Quote:OP threadjacked his own thread? He was just putting out the call...Originally Posted by TonyV
Well, when you did comment on her, you opened up the door. If you had just let it go, this thread probably would have been a lot more about your OP, I'm just sayin'. You kinda threadjacked your own post.
Yeah, the forums have been screwy in new ways since the maintenance. At least it keeps us from being bored by the same old predictable bugs. -

PPS: That was not a challenge.
Seriously though, i do appreciate all the work you and everyone else at PS do on our behalf. Also, the far greater grace and tolerance for intractable self-centered posterior headgarments. While i do occasionally have to exercise similar discretion, i would not be able to do it while dealing with as many people as you do.

Quote:There isn't. In fact you have to confirm every single item before claiming it by default, although there is the option to disable it.Originally Posted by Ironblade
As I recall, there is no 'Claim All' button for the 'one character only' items.
i made "hide unclaimable rewards" my default option in settings. That eliminates all of the issues the OP experienced. i'm not quite sure why it isn't the default. -

That's a diplomatic thing to say...
However I'm sure you have been informed about some of the more, shall we say, "vocal" players that are on these forums.

He's probably from the Ulster town council...
Enjoy your surveillance state.
Oh, wait, the forums are in the US.
Right. In that case welcome, Hit Streak.

The advantage 3D gives in CoH is the ability to spot side tunnels in the cave maps.

Quote:They did.Originally Posted by BellaStrega
Can't you still unlock them by leveling a villain to 50? Or did they change that?
Issue 17 lowered the requirement to level 20 to unlock EATs.
Then Freedom launched.
i'm not sure if you still have to hit 20 as a VIP to unlock them now. -

So long and thanks for all the fish. -
For what it's worth, making the same number of pieces for the male and female genders means spending about twice as much time on males since they have two models.

Quote:Ignoring that it's technically a handheld console, as a handheld it's even lower powered computationally and graphically than a regular console. This means they'd have to write a whole new client with all new models and textures for every single object and UI element in order to get CoH to run at all. Effectively they would have to assemble another Dev team equal to the one already in place remake the entire game's art assets and engine all over again. For a Sony handheld. And those have such a great record in terms of sales and longevity.Originally Posted by godeity
its not a console, it's a handheld
And then they'd have to keep a Vita Dev team on staff just to port all new content over to the Vita platform.
Y'know, i don't see how any of that could be considered an issue. We should start at once! -
Quote:He might be an old school MMO player. Back then anything higher than your ankles counted as a wall.Originally Posted by SlickRiptide
I'm curious about these walls of text you're complaining about. Most of the time, you only get something like that if you deliberately seek it out by reading mission text and/or souveniers. I'm puzzled how it could be something that's reducing your fun unless your idea of a wall is significantly smaller than mine.

Man, that dude is merciless.
Anyway, i found the article an interesting read. While it didn't give much additional insight beyond what reading the beta forums gives, it is a nice bit of publicity and handy for those who aren't VIPs and want to know more. -

* Her robots are anatomically correct.
* Her constant insistance that I call her "mommy"...
* Getting "The Silent Treatment" means she turns off your brain's ability to process sound.
* Some people have skeletons in their closet... others have cemetaries.
* "Seers" is just another word for "Snitchers"...
* Pelvic perforations from tight hugs and that lethal belt buckle of hers.
* When it comes to adoption she makes Angelina Jolie look like a child hater.
* There is NO correct answer to "Who's been a bad boy?"
* When you disagree, "Maybe I'll change my mind" is a useless argument... she's already changed it for you.
* She makes Joker look well-adjusted.
* When dating a psychotic psychic the term "getting h**d" can take on sinister meaning.
* (blank expression... monotone voice) There is nothing wrong with dating Mother Mayhem... I love Mother Mayhem... I love her more than my next breath...
* They're all female.... They're all psychics.... You don't think their cycles are all going to synch up at the same time?
* She's like Fatal Attraction... and you're the rabbit.
* She said "No"...
Edit: As an aside... I dare... I DARE... the Devs to change the cut scene to BAF for April Fool's Day... When she sort of crunches in on herself during her monologue I want that spiked belt buckle of hers to perforate one of her implants... I want that sucker to pop out and fly around the room like a punctured balloon... complete with sound effects and Nightstar/Siege watching it whiz around with their heads turning in perfect unison. -

