    Here's a shortcut.

    Dev's Corner -> Community Digest

    Each patch gets a new post, and being posted always by a community rep type person, shows up there.

    New changes are up now. Not sure if they are for Psi Assault yet, but it was working fine when I checked it a bit ago. >> Incase anyone missed it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The ONLY part of the /Psi changes that should not be up is the changing of those two attacks listed from using the Ranged Damage mod, to the Melee damage mod.

    Manticore, nice to "meet" you again after seeing you at last year's War College for Tabula Rasa! Very nice of Cuppa to take the time to drag you out of your Base Of Operations to come talk to those of us who knew you and your work.

    <ul type="square">[*]More of a "what if?" than a past history question:
    The Ouroboros organization seems to be oddly "unconcerned" by (ie. no real focus on) the Banished Pantheon's return and ... conquest, I suppose ... of Dark Astoria. Should we, the players, take this as a sign that the whole (back)story thread revolving around the Banished Pantheon and "recovering" Dark Astoria is less important than we've been led to believe by in-game text?[*]Do you, or Hero 1, have any storylines in the works for The Zig in Brickstown?
    The Zig is such an incredibly MASSIVE structure, that so totally dominates the zone ... it seems a crying shame that it's essentially a terrain feature and nothing more.[*]Is there any way to expand more upon the backstory of the Crey's Folly zone? Is Crey Industries (ever?) going to do anything to "reclaim" it(s property)?[/list]
    [/ QUOTE ]

    From what I udnerstand, the zone isn't all owned by crey - it's just something they did that made it un-inhabitable.

    Info Question

    Dark Armor also has a stealth toggle.
  6. Go to where the updater is.

    Rename it to OldCohupdater.exe or something like that. Then try running that. It works for that error sometimes. If it does, it will create a new CoHUpdater.exe that you can use from then on.
  7. If you have charges for a click or toggle power, the power will show up in the powers menu under Temp powers (but, I think, above Inherent. If not, below inherent powers but above pool powers)

    Auto powers are, well, auto.

    Ticket benefits are usually used by selecting the "Use discount coupon" option on the screen where you spend money.

    I was double checking and thought I got it wrong, so I deleted my post.

    I checked again on the SG, it is 10 + your SG

    Didn't think you of all would make a mistake on that issue.

    Although, we could use a raise in the cap, still, last I checked

    I didn't, I was right the first time and second time :P
    I just second guessed myself and removed my original post, I should have left it alone Self doubt gets ya every time

    html formatting would be wonderful

    I think this bug is actually due to a move to disable html formatting in certain places.

    If you're a trucker, and are not getting paid hourly, but by mileage, you'd understand all about getting paid for your time. Like heading out to pick up a load, it's not ready yet, and you're getting paid to sit (not shut down) in the truck.

    The law still states you have to shut down after X hours (IIRC it's 14), regardless.

    [/ QUOTE ]...I don't get paid to sit waiting on the load. I get paid to drive. If I'm sitting waiting on the load, I'm not getting paid. Which is why drivers -HATE IT- when the shipper drags their butts on getting the loads ready.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, truckers defiantly get paid for driving. That is not a "time" job. Time is very important, but it's not what you are paid for.

    Check the supergroup recruitment area and see what types of sg's are on each server and which groups appeal to you. All the servers are active. Just pick one, go to it, and talk to all the people there to get a feel for it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    On the individual server forums there are stickied posts listing the major global channels for that server, as I recall. Good resource to join when you are looking for teams.

    Okay. My job as a network architect and chief network admin is to sit around and manage my network.

    I spend a few minutes a day delegating.
    I spend maybe an hour answering questions.
    I spend a little time in meetings and double-checking logs, function, etc.

    The rest of the time I sit back and twiddle my thumbs and just exude the fact that I'm available should someone need me.

    Am I being paid to twiddle my thumbs?

    No. I'm being paid for my time.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    No, you're being paid for the work that you do while you're there and for being available. If you didn't do your work when it was required, would you still be getting paid? Doubt it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    While he would not get paid or keep his job without being there and actually doing the work... the big thing is what I bolded. And being available/on call like that is also being paid for your time.

    I believe that's why the low level IO with special procs. are even more expensive than the higher level ones.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    IOs with procs (chance for damage, +stealth, +regen/recovery) will work at any level, as long as the power is available (not greyed out).

    Any set bonuses they provide will not count if you're lower than 3 levels below the IO level.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, for the benefit itself, a classic proc and a 120s proc-style IO just need to have the power they are in used.

    Global IOs however (the KB protection IOs, etc) provide a special set bonus - as such using those IOs follows all the rules of a set bonus, and THOSE ones are crazy-spendy the lower they are for that reason.

  18. [ QUOTE ]
    I think NCSoft selling influence would be one of the only(if not the only) thing that would get me to immediately quit the game. I wouldn't be able to compete financially, and the massive inflation that would occur would put IOs out of my reach. To me, IOs are the single best thing that ever happened to the game.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well, when SOE started to do that, you could transfer to an "exchange server" I think it was called - a server which had that store enabled. But you could not transfer from.

    But their markets were not cross server like ours is.

    When ever i have SS on my power thing says i have minus threat lvl and i kinda of want to know what the hell that is.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    For the most part, you can think of it as another stealth effect. Technically it isn't, but you're only likely to have an issue with that technicality in PvP. Stacking stealth+SS gives you full invisibility. It's better than Invisibility from the power pool because it doesn't make you "Only Affecting Self", but it's nowhere near as good as what Illusion Control gets.

    Some of the stealth effects do not stack with each other but, since SS is 'technically' not stealth, it stacks with all of them.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    -Threat and and stealth have nothing to do with each other. Not in the way you are indicating.
  21. [ QUOTE ]
    And people point and make fun of me for leaving SS on in battle as a squishie. Hah!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Question is, does it suppress in combat? ;p
  22. [ QUOTE ]
    http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Threat

    It's part of the Threat calculation. Higher ThreatLevel gives you higher Threat, which makes it easier for you to take and hold aggro.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    And as I recall, most self-stealth gives some form of -Threat.

    They are using NC/PS's intellectual property without authorization...

    [/ QUOTE ]They pay a subscription fee just like anybody else. That gives them the authorization.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Whoa, careful with that. They pay a subscription fee, but they're only authorized to play the game as long as they do so within the rules. Their amount of money doesn't mean they have total access to do whatever they want. You pay for the privilege to play the game, on the condition that you follow the rules. If you don't follow the rules, you're out of here, and it doesn't matter how much you paid.

    [/ QUOTE ] Which is exactly what I said. All I was saying was they have the authorization to use the software, because they paid the subscription. My very next statement explained they would get canceled for abusing that authorization.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Actually, Mateo, I think the IP bit referred to the RMT types using the "City of" logos on their site without (obviously) the permission of the IP holder, in this case Paragon Studios/NC Soft. Which, as witness by the EULA/TOS part of the fansite kit, having a subscription to the game does not necessitate having the permission to use the logos/IP.

    Two words: CONTRACT LAW. The EULA -IS- a legally binding contract.

    [/ QUOTE ] Unless I've missed a concluded court case that didn't end in a out-of-court settlement... possibly.
