This ain't a guide. Real guides have correct information and don't contradict themselves.

Obviously.
The only reason that a blatantly controversial guide would be posted in general is to start a fight. Success!

I really dont think you can make a guide on "PICK UP GROUPS"

Its a PICK UP GROUP because YOU dont care who joins as long as its fun..

Guides to PUG strike force or task force is silly


Say in broadcast, Hey we are going to do XXXXXXX st/tf it takes XX hours.. Who wants in?

then start sending tells asking people to join.. and tell them right up front how long it will take them..

send invites to the people who say sure..

Bam thats my guide

Eh. I can see the point in doing it, because it seems like the Cap SF is the only rough equivlant to the Katie TF that villains have. It's short, quick, and dirty. The only thing I can see this having over the Katie TF is that you only, really, need 3 people to run it (Last time I ran it, we had a Corrupter [Fire/Cold], a Brute [Sets escape me], and a Mastermind [Thug/Poison], and it didn't take us more then 45 minutes to burn through things. My only regret is I didn't have Neurotoxic Breath at that point [having taken it 2 levels later. :/]), and that you only really have to worry about one EB/AV (Depending on difficulty and group size, I guess - I'm not really sure).

Oh. And that you can start farming it at 15 if you're so inclined.

Handy to have a guide for that, to be honest..

You just go over there then. Tell me how it was when you come back a few months later with your tail between your legs.

Seriously, if you're going to leave, do it already. Get out. Scat. Bugger off.

I'm tired of hearing about players threatening to leave for games that promise a bunch of cool things that don't even exist yet.

Also, next year I promise to release a game that has everything you ever wanted! But I don't have a schedule for beta yet

Also, I hear that barbarian game that shall rename nameless is the bee's knees Didn't a bunch of people leave for that? Oh, wait, must of them came back?!? Really?!? You don't say!

[/ QUOTE ]

I didnt say I was quitting. But even if I did, who cares. Its not like this game isnt losing people right and left. Pushing out new issues in hopes of getting people back. Where is Issue 13 anyways?

What I am saying, is this game is old. And every little bits of time they are "offering" ways we can give them more money. More and more and more.

Why not just make Respecs FREE ? Why not? Who would it hurt? If you want the badge, do the trial.. If you want the recipe.. do the trial..

If respecs were free, PvPers to PvEers would be cool. You could just switch yourbuild for whatever the situation called for..

respec recipes would still get used.. or they could be like costume recipes.. its no biggy really.. but Why should they cost REAL MONEY?

Why not sell 100 million Inf for 9.99$ Whats stopping them from doing that?

- to the other person who said those other games will need a better computer...

I currently can run Crysis on High.. So pretty much any other game that can come out.. I am good for.
And I do plan on playing those other games. Right now I am only subbed to this one thoe, so I will ring in my opinions when I want to..

I really just dont see the point in charging for every little thing. *Your right.. we dont "Have" to pay.. but for a game this old.. why not just make that stuff free.. Thats incentive to play and stay.

- Oh and by competitive games.. I am talking about all the super hero games coming out in 2009.. Not so much the stuff that came out this year.

NCSoft isn't selling enough items to sustain the game, much less grow the game, on microtransactions alone. And have you played some of the games that are free with only microtransactions? I don't want COH turning into that!

The Wedding Pack got VEATs into i12, ahead of schedule and budget (scheduled/budgeted for i13). That was certainly a plus! People and development cost money, and as Randy Pitchford (CEO of Gearbox) said, "The difference between some games that have a great promise but don't quite fulfill it and the really great games is often about budget allowing the commitment to quality that most game makers have."

NCNC has a great commitment to quality. The "cash store" lets them improve their budget without raising fees. I don't see a problem.

In the neer future several "Competitive" games will hit the market. With flashy new graphics, New storylines, New powers, New everything. And this game will remain 4 years old and grow to 5 years old so on and so forth.

For 3+ years CoX only asked us all for a Subscription Fee. And for the we got 2/3 Free issues per year. And everyone was happy.

Then they tested the waters with the First Microtransaction.. Good versus Evil goodie pack.. then was another goodie pack.. then more and then the bridal pack.. then server transfers.. then name changes.. then more slots.. now respecs..

Now sure none of that was/is needed. But in the beginning, when we thought it was gonna be like every blue moon they have them, then sure why not. But now. Its not the same as back then.

I see no reason why they cant just open up the microtransaction store.. where people can buy just about everything in game and just drop the sub fee.

We can pay NCNC for ingame currency and for better prices than the RMTers.. we could buy recipes we want.. we could buy all the current stuff they are selling.. and even more.

Just really seems like this is where its headed..

Remove the subscription Fee per month.

IMO you cant have a CASH SHOP and a SUB FEE..

It used to be pay sub fee get all this wonderful other stuff for free or part of your sub fee.. however you wanna see it.

Now its pay your sub fee and now buy everything else.. because we wont give it to you for free even thoe this game is OLD 4 years and is coming up on some MAJOR competition..

I wonder if those other copmpetitive games are going to make us pay a sub fee AND buy all the ingame extras too. ??

*make is maybe not the right word.. but thats what i am sayin right now.

I just deleted 2 characters to reroll.. and the slots didnt come back to me..

Grrr... I want my slots

Go solo Bobcat. Yeah right, people solo AV's all the time. Sheesh, you think I don't know how to play my AT?

Yes, AV's are suppose to be hard.........Thats why they should be kept in trials and Tf's.
Not solo players normal missions.

This game is steering away from being the casual, solo player type game it was touted as.

Why oh why do we still have to equate Hard with Fun?

