    My brain! It's BURNING!

    What, did you never play Diablo? (Or was it Diablo 2?)

    I cannot wait for this, especially all our spiffy Euro kin in one big sardines (the game) pile. Not sure I should stay with this name, though... Hrm.

    Thoughts?

    I think of the new boards with no Dump', and I see DQ with no ice cream.

    Well, on my barbarian, i go over to a defeated enemy, /hump it, then give a "potion" to my teammate.

    edit to add epic powers reduced in base damage, at least in part so they dont get crazy strong with fulcrum shift

    [/ QUOTE ]

    While FS made it ridiculous, the issue was with APP attacks in general - as they were never (originally) adjusted to take containment into consideration, so they were dealing 2x the damage intended.

    didnt it used to be, a fire controller got 5 imps instead of just three ? but i do agree if they would just quit with the senseless nerfing it would be better.

    Weird Chat

    [ QUOTE ]
    The closest thing to a RP experience I've had was when some nut kept TPing me into mobs. He said it was in his character's nature to do so. Fortunately, I switched on the "prompt for teleport" feature after the sixth time.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That is what /petition is for.

    Trial question

    Also, asking in help (/hc ) you will find people that often will help you form a group.

    that's

    /hc

    not

    /help

    /help now brings up the help window - and using the tabs to select help for the default chat channel is currently bugged to try to use /help (which used to be chat, but no longer).

    Ghost Falcon:

    I'm going to suggest you put all chat-related bugs into the *critical* category.

    Why?

    Because chat-related bugs are the single most visble category of bugs in the game. EVERYONE sees them. EVERYONE deals with them.

    Seeing your most basic social interface bugged, in an established MMORPG, presents a very unpolished and unprofessional product.

    I strongly urge you to put all reported chat interface bugs on the "critical - do not release until fixed" list.

    I'll /sign this as well.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Another /sign for this one!

    The chat bugs really do affect everyone...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, but if chat bugs were "DO NOT RELEASE" critical... we might be onto issue 10 on live by now.

    Might.

    Yeah, was there some doubt of it? Did you hear something? The reports of my death were greatly exaggerated...

    [/ QUOTE ]
    fixt? Death reports cant be anticipated, I mean death can be anticipated but reports of death?
    Unless I guess you are Snake Plisskin, or Robocop.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I think you missed Troy's usual self-degradation.

    He was stating that people are anticipating or looking forward to his passing.

    I am too, but only to make a grab at his, yet to be proven existing, pants.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The pants are proven.

    They run faster than he does too. Which is part of why he isn't wearing them.

    I'd be ecstactic if posters could simply get:

    they're, there, and their correct, and since we're shooting for the moon here;

    to, two, and too properly used would be nice.

    Crowning the fantasy would be the abolishment, and disappearance of ur
    (the "pronoun", not the ancient, lost civilzation)

    Yes, I know... It's good to dream...

    Of course it would have to be the disappearance of the pronoun.

    The lost civilization is, well, lost!.

    And don't forget your & you're (oddly enough, yore is left out of such confusions!)

    I would like the ability to put a hot link in as my toon's description, so that if someone clicked on it, they would be taken directly to my personal home page, where I could have flat text, line breaks, HTML, pictures, or even a 500-page life story for my toon if I wanted. CoH wouldn't have to worry about storage space this way.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    [*] I bet they don't want to enable grief links. People would do it for sure, putting up things like tinyurl links to sites that exploit browser vulnerabilites or just nasty content, just because they could. It's a sad thing, but I could see the devs not wanting to let people go there.

    Anyway, barring that idea's implementation, I say go ahead and put the link in your bio. Copy/paste makes it easy to transfer to a browser for people who can multitask with the game up.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, they would not want to enable this, then have people link to various sites that are hateful, illegal, etc. However, if they want the full bio... link to it. You can copy/paste it into the address bar of your browser now.

    Peregrine Island

    In front of the ferry in the "island" the road loop forms.

    Every Co-op zone. These do not have unlocks required other than any unlock to access the zone.

    And yeah, the Magic Pack is probably the handiest to start off with.

    The Cyborg pack is pretty fun though. Self-Destruct never ceases to amuse.

    [/ QUOTE ] And I've gotten some pretty good utility out of S-D (mobs stuck in walls that youc annot target still get hit by non-targeting AoEs!) Especially if you can remember that with a right-click on a inspiration, you can give out insps without targeting the person.

    I recommend choosing the magic booster with GvE - Very snazzy (and not so specialized) costumes with a nice little buff power.

    I think you mean the AE edition.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yes, I meant AE, not GvE. No choices on GvE.

    this of course begs the question who are all the heroes on the loading screen?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Actually it raises the question. Begging the question is using a logical fallacy.

    Well, if anyone would recognize a logical fallacy it would be the guy with a Cobra operative as an avatar.

    I swear, every Friday night around 11-ish, Protector would go down for 'maintenance'.

    My favored theory on this was the cleaning ladies unplugged the server rack to plug in their vacuume cleaner.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Reminds me of the program my highschool used for attenence, grades, etc (their CMS, I guess you would call it).

    1:30 PM every Friday. It went down.

    I would even set my watch by it.
  21. Yeah - anything that gets sent to your chat windows (including the basic "Hit", "Miss", etc) are automatically saved even if you don't have it set to show.

    If you plan on getting a paid sub, go ahead and grab it now - the time stacks, and it lifts the restrictions.

    To start with, I recommend the GvE pack - the powers in it are nice utility powers you can get frequent use out of.

    Also, you can buy various Retail packs and "Stack" them if you haven't used that one on your account before, getting the goodies and free month (saving five bucks if you were wanting the goods anyway) - so you can get GvE, then Mac retail, then AE edition... etc.

    A little AE help

    It's one of the trial restrictions, to make sure people who make money selling in-game currancy can't use AE to advertise (Same reason a trial-account cannot INVITE to a team although they can join one - we had spammers inviting people them spamming them with "BUY NOW 10M 93.99!"). You can still "use" the AE - if you are teamed with others using it.

    Freaks:
    Talos 20-30 zone
    Terra Volta 24-30 HAZARD zone
    Brickstown 30-40 zone
    Crey's Folly 30-40 HAZARD zone

    Don't recall seeing any Freaks in Indepence Port... Tsoo, Council, Family, Devouring Earth, Giant Octopus...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    There's also quite a few Freaks (and lost bosses) in Faultline.

    And you can find the occasional lowbie (10-15ish) Freak in The Hollows, but I wouldn't recommend hunting them there. Far to rare.

    Edit: To the OP assuming you can handle a few Freaks (level 30-32) at the same time, you can get everything you need in Crey's Folly. Enter the zone and turn left there are almost always 1 or 2 large groups just up the street (usually battling Crey forces). Defeat them, then make an about face and head back to the entrance. There's a large warehouse just to the right of the entrance, hop up onto the roof and smack around the rikti monkeys (level 30-32). Then hop back to street level and follow the road directly away from the entrance. You'll pass a warehouse on your left, turn left after than and you'll find some sewage cannals. Hovering around the sewage cannals you'll see some DE swarms. Take them out, and you're all set.

    (Note: It's been a while since I've done it so I might have the kill order backwards.)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Not only that, but in that area there are lots of rooftops with Rikti Monkey swarms - so they are fairly easy to kill.

    Been trying to copy a few characters to test so I can try out the latest villian SF tweaks.

    None of the toons are copying over... anyone else having issues?

    I'm looking into it. It should be resolved shortly.
