  1. I'm curious if it will work (because other serial codes still work) for making an account VIP.

    Has anyone tried this?
  2. So, I see. Perhaps a game time card would work. I know that the costume codes still validate on accounts.

    I need to screenshot all of my characters!
  3. I'm trying to upgrade to VIP for the last few months of CoX, but it appears disabled, as far as I can tell.

    I'd like to go out with a bang in City of Heroes. Any way to become VIP now?
  4. This is the best proc ever created in the history of the game.

    Now to collect like 200 of them.
  5. A lot of good points brought up in this thread. I tend to agree with some that this isn't the real parity change Blasters need, although it will certainly help.

    Crashless nukes for a real burst damage that fits today's playstyle would go a long way. A minor +regen/self-heal isn't really what Blasters need, I think, their fragility is what makes them unique. I always thought they should just become the most damaging AoE AT in trade-off for their low suvivability and lack of mez protection, and not be equalled by Brutes/Scrappers.

    The changes to Defiance certainly helped awhile back, as does their high damage cap. They're not bad, certainly, but I think a crashless nuke would certainly help their cause. Adding more survivability further muddles their AT with other ATs, me thinks, when really, they should become better at their uniqueness.
  6. I forsee a lot of respecs in my future with these changes...

    I almost take none of those powers that grant survivability in my standard builds.
  7. Just noticing this since I've been mostly away from the game for several months. I can appreciate those from outside the network feeling it feels 'spamy' to post our daily activities, however, because of the restructure of the forums, namely the dismantlement of the SG recruitment forum, this thread was moved here in order to preserve it and this forum was deemed the 'most appropriate' for a multiple-server SG network.

    Again, the intention was never in any way to spam the general forum as a way of getting special attention, this thread was created for the SG recruitment forum, and moved here because this is the most appropriate forum now for this type of thread, as far as we've been told, from what I understand.

    Posting the daily activity of the SGs has been a tradition for years as a means of demonstrating that we are indeed committed to being an active and growing network. It was actually because of this thread, I believe, that I joined the Repeat Offenders some five years ago, actually.

    Anyways, I can see some may disagree with a multiple server SG network recruitment thread, but I hope you can also see and appreciate the fact that this thread has been kept alive for years by volunteers of the network in order to help keep it active, not some 'bot', so we all can have fun in the crazy themed/syngerisitic/costumed teaming projects we've had.

    Good to know some links are pointing to the old forum/website, I'll pass that along (I'm not personally involved with much at the moment, but I do hold a star or two in the network.)

    Happens to me all the stinking time, but yes, just swapping servers will almost always fix it.
  9. My favorite point of the claiming the free item was seeing the bright orange wording, "all sales are final."

    Fine, I won't return my free item!

    This, would be awesome.
  11. Just chiming in to agree that Energy Melee is pretty bad in it's current form.

    Not only did they nerf it's single target damage towards the bottom of the pack, the long animations generally make the set un-fun, since targets are quite often dead before you even get your attack off.
  12. First impressions: absolutely awful sound effects.

    Sounds like I'm banging a trash can inside a giant whale.
  13. Awww...I can't purchase it at midnight like other Tuesday releases....

    We need more non-power slot taking up travel power options. If I had the choice between Super Jump, Super Speed, Fly, Teleport, Ninja Run and/or Beast Run without taking up a power slot, I would take more variety.

    As is, Ninja Run is generally the best choice for most of my builds as it doesn't take a power slot, in addition to having the best mobility of any of the above.
  15. Did anyone ever write a software program so you could play the game online?

    I know I used to play Legend of the Five Rings (produced by the same company) and used to use a java application to play online with people (since it was such a niche game it was rare to find people locally to play).
  16. This new series of 'what xx thinks I do' posters are quite humorous.

    Well done. Will save this for my collection.
  17. Major congrats, Thor! Awesome!
  18. I got the PM details. Thanks!

    I was seriously considering that picture for my new CoH login screen. Glad to see someone else enjoys it too.

    Pretty much, yeah.
  21. I am eagerly awaiting instructions for how to change the login screen for myself since the City Splasher no longer functions properly.

    Not yet. Would appreciate!
  23. Better ATs for teams will always be better ATs for teams.
  24. I have to admit, for a completey fluff non-combat power, the Flying Disc is a ton of fun!
