Woo !
Bang goes my social life for that weekend then
I did wonder if the Double XP would also apply to the Bonus XP you get for doing the WST. But then I noticed the WST for that w/end is Tin Mage, so it's a moot point this time I guess.
Could be interesting if they schedule another one down the line when it's one of the lower level TFs that's the WST though...
But, anyway - Woot! -
Good show!
Happy to get more involved in organising stuff as well if needed. -
Things seem to have been a bit quiet on the EERC front lately (from what I've seen anyway).
Is the group still running ? - or am I just playing at different times ?*
Had some great fun earlier in the year with some of the EERC initiatives, but I haven't seen much activity lately. Is everyone off feeding their alt-itis on the former US servers ?
*or perhaps I'm being shunned for my troller's agro stealing AoE holds 8-p -

Apologies to the folks on the Manticore TF that was taking place on Defiant this afternoon.
I (Stone Death) had a nasty crash on my machine this afternoon, and I couldn't get the game client started back up in time to rejoin the action.
Still not sure what caused the crash. Must be one of those days - my keyboard has just given up the ghost as well :s
hope you all managed to cope without my agro stealing aoe holds -
Congratulations Ice_Wall.
I've been playing this game since i4, and I've still only managed to get one lvl50, so kudos to you for this achievement

Quote:I'd like to echo that sentiment. Regardless as to whether this is about changes to Galaxy City, or some new Meteor / Comet event (or both) - I'd hope that any announcements are also made here, on the official forums, and not just limited to Facebook or Twitter.... and it will be directed via Facebook and Twitter? I hope the info will be posted--that is, officially posted--on the forums as well. Some of us don't like social networking, and I'd rather not dig through the virtual garbage on Facebook to find out information about the virtual garbage in City of Heroes.
Aside from meaning that I'd have to trawl through two more sites for information (as Chad mentions above), I'm not overly keen on making any visible links between my CoH persona (or any of my other online personae) - and my real life. Anonymity is hero's greatest power and all that (to paraphrase another hero).
Having got that off my chest, and getting down off my soapbox: Any new content or events are always a good thing, so will be interested to see how this plays out (and whether or not we will have to wait until June 2012 to see this, whatever it is)

Quote:I like these ideas - options to customize travel powers are a good thing as I see it - it allows you to create something 'unique' for your own toon.In addition to the emotes there would likely be a few travel-inspired costume pieces including but not limited to High Tech Footwear, Animated Footwear, "I <3 Paragon" tourist t-shirts, Bermuda shirts and shorts, etc.
I'm a big fan of the Rocket and Piston Boots, which look great on tech themed alts (as most of mine are), so more high tech / animated footwear options like them would be welcome. -
Same here - I queued a copy of Robo from Defiant to Beta (no warning messages) a couple of hours ago, but still no sign of my one and only lvl50 on the Beta machine yet.
Must be lost in the post -
If you start thinking about continuity in a time travel programme / film too much, you could quite easily go cross eyed

Quote:Indeed. I see a major gap in the market for this specialised "special interest" fieldI want to know more about the possibly steampunk lesbian lizard and her maid.
A really good episode - the show has really matured into a gripping drama.
A nice cliff hanger for the mid season finale. I'd rather we didn't have a mid season break at all, but if we're going to, then at least it's been done well.
It was good to see Rory's character get a bit more involved as well.
Besides, any episode with Dr Song is always going to get my vote -
Quote:I remember back in the day, when there was always a good chance of getting a team together for a Hollows run. These days, it just seems to be a bit of a ghost town*.Honestly we blow through the low level so damn quick it needs to be more interesting.
I guess we're just outlevelling the early content so fast these days - that we're not hanging around in the low level zones for long enough. Heck, the other day I found myself in a corner of Atlas Park I didn't recognise - and I was only there because I was badge hunting.
So, yeah a revamp of low level content (if that's what's on the cards) would be welcome, but if we're outlevelling the early zones quickly, will we notice any changes ?
going back to my corner now..
*At least, that's what it's like whenever I go there. Perhaps everyone is just hiding when I'm there... -
Quote:I don't think there will be that many "Former EU" players who have lvl50s on US servers that they can use for this. Except perhaps some of the more hardcore playersDon't for get that you Euro types can still take part in the American test event this evening - it's not exclusive to American accounts, just like the Euro event wasn't going to be exclusive to Europ accounts.
-
Blast! - Looks like I might end up actually doing some studying tonight
<looks around for a substitute distraction> -
Will we be able to copy characters over from the former 'Euro' servers in time for this ?
Keen to get involved with this, but not sure I'd be able to do so if I can't copy Robo over from Defiant.
(Apologies if this has already been discussed elsewhere - I couldn't see anything on this) -
-
Didn't get much chance to test this evening, but I have spotted the following:
Subjective Feedback
The projectiles for the Steampunk Rifle (I forget the name) don't 'come out' from the rifle's nossle, but just below. Not a gamebreaking issue, but it looks a bit odd.
(Tried uploading a screenshot, but having a bit of faff with that. Will see if I can do this later) -
Howdy all
Is there still any interest in this, or is everyone busy grinding for incarnate shiny these days ? -
Quote:...
once you've created a new character, head over to Atlas Park, under the Atlas statue, Mercy Island, next to Kalinda, and Nova Praetoria, next to Praetor Duncan, where representatives of the Community team will be able to teleport you all the way to Pocket D thanks to their mighty Community gathering powers!
If I can make this, do I specifically need to role a new character then ? Or can I just bring an existing one ?
Apologies, I may have missed something here (duffer that I am).

Thanks for organising the event MZ. Some very good entries, and worthy winners.
Perhaps a question for the winner to answer, but what are those gloves that Cryo Unit N-Tech is wearing?
It looks like they've got a glow to them? Or have not had enough coffee yet this morning? -

...Which I refer friends to whenever we start discussing the plausbility of any time travel films / stories - a fruitless task at the best of times (no pun intended)

Good Dr Who short though - a nice mix of geek and cheeky.

For those of us who won't be awake at 3am (BST)
, will the session be recorded, and made available for viewing after the event ?
Even though we won't be able to participate, it would still be interesting to see what was discussed.
Next stop: Paragon Studios channel on your TV -
Another vote for Cool looking here...
Robo's most powerfull attack is Total Focus, but I still prefer using Laser Beam Eyes everytime.
It's not a powerfull attack, but it's Laser Beams. From his eyes.
I've slotted it for it's Def Debuff, so it's not entirely cosmetic. Honest!
