Quote:Fighting a nuclear war of wits when armed with a spatula comes to mind when I read some of those posts.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
True story: someone long ago once told me that I only thought other people would believe what I had to say because of my excessive post count of twenty eight hundred posts. I've come to believe that post count is what you attack when you run out of things in the post to attack and you want to attack the poster, and you just don't know the poster well enough to have good material to land. Someone who's been around the forums even for a few minutes would at least hit me for being too focused on numbers, or being a suck up to the devs, or having a cult, or being literate, something like that.
But I think the guy with nine posts will accuse the guy with forty seven posts of spending too much time on the forums if they run out of things to say. It means exactly that much, and is exactly that funny.
Besides, everyone knows its not post count, but word count that matters. Unfortunately the boards don't track word count, or I would currently be the Supreme Overload of the forums. -

Catgirl characters in CoH are frequent and thus annoying. Thus, anything to do with catgirls is automatically terrible and a blight upon humanity.

Quote:There's a far simpler way solution when people feel that a power/powerset are far too strenuous and it requires no modifying of said powers by the Devs, I believe it was mentioned up-thread.Originally Posted by Zemblanity
It's like there's a shadowy covenant making sure that Defender sets are grindy and stressful... Me, I find short recharging powers like Clear Mind, Speed Boost, the bubbles in FF, the shields in thermal and cold, etc, a real pain to apply, and would much rather just make them a teamwide AoE with maybe 100ft range that didn't affect the caster... But whatever...

Blue Mitos' attacks will do Fear, DoT(Special), -Recharge, -SPD, -End, -Recovery
Hami itself will do AoE Dmg(Special), Knockback, Disorient, -Heal, -Regen, -End, -Recover.
So, your Tank gets hit with those your Heal wont have much effect. -
Quote:Nice place, just wasn't big enough to comfortable accommodate everyone that showed up. Hadn't thought about E3, really. Have fun! I wanted to get to Comic Con this year, but I don't think that will happen.Originally Posted by Thor's Assassin
Indeed, though I think the location could of been better hehe. Always cool seeing friends in person. How ya been hon?
Oh and who's going to E3 this year? Sassy and I will be there. Will be our first.

Glad you made it to the M&G last year too, it was good seeing you again.

Quote:I've spent hundreds of hours working in my base and it's not even that large. I can only imagine how much time the more serious base builders with max size plots spend editing.Originally Posted by Residentx10
another question how many of you hang out in your base? My individual bases are functional. I don't hangout to hangout. I don't speed a lot of time doing interior decoration. I use mine mainly to craft, store, tp or heal then I'm gone.
Edit: Oh, and torches add to the lag in bases, quite a bit actually. -
Quote:Same for me. Even nicer, for things like the merge update all I had to do was leave the Launcher up and when I got home from work, click 'Play'. With the old updater, I would of had to wait until I got home from work to update. And because I sometimes work ten hour days or longer, adding another 30 to an hour or more to update basically means that I don't play that night.Originally Posted by Demobot
My experience with the launcher has been the opposite. Downloading and patching have been much faster than the old updater.

Agree, when your job is something you enjoy, it's not work. -
Quote:I'm confused, are you using the old NCsoft updater or the new NCsoft Launcher?Originally Posted by Miss Chief
And now it's running at 12kb/s and nothing has changed. This sucks!
Closed the launcher and restarted it. now 2,000 kb/s. Great, but I shouldn;t have to close it and reopen it half a dozen times to keep the speed up! -
Quote:Sorry, Hyper. Born and raised in California and I hate that cra... crud, and I refuse to call it pizza.Originally Posted by Hyperstrike
Then you have atrocities like California Pizza Kitchen *MMPHH!*
Sorry just threw up in my mouth a little...*MMPHH!* Make that a LOT.
If that's what they're calling pizza in the Cali, I never, EVER want to go back there.
Newsflash: Yet another California Pizza Kitchen has gone up in a ball of nuclear flame. This is the thirteenth one this evening... -

