    It's hard to do dry straight face humor in a written context. Too many people are quick to assume the worst. (I myself fall prey to that problem.)
    you know some people took you seriously

    I had every intention of cancelling my lifetime subscription, however I ran into a snag... which sucked so I just said screw it and didnt want to deal with it.
    After using the Gift card my gramms gave me for the LT sub, I tossed it in the trash can... figured I wouldnt need it again.

    So when I tried to cancel, Cryptic would have just put the money back on the Gift card I used. However I did not have it anymore. So I contacted CHASE which is where the GC came from... and they couldnt help much because I didn't register the GC on their website.

    They said it would take up to 8 weeks to get it settled. So I just said puck it.

    I am sure I said I was cancelling somewhere, because I was gonna. But, then it was a bigger PITA than I wanted to deal with at the time. Now I get a whole second forum to haunt... Lucky me.

    :edit:

    Social interaction? WTF? you people take me too seriously. What on earth would make you think I dont go outside? LOL.

This game has a steady playerbase and even after the rest of the competition comes online, will still be a steady source of income to NCsoft. This is an accomplishment that most MMO's strive for.
    I find this responce to be laughable. I mean really LAUGH OUTLOUD.

    I do not play because I have done EVERYTHING that there is to do more than 10 times each. I have more maxed characters that have done ALL the badge contacts.

    I pay because of VET REWARDS... and thats about it. Dont you understand I am just WAITING for new stuff to do... and apparently I can afford to just pay 15 bucks a month x's 2 for something we dont even use. Something we are hoping will be usable in the future.

    Lets look at WoW Cataclysm..the expansion pack isn't probably going to come out until the very end of the current year (november releases for Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King tend to suggest that Cataclysm will follow the same pattern).

    Yet every other week or so they release tidbits of information, a hint here, an annoucement there to keep people excited until open beta comes along and the real news gets out.

    Here we get a big info dump during one month and then that's it, it's quiet for a long period of time before we hear anything else...
    This.

    I never left City of Heroes.
    I just didnt play.
    Same as I dont play now...

    I am currently subbed to like 5 MMOs and I find them all to be borefests...

    Kill X to get Y.

    Is there an MMO out there that doesnt follow this format?

    I don't think some of you reside in reality. You went so far past fanboi that you no longer have a firm grasp on what people are saying, if they do not just praise the heck out of the game.

    It has been this way for some of you for quite some time, all the way back to 2005. I have not stated that the game is "dying". What I am saying is LESS people log in. Alot of those people who are not logging in or who have let their subs lapse, are not logging or paying for time when nothing is happening. Nothing is being marketed. Nothing is being said.

    Yes we know... they are working on it. Yes we know there was a big holiday that just passed. Ok. Now what? the game is awesome. Yeah. it is. Its a heck of alot more awesome if there is new stuff to do. TF's and SF's dont really cut it. I dont have interest in them, and by reading this thread alone... it would seem others dont really care for TF's and SF's either. The whole MA thing was a debacle. It could have been so awesome. But there were some fatal mistakes, ratings being one of them. the whole spam Atlas thing made people quit. I know this because the few times lately I logged into CO... People actually asked me if it was fixed yet?!

    The goal of any 5+ year MMO is to retain it's loyal customers while trying to net new people. When your loyal customers don't renew their subscriptions based mostly on No new information/new updates... There is a problem.

    I wonder how many subs will be lost befor new information comes out?

    I hope as I do everyday that they will finally get off their nubs and say something. It is important to keep people interested. Marketing should know that. Hype is half the battle when it comes down to it. And I am sure they have a whole slew of stuff planned for closer to release of the product. BUT?! there is all this time before that happeneds where they could be advertising leaving little tidbits here and there. I see none. As someone else pointed out, it has been Months since Herocon... and months since Posi posted anything, anything at all. I see Castle and Babs posting here and there but nothing about whats coming.

    It's like making the choice to put a blindfold on, and go try and do your everyday normal stuff without tripping on a curb or getting smashed by a bus.

    It's one thing to stay positive. It is another to...

    I am sure there are some people who log in everyday... but, it is less than before.

    New information would help this game, not hinder it...

I was just letting you know why people give you guff and why I thought it was odd. I would never give anyone any trouble if I saw some sentences if I was passing by but alot of people arent like that. Everyone has their own style of weird and for some that's intolarance just try to ignore it.

    Oddly through time I have collected up quite a few people on my global list... and none of them log on anymore. Some were regular forum people and others were die harders from ingame that think forums are full of childish brats always trying to epeen each other to death...

    They arent logging in. They tell me on Twitter or facebook... They are waiting to resub for Going Rogue... or some say they wouldnt have let their subscriptions LAPSE if they gave out more information reguraly.

    I understand it is marketings job to try and keep secrets, but when their secrets come at the cost of game subscriptions... I really think they need to rethink their position.

    Its been weeks since any information came out.
  10. When were you all elected to judge others?

    Maybe if they stopped *screwing around and listened to people...
    I do not log into play. No one I know logs into PLAY... ?
    Why? We are all waiting on news of GR...
    Why not release information?

    I do not think they understand that silence encourages nothing. Silence means nothing. Silence doesn't encourage people. It's in fact closer to ignoring people. Ignored people don't log in to play... they find other things to do with their time.

  14. I really think they do Going Rogue a disservice by not allowing fans tidbits bi-weekly.

    It's hard to stay interested at all.

    Surely the advertising marketing people are not worried about stuff like DCUO and CO...
  15. I fail to see why animated hair even freakin matters. I have animated hair in other games, and wish they would have not bothered...
    Same with weather... Its cool for 5 minutes. After that - who cares -

    This game is awesome... Needs more stuff to do before we start worrying about pigtails bobbin up and down...

    yes.

    Okay, So...

    The lack of new information about GR has pretty much *bored* us to death.
    Neither of us actually log in to CoX for anything other than new Holiday badges. We aren't actually playing the game.

    I really think they need to advertise more. Give us new information weekly even if its only tidbits. Because the lack of anything new about it... it just doesnt help at all.
  20. nope

    I would also maybe play an ONLINE streetfighter game. That would be awesome.
  21. Hopes?

    My only hope is that there is NEW stuff to do for level 50's.

    NOT level 45 to 50. But ACTUAL stuff for level 50 characters to do... lvl 50 ONLY stuff... That would be awesome.
  22. i think you should donate these vids to paragon studios and let them i dunno... like do whatever they do to make them look like a movie*ish and then they should put them all over the web...

    Brag about how awesome the fans for this game are etc...

    Viral!

    This new screen is 23 inches and yanno the login screen where you pick the characters?
    Well those bars/lines that say the characters name look abnormally long and thick. It just looks really "not right".
    Its like for the loading in part to the game I somehow revert to a lower setting, but when I get into the game it goes to the right settings >.<

    I will see about a screenshot. It just looks terribad :\
