And my first thought was Crow T Robot.

[/ QUOTE ]
I named one of my robots that. Crow is off-limits but Crow T. isn't!

[/ QUOTE ]

It would be most hypocritical if you couldn't use Crow T, since Dr. Forrester is a mad scientist NPC in Grandville.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not really - as the people in control, they have more leeway. And they know exactly what will be done with characters they create/name.

Keep in mind that you can customize or make new chat tabs from scratch. Simply right-click on your chat window and select "Add tab" or "Edit tab" and proceed to add or remove the channels you want that tab to display. You can have up to ten chat tabs spread across up to five {main plus four} chat windows, each of those being splittable down a horizontal line.

[/ QUOTE ] I just want to clarify that you can belong to up to 10 Global channels, but you can certainly have way more than 10 customized chat tabs on your interface.

[/ QUOTE ]

Unless they snuck in a change.. not much more. There is a limit, and I know I was hitting it before we got more global channels.

Besides - Sometimes Virtue gets locked out, and you might not want to do the "shuffle" between character select on another server and server select to get in, or the western servers might go down to due to something going on in the internet - this gives you a good chance you will be able to play if something happens to them.

Correct --

CoH launched on April 28th, 2004, with a three day "Head Start" for pre-order customers.

CoV launched on October 31, 2005, with a FIVE day "Head Start" for pre-order customers.

[/ QUOTE ]

Was it five days?

Hmm, I think I just had too much work to skip on the first two

I tried to name a pet thug Marco and it said invalid name....

[/ QUOTE ]

Game commands as name are no-nos.

[/ QUOTE ]...please re-read the poster's attempted thug name. Specifically, the order of the 'r' and 'c'.

[/ QUOTE ]

Bah, I thought I saw Macro. My bad.

[ QUOTE ]
Slotted up, it's a 13.9s mag 2 stun, that pulses every 2 seconds, on an 8 foot radius. This means that within 4 seconds of wading into the mob, everything but an EB/AV is stunned.

[/ QUOTE ] In my experience, no.

Lts. and above have a built-in status protection of 2 or more - so LTs are 1 mag short of being stunned with a mag 2, and Opressive Gloom IS flagged to not stack with same caster.

Note, there are accolades that can increase mez magnitude, and that will will work, but out of the box OG only takes out minions on it's own.

Note, I have a nice NRG/Dark Armor I'm working on, to stack OG with all the stuns.

We already had an SG that couldn't log in a while back, if they had opened up the SG window after the character "GOTO" was added to the roster.

Finally they had found someone with a)Kick permissions and b) knew how to kick via slash command yet had not tried to open the window

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
does that mean that any character you have on live freedom is going to be on test 2 as well?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. The snapshot will presumably be during the Monday morning maintenance, and odds are high that it'll come up as a complete copy; characters, SGs / VGs, bases, everything. AFAIK it's actually *easier* to copy an entire server than be specific about it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Forgot about that - when they did the same with Virtue, it included SGs. So it lets them test SG stuff as well.

[ QUOTE ]
The date I find in searching is April 27, 2004. However, I believe this is just the date when the box was released for pre-orders. Players who pre-ordered were allowed to get into the open beta for the final battle with the Rikti before the Live release which was a couple of weeks later, May 8, 2004, IIRC. The anniversary celebrates the Live release.



[/ QUOTE ]

Commercial release was April 28th - Don't know when the beta for preorders was, but the pre-release started on the 25, IIRC.

With at least a dozen other probably more qualified folks from the forums applying? I don't stand a chance.

[/ QUOTE ] Never know if you don't try!

[/ QUOTE ]

I did try, and I didn't stand a chance. Look up.

[/ QUOTE ]
If you did try, then I wasn't talking to you.

Spawns more.

I had this happen to me. It seems the bank thought this was a fraudulent purchase because it wasn't part of my predicted shopping trend report. I don't make online purchases a lot and my subscription is on a yearly renewal. Call your bank and make sure they know that it is really you trying to make this purchase.



[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, many banks have this kinda thing in place - especially since you do have people stealing credit card info and using it to purchase game accounts for things like RMT.

Also, when this kind of thing happens, you can go to the "Support/Ask A Question" section of www.cityofheroes.com.

Wow, someone earlier said it took them a week to get a rejection letter from Paragon Studios? It took me less than 8 hours.

I waited twelve weeks - never got ANY reply.

OK.. Where's Ghost Widow? Is she the one holding the camera? Or is she the one ducking behind Graham West?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ghost Widow wishes to remain anonymous. So, I'll never out him or her. And I hope everyone else respects his or her wish on this.

I'm not even going to say who's dating whom.

[/ QUOTE ]

I was going to guess GW was the photographer

[ QUOTE ]
Side note re: water: someone on forum floated the idea of Energy blast as 'water.' The look, and secondary effect, make a lot of sense.

[/ QUOTE ]

Specifically, IIRC, the background on the energy blast animations is that they were originally geared for Water Blast.

Undoubtedly. You can see them in the trailer.

[/ QUOTE ]

I saw pistols, but were there Demons?

[/ QUOTE ]

I meant the characters - they don't have her actually summoning demons, although fibroblasts look to be in the powerset for attacks.

Does anybody remember what they were testing the last time they copied a server to one of the Training Rooms? I can't recall.

[/ QUOTE ]I do believe it was for the Manticore+Sister Psyche wedding.

Maybe this transfer is for an event as well?

[/ QUOTE ]

It gives them more chances of having fifties on test for the SF/TF testing without having to worry about the Copy tool going down.

[ QUOTE ]
testing server merger? maybe?

[/ QUOTE ]

That's crazy talk. Talk that that will have you eaten alive.

They are just getting it ready for Issue 15

[ QUOTE ]
I don't qualify for any of these... how can you get into the game industry if they're always looking for game industry experience????

I'd LOVE to be a QA tester for this game.

[/ QUOTE ]

I hear yah PK, I tested software for 4 years, was a QA Lead for 3 of them, but is wasn't gaming software.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd so give it a go for one of the QA spots - it might not be Gaming software, but some things are universal to the "genre" - in this case software testing.

And you have the CoX experience

For the record, there is NO Issue 15 Closed Beta.

When:
Soon

[/ QUOTE ]

So, to both see if Understand Correctly, and for Clarification, I15 is going
Internal Test ==>open Test ==> Live

sort of like how Issues used to go before I9 (with the exception of CoV/I6)

[/ QUOTE ]

Correct.

I like Schroedingers Beta... lol Its both crashed and uncrashed.

Brilliant! </guiness guy>
