  1. Nevermind, everybody! A fellow player heard me asking about the arc in game and why, and then bought me a recipe and sent it to me!

    THIS is why this should not die! The community is the best!
  2. SSA? And is this arc Who Will Die a VIP only arc? If not, what is the level requirement and where is the contact for it?

    Thanks for the looks and replies so far!
  3. Hi all.

    I'm looking for a Fairy Wings recipe on Virtue. As of tonight, there were none in WW for sale. Please PM me if somebody has a recipe that they do not want - thanks!!

    P.S. I know I can get a recipe for 1 hero merit. I am just hoping to enjoy it before I get to my 20's to earn merits.
  4. 2nd swing, knocks it outta the park! Fantastic!!

    It looks like origin has to be chosen first, according to Dumpleberry's quote of Archon Helios at the convention.
  6. I was on an all-tanker Cutter TF last month, as part of Tanker Tuesday on Virtue. We eventually quit on the last mission because we could not whittle down the AVs fast enough. *shrug*

    Inside the costume creator under Body, there is Female, Male, and Huge. Freems do not get immediate access to the Huge body.

    Why not zombies? Just more to munch on upfront...

    Might want to post your current Rig....it might already be sufficient in running 2 sessions or at least be able to upgrade.
    I have a WIN XP PRO (32-bit) rig, 4 GB memory (only shows like 2.8 GB because of 32-bit limitations), Intel 2 Duo 8500 Wolfdale @ 3.18 GHz, and an ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB that is factory overclocked, 750 Watt PS.


    Thanks for all the responses!
  10. I want to set up a second account of CoH, and run both on the same computer. Is this possible? Does anybody else do this? If so, how powerful does my rig need to be and how do I go about actually doing it?

    Thanks for any help!
  11. I've only read the first 5 pages, so if this has been addressed, please forgive me.

    But out of those first 5 pages, the only responses I've seen so far center either on the artwork, or are glowing about the mechanics of this. Bot nobody seems to have raised the concern of "pacing."

    Great, we can now throw complete newbs into a huge zone battle, get the blood roaring, get really jazzed for the game....... and then what? They will be ejected out of the tutorial into Atlas or King's Row (Mercy or Port Oakes villain side), to the letdown and snail-like pacing that is the 7-year content we have had from the beginning. While I'm all up for an exciting invasion, as an introduction to a game (or a movie), if you can't back it up by keeping a good pacing after the intro, why would the average player stick around?

    Not to derail or anything, but thanks for the inspiration!

    Behold!! Carrotbeard, my new Ice/Battle Axe tanker lives on Justice!!

    See, not all the good names are, errrrr, were, taken....
  13. Just a quick question: how big (tall) are they?
  14. They could combine Atlas and Galaxy together IF they removed the AE building from Atlas as well, forcing the farmers to go to a different zone.

    In-N-Out Burger

    I tried In and Out when I flew out to Yuba City, CA for a funeral, and color me unimpressed. Culver's doesn't beat them, but they are local for me so InO was nothing special.

    Now my favorite chain burger joint is Fuddruckers. They have buffalo, turkey, ostriche, and black angus burgers, and I love their spiced fries. I've only seen 2 so far, one in Milwaukee and one in Kansas City, so maybe they are only a Midwest kind of chain.

    Wish List for 21

    I want them to expand the character slots on the servers to 48 or 60.

    I'm so dense. Forgot about EU servers.

    My bad.

    Mapserved...

    Doesn't matter. I am pre-50, and was getting the same mapservers solo. The massive amount of disconnects is probably weather related...
  19. It is NOT due to anything with the Alpha slot OR teaming. I was running solo missions on a level 33 blaster when I was mapserved 5 times in 10 minutes before I gave up. Dallas is having ice storms today, which may be the root of it.

    Mapserved...

    Somebody reboot the Freedom server! My team and I have been getting disconnected every 3 minutes or so for the last 15 minutes!
  21. Am I crazy, or does anybody else that has read #587 think that his death parallels the events of our Rikti War and Hero One and his team? That maybe he will come back, all "bug-afied" like ours did? Didn't the writer do some MA arcs, too?
  22. If any of my characters are low on funds, I just head them over to the AE and run some of the great player-made content there. Before I know it, I have enough tickets to fully DO or SO out my build, AND I've pocketed some inf. for later.

    I just wish that they would fix some of the availability issues with certain DO flavor enhancements there...

    For example.
    note: the "Pets" link on the Team window's header bar. If you don't see it, then you'll need to enable it in Menu-->Options. My Pets window is showing my Gun Drone (*/Devices) and my Blue Wisp (vet buff pet).
    How did you get your teammates names to show up in different colors in team chat?
  24. Notoriety adjusters for Praetoria are in Issue 19, so the answer is Soon.
