Tried to update my MAC client today and it kept getting stuck in a loop. Deleted the program and did a new install, that did not help. Removed the program and the NC Launcher program so I could download a new installer and that did not work either.
Problem occurs when I try to play i get a message "Download patch does not match expected hash". After clicking continue 20-30 times, a prompt comes up saying "Applications/City of Heroes.app/PS/CityOfHeroes_Main_0.0.0.0To0.0.0.1/PatchManifest.xml could not be loaded!". Before anyone says the standard "delete the manifest", I followed that path and found the the xml file can't be loaded because there is no file to load.
I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8. I can understand a update not working but I downloaded a new client to install. That should always work. Whats the problem here?
My Norton antivirus Vulnerability Protection was on. Disable it or any internet monitoring or Mac firewalls and try again. It is finally downloading on my macbook pro -

That's the message I got today when I tried to download the new patch.
Plus: "Downloaded patch does not match expected patch hash!"
I quit rather than continue (my two options at the time).
Could someone explain what this means, and how to fix it? -
Quote:I'd rather have everyone live. Then I can save my resurrect instead of using it. buffing the lowbie makes them fight even harder cause their watching their damage numbers go up so fast from Fort. I know I want to get as many pop shots off once I hit.Originally Posted by Solo_One
Given a large team(like the new trials) and a limited time window for buffing who do you buff first? buffing the weaker players keeps them safe but makes things go slow, buffing the stronger players makes things go faster but you may have people dieing.
whats your philosophy? -

I generally agree with this. I think a well built DM/nin might outperform a bane, but overall yeah banes have a lot of my stalkers a little bit jealous.

You know those missions where you occasionally fight yourself? Like a Nemesis clone or something? You notice the pets are summoned pre-enhanced? I'd be fine with that. Honestly replacing lost minions in battle isn't a huge deal for me, its going through the hassle of re-enhancing them -- thats annoying and unfairly end-expensive -- it seems most of us agree that its the enhancing thats the unfair part.
Why not just have the pet enhancements a passive ability that just makes your pets summon equipped -- like NPC MM's do. MM primaries are too end-heavy in general anyway. -
Loving my archer. mixing it up trying to figure out the attack combo. I know it starts with flash, glue, debuff, boom.

I just got into the 40's with my fire/thermal controller. I'm having a good time, with no particular problems, but I thought this would be a good time to look for some advice. I don't see any fire/therm guides. Any suggestions for ancillary powers? Favorite IO's? I only team with this character.

I usually play scrappers but I wanted to try out something with a bit of range, so looking at making a weapons based (personal preference for this character) blaster, so either AR or DP. I wanted to stay away from blapper type build so I was thinking of devices as a secondary, given it's more defensive focus and lack of melee attacks although it does lack build-up. Is build-up very important for a blaster? Certainly open to suggestions of alternate secondaries, although this character concept fits better with a more technological/device based set.
How do these sets perform, I kind of like the swap ammo concept of DP, gives a bit more flexibility against a variety of foes, but the powers in AR seem to destroy DP damage wise. I don't really want to be putting out weaksauce damage.
The other option is to go Dp or AR with /traps corruptor. How would that option stack up?
Thoughts? -
I give up. the deal was good for a lifetime player. CO sucked. got my refund and came back to coh. What'd i miss? besides missing a game I've been playing longer then my kid's been alive.
DOH! -
Forgot to mention one thing. we killed the av and a nicutus sacraficed itself, The last two thou! we sent the AV to the side of the stage and killed him there while half the team kept attacking the healing Nic so it wouldn't rez.

I used hurricane and tornado to knock the ambushes into the water. They don't come back. till later because they use the stairs and not the hills. THAT was fun! I self destructed and came back and they were standing at the points where I had blown them off the cliff.

I didn't read the rest of the fourm but like the cyborg pack. I don't like the purchased jetpack. I mean comon you should be able to run a mission and get it as a temp power like the gold flypack or the meyhem mission pack. I don't want this to become some elite crap only some can afford.

Welcome to the party Big Blue you smurfing guy you. now drop the judge dredd armor and put on your paragon armor. it's time for an upgrade

That was a good read on what heroes you downed. I tried EB with my zombie dark mm but kept getting wiped by Mynks. Stupid me forgot the debuff power and havent re-rolled my char. Great job on the solos. I should try the defensive mode.

So glad I found this. My second monitor would blank out my primary coh so it was hard to see if my zoning completed when I had my cursor over the other monitor.

It is pretty odd all of the sudden I feel uber. Tank god like. I was standing on a platform after a battle admiring the scenery and noticed my pets were attacking something. Bodyguard mode had kicked in. Behind my back a door opened and a couple of lvl 42s came out. My pets did the damage and my dar servent healed them well. All lived and wiped out the 5 lvl 42's. Interesting that all of the sudden I feel more well... less tacticle. Body guard I like for the behind the back ambush that I can't see. My pets went nuts off the first spider sting. Starting to love it but ... god like?
