They may still be having problems with the Store - they were earlier today - and it's possible that accounts/slots/etc. originally purchased through the store may be unavailable until it's back up.

I know that is true for extra character slots bought from the store, dunno about second accounts tho.

As long as we're on Cones - I have a question...

Say I target a guy, fire the power as he's moving, and by the time it actually animates and fires, he has run past me.

Will the power hit the enemies that WERE near him when I actually FIRED the power? Or will it only hit enemies near him when we actually SEE the power go off?

You might get a more enthusiastic response to this particular kinda question from the scary tech-heads who lurk in the Tech Issues & Bugs forum (<--linky).

Folks here are whizzes with in-game questions like Where do I get a Cape? but many of the really tech-savvy types lurk elsewhere (no offense intended Awesomus!).

*hands The Lone Hero a 'goodie'*

Happy Birthday to YOUUUUU!

One important thing you missed is that everyone is now very enthusiastic about Setting their LF Flags in-game (when appropriate).

As a result, PuGging is easier and more fun for everyone!

All the cool kids are doing it, jump on board!

Guys I think GR-Beta stuff belongs on the Closed Beta forums.

Talking about Closed Beta issues on the Open forums is a no-no that can (will) get this thread deleted, and *could* lead to you getting kicked from the Beta and never invited to any others.

In before the Delete!

I don't Twit, on moral grounds

But wanted to thank you in advance for putting in the time and effort to keep us all informed.

I'll be anxiously awaiting a "wrap-up" post compiling your "best of" stuff when it's all over.

Thanks again, Marcian!

Inspired by Dechs' thread born of BillZ's thread...

Was hoping to inspire heroes to start pushing habitual use of the Search Flags (LFT/LFAny/LFTFs/etc.).

As a regular PuG builder/leader, I've noticed a remarkable decline in the number of people taking time (2 seconds?) to set these (when appropriate).

And yes, many team builder/leaders REALLY DO hit up appropriately-flagged players FIRST!

With GR right around the corner, new or returning players are popping in here, and in the Players Questions section, to say Hi and ask for advice.

Wouldn't it be great if we made a point of suggesting appropriate use of these flags with every Welcome/Welcome Back response?

Just talk it up or mention it in passing to new/returning players, like it's a standard thing to set your Flag every time you log in (again, when appropriate).

And "lead by example"? If Vet players get back to using them, themselves, and advocating for their use, the "movement" could really snowball and (too much to hope for?) we might even see these Flags become truly useful.

Welcome back to both of you!

So great to see so many people coming back as we approach GR release!

Have fun heroes!

I agree, that case might inject some...*shudder* light into my gaming cave.

Then I'd have to find a new cave.

I feel guilty every minute I spend taking care of stuff solo (selling, crafting, training, etc), rather than Leading one of my PuGs.

Oddly enough (and modesty aside), I've gotten so good at Leading PuGs that I feel I *owe* it to other players to Form and Lead a kick-*** PuG every time I'm on, to help them level quickly and have a blast in the process.

So, I enjoy the Multi-player aspect of this game too much to Hide. I have stacks n stacks of single-player game DVDs. If I want to "Hide", I close CoH and boot up one of those.

Heroes he only got 5 polite, accurate Replies in less than 5 minutes.

Y'all slackin.

Pixel wins VIA CHEATING!!!

Still a Win.

When PuGging on Freedom, I like to punctuate my nightly formation of a full, 8-player team in under 5 minutes by stating in Team chat:

"Voila - a full, 8-player team in under 5 minutes without a single Blind Invite! The game is surely dying DoooooooooooM!"

To which the usual reply is 3 or 4 members immediately Quitting 'cause I'm such a wierdo.

Giving me the opportunity to do it again!

I find that drawing oddly hilarious and somewhat disturbing...

F is going on there?

I've had it with all you hero-types being all kind and helpful!

The correct Interwebz reply to this is: "LERN 2 SEARCH N00b!"

sheeesh.

freakin' heroes.

LOL @ Full-Service Scamming, Dumple.

Awright inmates - fer our next mandatory yoga exercise we're a-gonna try the UPWARD Facing Dawg. THAT'S RIGHT AH SAYD "UPWARD"!
