Back when the Wii was new, I went to Best Buy almost daily trying to get one.... this was after the holidays. I finally got some news that a shipment of 10 Wii's were going to a particular store and the day they would arrive.
I went to the store and waited for 4 hours. I was there before the shipment arrived. Everyone there had even asked me if I needed help with anything. I told them what I was waiting for.
The store shipment arrives and after about 2 hours I ask one of the mangers if they could get me a Wii as I had been there a good part of the day. He went back to see about getting me one. A short while later a CSR came up to me and said that they did not get any and that I should try in the afternoon tomorrow as another shipment was to arrive.
No big deal.
So I come back the next day. Went to a clerk and asked if the shipment had arrived, he said yeah but all the Wii's had come in the night before and all sold out within 10 minutes.
Needless to say I was PO'ed. I wanted a freaking Wii. So I called Best Buy and they said they could not make any exceptions for me as it was a hot ticket item. I explained that I had waited patiently and the store employees had lied to me. They then offered me $500 dollar gift card for my inconvience. I took it, and that was the last $500 I spent in Best Buy.
I didn't even get to use the $500 for a Wii either. -
knock yourself out, so far I have had zero request. just crafting lvl 50 stuff and crashing the market is all I'm doing.

Hey all, just wanted to post that I will be on hero side, creating IO's for the next hour or so. If anyone wants anything, let me know. There is no charge for this, but tips are welcome (tips = influ and or salvage), but they are not required.
I'll be in Steel running to an from the University. Look for me there. If you need some IO's at any other time, just send me an IM in game, if I'm able to I"ll hook you up.

I had a great time on that tf. And I got another badge for the villian, always a good thing. Sorry that I just now found out it was a costume themed TF. I was that one guy, from you know that one comic from....that one place. Yeah you remember.
-
I got the badge last night, even after a horrible network crash on my end. Completly crippled my wifi router. Had to get the spare out. When I crashed I had a team of 7. Took me about 15 minutes to log back in and the team was still there minus 1.
Honestly, I am still amazed they waited for me and this yet again confirms why Protector is the best server.
Thanks again to all that helped assist me in getting that badge.
Now onto the next....Tournament Victor and Arena All-Star
So who wants to let me wail on them for 2 badges. Probably not Stalemate, as this would put me just 1 badge under him. -

So if 7 of you would be willing to give me about 10 minutes of your time I'd greatly appreciate it. I do have a AE mission that I have that times out 5 missions that I created. Thanks in advance.

I'd have to guess but I'd say mine was close to $3000, I bought one of my SG members CoV for a gift.
I had 3 accounts running for a while.
When I started playing this game, I was recently divorced, and was rasing my daughter alone. She was 3 at the time. Now I have an 8 year old, almost 9. Remarried, have a son that is 2, and an older daughter 13. All but the 2 year old wants their own account, and even he wants to play the "good guy" game. So far Lego Batman is all he needs.
So, DEVS. um can we get a lifetime offer. I'd so pay for that.
Oh I forgot to add 2 different laptops and 1 new computer, probably in the 5 to 6k range then. Curse you for making me need to buy a new graphics card for the upcoming expansion >( -
I was more referring to importing MP3 music or the like from artist. Now if we could use the pre-existing music, heck yeah.
-
Hey I would love the idea to import music in, but unfortunatly so would the trial lawyers. I'd think Cox would stay away from it just to make sure they wouldn't get sued.

Question for people that had the problem exiting Lord Winters realm and arriving outside the map:
- Was it Heroes only, or did any Villains experience it?
- Did you exit by clicking on the portal, or did you wait for the timeout to kick you from the zone?
- Did you just enter the first instance and stay there, enter the second and stay there, or enter the first and then transfer to the second?
- There was a short period when entry to the second did not work at the white present. Did you try and enter the second zone during this period and fail?
1. Heroes only, didn't get a chance with Villians
2. Waited for timer to end.
3. 1st
4. n/a
Thanks and great event. BUG HUNTER BADGE FOR EVERYONE!!! -
boot bug at end of successful completion ended up underneath steel loc 2451.2, -2000.0, 1354.9

Got the best....."stuff" on the market.
-
I'm still at a loss, was there really this much demand for this feature to be added? I still do not see, any benefit other than strutting your stuff on the catwalk under atlas.
-
I bought 2 unopened boxes with the intent on playing against others, unfortunatly I was the only one to buy the cards in my area. And to reply to Forbin, when I get bored of the game, I just stop playing but keep my account open, which is what I'm doing now. I love Coh, but atm there isn't much to keep me playing.
I would hope that, if they were to add this to the game, that they would not add any badges, just have it as a stat base. 1 win 50 loses, stuff like that.
Pocket D would be a cool place to have it instead of the arena, could set up a card playing room in there and have Lord Recluse and Statesman playing against each other.
Though if they were to do something like this, from a marketing view point, I would at least put the card game in as an, if wanted, feature like the booster packs. $10 gets you a starter for series one and so on. They could sell booster packs if they wanted to, but I think it would be fun to get them as salvage drops.
By adding the feature as an a purchased item, that would at least let the people who wanted the feature to earn them as salvage drops and those that didn't would get drops as normal. We all know that rare receipe drops are bad, and to add another loot type item would be that much more frustrating for those that didn't want it.
But yes, no badges. I'm a badge collector as well, but that would be overkill. -
oh please don't misunderstand me, I know it would take time away from other much needed stuff from the game, yet it would be a fun distraction in game.
-
I thought the reason they were split was, heroes would not purchase pinched goods, and villians wouldn't bother looking for something honestly. But yeah combine them, maybe there should be an deflation cost or something depending on which side is spending more money server wide. Inlu is up $2.00 while Infamy is down $1.20. That way villians could buy stuff at a higher lvl.
Hmm maybe with GR we will have a influ amount and an Infamy amount.
Or maybe we should be allowed to have an atm machine in game so we can just store our money there, at a 10% loss for all our characters server wide, so that any of our alts could just grab some money and buy their crap rather than doing an influ transfer between peeps. -
Some of these rewards are lame, like ooo I have a boxing outfit, sure glad I waited 33 months for that, this just completed my character. But then I have no idea of what I would offer other than uber unfair powers, which is why I'm not working for NCSOFT or Paragon studios and just playing. Vet rewards are just more badges for me to get and other than that, really don't have any affect on whether I stay with the game or not. Would like a 5 year vet reward that was seperate from the other vet rewards.

