    Sure, as long as the ceiling cap is 20' so that you would have to dodge every mob that Super Speeders have to.
  3. This so going the way of the thread where someone complained about the monthly fee for CoH. With the $900 a month he was spending on XBox/PS#/pr0n/movies/his brother 'the maid', he felt that $15 a month for a 5yo game was unacceptable. -.-

    So even using that twisting of words, this current CB is still *not* GR's closed beta...especially since it's explicitly being called "Issue 17 Closed Beta". Therefore, the Loyalty program, Vet badges and whatever else they said would get you into the Closed Beta for Going Rogue does not apply for what is currently on test. Since it's *not* the Closed Beta for Going Rouge.
    Far too logical, Furio. Which we know has no place in the forums, and could likely get you burned at the stake for heresy.

    Artz!

    I remember seeing the first one in The Scoop, great action shot. And I love the pose on the third one (Roxy) nice work on the hands.
  6. Here's the Name Change thread, it tells you where to send you the request.
  7. Let me see if I got this straight.

    You got 1 free character slot.
    A free pet (sure it doesn't do anything, but at least you don't have to clean up after it.)
    A free Longbow Chaser for your base

    As well as what 8? 9? free Issues.

    And you're complaining about this why?

    this was when they where testing duel pistols

    Loyalty Program participants, Veterans and Hero-Con Attendees…today is the first opportunity for you to see your devotion to City of Heroes® pay off!

    now ultra mode should not be part of that but demon summoning would get any of the above into closed beta i would think.
    I did a ctrl+F on that post you linked to, and when I typed in 'day one' it said "Phrase not found"

    TJ was correct, people get invited in waves, no ones status guarantees which wave they get in one. A 60 month Vet could get invited the first day, or in the final week of Closed Beta. I got into I13 or 14 CB because of HeroCon attendance in '08. You know when I got in? 3 days before it went to Open Beta.

I just want to shoot it from the hand...that and the new Praetoria PD 'cannon gloves' to go with it ^^
    So far I've changes about 1/3 of my Sonic/Sonics sounds, that one gives me migraines, and if there happens to be two of us on a team. O.O

    I'd love an off-line app that basically listed all of the powersets, with a library of sound files to select from.

    Dechs, the last line in your sig actually makes sense now.

    o.O

    O.o


  11. To the OP the easiest solution around idiots like that is to start your own team and Broadcast "Sewer Team lfm ALL AT's welcomed".

    Or use global channels, I watch/use those much more than Broadcast.
  12. Logging on in 'Safe Mode' maybe? That little check box near to the 'Next' button on the Launcher.
  13. This appears to be an issue with AdBlock Plus and Firefox 3.6 as it occurs on the Mac at work and my PC at home, but does not happen with AdBlock Plus on Firefox 3.5 at the other store.
  14. Like the new Avatar Flux.

    For 'Insert' I only see one possible choice...

    Trick Arrow/Archery Defender

    And there's the new Super-Sidekicking (SSK) too, no more having to find an appropriate level mentor for a lowbie. Now the entire team is Sidekicked/Exemplared to the mission holders level.

    And when you Exemplar down, you still get XP (well, as long as you haven't hit 50.)

    Edit: And if you haven't already found out by now, level restrictions were removed from Hazard Zones.

    I'm recalling a particular CLOpen Beta and the resulting comments, which sounded pretty much like what Zander just typed out. It was very counter- productive.
  24. It's the history of the EATs that are 'Epic' not getting to 50, and not the EATs themselves.
