    In fact, if they ever did raise the level cap, I would probably leave.

    You know, considering some of the very recent arguments for and against this, I wholeheartedly support this now. In fact, it should be implemented today!!!!

    Yeah, could be a great fear-based set!, your toon stands round the corner from the mobs with a strong light.

    1. Junior school? That's not even right. It's not even British or American. It's called...urm...primary school.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    In Scotland yes. In many areas of England too. But the Junior School label is used in many places down south.

    It's a promising story. I actually quite liked it, in a Golden-agey comic book kind of way. Keep writing.

    Funny I live in Scotland and we call it primary school.



    [/ QUOTE ]

    Try reading the post before responding. I was agreeing with you!

    [ QUOTE ]
    Also in the national news for all of Britain they call it primary and secondary schools.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Uh huh. Again, no denying that fact, but a lot of schools, particularly in the south of England are known as Junior schools.

  6. All the best in whatever the future might bring for you. And just remember, you rule the roost, not the crazy man who decided to move in with you

    That's not new, read a newspaper or watched the TV?



    [/ QUOTE ]

    Nope. The Metro doesn't count as a newspaper and unless it's Doctor Who or a DVD, my telly is rarely on.

    Someone managed to get a team? Why isn't this the headline on the main site?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Because everyone apart from yourself only likes depressing news! At least, it seems that way from recent threads.
  9. Let's see:

    My online name like forever, so easy choice.

    Fugitive Hunter

    I wanted to get the fact across that my character stood for Truth, Justice, Bail Bonds. He's been around nearly as long as...

    Truth-Bot

    Terrain Reclamation Unit by Tracey Hollander - a really bad acronym, that just happens to belong to my oldest and dearest character - the fact that he happens to be completely robotic AND a mutant is just awesome (Mutation Enhancements were easier to find on the list back in I2!

    That of course led to

    Lie-Bot

    The Lethal Interception & Exterminator Bot. TB's thematic oppposite.

    Recent names include -

    The Happy Assassin - Harlequin on Steroids, basically. She's so happy with what she does, but I'm starting to run out of puns every time I do an Assassin strike.

    Knowledge Seeker

    Seeking knowledge, one arrow at a time

    etc. etc.
  10. MSN, Media Player, Firefox or IE, second run of COH/V for those inf swapping situations.

    Question

    I think having the headline in the gaming world "NCSoft forces people to change their Hero names" at any point in the next year would be really dumb, since the competition can then just go "Come to our world, you can have your name and keep your character (more or less).

    It would (in my opinion) be a fairly stupid thing to do just as the competition is arriving.

    I'd have to admit, I'd keep playing, but only because of all the characters I care about, I have their names on the other server, so would find it quite easy to delete the one I did not want.
  12. There are rumours going around that BT has switched on their Phorm system in the UK and that bandwidth is taking a hit, despite it only being a trial again (and no one seeming to know anyone who has been invited to it).

    It's probably not that, but you never know. How that would have an effect on others in the EU though, I don't know.
  13. [ QUOTE ]
    Probably worried about the -def in Unyealding. I doubt they where an experienced player.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    When I first started playing, I didn't take Unyielding, because the description said I'd get hit more.

    It took me until level 28 to complete the respec to get it, after some friendly advice from someone on the US servers.

    It's possible they were like that. Luckily, post I13 that problem should be solved (minor though it is)
  14. You don't get a 5th costume slot at level 50.

    In order to get the 5th slot, you must go see Annah in Croatoa (near the station) and give her 4 bits of Halloween salvage (obtainable from the event or the Auction House)

    In Villains, the costume unlock person is right next to the SG base exit in Nerva

    I prefer Flamethrowers TBH... mainly as then they groan and scream at the same time.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You've not read the Zombie Survival Guide then, which tells us that since it takes so long to burn through to the brain, all you're doing with a flamethrower is turning the zombie into a walking napalm bomb?

    Crossbow to the head is the easiest and safest way to take out a zombie.

    Oh and a chainsaw - it's not recommended in the guide either, but gorram it, it's fun!

    Forumz!

    Really?

    [ ]Yes [ ] No

    What I never understood was how the cyborg pack seems to be more like an android pack. I mean, most people seem to think it means "make a robot" when a cyborg is part human...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Technically, a pair of glasses makes you a cyborg...

    Still, I was expecting much more flesh, rather than that weird wood/plastic veneer it's got.

    Not that I don't like it, it's just not cyborg.

    Multi Builds

    I think I'll use it to level up in different ways - choosing powers differently from how I'd normally do them, whilst still having a "safe" build.

    Should be interesting...

    Rikti raids

    What is annoying is Zone based hunts, of which there are a fair few in COH between 1-15.

    Of course, I'd rather get those missions removed and replaced with story missions (or at least made so that you don't have to hunt in a specific zone), than stop the Rikti raids.
  20. And hopefully, some of the lesser used maps (Paragon Dance Party/Smokey Hellions map/Freakolympics etc.)

    We don't see them nearly enough and some of them would fit great into some of my planned story arcs.
  21. Well hopefully, based on feedback such as this, they'll be able to put these things into a Booster pack or something like that.

    I'd buy it.
  22. Left to play War? It's mince.

    Oh and you're cynical.
  23. I'm really looking forward to the Mission Creator and am glad that they've delayed it for the reason they have.

    The XP Pact thing is just awesome for someone who duos all the time.

    I think they've made the right decision - hopefully we'll find out before the end of March next year.

    I wonder if this'll be about that big thing.

    That big thing'll cause a stir alright.

    Are you coming out again?
