And these are player questions how?
(And I think the multiple transaction one isn't too likely...) -
Quote:Most that had issues were able to get it resolved with the past couple of packs they bought (via data from the email recipets which for the past couple of years gives the full code)? Or when you started to use the current payment method or last changed the CC number?Originally Posted by Soulwind
I can't get into my accounts, I've tried multiple e-mail chains to support and since I'm unable to give them all of the info they want [it's been over 6 years since I put in the CoH id's and the actual master accounts are even older than that due to other ncsoft games] they just keep sending responses back that I haven't provided them the info they want.
And have you tried asking Z for help?
Some use (as I believe someone else called it) "sticky IPs" - Unless you force reset your IP address you generally end up with the same IP. And most filtering of this type can learn to recognize what range of IPs make up a "region" to account for dynamic IPs.Quote:Originally Posted by Red_Raccoon
I didn't know that. If most service providers assign dynamic IP addresses, then doesn't that mean most CoV players have to go through the security questions like you did every time they log into their account? If that's the case, I'm surprised I haven't heard more of an uproar.
I've only had to go through the security protocols once, just after they were implemented. I guess that means my provider doesn't use dynamic addresses. Am I just lucky? -

Patron Power Pools
" with Issue 18/Going Rogue's side-switching, only characters with villain or rogue alignments can unlock Patron Power Pools. However, after unlocking the pools, they remain as legal choices even if the character then changes alignment away from villain or rogue, and can be respec'd into and out of at will.
Peacebringers and Warshades do not have access to Patron Power Pools."
Note you might want to be careful when doing other people's tip missions if you are going for a specific alignment and have not done five yet that day - other people's missions count even if you don't want them too.Quote:
If you mouse over each circle, it will tell you either how long it's been since you did the tip or it will say that you are not remembered for this. As long as there is a circle that says you are not remembered, you can do a tip mission and get credit for it, regardless of whether it's your mission or someone else's mission.
And the alignment changing mission can drop even if you have already done five tips that day. -
Quote:Up at the top, click "City of Heroes Forums" to get to the base page - and go into the beta forums there (these only show if you are logged in) - basically there's an issue with the updater and you need to switch it to NA mode to get it to allow access to the beta server - explanation is in the beta forums.Originally Posted by Angelxman81
My launcher says I have the US version of the Test.
Im European account.
When I log in, I only have 1 server, and thats Test server, no beta.
Any clue? -
Quote:That might actually support the fact the global MA badges check the MA system.Originally Posted by Snow Globe
If it were stored with the MA system, then one thing that I've observed wouldn't be happening. Every so often my newer characters will not be awarded the Early Bird badge even though I've did many "first looks" at AE arcs. This usually happens with a server reset and will not start awarding again until I run another AE arc for Early Bird.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Early Bird the only non-authoring badge globally awarded by the MA system? Therefore, it's coding might be a bit of a hack?
That's the only global badge I can think of that is based off what your character did - every other global badge is tied to MA system or the billing account. -

Pretty much, I'm not going to be any help on a level 1 toon.

The only upgrade you need to do is adding your code to your account at CityOfHeroes.com
Your client is already (or was) current and had all the GR info (one client no matter what your accept has access too. Not like old EQ were you could have packs you did not own not install. I recall many flying dwarves before I added luclin
)
So launch the NCSoft launcher again and verify. -

Quote:As it is another copy of the client, yes.Originally Posted by Global_DJB
Does the beta server really need over a 4gb download?
However the copy trick to minimize the download might still work. (look honeys various test server installation threads.) -
Considering the plain NCSoft card was shown (in my viewing) on the same page for £17.99 I'm guessing there was a boo-boo somewhere.
-
Open the NCSoft launcher.
Right click city of heroes to open it's drop down menu.
It will be an option like "Repair" or "Force Consistancy Check".
If after running that it still won't work - go into the COH folde and delete any file with "checksum" in it's name AND go into the pigg folder and delete the sound2 pigg file (or whatever the name of the offending file is). -

