  1. Anyone else here using Windows 7? I just installed it and CoH seems to run a bit more choppy than it used to.
  2. I have 2 accounts. One of them has 51 months and the other has 39 months.

    That's 90 months - way more than these 63 month dweebs. :P
  3. I only know 1 person who's in closed beta and he/she is a 63 monther.
  4. The last pic looks good. The only thing that kinda sticks out too much is the chest emblem. I dunno if you can try making the white black, or picking a different cross emblem?

    Everything else looks good though.

  6. I'm excited about this issue, not only for what it offers, but what it opens the door to.

    - Possible alternate animations for more power sets. At this point, I think even NEW animations are possible, considering the size of their team now.

    - New auras and costume colors. It's been suggested I think (by players, not devs), that with the new palettes for some powers, there needs to be an expanded costume palette to match. And while it might not have been suggested yet, I hope the devs can borrow some of the fx from powers to use as auras. For example, as a fire blaster, your hands light on fire when you press an attack, even if there's no enemy near by. If we could keep that on at all times, it would be awesome.

    Note the color discontinuity between the 'Desire' and 'Sleeve' and 'Disco' and 'Heel 2'. The 'Tops with Skin' and 'Bottoms with Skin' options are slightly blended with skin color whereas the the boots and sleeves are not. It's distracting and takes away from the costume.

    This could be corrected, or at least matched more closely with a better color picker.
    Actually I think the problem there lies with the texture. They look more transparent than off color.

    Yeah I was at comic con, playing with I-16 and I definitely did NOT get into closed beta.

    Nothing to do?

    I scour the internet for undiscovered I-16 screenshots. Then I talk to all my friends on AIM or in game to see if they got a beta invite. Then I try and convince them to let me log in.
  10. I'm not sure if this will work, but I want to try and actually share some of my costumes with you guys, rather than just show them off.

    So what I'm gonna try to do is show you guys the picture and then underneath, attach a link to the actual costume file and list what booster packs I used.

  11. Again, you're missing the point of my thread. It's to UPLOAD costumes, not just share screenshots. I'll make a new thread in the screenshots forum though, so mods feel free to delete this one.
  12. Give 5 different types of brawls to lvl 1 characters? Sounds interesting.
    All with animations and recharge times identical to brawl.

    that would actually be quite fun. Button spamming at it's finest.
  13. I like most of your ideas and I'll add a couple things.

    While I was testing the new character creator at Comic Con, i was bothered by trying to turn my character around, so I could see his powers go off. I can't remember if they put this feature in at Comic Con, but there should be a way to click the color bar again and have it roll up, leaving wide open space to see the power FX.

    Also, maybe use a (+) (-) labels so people will know that the menu's expand or collapse. Maybe an up or down arrow might look better.

    And as for the coloring option, I was so excited when they let you save costumes as a text file. First thing I did was edit the RGB values on my Cop and gave him beige pants and shirt, so his uniform is nearly identical to the California Highway Patrol. Then they put out a patch that invalidated the RGB values that weren't part of the palette and I was a Sad Panda I think I let my sub go inactive for a few months after that.

    Anyway, the only thing I disagree with is giving the advanced color options to vets. Maybe just unlock them again when the costume loader goes to validate RGB values. I don't think a new player would go to the trouble, or even figure out how to give themselves flesh toned colors.

    We need Orangish reds, super light golds, slightly green or purple blues. It would make costume possibilities 100x better.

    Funny thing is, that would actually clear up a lot of confusion.
  15. Well maybe and actual moderator can move it where he/she thinks it should go, but for now I'm leaving it here.
  16. Not really. You guys have any costume files you wanna upload to this thread?
  17. You guys are a couple of party poopers, ya know that?
  18. Well I don't see people sharing their costume files and that's what I'm doing in this thread.
  19. That thread is dated though. I wanted to start a new one where people can not only look at the costumes, but download and use them as well.
  20. I'm not sure if this will work, but I want to try and actually share some of my costumes with you guys, rather than just show them off.

  21. I have a feeling I-16 will go live Sept. 1st.

    Even more likely is Aug 31st, since it's on a monday.
  22. I'm so desperate for more I-16 previews that I've been scouring the internet for more previews. I've found some here with none other than Positron himself showing them off.

    Can I come over?


    But seriously... I'm a fan of leveling fast, but the there needs to be some way to rid atlas of the LF FARM spam. I have no problems with farming, but new players that come to atlas will have way to much chat to scroll through, before they can figure out what's going on.

    And no, AE is not going to kill CoX. And even farmers don't just stick to AE content. Maybe people who race to 50, do it so they can spec out their character ASAP for pvp or concept.

    I've played this game for 5 years and I don't feel like taking my time leveling up characters anymore. Now with IO sets and Uniques, lvl 50 is just a checkpoint in reaching your goal for your character.

    Seriously, if CoH adopts CO's version of a single server system, I might as well play CO.

    It's one thing that really turns me off from CO. That and they have no atlas park, where you can socialize right out of character creation.
