Plan Z (and I will be really disappointed if it doesn't involve breaking into a secret military research facility in Nevada and steal a zombie virus so they can release it on the world) is probably not going to destroy the world. Unless, of course, it really is a zombie apocalypse.

Case in point: this thread started as an innocent question about what some people intend to do once the game shuts down. Then it degraded into a discussion about how people who hope to do something after CoH is dead are stupid, and how anyone who think those people are stupid are soul crushing jerks.

Surprisingly, it went downhill from there.

I don't know, are you in the camp who doesn't want anyone to ruin your blissful (and largely self-fabricated) hopefulness, or the camp that think hope is stupid and goes out of their way to crush it wherever they can?

What I want is to still have a CoH to play on December 1st. Baring that, it'd be nice not to loathe the forums for the last few days we have left. You have an entire lifetime of bickering left in you, if that's your jolly. Knock yourself out once they pull the plug.

That would indeed be glorious.

And while I realize it doesn't actually do anything, I really enjoy making them charge into walls and trees.

There's been a few recent instances of kickstarter games passing that goal easily (such as Star Citizen and Project Eternity - PE reaching more than Four million in just two weeks), but yeah. Two mil sounds ambitious.

Sounds fantastic. Like they took everything that turned me off of Cataclysm and magnified it by a thousandfold.

And if you don't have a friend like that, odds are you're that friend. So be careful.

To be fair, in this case she bases it on a conversation between Zwill and Black Scorpion, going something like:

Andy: "So, I think we can tell them now."

BS: "Nah, I checked with HR and we can't say anything before tomorrow."

And, also, they did. These "next great adventures" were talked about after their contracts with NCSoft was up yesterday. See else-thread. Of course, it has nothing to do with CoH, but I don't think GG was implying as much.

You really bring out the best in any thread you visit, don't you.

I'm sure the other side just stands there and watches on the sideline, right? It's not like they would ever dream of doing anything to influence voters in their favour.

Also, this calls for an oldie but goodie:

I thought it was on by default in GW2. I know I turned it off first chance I got, so there should at least be an option for it somewhere.

I still think the best solution is to have both. For instance, it really irks me in GW2 that one character has to take up valuable storage space from all my other characters, just because there's some armour pieces that I kinda-sorta like the look of and don't want to throw away.

If GW2's storage system also had personal storage space, it might deserve the 'incredible' label.

It was a strange choice to include strict solo-only content, though I'm not convinced it's that much worse than the team-only content that no one blinks at.

That said, however, I do kinda like the solo-dungeons as a "build check". That is, as an excuse to look into the viability of your build. On teams you can get away with not looking at it too hard. Solo-dungeons can be a rolled up newspaper to the nose. In that regard, I feel they do serve a purpose.

It's still an odd choice though.

More like pleasantly surprised.

Funny story: I used to invert the mouselook in every other game to match CoH, because I'd grown so accustomed to that setup. It was only fairly recently that I finally accepted that every other game ever made did it wrong, and forced myself to switch it in CoH.

Post policies aside, dying excessively is certainly no fun. Perhaps there's something we can do to help? I haven't done any dungeons in the game yet, so I'm not much use there, but what exactly are you struggling with? How far along in the game are you? Do you have a character name so we can snoop your setup on the secret world chronicle?
