No, I wouldn't - and I'd agree, if something like this ever DID come about, it should be a base-only type of thing.
'If' I ever bought one, it'd only be because I could put it in my base. -
Another shortcut is to see if anyone in the Globals is running it and jump in on the last mission.
I often hear people calling it out to see if anyone needs to access Midnighter's and allow stragglers to join up just to gain access. -

I'm talking about the actual login name, not the global handle.
In that case, here is the answer you seek:
As for renaming/deleting the login name, they do not currently allow that, I know, I've tried.Quote:Originally Posted by Avatea
3- What will happen if my European account name is the same as someone else’s in North America?
We wanted to keep this process as simple and manageable as possible to allow European and North American accounts to access all City of Heroes servers. All European accounts with a name conflicting with a North American account will be prepended with an “EU”. For instance, let’s take a hypothetical European account called “Cityof”. Pre-pended with “EU” would make it “EUCityof”. That is the only change to account names in that respect. We determined that this was the lowest number of users that would be affected by this account name change. North American accounts with conflicting names won’t be affected by this change. -

On this day of merriment, frivolity and green beer, I come to you bearing updates.
So let's get down to Brass Tacks (yeah yeah...). We've been in serious discussion regarding many of the concerns expressed here. While some of our planning is still nascent, and as such I cannot go into a great deal of detail regarding our intent, I can state the following:
- To those stating we should not move forward with the Global Server Access plans, we cannot consider this. For a number of operational reasons, it's important that we move forward with Global Server Access.
- For those of you who have known conflicting @Global chat handles due to having accounts in both the NA and EU account database: We will be offering a reactivation weekend for those with inactive accounts on NA servers and active accounts on EU servers. This will coincide with the ability to rename your @Global chat handle prior to the database merge.
- We are currently investigating options to free up @Global chat handles off of inactive trial accounts. Please keep in mind, we will only do this if it does not present a considerable amount of risk.
We're going to make every effort we can to ensure that your in game persona remains as intact while presenting the least amount of risk to character records as possible. As someone who's job it is to manage online communities and provide a place for people to build relationships, I understand the importance of your virtual identity and the value you're placing on it.The answer to your question, is yes.Quote:Originally Posted by Orion_Star_EU
Is it possible to delete or rename one of my US trial accounts so I can keep my EU account username when the database is merged? -
M-F get up at 6:30, depending on traffic and weather 1-2hr drive to work so I generally make it home about 7:30-8pm, then dinner. That up at 6:30am means that I can no longer play until 1-2am.
Weekends, I gt to take care of things I couldn't during the week so that I find that I'm still not getting on until the late evening. -
Yes please.

Has anybody else had a problem with warehouses? After two years of playing, I've recently encountered a new, well-lit room in warehouses where the graphics seem to lag. (i.e. movement slows down, becoming choppy or jerky) This room is much brighter than the other warehouse interiors and has two elevated sections on opposite sides that are reached via ramps.
I've tried fiddling with the graphics options, but haven't been able to fix the problem. It's reached the point where I groan every time I get to a mission site and it's a warehouse.
Has anybody else experienced this? If so, were you able to fix the problem?
Thanks. -

I'm lazy and I hate respeccing.
As for my thoughts on why others haven't respec'd out of Fitness, I couldn't care less.
Playing the game = Fun
Respec'ing a level 50 ≠ Fun -
Thanks, Fulmens. With your matching funds my little VG now has a tidy 1.4mil+ in Prestige. Maybe now, I can have another Porter room.

Quote:And Striga is just fine the way it is. I enjoy the story arcs out there. Most people don't got out there because there is nothing to do, they don't go out there because they feel that it is out of the way. There are probably just as many that don't.Originally Posted by Cptn_Courageous
Gee something really needs to be done with Boomtown. Striga is nearly deserted most of the time more needs to be done with it. The PvP zones are mostly desterted there's no real pressing reason to be there... They need more zones for 40's level heroes, Paragrine Island is way too small, and portal missions get boring after a while--it's like doing train missions over and over. There needs to be more going on in Eden and Crey's Folly. Something could be done in the way of underwater adventures with Talos.

