    COX Lore

    I am the LLOOORREE



    sorry just couldn't stop my fingers from pressing buttons.
  2. Horse gate shut anyone

    To me this is an over reaction anyone with half an inch of commen sense would have seen this coming. The US and the EU boards were full of players openly talking about farms and what they were going to make. That was the time to say NO STOP we will sanction any farms.

    To do so now and punish those who had the imagination to come up with the farms (yes imagination did you see the riki com officer being a farm) is hypicritical. There the ones that desighned it this way not us.

    They should own up to ther own mistakes not take it out on the players.

    In there position I would have said ok we made a mistake lets look at the exploites and nerf them. I.E cut the xp give by one group. Or why not have decreasing xp for all groups. The more you fight 1 group the less xp. Just a couple of ideas.
  3. Sorry but I don't click the face's I write the thing as () so as thats the face that comes up when I type () I have to asume thats what it means.


    You try it

    So i gather you want me and everyone else on the EU boards to be insulting and prejudicial with your "don't knock it untill you try it" comment.

    Any yet you want the developers to turn up here 24/7 and give you respect. Hmm i see a problem here.

    If you don't see a problem with this then i believe that the idea of an EU community is beyond hope and that the proposed board merger cannot come soon enough.

    1st of the don't nock it until you try was a tongue in cheek joke hence the :P

    As for my personal view on all the junk that gets spouted on hear and lets face most any public forum's you come across. Take with a pinch of salt as the saying goes. I'm sure the devs will as they come across as having a modicum of sense at times.

    You will find that most of us aren’t real prejudicial towards Americans apart from the stupid minority. We do however like taking the micky out of them as we do of our selves.

    The fact that some of us (me included) feel let down by the devs on the states side. Doesn't mean we don't respect them for what they have achieved in the past. Currently however the lack of information the lack of "respect" if you will from them to there EU customers is what drives the malcontents.

    It would not take much for this to change, just 1 dev coming on to our boards say once a week or even once a month just to say hi we haven’t forgotten you.

    Them giving us a time table for the improvement of the forum. Even a reason for why it hasn't been improved yet would be nice. This small thing would stop a good 50% of the complaints alone. (50% is a bit far fetched as FFM has stopped posting as much :P) Another small thing what would it take for the guy posting the update notes on the US boards (or anything else for that matter) to copy past and post hear. If you look you will fine most updates and information poster here is done by forum members trolling the US boards (No this not a pop at the guys on this side of the pond not doing there job and posting things. As who’s going to go in to post stuff at some ungodly time in the morning)

    This lack of any sort of interaction between the DEV's and it's EU customers has been going on for along time and is the main reason for complaint's.

    There will be devs on EU Training Room. One of the competitions is global, there's a US-only competition, and an EU-only competition.

    Avatea and myself should be kicking around on the Training Room as well.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Can I suggest if a Dev does turn up that we try our best to be happy, welcoming and witty? Whinging diatribes about how unfair it is being on the EU servers will not help, and will make us all look like selfish, self absorbed, pathetic children...

    I just find it sad that the only offical mention so far has happend on the us side.


    I persoanly think they will stick in a new cossie as none came with i14 and they have said revist what CoH does best, Well cossies is what it does better than anyone else.
  8. Mad_Mud

    I14 extras?

    2 ways of looking at i14 and the story thingy

    1. get serious make gret story arcs and hope they get publish or picked up by the dev's.

    2. A bit of fun use names of toons in your sg/vg or nick names of friends in game and then take the mick out of them in an arc or just a 1 of mission.

    The intrest will ware of fairly quickly for most of us. But will provide some fun which is what games are for. Oh just thought of another arc I could do attack of the nerffs or captue and lock up a dev before they get to the nerf bat :P

    I14 extras?

    realy have to work in a moaning smurf somewhere :P other than london that is.
  10. Mad_Mud

    I14 extras?

    though origanly not a big fan of the story creater thing. It wa saved by being able to create you own enemy group. The down side to this is the more of these you create the less content you can make as created enemies use up a lot of file space. Can't see me making to meny arcs aimed at the genaral players but will make a few aimed at taking the micky out of friends.


    have 1 story arc full of smurfs so much fun to have an army of smurfs to fight. In another created and army of little green men with bulging brains. Not sure ho long this will keep me going but my intrest may last to I15
  11. You will have to be 5ft a blue to fit in to my story line :P


    mmmm I wonder if I can change th size of the entance so only smurfs fit?