You are on record as being a supporter of the Resistance.
The Resistance have been using Arachnos forces as allies.
Ergo, you support Arachnos

I know from goofing around in the costume creator that the only Signature Character we can really faithfully recreate is Sister Psyche.
However, I'm thinking you wanted the faceplate for your own character. Tough luck there, sorry =/ -
Quote:On thugs, it's the arsonist that generates the most hate. Can hardly keep that idjit alive on a Pain MM.Originally Posted by Badaxe
And with mercenaries you will notice that it's normally the "medic" that runs in and get himself killed, very annoying.
I'm guessing some of his powers have long recharges and is also why I named my medic Suicidal Sam. -
Quote:Yeah, but before anyone said anything, the person who necro'd it the second realized the situation an apologized. And provided a solution to anyone else who stumbles upon this thread that might work for them.Originally Posted by The Grim Heaper
... Is it just me, or did a necro'd thread get necro'd? It was brought back to life after over a year of rotting in the grave, and then someone saw fit to perform the ceremony again 5 months after that.
Hopefully they'll use it without necro'ing, but hey, can't have everything. And technical issue threads have slightly different necro rules anyway. -
Quote:At the top the list hit name to force it to resort. It should allow transfers to any server with at least one free slot - but currently the whole list won't show at once.Originally Posted by TankShock
Is there a limitation to the server transfers? The list of available servers won't show anything with 7 or fewer available slots. Is this WAI?

Quote:Only if the confuse is made that way. But the proc really should not agro just because several common confuses don't and it IS a purple set.Originally Posted by EmperorSteele
Except confuse effects don't do damage or debuff, and therefor should NOT cause agro. It's the primary strength of confuse powers, that they won't notify the bosses in a mob that you're standing 60 feet away.
-
You might try asking for help in the Technical issues forum (above this one in the development sub-section).
You can either through the website or ingame submit a /bug (choose "suggestion" - the suggestion option might actually under /petition) to NCSoft about working better with Steam to keep the base game download more current. Steam should have a similar option under help.
I definitely recommend contacting NCSoft (via website or petition) if just so they can ask for a traceroute. The current updater is supposed to take advantage of a dispersed download point service from what I recall.
Sorry it's a rough start for you, but this game an community are both great and we hole to see you ingame soon.
P.S. As an MMO the game will refuse connections from out of date clients. So which I can't recall if the old method to bypass still works, doing so at the moment would bot help you. -

Quote:Seeds of Confusion would like to disagree with you. That is one of SoC's downsides. If World of Conusion for Mental Manipulation is not causing agro, I think that's a bug - as I recall it is also a damage aura.Originally Posted by Derangedpolygot
No. Confuse powers are not flagged to aggro. I've done this many, many times. WoC without a proc slotted will not aggro. With any proc, it will(when the proc successfully fires).
They will aggro if they see you, like trying this without stealth. -
Quote:I think so.Originally Posted by Wonka
Hello hoping this is the right place... have a question for a bunch of the vets with more experience in this.
Does the contagious confusion proc cause aggro? On my mind controller I was invis and sitting in the middle of a few spawns on a TF and started using confuse. No aggro until about the 4th one then boom.. everyone hates me at once.
Usually I can stand right there and keep going with confuse... only thing I can think of is the proc itself isn't flagged !aggro like the power is.
Is that WAI? If so going to have to move the set to mass confuse instead because it really ruins the power for me. -
Quote:Eh. Even as a lesser server, it's still extra hardware to maintain.Originally Posted by Kheldarn
If I had to guess, I'd say it's because there was always someone complaining that Test wasn't available any time a Closed Beta was held on it. Now, Closed Betas can be held on Beta/GR, and Test remains open to all.
It lets them patch things to live while being able to use the beta server for specific functions (and one that's facing the world, at that).
