I think you guys caught all of the deaths. And yes I count miss shapeshifter. She was dead after all. The go juice is just really good at making people all better.

Ignore the previous two messages. It was just a freaky coincidence in both cases. So what was the name of Wesleys coh board again and is it still around?

I'm now in on firefox and may have narrowed down the problem. I went into my security settings and unchecked Block reported attack sites and Block reported web forgeries. Then I clicked on the bookmark and the forum loaded lightning quick. Other people can experiment more with this, and I'll try fiddling around myself later on but right now I need some sleep.

Urgh! This is one of those yesnoyesnoyesnoyesno moments.
I already have about half those comics stuck away in a box somewhere And odds are that Amazon will drop the price by at least 20% more sometime in the next few months.
But then again I do prefer TPBs and hard cover collections to the individual issues. And I don't have many of those.
I think I need to go find a coin to flip. Or a dice. Or maybe I'll go find my big hammer and throw it at something and see which end hits. -
For me the show is good enough to enjoy watching but not good enough to miss if it goes away.
The thing I find funny about it is that the series which was supposed to be more light hearted and family oriented than Heroes has featured a lot more brutal killings. Including several by the heroic family. -
I haven't been able to get to the forums in the last couple of days. This was using Firefox which is my usual browser. Right now I'm using Chrome and the forums loaded just fine. Same thing with IE9 which I tried just to see what would happen.

Quote:I'm not too worried about this and here is the reason. Yes the cgi is pretty obvious but it doesn't look absolutely horrible. Avatar on the other hand I can not stand to watch in 2d because the graphics looks so horribly unrealistic that I can't stay in the movie world. I'm continually kicked out of the story line by the bad effects. But when I saw Avatar in 3d I was amazed at how realistic almost everything looked.Looks better. But there's still a lot of "Look! I'm a real guy in a CGI environment!" aesthetic in there. At some points it is less noticeable, but at others, it just...pops.
I suspect this is because cgi intended to be seen in 3d just doesn't come across as well in 2d because shading isn't being used to simulate depth.
I intend to see GL in 3d and since the cgi already looks much better than anything in Avatar I expect it to be simply amazing in the theater. And at the worst as I said before it doesn't seem to be constantly glaring enough to keep me from watching it in 2d. -
The biggest problem to a resolution is that the series was completely finished filming for the season when they heard they were canceled. And I haven't heard of any reshoots for the final episode. So if they weren't planning on wrapping up that plot line by the end of this season then it's not getting wrapped up.

I was happy with the episode. There is no telling how the communication stones really work so it's perfectly reasonable that the two would appear the first time that the stones were unable to communicate with each other.
On the other hand I didn't like the Greer subplot. I mean I did like it but it moved too slowly in some parts, too quickly in others and didn't really seem to have a reason to be there. I suspect that the writers came up with the River Song story idea but couldn't come up with a way to fill out the entire episode so they came up with a subplot that would neither hinder nor advance the primary story arc. -
You sure about that Ohms? It is my understanding that the actual programs for cityofheroes and cohupdater are actually identical but that the NA ones have the extension .exe while the EU ones have the extension .eu.exe
It is that extension that tells the programs which server to connect to. This may have changed with the change over to the nclauncher through. -
With the high fps but rubberbanding and jumping around of citizens it's pretty much guaranteed to be connection problems. Do as Kitsune suggested and check your latency. What you are hoping to see is a short green lawn. What you will probably be seeing is a tall green lawn with lots of yellow and red patches. Yellow means the ping time is really high. Red means lost packets.
There is also the possibility that it isn't an in route connection problem but rather one with your router. If you can do so then try connecting your computer directly to your modem rather than through the router and see if that eliminates the problem.
And lastly since your problem started around the time you started using the launcher make sure you have the launcher settings (accessed through file>settings) set to exit the launcher when game loads. -
Quote:The podcasts still exist and can be found at http://secretworldchronicle.com/Invasion got it's start as a group of podcasts put together by Misty and several fellow players of COH. They filed the numbers off of COH and make it a bit more generic but really this got its start as delightful roleplaying carried on between a writer and aspiring writers.
Eventually they got enough story for a trilogy and so looked to see if they could sell it anywhere. -
Well. Mine used to be "Level 51 (insert archetype here) looking for gullible team.
Unfortunately Incarnates killed that one. -
Have you run the aura missions on those characters? Purchased auras are available from creation but the older auras have to be unlocked by running the mission just like they always have been.

Looks like your drivers are corrupted. Although all of your drivers both video and audio are showing the exact same nonsensical date and I've never seen that before. Still I would uninstall the video drivers, use driver sweeper to clean them out, then install new drivers.
-
Once again an outstanding episode. If the previous episodes had been even close to the quality of these last 3 then she show would never have been canceled. They are definitely going out with a bang.
I just hope enough people are watching this to get it some follow up like the SG1 movies. -
You got the sequence of events exactly right ThugOne. And I think they did the exterior docking in order to be different from all the other shows with shuttles. Every other science fiction show that has had shuttles has had them dock inside some bay which is a waste of perfectly good space. Space which would be at a premium in a spaceship.
-
I thought it was pretty much on the same level as Skyline. Entertaining enough to watch on cable or dvd but paying to see it in the theater was a mistake. Although I did like the scene with the alien where they are trying to figure out what can kill it. Absolutely brutal.
-
Well, I didn't really have a strong reason for it other than I don't care if my character is just slightly worse off than if I did the respec. Well, that and as others have said the current respec structure makes it a pita.
Now however I have a great reason for not respeccing. To drive you completely and utterly over the edge. Do you might if I global friend you so that I can keep you up to date on which characters I'm keeping the fitness pool on and what powers I'm missing out on as a result of this decision?
Actually I might respec those characters after all but if I do it will be to drop a couple powers in order to take jumpkick and group fly. -
Hi Flash. How about a little background on the issue.
First, has the launcher ever worked for you or is this the first time you've tried it?
Have you tried deleting the current version of the launcher and redownloading and installing it?
Do you have City of Heroes in the standard directory or a custom directory?
It would also help to see the results of these two programs
CoHHelper and Hijackthis
Which might be able to single out what is causing the problem.
Post your answers and I'm sure that even if I don't get to it immediately somebody else will be here posting possible solutions soon afterwords. -
We used to have more skin colors available. But that was changed because of players making their skin and tights colors identical thus creating "nude" characters. Pretty childish on the part of the players (many of whom are children thus excused) and Cryptic for overreacting.
Hmmmm... Maybe now that it's NCsoft we can get the full color spectrum back. -

Quote:Yeah with that second view I'd say it's just a very good homage.No he doesn't. You get better a look of the character at :54 and the costume is very different from Adam Strange. Adam Strange doesn't wear a blue retro jacket, the Stealth top, red Combat Boots, blue goggles, or a Unified Field Facade cape.
Not even close to being dead on accurate. -
I'll repeat what others have said. The director's cut of Daredevil is far superior to the theatrical release. If you've only seen the messed up version you need to check out what the movie could actually have been.
-
Quote:No, what this means is that somehow CoH has gotten permission from DC to use Adam Strange as an in game character. Or else that NCsoft needs to be petitioned. Seriously that is a dead on accurate copy of Adam Strange, just look him up. Just don't use his wikipedia page which has for some reason chosen to use the really horrible current costume. His classic costume was great and has been duplicated quite well.okay so I was just watching video on issue 20 and saw this
which makes me think they might have added them so in that case if they have given us all the jet packs listed above then ignore my request if not then which ever ones they have not, and if that is not a jet pack back piece as a costume part shame on them for teasing.