    I didn't realise PvP'ers made up that substantial portion of the playerbase?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Probably not but but if you lose a portion of players who lets face it ran most of the farms so they could get there latest pvp toon up. Plus the majority of pvp players had more than 1 account (1 I know had 5). So you may hanve a limited number of players leave but you could say between 2 times or 3 times that number of accounts. So if you say PvPers them selves are only 5% of the population, but infact could hold 10% of the accounts (just an example as no real way of knowing the exact number), But this is realy just the tip of the iceberg as PvPer's have friends who don't class them selves as PvPer's but team with members of that community. Who see friends leave then decide it's time to go and so on. If a clearly dedicated bunch as the PvPer's were decide to leave then the knock on effect isn't just felt with in that groupe.

    SS and WP

    [ QUOTE ]
    I loved to play CoX for a long time now and i always loved the diversity of powers, but lately its starting to get dull.

    95% of all brutes are SS/WP.
    There is really no reason to roll other combos apart from SS/WP, since SS is the best st AND aoe damg primary and WP is by far the best seconadry.

    ALL other primaries and secondaries suck compared to those 2.

    I am no fan of nerfs but SS needed a nerf a long time ago, like reduced radius of FS and non stackable rage.

    Nothing comes close to WP in survivability.
    Granite tanks/brutes have to deal with - rech, - dmg and almost no run speed to compensate the lvl of survivability.

    WP has even better survivability with NO downsides at all.

    I know ppl dont like nerfs but its a question of balance and reason.

    IMO those 2 sets need to be toned down in order to not make others set meaningless.


    P.S: I got a SS/Wp too :-)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If this ever happened it would be another reason to leave in my book. The nerfed my eng/wp brute i used to love and who comes out rarely so nerfing wp will finish this toon off my only other brute I enjoy playing is my ss/fire. if you then go and neff this bye bye brutes for me. As I'm a big fan of melee and prefer villains to heroes my playing time will come down to such an extend it would not be worth me playing at all.

    Calling for nerfs on 2 sets because they are the currant flavor is not the way to as it will effect more than just the toons you are aiming at.

    It would appear form your stating that you love this game and as a lover of this game you should want others to stay not pee them off to such an extent they leave.

    I know some others threaten to leave at a drop of a hat but you can check my other post and you will see that I have never wanted to leave even after the [censored] with eng.

    Anyone calling for a nerf on anything is bound to get the forum hopping mad. If this was your real intent rather than a assassination of others fun then you have achieved this puerile attempt at winding other forum uses up.

    thats just pure evil


    can i come to ?



    on a another note you tried killing any type of ncp in a pvp zone lately. Bosses feel like avs so avs will be tougher than you expect with the new pvp restrictions.
  16. down side all those americans

    up side eeer we would lose ghostrapter (that is an up side isn't it)
  17. A new intensive arc with new baddies. Don't care what lvl range so long as its a story arc with a lot of new missions in.


    New tf/sf and make the roman 1 more enjoyable by fixing he lag on the hill mission.


    Trials for villains or even open up trials from hero side to villains. Would love to do Eden with one of my MM's.
  18. not been mentioned but how about chains ghost rider and spawn. While were at it rather than morphing in to other builds how about shrinking and growing i.e gaintman antman atom to name a few. Could be used to sneak like a stalker or to be a tank/brute.


    As for 5th I'm happy to wait and see but what is nice is to see players looking forward again.
  19. I do hope it's tomorrow even though im on lates and won't be able to play much.


    Warhammer is getting boring already sigh to much like wow. Good job I only paid for a 1 month after my free month ran out.