Yes a challenge is always good. But not to the point where you feel the need to by-pass it.

Getting a lv 50 to finish off your mission will be the normal way in the future, mark my words.

What kind of fun is that?

We duo'd all the AVs so far in game.. Solo.. nahhh.. but duo yes.

Just takez Skillz

Global Chat Handle reset
All accounts initially start with the ability to change their global chat handle one time. This grant will reset that and allow accounts who had previously changed their global chat handle to do so again. This is a one time chat handle change, so please use it wisely.

+++++

Thanks

Please let us buy or just hand out a new Global handle, like you did befor.

I have posted befor about this jerk kid who keeps identifeying who i am through my global befor, I have his accounts all on ignore, except guess what.. he always finds me on a diff alt or a diff account.

I used my first global handle change about 2 years ago, then when we got the free change i changed it with my husband lol to our alts that got to 50 together.. however oddly enough about 2 weeks after that we met the most annoying boy in all the universe, and for a while, it was deal-with-able..

It turned out he is NOT deal-with-able, at all.

I have global ignored this punk several times.. doesnt seem to work, I have even petitioned him for harrassment and supposedly it was handled back then..

It wasnt.. this jerk keeps finding me.. he knows what my current global handle is, and everytime i log onto the alt he last saw me on.. he send a tell.

I have him global ignored.. and yet.. he has no problems bugging me..

Now i dont log onto that alt..

Please give us a new global handle change.

Over reacting?
no, not really.
I will never turn mine on.
Why?
I dont like to listen to people cuss.
I already have my profanity filter turned on, on all my alts and that just makes people type like this

O M G I G O T B E Y O N D T H E P R O F A N I T Y F I L T E R

I always respond to people like this

hey dummy if i wanted to read that jazz i would turn my profanity filter off.

do i want to actually hear some dimwit say, your alt is hot lets ****.

no. but i have read that exact line befor on more than 3 characters.

do i see why people would want this, no.
buts thats just me.
do i see it being abused alot?
yes, every minute of everyday, unless someone can moniter what is said.

i dont play the game to be offended, and with voice chat, there will be alotta people being offended.

it goes through the launcher and then its in the game....... the whole time your in the game til you turn it off....................................

This seems like yet another thing to divide our gaming community here at CoX.

It was bad enough when it was
RPers v Everyone else.

Then came
IOers versus SOers

Then came
Micro Transaction'ers versus "Say No to Micro Transactions"

Then we get
+Ads people versus -Ads people

Now we are getting
Voice Chatters versus STHU ALREADY I DONT CARE THAT YOUR MOM CAUGHT YOU DOING WHATEVER IN YOUR BASEMENT AND NOW YOUR GROUNDED AND CANT WATCH CSI MIAMI...SHE SHOULD HAVE GROUNDED YOU FROM YOUR DAMN PC.

Divided about Farming, Divided about paying for extra goodies, slots etc..

We need to that brings us together more..

Suggestion: World Event "The 60's/70's Hippie Movement"
Camp fires, tye dyed clothing, kumbaya, smily faces, etc
Good Music implemented into the game..
General Happiness minus all the war and stuff...

w/e

if I want to hear people talk I call my family, or go outside, or go shopping.. or look to the left and say something.

i have heard so many abusive conversations through game voice chat its disgusting and a total waste of efforts imo.

when i first read the announcement i thought we were getting ingame voices like from the NPC's, which after hearing age of conan and how annoying that is I was like "ewwww".

but then i re-read it and oh joy they want me to hear the jerks actually saying "Lets Cyborrz"

no frikkin thanks, the money could have gone to something else imo.

*edit*

How many of us have to always keep it turned off for someone to think it was a bad investment?

Please dont use the money you so desperately need for actual ingame content and ingame stuff for this voice stuff.

I realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly hope this isnt what you are using our money for.

I have absolutely no desire to actually hear people cuss out every foe we come to, or go into graphic detail about their date last night.

ugh this sucks

Hows about instead of SGs sending email!
Get rid of the email system all together

CoX gives yall a webpage for your SGs/VGs
then yall could put all your stuff on a FREE webpage

www.cityofheroes.com/sg(insert sg name-insert founder or leader name here)

hows about you think of my posts about that game as Passionate. Good or Bad or Doomeaque.
i just get passionate about the game, cuz i love this game.

more slots is something i have been downright begging for - for a really long time.. and tabbing the contacts.. this issue is getting better and better, now if they raise the inf cap and make a setting harder than invincable.. i might just die

[/ QUOTE ]

There's an influence cap?!? I wasn't even aware it existed... the fact that it's a problem to you is scary.

Also, I don't deny that your posts are passionate... but passionate does not preclude them from being overly/overwhelmingly negative. If I'm not mistaken, didn't you have a few "I'm leaving" posts too? Doesn't scream "I love this game".

But, be that as it may, I'm glad you're happy and excited. Welcome to my (current) world,

[/ QUOTE ]


rofl i have never made any posts about leaving, ever I have however stated that i would never quit this game.

(not many games out there can top getting an awesome husband from)

i have however stated that champions online -prior to the more slots new announcement - *IS* going to be a game to wreckon with when it launches... because they have some stuff that sounds really nice.

I need about 5 more days to ding 50 on my MM... and then 14 days to go from 1 to 50 on my new Corr.. anytime AFTER that Issue 12 can come out.

im happy 99.9% of the time, people just read and interpret what i say to be negative.

its one of the perks with working from home.. i dont have any real stress.. so why would i ever be unhappy..

but people complaining about more slots should be thrown into a garbage pail.. 4reelz!!