Quote:Just for clarity:Originally Posted by Darej
This alpha power seems much better than Cardiac. Would choosing this power be worth it if the only endurance type power is Stamina? Does it affect IOs such as Numina/Miracle?
I'm thinking of more Melee type ATs.
Alpha slot powers work like enhancements slotted in any power that takes an enhancement type that is the same as what the Alpha boosts, so it has no effect on other enhancements, procs, or powers that cannot be slotted with enhancements. -
Quote:Eh, i've gone through three or four names on the forums more or less at random. Not always the most prolific poster, so no particular reason you would remember me.Originally Posted by LivingHellfire
So, first of all, hey, Kadmon! I do miss you, and the rest of Team Awesome!
Golden Girl, I remember you, hope all is well. Schismatrix, you're not familiar to me, but that doenst' really mean anything, I've been away for a while.
Also, I think it's important to remember who the REAL Living Hellfire is, and where he comes from.
There is only one Legendary Living Hellfire.
Anyway, if you can swing it i heartily suggest resubbing for maximum fun. Although depending on what tier you're at it might not be all that essential. -

Quote:To my knowledge the game has never had an exact release schedule that it's adhered to. We haven't even had the same number of issues each year. The current updating model has even added the concept of half issues in addition to adding all sorts of content in between official issues. That's why i'm also not seeing the absence of previous March releases as a compelling reason; especially considering the newer model of releasing (sometimes fairly significant) chunks of content between issues.Originally Posted by Lothic
The history of this game is certainly a data point to look at when making predictions. But I don't read too much into it because even though there may never have been an Issue launched during the month of March there is no rule or law that says that an Issue can't be launched during that month. It's pretty silly to think just because it hasn't happened yet it never will.
Still, i suppose many things are possible and at this point only the Devs really know which of the speculated dates is most likely. -
Quote:i remember you. (With your volume of posts how could i forget?) Not sure how many of the people you used to play with are still around, but Justice itself is usually around third highest load in the server list and has a very active community.Originally Posted by LivingHellfire
I used to play this a long time ago.
I played largely on Justice and posted in the Justice forums as well as general discussion, blasters, suggestions and sundry.
I'm back and trying to get in touch with some of the folks that I played with a number of years ago.
The Legendary Living Hellfire flies again!
Welcome back. Come play the game and marvel at the new shinies. -

She also makes totally awesome CoH-based comics and the heroes in them are the most interesting heroes in any comic ever made in the last 75 years.
So you think they'll let a finished issue sit on the back burner for nearly a month just to release it right before the anniversary? Pull the other one, it's got bells.Quote:Originally Posted by InfamousBrad
I think it'll be in April, on or shortly before the anniversary date of the 28th. So put me in the betting pool for the Tuesday before the anniversary, April 24th. -
Quote:Uh, no, that is not how collectors editions have ever functioned in my experience. In fact the general understanding is that any collectors edition is a limited offering aimed at collectors. Personally i have never heard of collectors editions being marketed as being available in perpetuity. Usually it's very much the opposite.Originally Posted by Godling
So the most important questions are.
1. If they are collectors edition where is there current location we can buy and collect the boxed sets?
2. What retailers are you currently using and supplying the collectors edition?
By merely stating that they are collector editions they should be available for collection at any time for any one who wants to collect them.
i have no issues with these items being offered again despite having purchased them when they were first released, but i'm not going to try to justify it by denying existing reality and substituting my own.
Edit: <snark removed> -
Quote:Welcome to the game. Yeah, the staged downloading is a fairly new feature, so it's not surprising that a bug popped up in it. It used to be that you had to install and update the entire game to play at all, and with how large it's become adding the staged approach for new installs makes sense.Originally Posted by Understray
OK, thank you for the quick response. I'm about 80% through Stage 3, so hopefully I'll be able to play soon.
i hope you enjoy your time in CoH.

Quote:*huh* That was pretty much my exact guess as to why the middle plate wasn't an option.Originally Posted by Dink
The reason there is no middle flap is because of our skinning. We can only skin one vertices to 2 Bones max and in this instance since the flap would have been in the middle it would have needed to be skinned to 3 bones (Hips, left leg and right leg). I hope this makes sense
. We do try our best to make the finished 3D look as good as we can with the resources we have. -
Quote:Eh, as far as i'm concerned selling it in the market would be fine, and that's as someone who also bought the Collector's Edition when it came out. We may have paid extra for the goodies, but it's hardly like putting them on the market would be giving them away for free either.Originally Posted by Steele_Magnolia
Because it is an exclusive item.
It was sold as part of the Collector's Edition. Take the exclusive out of the collector's edition and everyone who bought it wasted their money and will feel gypped. Without the exclusive items it was overpriced at retail and on resale markets simply outrageous. I have a friend who paid $100 for hers.
It should stay exclusive.
Someone paying $100 for theirs is rather irrelevant, really. Should all the rest of us who paid less be expected to give PS the difference in the interest of fairness?
