaked version is in beta testing, to be released hopefully soon. (No promises on deadlines.)
I take my last statement back in that case. -
Quote:this... except the Mids part, it's out of date right now.I generally use TOs until about level 12 and then swap to common invention origins. I replace the common IOs every ten levels until I start buying sets. I find this much less hassle than messing around with dual and single origins.
Once I reach level 30 I start buying sets. I always create a build in Mids Hero Designer. I find it invaluable for choosing sets.
I never replace set IOs with the same IO at a higher level. The reason is that level 35 IOs tend to hit the ED soft cap. Upgrading them to 50's makes virtually no difference. It's worth replacing level 20 set IOs but I don't bother with them in the first place.
I will occasionally replace a cheap set by a more expensive one when I'm rich enough. I might do this with 1 set in a build.
This strategy can be surprisingly cheap. Most sets are not very expensive. They're even cheaper if you leave bids in for a day or two and bid on a range of levels. I get most of my IOs for between 50k and 300k and rarely pay more than 1 million. The only exceptions are the 4 or 5 high value uniques in each build but you can skip them.
I you want to be really cheap just frankenslot. It's almost certainly cheaper than using SOs 'cos they never expire. -
Quote:Hang on... That might not be entirely true...This is incorrect. The updater will resume downloading where it left off the last time it was downloading something. The only time it starts over is if it is "FIXING" or "VERIFYING", as these are done on your computer (you're not downloading anything) and must be completed in one go.
I got a new laptop a while ago and it came with Vista, which I was not too familiar with and I had the same problem.
Here's what I did...
Go to the NC Soft website: http://www.cityofheroes.com/account/...of_heroes.html then select the link to the correct Client that you want. DO NOT CLICK IT! You have to right click it and select "Save Target As..." and save to the desk top. Once that is done (should be emmediate) go to desk top and right click that icon and select "Run as Admin" and it shoud work just fine.
Again, this is what I did when I had a problem with the client download. Hope it helps. -
