I've been attempting off and on for almost a week now. I tried at varying times just in case.

Okay. Living in a unique situation, and the only internet I have is dial-up. Thought I would give playing this a try over such a lightning connection. I managed to get all updated and patched just fine. But when I try and log in I am getting a "Unable to connect to login server." It mentions firewall in said error, but I both the launcher and game set to allow on my personal firewall. Part of the uniqueness of this situation is that said dial-up is also filtered.

My question: Could this be just not enough of a connection to login? Or is it part of the net filter Im stuck behind?

I know playing on such a slow connection wont be the most ideal. But I'm pretty bored.

Is it really worth it to slot things like Stam with the End Mod sets? Ive been flip flopping on it in my mind cant decide.

I managed to find an old install disc and just used that. For some reason it's still not playing nice with the launcher. But it's atleast patching now.

So Im trying to install the launcher/game on a new computer. I downloaded the client for the launcher from the account page. Went through the steps and got the launcher up and going. But when I click "City of Heroes" to install. I get a http status 403 error.

Tried uninstalling, reinstalling, running as admin. And anything I could think of. No luck.

Any ideas?

It pops up a "view log" button, read through it best I could, but heads nor tails of sense.

If I buy Going Rogue on Steam, can I still apply it to my existing account? Im sure I can, but just wanted to be safe.

SPOILER: My personal theory is that Austin is Linderman. I only say this because in one panel the artist drew Austin like a young Malcom McDowell.

After watching the new preview its pretty obvious he is. I also think that Dallas is Thompson (Bennetts boss), and not papa Patrelli like everyone is thinking.

Yay for Aerones! Good stuff buck-o.

Dagnabit. I really need to start drawing again... Stupid life getting in the way :-(

His stuff is very nice. Me needs some extra $$ to get one done by him.

By the way, not to be intrusive, but have you considered the Lighthouse in Siren's Call as the basis of the Tower Card? That was my first impulse when this discussion started...

Didn't think of that, don't even know where it is. My first thought was Ghost Widows Tower. But I'm going a slightly differant direction with my interperatations. Mostly cause I'm not good at drawing architecture.

Undead Ted would've been perfect for this. Well I think he would've been perfect, he's dead, but not in the playing sense of the.. but... oh well. Never mind :-)

That looks so awesome CJ.

I'm being horribly horribly A.D.D. with my sketches. Have 2 that Im trying to pick between (will scan when I can). But then I start drawing something completely differant and get all sidetracked.

Must focus. *breathes deep*

I have a few idea's I've just started doodling, mostly playing on the visual of the card. Will try and start hammering something out when I get home tonight. *crosses fingers*

Man everyone has some good starts. Im still in the coming up with idea phase. The Tower is a hard one to translate to Co*. But I must succeed!

It hardly needs to be said anymore Graver. But you rock. Very nice start on that one.

That is an awesome sketch. Really wish I could "sketch" like that.

I would be down to join in on this! I need some motivational project stuffs to get my juice's flowing again.

Ive always tried to draw. Started to get really into it during high school. Had alot of friends in the art classes too. Just kind of went from there. But once I switched over to photography, and went to school for it, my drawings have kind of fallen by the road side. Would love to get back into drawing, but just dont have the time/patiance at the moment.

Awesome start so far. Definatly going to keep an eye on this one too.

Undead Teds costume is simple, but his face might not be so much.

My Deviant page Currently its mostly photos though. Need to scan some more drawings in there.

More then anything I like the little danging guy in the corner of your drawings Ghost. But the rest is good too :-)

I think that Undead Ted would be too cute as a Yaoi Sailor Scout. So sign me ups.

I love creating new concepts and being able to play them. Closest thing on that list to that would be costumes. My next choice would be powers, then Storyline.. cause the story is pretty cool.

*cries*

I need to check these forums more often from now on.

*waits for next time*
