    There's several Free-to-play games on Steam... but, I thought Steam normally wanted a cut of micro-transactions for those or something.
  2. It appears my account was renewed 2 days ago (monthly plan, atm), and I didn't get any Paragon Points (none since the headstart started). No Reward Tokens either.
  3. He'll get everything but the two slots.



    (Incarnate system still requires being VIP to use)

    Might buy a mac!

    Having some settings at the minimum can actually hurt performance in some cases. Can't recall exactly which settings they were, but they are there.

    no tips ?

    Another possibility: You've already gotten the max number of tips in your tips window- or you're just looking at the wrong spot for your tips.

    I'd definitely recommend trying to get another slot (or two) into Resilience as it's now 9.38 res to all (instead of 5 1/2ish res to smethal + 7 1/2 toxic).
  7. This stuff:


    I believe "and more" just means "what the regular tailor does" (yeah, not exactly a major boon).

    I wouldn't consider a 430 a midrange card It'll have no problems running CoH... but it's not a midrange card.


    (and like was already said, it's a driver issue)

    And, they standard capes/auras are then available from the character creator and at any level (not just 20/30+)

    Heh, reminds me of a funny EQ moment... Apparently the game servers all used a DNS server to point to "Feydark" or "Plane of Knowledge"... and it's gone down before. So if you zoned, you d/c'd
    Whenever you're being passed from one server to another, it'd make sense for the previous server to just directly tell you which server to go to. If DNS goes down, though, you've got bigger things to worry about

    Exact same situation on my old trial account.

    In this thread.

    They will be for sale in the Paragon Market sometime in the future.

    This is probably their top priority fix, since it's a horrible UI.
    There's been a number of reports that, at least in some instances, the game will let you double buy something!
  15. Known issue with SoAs. Has something to due with broken costume pieces or something another crashing the game (only skimmed the bug description before ).

    It's not $15, it's 1,200 points (the bonus points from buying points count- unlike the VIP stipend).
  17. Nope. It's something on their to-do list, though.


    (along with having the market inform you of what you've already purchased, and many other things)

    Ranged Knockback

    If the mob is too spread out, that won't work. AoEs don't have infinite size... and sometimes you need to push stuff around to make them all fit.


    I used to have an Energy/Rad Corruptor, and I made quite good use of the KB effects in the energy attacks to keep the spawns focused around the anchor(s). It also had the happy side effect of making AoEs, PBAoEs (toggle or clickie) more effective. A lot of AoE attacks have a fairly small radius, so having the enemies packed tighter helps nicely. Only down side were the energy AoEs often screwing up my effectiveness (if they consistently knocked back, it wouldn't be an issue... it's that it knocks some, but not others!).

    I've been wanting to reroll that character for quite a while... I regret deleting it (energy's damage was fairly crappy, though, which sucked for soloing).
  20. Soon™


    No date has been given, AFAIK.


    Edit: Or, you could just read the announcements

  21. I can't say it either look all that bad to me. The Hero one seems to have the saturation just a tad low, but, really, it's not that bad.

    Give it a week, and I bet 90% of the people that don't like it would have forgotten that it used to be another color
  22. The in-game character creator.


    That's pretty much it.

    Hard controls do nothing to move enemies into patch powers
  24. First, to be sure, when you're selecting "1920x1080 (desktop)", you're clicking okay, then immediately closing CoH and then restarting it?


    If yes, then we go from there

    The difference is that the store is still incredibly immature and doesn't work consistently yet. Doing a bit more looking, it appears to be something that is automatically unlocked for VIPs.


    "City of Heroes Going Rogue" used to be a boxed item, and it included those things. The VIP Starter Kit now includes what had previously been in the box.

    If you buy things on the paragon market, they'll often be packaged differently than in boosters/boxed sets (i.e. the costume bundles vs the old boosters).