"Dear NCSoft and development team,
Despite my failure to keep my subscription active in order to qualify for veteran rewards, and thereby depriving you of between $30 and $45 for each three month period, I believe you should sell me those same rewards for $3, a discount of 90% or more, and allow me to access them immediately. The fact that everyone else has had to pay that $30-45 and wait for up to five and a half years for their veteran rewards should not, in any way, sway your decision.
In short, gimme stuff, and thanks for being stupid, gullible and terrible at math and finances. Suckers.
Love,
BB"

No.
I applaud you. -
Let me start of by saying I strayed from CoH lately. Curiosity got the best of me and I deceided to try out Star Wars. I havn't play it since about a week before the 1st expansion came out as I had already been converted to CoH.
But having played the new (and I believe improved SWG) I only have one suggestion that I would love to see added to CoH.
So let me begin.
What the heck happened to the City of Heroes card game? Did I miss other expansions that came out, is it being played and where. Those are my questions.
Here is my suggestions.
Back to Star Wars, they allow you to play Star Wars card game seperatly from the Star Wars MMO. This about everything else bout the game I found amazing. Why don't we at least have the ability to play the card game for CoH? It wasn't that bad of a card game, and it could be an added perk to Veterans.
Star Wars, gives out new booster packs for Veteran milestones it seems. CoH could easily do the same. Also as an added "loot" drop, we could find random cards while defeating enemies.
The arena would be a great place to hold card contests. We could sell or trade our cards that are found with our friends or at wentworths.
That's all I have, sorry if this isn't the most thought out, or researched suggestion. I don't know the logistics of adding the card game to city of heroes nor the time it would take to do such a thing, or even if there is a demand for it. Just something I'd like to see.
Anyways, forgive me for straying.
Jerikko - Protector. -
I'd also like to be able to go into the prison and see how many baddies I've put behind bars, but then again, maybe not.
I'd like the ability that all our alts count as 1 person for the sg we belong to instead of taking up space for other possible members. Of course give us the option to leave said SG with an alt if we choose to.
I'd like for all TF/SF givers to get new TF's. Seriously after 5 years, they have to have found something else for us to do.
I side story of CoL.....City of Lawyers, where you can sue Heroes for damanges done to clients that were saved and didn't want to be.
Dodgeball in the arena.
Also implement the City of heroes card game into the game. I have no idea what happened to it, the only place where I live that plays card games stopped selling them as I seem to have been the only one buying them. I'd love to see us "win" decks when completing story arcs, getting vet rewards, or reaching lvl's, and for badges. we could sell them and trade in the auctions. -
Since PVP was introduced, I'd love to see a zone that played out like;
Smear the guy with the football. I PC'ed the name of course.
Build a fairly flat zone that contains a randomly placed item of power, every 30 minutes the item appears in a new area in the zone. The item itself is protected by a forcefield and the last person to hit the forcefield becomes it.
It being he/she "Gains" incredible power to health and stamina, but also to all attacks. The goal for the person that is it of course is to hold on the the item of power as long as possible, every 3 minutes his/her power increases again if not defeated.
For a rough example, a lvl 50 becomes and instant lvl 60, 3 minutes regains health and stamina and becomes lvl 70, 3 more minutes lvl 80, then 90, and finally lvl 100. Think, "I am Hami type strength"
The person that was it would lose the item of power 2 ways, 1 being defeated, 2 surviving for 15 minutes.
The last person to hit the person when either of these are accomplished then becomes it.
Of course there would be badges, and some kind of perma ability if one were to survive for 15 minutes. Badges for total time in zone, and for PVP kills.
The player that was just it would have a 5 minute timer placed on them to make it fair for others to be it, and you could only be it a total of 2 times per hour.
To be extra nasty through in some Cot, Nem and Rikti and they also could possibly get the IoP as well.
That's my wish anyways. -
Oh I agree, the chances of 3 issues going live before GR is released is a bit of a stretch. But I do believe that my question is at least valid. Yes GR is awesome, I'm excited to get my hands on it. Yet it seems, at least from everything I have so far seen, that this was the only new thing discussed at the Hero Con. I just had hoped that at least i17 was discussed as well. A side note as it were. If it wasn't talked about, then it wasn't talked about.