Dude there's 40+ zones heroside and the games population is spread across 15 servers and three factions. On top of all that the game is heavily instanced, meaning people spend most of their time inside of missions. So, there will always be virtually empty zones. Get used to it.
Please refrain from stating your opinion as fact.
Forbin's comment was valid, your reply was juvenile.Quote:Originally Posted by Cptn_Courageous

Quote:That's what I meant. Thank for clearing it up, Zombie Man.Originally Posted by Zombie Man
If you enlarge the pic (magnify window in browser) you'll see the RWZ contact is green... a minor icon.
I think Red meant to say "though they show a minor arc icon, the RWZ contacts are considered Major story arcs" instead of "though they show no icon, the RWZ contacts are considered Major story arcs." -
Quote:I'll do that tonight, thanks Fulmens.Originally Posted by Fulmens
Send me emails in game, to @Boltcutter , (with your forum name in the message so I know who's who) and I will either meet up with you (if we're both on and it's convenient) or email you the inf for burning.
The goal is to simplify the whole "what's your global" dance I always end up doing.
Ed: Diggis, I'll probably do it again in the fall. I show no signs of going anywhere. -

For those that want to know the difference, the way the arcs currently display in-game is..
The upgraded one by Zombie Man...
I know which one I prefer.
Edit: Oh, and though they show the green Minor arc icon, the RWZ contacts are considered Major story arcs, except for Borea's 'paper' missions. -
I'd like to take you up on that offer, Fulmens. Protector redside for the max 200mil.

That's odd.
What you might have to do is log into a character that does work and send a petition, indicating the names of the characters that you can't log into. -
Quote:I think that Nate was thinking the question referred to Power Pools. I for one, certainly hope so.Originally Posted by Zombie Man
Ummm... The Incarnate 'pools' *are* customizable. Anyone who went on Beta during the Sneak Peek and Limited Open Beta knows that. The UI is there... we're waiting on the animations being re-done to be customizable.Quote:
Q: Are the new incarnate powers going to be customizable, and will we get customizable epic pools?

Nate: We're always trying to expand the power customization options, and a lot of the problems there are in the UI. We are looking to do that though.
No more yellow pompoms, please! -
/agree
3. Enforce the signature max image size restrictions. -

This happens on Synapse as well, on a similar looking map (abandoned office). It seems like it tends to be in that one big room that has 2 levels, with a hole on the top level you can jump down. Maybe not, but that's what I'm remembering.This is helpful and helps narrow it down, when I run into these hidden spawns I do a /whereami to get the exact map and put that in my bug as well.Quote:Originally Posted by Mephe
That is exactly where we saw the red arrow on the map for the last mob. in that room, problably under the floor. None of our AOEs could hit it. I bet you its the mound of crud under the hole on the floor that makes the mob get pushed under the floor because they otherwise would get stuck in the mound of debris.

I'd still like an alternative to Pocket D.
Can we get some nice restaurants/pubs. Every time I'm wonder around Nerva, I see some really nice outdoor seating. Yet the only 'social' indoor atmosphere (leaving certain aspects aside,) are the bars Pocket D which have all the atmosphere of a college town dance club the morning after a weekend party. The Tiki Club is nice, but it is not accessible to everyone.
Seating is lacking or unusable, the place is never clean and most of the bar stools have been stolen.
It'd be nice if there were several locations throughout the zones that are restaurants on the outside, and if you click on the door, you enter someplace like this...

Welcome to the game Abbadon.
What would I recommend for servers?
Well, that's the great thing about CoX, you get 12 free slots on every server. I recommend that you roll a character on every one of them and check them out for yourself. Just remember, there are jacktards on every server and they are not the norm in CoX. If you run into one don't take their comments or actions to be indicative of the rest of the players on that server.
One place you should definitely head to is the Mentor Project thread. There you will find people that have made themselves available to answer question, give hints and tips, or even mentor you if that is your need, as you explore the world. I personally play on Protector and Justice.
Join the 'N P C' channel to ask your question of Mentors within the game itself. To join the channel just type in your chat line /chan_join "N P C" (the spaces and quotes are required.)
Most importantly, have fun. -
Past the cutoff time, but I wanted to put it up anyway just for gits and shiggles.
1. I can't ******* take you anywhere!
2. Dude... you know that I can like, see you, right?
3. I'm not as think as you drunk I am!
4. I'm ready for my closeup, Raoul.
5. Man, if I had worn my red shirt I'd be so worried right now.
6. Now remember how I told you how to stack yourselves in there, the photographer for the Guinness Book of World records is going to be here any minute. -
Well, got it downloaded and installed without a hitch. All three versions got connected to and updated. All in all, including updating Test and Beta I think it took less than 20 minutes.

Quote:The new Launcher will also allow you to run multiple instances of the game with nothing more than clicking a check box.Originally Posted by Zandock
You can do this with the current launcher, too. Just takes a bit of finagling with your shortcut. Cuts out a lot of time, so I only launch the updater when I actually need to update something.
