Contact me through my Youtube channels listed in my sig. I just uploaded a video regarding the news for people who haven't heard it through here.

I met most of my online friends through my roommate, prior to meeting the person who would become my wife, and he was really into Planetside.
I played Planetside for about a year, and got super excited at the idea of a superhero MMO. I got into the beta and couldn't stop talking about City of Heroes. Nearly ALL of my outfit (guild/supergroup) came over to CoH and abandoned Planetside.
I've been playing CoH ever since, and only took one 5 month break after issue 16. Ultra mode brought me back and I've been loyal ever since.
Today, we get this news. Today also happens to mark the removal of the NDA for Planetside 2. Yes, I am in that beta too.
SOOOO around the circle we go... Unbelievable timing. -
Guild Wars 2 really should be given a fair shot, guys. I picked it up on a whim and it is extremely polished.
It isn't all elves and crap either - you can play an engineer with guns/rifles/traps if you wish.
...but yeah Planetside 2 is on my radar also. The NDA on the beta just got lifted today. -
I've been here since early beta. This is just... I just can't

Understandable. I would give you a hug if possible so here is the best I can give.
/e hug
OH and you know what I'm wearing today and I just realized it? My original purpleish City of Villains Tshirt from launch... That's how much CoH was a part of my life - I just came to expect it to always be around, like EQ. -

I wasn't crying until this. This is touching.

Guild Wars 2 and Planetside 2... and hopefully unofficial servers of CoH.
-
Long term goals...

Could PS get the rights and do a Kickstarter?

Signed.

Castle here and, yes, Justice was my home server since launch.

Quote:BABs? What have you been doing lately man? Isn't this crazy?Originally Posted by Tic-Toc
BABs here. Thanks EG. CoH had a profound impact on my life and being a player and dev for a game that I had so much love for was a part of my life I will always cherish. There were times when my entire working and waking day revolved around working on, playing, or just thinking about this game. It's bittersweet to hear that things are coming to an end.
My thoughts go out to all the people at Paragon affected by this news as well as the hundreds of thousands of players that have come and gone and stayed with CoH over it's long history.
It's a sad, sad day. -
I seriously need a hug. I'll even take one from Reppu.
-
I can't even talk right now.
What happened to the 'secret project' they were working on?
No issue 24 'fix all the things' coming out?
When will the servers be shut off?
Are there going to be any final plans? -
WHAT..... WHAT - no hint of this to us...
Are any of you able to stay with the company elsewhere? Help out with Aion and Guild Wars 2 and such?
I don't suppose the server code will be made available for the thousands of fans?
Issue 24: fix all the things... won't even be released?!
WHAT -
Quote:Ah, thank you. That's kinda weird. I wonder if Synapse/Hawkward are aware of this.Originally Posted by SonicRemedy

Aha! So my KM/EA stalker is even more hax than I thought!

Quote:...currently. I could even see bosses using this as additional threat venues.Originally Posted by Dechs Kaison
We've been told before that the game engine has no way to handle this.
What if we simplified things, and have an ability that causes damage only when you are at a certain health level automatically? That is something we can already do - having effects trigger at varying health ranges. -
Quote:Ah, yeah - it just seemed the responses were to me, instead of to the theoretical layman I suggested.Originally Posted by UberGuy
That wasn't lost on me. But this part...
...suggested a pretty significant misunderstanding of what PPM does. The point in replying was only to try and clear that up, and not in any way to flog you for not being an expert in the minutiae. (Well, it wasn't my point for sure, but seebs and Hopeling aren't usually wicked like that.). -
Quote:There, I highlighted the important part.Originally Posted by JayboH
That sounds so odd to the layman:
-
I think this would be great to see in CoH. I don't know if it would add any additional strain on the system but it would be interesting. Armor sets could use it in place of a damage aura, and it could be part of a buff set even.
Thoughts? -
Ah there we go - suddenly, enlightenment. Thanks gang.
-
That sounds so odd to the layman:
20% chance to go off every 10 seconds. This sounds like it could go off 6 times in a minute - sure, it's highly unlikely, but possible. New version locks it at 1.5 times a minute. -
I'll get back to you on that - hold tight.
-
I never figured out what this stood for.
