Supergroup Base Repricing
Base Salvage is being replaced with Invention Salvage and all Base room and item prices are being adjusted to more accessible levels. Remaining base salvage can be traded in for invention salvage, or can continue to be stored in base and personal storage.

Thats not the base overhaul i was hoping for.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nor me, and I’m off to lock down the bins before they empty out (and sell everything before the AH/BM is swamped).

[/ QUOTE ]

When i think about it you have to wonder why instead of that half baked salvage change they couldnt have sorted out base permissions.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I’m guessing (still hoping actually) that as it’s now I14 that is called Architect there will be base stuff in there as well. This kind of answers @Shockwaves thought as well as I did note the bit about I14:

More details to come!


[/ QUOTE ]

As in I14 already has lots of stuff planned for it and now the mission designer is being added to it.

And before anyone grumbles Multiple Builds looks cool as well. Nice idea. I'd guess PvPers will find it useful, but I'll be having a play with it as well to swap between team and solo sets.

(Anyone lend me some influence for all those extra IOs I'm going to need?)

I'm just waiting for someone to cough PL about the Levelling Pact. I'll await the details, but that sounds good for me as a casual player who plays with a few other casual friends.

edit: Wanted to get in there first for once and didn't read it through. Spelling amended.

[ QUOTE ]

I said it before and I'll say it again: my mains are named Blueberry Rabbit and Macaroon Hare . No other modifiers needed or wanted. There are reasons for those names. If they were to be changed in any way, well, I'd be here until my subscription ran out.

Amended because I’m feeling mischievous and trying to avoid some work.

Or, to give an actually valid answer: no, the way the temporal mechanics works in this game, if you went back to when Dinosaurs were, you'd never be able to get back to now.

[/ QUOTE ]
This assumes:

1) The in character explanation of temporal mechanics is entirely truthful

2) There are no alternative mechanisms available.

3) Dinosaurs can't be brought forward in time to meet us in the more recent past (or present, or future!).

4) Cloned dinosaurs won't ever appear.

[/ QUOTE ]

All this talk of dinosaurs in the future has reminded me of those 1980s storylines in 2000AD. So far I’ve resisted the temptation to go open my boxes of back issues, but lunch is looming.

Lord of the Rings Online: Teaming happens on a purely ad-hoc basis, aside from end-game dungeon runs. Teams tend to form when a couple of people in an area have the brains to notice that they are competing for scarce resources (and in LotRO scarce is almost non-existant). They break up immediately after. If you're not in a raiding guild and kitted up to the best available you have exactly no chance of ever seeing the inside of any of the raid dungeons, let along completing them.

Has it really got that much like WoW with the right kit etc there?

[/ QUOTE ]

You can still play it if a few of you are friends and make an effort to play together, but that’s the same for any game. Mostly it’s like WoW, but with Hobbits.

I’d agree with Carnifax, get a card for the PC and avoid the USB dongles as they just aren’t as good.

If you still want to run on a wireless set-up then get an up to date router. I’ve just gone for a new one (my old one was a Netgear 802.11g which crashed every few days and I now have a 802.11n) and my connections are now flawless and my range is a lot better.

Still wireless networks aren’t perfect in the same way that cell networks aren’t, and both are quite mature now so we might as well admit they are always going to have some problems. If there are a number of you connecting and you’re getting drop outs and can’t live with them get a wire. If that’s not possible try one of the power line network thingys, although some CAT5 is cheaper and I’ve never tried the power line connections, so I’m not willing to say they’re better.

CoX is continuously in the top ten rankings on most game sites and while there aren’t the same population levels as there were at start-up very few games manage this.

Pressure will only be applied to this when other super hero games get launched and that’s not until the middle of next year. The good thing about this is that it is putting some pressure on NC to ramp up CoX development.

Excellent. Now there just needs to be a cartoon about griefing roleplayers.

I’ve been using Vista (32 bit) since about October on my main machine and it is very nice.

I also have a NVidia card and I do get the driver response crash, but it is normally about one per month and if I reboot it doesn’t happen again. (However, keep in mind that CoH is the only game I play and I only play this for a couple of hours each week, and the crash always happens when playing CoH.)

I’m happy to say I did my bit on both sides of the coin. (And not both sides of Coin_ as I suspect that would be upsetting, certainly for him, if not me. )

[/ QUOTE ]

Ditto. Erm... to at least one part of that (I'm getting less and less balanced on which side of the coin... erm... yeah, Coin_ I'm on now.... erm... ooooh look, a pony)

[/ QUOTE ]

A pony? Does it have a single horn on its head?

Opps, slipped in to Stasisesque there.



Oh, there I go again. I’ll get my cape.

It was already precariously balanced on top of two other threads that had been put in to the sidings after derailment, so it was never going to stay on the track for that long.

All US account holders get free banquets as well.

That’s not a legal hand, you’ve been playing with satire up your sleeve. I demand a data mine.

Inspired by Angelsaber’s sig', here’s some stat’s:

CoV is the 7th highest ranked game on MMORPG.com and only 0.22 behind 2nd place. (Higher than WoW).

CoH is in the top 10 most popular games on MMORPG.com. Very close to the same level of hits as other long standing games, including WoW.

No problem, here's the link to one of the recent threads about replying to tells and manners. [linky]

(I’m so glad I booked marked these. Saves me running searches every time. )

This thread covers a lot of the discussion rather well and even has some stat’s. Worth a read. [linky]

Hope that helps.

It does make me chuckle (and this isn’t aimed at anyone as I’m just as bad) that we spend months saying we needed to be told something about the new issue and then when we get told something we say it’s not enough information and only weeks later we’re saying we need to know more.

Maybe we should not have been told anything in the first place and left to stew in our own speculation.

You have my sympathy.

I’ve not had this one happen to me, but I have a friend who is well known for falling asleep while playing the game. Playing a Tank and falling asleep mid-fight is not too bad, but now he’s playing a healer. I feel lots of face planting or running for the door about to occur.

i'm looking forward to those Day Jobs (and badges)

[/ QUOTE ]

As with the non-combat pets, I think some of my characters will really suit the job titles, whereas others will not be bothered at all.

(When I first saw the pets I wasn't that fussed, but by the time I got them I found both the my female toons wanted the cute little mechs (Milly (Sonic) has one called Mr D (named after Dobbie the House Elf), and Miss Atom called hers Izzy).)

This thread and the link(s) within it should answer your questions. [linky]

And, no, nothing more that anyone is saying about.

I'd have loved that tank.

Wow! I’ve never seen a GM live before (they’ve always been on chat). If they all have characters that are that cool how do I bork a mission enough to get one to visit me?

Nice.
