  1. lets not forget that it's not just MMs pets that are affected by the melee bug. Other pets like Phantoms, which also do not have any melee attacks, also run into melee range

    It's reduced to microfiche and sent by pigeon.
    that's too hi-tech! It has to be hand carved in megaliths and transported using Ancient Egyptian methods
  3. sounds like the usual pet AI antics in flight form to me

    However... brain missed a cycle and I had to re-read that... are you saying that the programming is done at a completely separate site from where the servers are stationed? Is the compiled code physically transferred from site A to B (You said the code can't just be e-mailed), or is it still electronically transferred, but the ENTIRE codebase is transferred every time? I can't pretend to know how things are set-up there, but it sounds terribly inefficient, and I can easily think of several ways to improve the efficiency of the system.
    This was my thinking too, and it seems NC have just 1 Ops and QA team to cover all their games publishes/live tests - probably 2 people in total :/
  7. I wonder which issue will be codenamed Rentokil
  8. And here I was thinking that Beta testing was supposed to be for finding bugs that could be resolved before going live. I must've had a blonde moment

    Sig arc part #3

    It's to do with Manticore's poison arrow after effects being immortal and not dissipating, and so is still considered as a threat. Just happened to me

    because it means they are actually doing something to either a) add content or b) patch stuff, both of which are good things

    I'm guessing you have the same gui colour for all characters. I have completely different colours for each. The first character I log in with has the default colour, when I change it to the custom colour, log out and then log into another character, it retains the previous character's custom colour, and so on...

The company gets your money one way or the other.
    and won't be able to post here
  16. yes, and http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=271953

    as a workaround I've set window colour macros for all of my characters using the "window_color x x x x" slash command
  17. considering both sides have their own portal areas in the 40-50 zones, why not add in a Shard portal to GV that allows Villains to zone to an Arachnos base on one of the other floating land masses in FBZ, or even to the main FBZ staging area.
  18. yup, been a member of AO's forum for 6+ years, which currently runs on 3.8.6, and have never ever had the login issue in that time

    Bug management and resolution is a tedious, boring, resource-hungry necessity with any program.
    completely agree. And with all this new content being added we are seeing even more bugs that are bothering more fractions of a percent of people
  20. I've just set a window colour macro to each of my characters, so when I log in to each I can quickly reset it to the colour I wanted - waste of a tray slot, maybe, but at least it doesn't make it a huge issue now
  21. I always look out for CoH stuff in BBT. Love this show, absolutely my favourite.
  22. I just hope that this complete neglect of the forums is due to a new improved version being developed. If not, then they should fire whoever maintains it, because a dead horse could maintain a healthy life with far better success.
