thank you very much!

Anyone?

Hey I'm 44 on my tank, he is my highest toon thus far. I've began doing some pvp on him and found myself stuck with a few questions.

How good is Resist Physical Damage, Resist Elements, Resist Energies, tough hide, and invincibility in pvp? Also, are any of the epic power pools good for pvp? I am currently trying conserve energy and laser eye beams.

Thank you!

I spoke with the IT guys here and all the ports are open besides TCP ports 135, 139, and 445. UDP ports 137 and 138 so that shouldn't effect me. Man i'm really at a loss, i was able to log on again today for a bit after a long time of trying. Once again it says i cant connect to the login server. 99% of the time i spend 4 minutes waiting to log in just to get that message.

I downloaded the free 14 day trial of CoH

I installed the patcher and downloaded the game, but it won't seem to let me connect to the login server when i run the game. I lowered all my firewalls. I am on vista running on a new laptop.
It has let me connect and brought me to the server selection screen once, but once I clicked a server it brought me to the same message saying it couldn't connect to the login serer. This happened with several servers. At one point i was able to log in and create a character but once i logged out i have not been able to get in since (with repeated tries for over 2 hours) I am connected to the internet via wireless through the University of Maryland so i'm not using a router. Other games i play work fine and i don't have problems connecting. The antivirus programs i use are Norton Internet Security and the free version of AVG. My windows firewall and my Norton firewall are both lowered so i have no firewalls up at all when i try connecting.

Not a technical guru but if the university is blocking certain things from going through their firewalls the problem may lie there. You may have to contact their IT department to see.

Also you may want to make sure certain ports are open..

Lastly... Haveing multiple Antiviris software running at the same time is not a great thing as far as resources goes...

Welcome to the community by the way.

Thanks man, yeah I think I'll uninstall AVG for the time being.

I was afraid that that i may have to contact our IT people here, oh well. I'll check out the port stuff right now then post back.

But regarding that port business, i HAVE been able to log on and play without getting DC'd like i said above, if those ports were never open to begin with, shouldn't i have never been able to log in in the first place?

Thank you again.
