    Wow! They are really changing the face of the game from what it was in the beginning. I can see City of being completely revamped in the next few issues.

    I got the Verto High Resolution GT 220 from PNY, it is the 1024 MB DDR2 that has an HDMI interface and compatible with WIN 7.

    I recently exchanged my Nvidia 9500 for a Nvidia GeForce GT 220 and I was wondering if I made a good choice in purchase. I have read several reviews of the card and not really got the impression it was good or bad. Could I what you all think?
  5. LegionAlpha
    In a way, yes. Now I am off to see if Star Trek is worth my time. I already have a slight opinion but I want to see what others think of it.
  6. LegionAlpha
    How does the GeForce 260 and higher graphic cards look currently? I had someone tell me you can really see CoX's age with the newer cards on the market. I don't know if he was warning me not to get the current cards for the game and play Champions( Which Perfect Pain indirectly convinced me not to) or just blowing smoke.



    Side note: I am sporting a Nvidia 9500 and see no major changes.

    Quick question

    Is the GeForce 9500GT any good for a video card? And can it handle Going Rogue in Ultra Mode?

    I am currently hunting rares now, and I have fought for 3 days and several hours in Recluse Victory beating every minion and boss in the zone with no luck, but on a good note I got a level and cash to get Reactive Armor for my tank. But are rares suppose to be this hard to get?

    That was my intent, sorry for thinking faster than what my hands can type.

    Just so I can wrap my head around GR, at first the Praotians were once the evil goatee universe (STO Mirror Mirror) only to be some how retconned to a more Justice Lords( Justice League TV show), why the change? I thought the evil universe thing kinda sounded cool and had characters ready for it. I just don't understand why it had to be more the "reluctant leader" thing over what was established. I know this kinda post is hitting on old news but after reading the background of Tyrant, it made me think to bring this up.

    Before the background I thought the jerk wanted to somehow grab for power in a world that had no real leadership or order to him, and morality was almost nonexistent in his mind ( like Rorschach), I got that impression after 6 issues of the comic series and when opportunity knocked to shape the world with his ideals of right and wrong he was all over it. Why do we need another hero we need to relate to on some level? Whats wrong with just having an universe that is just evil or Age of Apocalypse verse?
  12. LegionAlpha
    Can we have the intro music to GR be this please....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl5zw6fGjdA
    Not a Rick Roll.
  13. LegionAlpha
    There will be a City of Heroes and Champions crossover event.
  14. LegionAlpha
    I noticed that no one uses Aegies(sp) in their builds. I thought with the Psionic resistance it would be a great set. Cause originally I used it for temporary U. and Unyielding before Reactive armor took it's place.

    Just curious.
  15. LegionAlpha
    Stupid question when is Q1 release in terms for games? March, April?

    I always feel as tho I am letting someone down when I think about taking a break, but that's just me tho. But after so long and no new news about GR I am really bummed and burned out by the lack of info or truly new.

    My two front teeth and a rock.

    Did I finally get it right? I figured I wanted STRONG survivability as well as power and I think I got it right.

    A friend a sometime ago told me I could get a computer that would run (current then) CoH for about $550, so I saved up enough for that price he told me. Did not think I would be buying a "awesome" computer that will "take Going Rogues lunch money" between a $1000-$1500.
  20. LegionAlpha
    I was looking around a few computer stores, getting prices getting a idea of what to buy to get ready for the new Going Rogue and other one other MMO. I showed them what I was looking for and all they could tell me that a good gaming computer would cost me roughly $1000 to start and I was thinking that is insane. Is that the cost of a new computer these days?

    I wanted to add that last 2.4% damage resist to the build. Like I said I was going for both power and defense in mind but along the way got distracted.
  22. LegionAlpha
    As for bonuses, I did not think to add for bonus and wanted to make a soft cap in mind with little money spent as possible. Any tips to take slots away? wait....You said Resist Damage. Okay thanks

  24. LegionAlpha
    In my haste after using the Villain designer I think I may have slotted wrong because I second guessed myself thinking one would work better or give more HP. I hand wrote this since I did not save any information. Could someone critique this build and tell me what I may have missed because I teamed with another invul. and they had looked like they had better build than me in a mission we did.




    Primary: Super Strength

    Punch: 3 Mako, 3 Smashing haymakers

    Haymaker 6 Mako