Quote:You mean like... The Tick... or something more original, like... Superboy?Originally Posted by Antares_NA
Well, good names, then. And not xXCorbinFisherXx the Mastermind. Or Toothbrush or whatever.
Like, actual names that actual comicbook characters would have. -
Hiya, Slick.
Any time you want to join a channel and you know the name, in your chat line you can type:
/chan_join channelname
Now, if the channel has more than one name, then the name of the channel has to be placed in quotes like:
/chan_join "channel name"
If you don't know the name you can rt-click on your chat window and click on Channel Search in the menu to bring up the Channel Search window.
There is also a Join Channel option in the rt-click menu as well.
Oh, and every time you log on, your upper chat window will tell you your global handle. You should see something like this:

Quote:I know. Memphis Bill's slipping or something.Originally Posted by Sharker_Quint 0l
I was kinda hoping you had one of those pasties for this.
Bill? You okay? Don't have a fever or anything do you? -
I survived as well.
Didn't get to post much thanks to issues with the ustream chat, but I got to watch the video and the chat at least. -
Quote:Yeah, I'm not all that impressed with In-n-Out Burger either.Originally Posted by Hyperstrike
Just makes me want to run to my local White Castle.
Maybe my palate isn't "refined" enough to appreciate In-N-Out. But I didn't find it all that special.
I wish we had a few more Sonic drive-ins though. I miss their Route 44 Lemonade Slushies. -
Quote:Silly question and you may have mentioned it and I just missed it, but is your account NA or EU?Originally Posted by Raithnor_Mal
This is more accurate, it hangs after I enter my password and click "Log in" but I do not see the EULA page in either LIVE or BETA.
I was able to run the -Verify switch, it ran, but it didn't fix the problem. Tried running the game in "Safe mode" and it didn't work either. -
Quote:"Best names" are subjective. I've seen plenty of names people have put forward in other threads as their "best names" and my first thought was... "Seriously...? You consider that a great name?" I'm sure people think the same about some of the names I've come up with.Originally Posted by Antares_NA
Finding the right name is compounded by the fact that nearly all the best names are already taken, especially if you are on a high population server. It took me nearly a month to come up with my name for my Mind/Psi Dom and now that I have him and the costume, and he's level 12, I'm thinking of re-rolling Blaster and changes the concept to better fit the name!
All the best names are not taken, because there is really no such thing as a 'best name'. -
Congratulations to all the winners!
-
Finding the right name for me is part of the fun.
There was a thread at one point, I think down in City Life that was strictly that, people would have a concept but need recommendations on a name with the requirements that it be available on the server in question.
I've seen people pose the question in here to get a name and down in the Fan Art forums as well. -
Welcome to CoX and the forums, Slick.
I love Praetoria, just need to keep an eye (or 6) out for the ambushes. Feel free to ask questions, most of us around here don't bite... well some of us don't bite... okay there a few of us that don't bite... I think.
<.<
Anyway, feel free to join the 'New Player Council' global channel to ask your questions in game. Just type /chan_join "N P C" (quotes and spaces required) in your chat and introduce yourself. There are also several other chat channels that are home to quite a few Protectorites like Protector Vigilance, or Jello Shooters, or Boarderline Insanity which houses some of the local RP'rs.
Paragon Wiki is a font of knoledge, just make sure you don't go to the wikia that one's a font of spam and malware.
One thing you may not be aware of, the game will be down for an extended maintenance tomorrow 4am-4pm Pacific for a merge of the NA and EU server list that you see on login. They will also me working on the forums at the same time, well 10am-4pm. I'm hoping that it will all go smoothly.
If you see this in time then you can chat with the devs through the day on the Paragon Studio's Ustream Channel.
Again, welcome! -
Happy Hatching Day, Janlee!

Quote:My friends and I had the same issue. Unfortunately the GM didn't show up until after we auto-completed the mission, probably about 15 minutes from the time of reporting but it was late and wee wanted to get another mission in before hitting the hay.Originally Posted by CaptainAmazing

Seems back to normal this morning, as in slow loading into a thread, if it loads at all.
