    Cool, I'll try to make the Freedom one - I think I've got my Super Reflexes tanker on that server (SR tankers seem to be a rarity.) Got crappy ice melee though.

    the shop system is bollocks though, with 99% of its random inventory being lvl 30+ gear. it wouldnt be so bad if every shop wasn't the same, meaning that until you hit ~30 the only time you'll be visiting shops is to sell stuff off (or buy mods)

    also, mods showing up on weapons? nice. I hope they implement that with armor too.


    I think my biggest disappoint is that it falls under the same tired fantasy mmo cliche of

    armor that looks like 3 inch think knight armor with a face grill on males

    turns into a metal bikini on females.


    or a tank top at best.

    Even my level 20 armored up tank shows her stomach.
    Different strokes. Anytime my wife made toons in CoH she tended to make them fairly sexy.
  4. I've never been in one of these, when and where do you guys meet?
  5. Sparkly, did you ever get into IO sets later on?

    What?

    In all seriousness, I regret that apparently my enthusiasm level made Matt Miller more than a little uncomfortable - to the point that the not-sure-if-serious 'stalker' jokes started going around. And I regret not having the savvy to try and behave in a slightly less-me-but-more-publicly-acceptable fashion when it came to fangirling over the game.

    I regret that it took the closure of the game before Black Pebble was finally able to address my longstanding frustration and concern about the lack of advertising for COH.

    My biggest regret, though, is that despite five years of trying, I never made a video that was good enough for Paragon Studios.

    After following you quite awhile on Twitter, I could see the stalker thing coming up, honestly, but I wouldn't have made it a point to bring up.

    Regarding videos, there is a whole legal mess involved with that, no doubt.
  7. Thing is, you have to take Fortify Pack or you don't get the buffs.
  8. Not doing a Hami raid since the original incarnation (other than the Lady Grey version)
    Not getting a controller to 50 (eh not really, I hate them, but love Doms)
    Not getting any epic ATs to 50
    Only being in two active SGs through CoH history
  9. I had one that I got up into the 30s, but other toons distracted me. Dark/Dark - I made him based off of Garak of Deep Space Nine, here to take on the evil Icon monopoly when it came to tailor shops.

    The bolded part is what I'm counting on over all.
    Yahoo uses the Bing search engine now, last I heard.

    Yeah - we were just referencing the 'challenge accepted' part as unlike Dr Aeon, they are system designers.

  15. Video.

    25 years to make.

    Then viciously cut down by the distribution company, redubbed and the original cels thrown away.

    Also, since so many animators worked on this over the year many elements showed up in Disney's Aladdin.

    I'm sure you'll see Jafar's inspiration almost immediately.
    Stunning.
  18. Whew, I'm starting a 'didn't make the list club' right now - who's with me?

    Yeah I'm still waiting on acceptance to the group, according to DA. I'm not sure who runs it.

I had been waiting for a game like this where you could create your own super hero long before it was even an idea.

    BUT I was in CoV Beta. If you notice the CoV box left of the CEs, that is my preorder box. So congrats Jayboh, you've got me beat on that CoH "Presell Disc". :-p
    Woohoo!

    ...but seriously I had tons of stuff that I eventually threw out - some of it is in storage though. Shortly after the announcement I dug this up. I could make an iso image of it if anyone wants it.

    I initially came from Planetside, and I converted nearly my entire outfit (clan) to CoH.

    Holy cow - amazing animation there. That must have taken forever.
