Hey all, I've been playing for a while, and I'm in the market for a new laptop. I'm going to sell my behemoth of MSI GT780DX to my buddy.

So here is my question. Will CoX run on a ultrabooks? I know it's not going to be anywhere near my current laptop.

But lets face it, CoH is getting kinda old. So do you think the intel 4000 hd graphics (integrated graphics) could run CoH?
In the past you would say "no way a integrated gpu could run CoH!" but now... not so sure

I know a lot about computers, but specs are hard to compare sometimes. If anyone has any tips on what I should look for (besides the obvious of RAM, CPU, ect) please let me know.

I'm shooting for "quality" settings.
In theory it should work, but I've ran into odd problems in the past with this game. For some reason the system requirements don't seam to be right. I've seen someone play WoW fine, but then load up CoH and it be choppy even on the lowest setting.

I kinda want to bring in a copy of CoH to the store and ask them if I can install it. :P

If anyone is playing on a Ultrabook (or even a MBA) let me know how it does.
I'll post back if I find any info.

Thanks guys

(I searched to find something on this, but all I found was really old topics.)

Anyway, now that you can buy IOs from the paragon market, is there any plans to go back and look at some sort of cross character storage? I know I can just email the stuff to myself, but that gets a bit clunky and you need to take it out before 60 days.

I think a place to put store bought IOs after you have claimed them would be great. Set it so you can only store so many items across all your characters, and then sell increased space allotments. Just make it a tab on the vault storage or something.

Anyone else have this problem of too much "stuff" and no where to put it? I know I spend a lot of money on this game, but I can't be the only one with this problem, right?

I couldn't find a thread on this, so I thought I would just post my own.

Why oh why can't hand clap take universal damage?
I know it doesn't actually do damage, and I don't think this enchantment should add any. However, I so want to use the KB > KD enchantment on this power.

And in it's current form of knockback hand clap is pointless. No one in there right mind gets it.
This could at lest make it viable.

I doubt it will be changed, but I thought I would add my 2 cents. Anyone else agree?

(I know, I know. If I need to ask I shouldn't do it, but I thought I would ignore that and ask anyway)

Anyway, on Freedom I own the name "Staff Member"
When I made the guy I thought it would be a funny pun. "I'm a member of all the people trying out staff fighting"

I didn't think of it as a staff member of CoH. (as someone pointed out)

Now, I'm a loyal CoH fan, and don't want to get banned or anything. Maybe I'll just reroll, and let someone else have the headach

But if I put in my bio "Not a member of the CoH staff or support" and deffinatly don't plan on pretending to be.

Is there anything in the EULA that says I can't have this name?

Like I said, maybe I'll delete the guy, but it's an interesting question to say the lest.

(PS sorry about the spelling, typing this on my iPad and it won't spell check)

Thanks

Glad you guys liked it!

Hey all, I was bored, and made a small music video for city of heroes.
I've had this idea for the longest time, and thought I would try it out.
Didn't turn out exactly as I hoped, but it was fun.

Anyway, this is my city of heroes music video:

Take me Down to the Paragon City

I was trying to make my wolfs howl "petcom_all e howl"

But got the error "Pet command failed, multiple stances". I'm guessing we can't have our wolfs do emotes then?
I figured we couldn't but wanted to try it out.

Any word on getting at lest some emotes to work?

(Not sure where to ask this, and nothing came up on search)

Hey all, I obviously know why free to play accounts can't trade (gold farmers), but I really wish we could give them inspirations.

I'm not a healer, but if I see someone dieing while fighting in the streets I'll run up to them and throw them a green.
But more often then not now a days you get the "this player can't trade" and you look dumb for running up to them just to run away again.

Am I the only one running into this? I bet it's kinda a pain if you want to toss them a res while on your team, but I haven't ran into this yet.

I dunno, I'm guessing the systems are all tied together so if you were to allow insp trading you would have to allow everything.

Just kinda sucks for people having legitimate reasons to trade.

Woot, Freedom is up!

I don't know what is worse: the servers being down, or the server being up, and can't login.

Internal testing why must you taunt me!?

Hey, Does anyone remember that CoH radio drama following two bad guys adventures?
It was a hilarious story, and I want to relisten to them, but can't remember the name.

My favorite episode invoided the different ways people pronounce names.
(I still call tsoo: "Toe-so", and not "sue")

Anyone remember this?
Thanks.

Nick on the facebook page called it the Pack, Pack.

Very Punny, I like it :P

@Jophiel, I do /e batsmash, it does about the same

Anyway, If we are talking about power pools. How about rearrange a few?
Like, I dunno, Presence?

Swap Provoke, and Intimidate. That's all I ask. Maybe someone would get that power pool now

If you can't remember what they are here is a link:
http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Presence

Wouldn't a single target fear, and a single target taunt make sense? then do the AoEs as the next ones.
I want to play with fear, but I'm not never getting Provoke or Challenge.

If fitness was the most taken pool, then presence has to be the lest. It need s a fix.

That is all.

Have you been in the sewer recently!?

They made it EASYER!
They added drones by the exit, and even added a hospital!

Really guys? We can't walk across the zone to get back to the sewers? We need a hospital?

/rant

Anyway, sewers were silly on 2x weekend

Hey guys, sorry for the long delay on replying.

1st, as for new sounds. I can no longer access the place where I got all my sound files (ftp.coh.com)
So, I can't make anymore sounds unless paragon wiki has some.

2nd, this method is for text tones, and keyboard sounds. You can't change those unless you jailbreak.
You can make ring tones no prob. You can even make them in itunes. (Google making iPhone ringtones in itunes)

I hope to add to my website, but no guaranty.
Glad I could help some people out

[Edit]

Found a few more sounds I had. Looks like I got most of the sounds before the ftp site went down. Let me know if you want anymore, and I'll look and upload them.

Wow, I forgot I made this thread. Give me a minute, and I'll see what I can do...

[Edit]

Ok, I added the .mp3 versions on my site. It was a pain to get them since the original coh ftp site went down
Hope this helps you!

Just a heads up, I would get swap ammo just for the fact it gets rid of the knockback.

Your melee friends will thank you

So, me and my buddy run a SG, with just us in it. (We have a lot of prestige considering that)

Anyway, how do you leaders manage your salvage racks?

Since we had the money, and the space; I have 6 racks each for white and yellow salvage. 3 for tech, and 3 for magic.

Then, those are split up by what level they drop at.
According to this chart:

http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Invention_Salvage_Tiers

So, in the end, I have 6 different salvage in each of the racks, and 5 of those in each. (Giving you exactly 30 salvage in each rack)

It's very organized... for now.
Do you have any suggestion, or am I being too annal?

(PS. If this doesn't make any sense, I've been up all night)

It be fun
Got all my villains ready for blue side. Have to wait till at lest 11pm to work on my other 5 tips.

Some people are complaining that it takes atlest 2 days for you to cross, and that you have to be lvl 20.

I for one, am glad. My fear was 8 man teams of MM in the sewers -_-

Waiting for Gamestop to open so I can get my *cough* 2nd *cough* copy.

Actually, I've bought going rogue 3 times... 2 boxed versions (one for me, and one for my friend)... and the pre-pre-order so I could play with DP and DS

....man, I'm a sucker :P

Oh, this reminds me to post this screeshot.

*clears throat*

Back in the day Icon was a hair cut place:



(Me and a buddy accidentally got under the map in AE when I used shield charge. Guess they never updated this map, lol)
