    It just doesn't seem so far off as it used to.
  2. So I can say that their Martial Arts looks like they took a digital motion scan of someone while they were having an epileptic seizure?

  4. There is, and it's up in the Tech section. I'll see if I can find it.
  5. Never mind, just saw that you were accessing fine wish XP. Are you going through http://boards.cityofheroes.com or the old boards url? I've heard of issues with that.

    Edit: I'm currently on a Mac and accessing fine. Have you tried OnyX? I find it works great for clearing cookies/cache.

    Otherwise, you might want to head to the Mac forums, CuppaManga has been a great help when it comes to the Macs.

    Not quite correct.Ghost Falcon explains it here. Just it doesn't drop off the edge of the forums world...

    I15 Beta Status & Future Closed Beta Qualification

    Greetings Heroes and Villains!

    We have received a lot of GREAT feedback from players, and want you to know that your comments do not go unnoticed. We recently made some changes to the Villain Strike Force in Issue 15 – Anniversary, and will be making additional changes to the Hero Task Force next week. This was all due to player feedback, and we want to thank everyone for their input.

    Please check the changes out on the Training Room, and let us know what you think!

    In an effort to expand our pool of potential Closed Beta Testers, we are looking to find players who provide us constructive feedback (both in areas we got right as well as what needs to be improved) and detailed bug notifications during this Beta.
    <ul type="square">[*]If you are interested in participating in future Closed Beta tests we encourage you to check out Issue 15 on the Training Room and post your feedback on the forums! [*]Players (in good standing) who are selected for the future Closed Beta Group will have Beta entry priority over all other players selected from our normal Beta selection methods.[/list]Remember, it’s your feedback which helps us create an experience that you enjoy. Take this opportunity to make your voice heard in the continuing development of City of Heroes!

    I have been logged into game since day 1, and I haven't gotten a beta email or access yet. Wow did I misunderstand! Or did I?

    Closed beta access for 60+ month vets was promised for the "Going Rogue" expansion only. Not for issue 16.
    And if you read the announcement in it's entirety, nowhere does it state which wave you will be invited to. It may very well be the last Closed Beta wave. One never knows.
  8. Happy Hatching Day!





    (I really need to learn how to make these things myself.)

    The Jubjub wings recipe requires salvage that is only drop by Bandersnatches, which are found in the Tulgey Woods.
    I've also heard that there is a chance to find one in a rubble pile, located in a new cave map. Don't know what the percentage drop for that is though.

    Oh, trust me, I'm not arguing against the Immob Res. My Kin/Arch would appreciate it greatly. But Siphon Speed requires a.) a fow b.) a hit. while SB does not.

    It'd be nice to have a little sumthin' sumthin' in IR.

    Well, the Dev's are authorized to release certain details, players are not.
  16. Well, we all saw what happened with last issue's Open-Closed Beta. A bunch of people getting on test, seeing it buggy,then running right to the boards complaining on how "This is a buggy POS "How could the Dev's release something like this!! ZOMG!!111!!eleventy-eleven!!11!!!!!

    To which BaB's responded "Welcome to day 1 of closed beta. Told you guys it wasn't as fun as you all seemed to think they were."

    Closed Beta is not some exclusive club, to which you need the secret password in order to get in. And as for the so-called "elite" you speak of, if you mean players that along with just playing the game, the also have the dedication to pound/peck/twist/contort something so see if they can break it, and report their findings to the Dev's, then yes, I suppose there are an "elite" class of players. They would be the ones you don't hear saying "Why should I do the Dev's job for them?" They are the one's that do this out of their love for the game.
