    Boom crash!

    I had just finished making my last character filling my last character slot on my 3rd account..... I think it's a sign.

    Controversial .... with an "o" rather than the "a". Space Cop, patrolling spelling from Earth's high orbit!

    Are we sure about this? It seems like the names I'm searching for (most) come up with no global attached.
  5. I'm starting this ... poll... in the spirit of loving the City of Heroes game and wanting to open up the opportunities for more creativity by the players who actively invest in and participate in the game.

    Many character names are "reserved in the abyss" on game accounts that have not been active since before Global Handles were instituted. The folks who have those accounts who have long-since not returned have not invested their time, energy, and funds in this game through thick and thin. It is the hope of this player that the character names sitting unused for so long by these long-stagnant accounts are freed up for the active community to enjoy.

    It is a shame that inactive accounts/players who have not been back since before Global Handles serve to limit the opportunities of committed players. Here's hoping we can have those names freed up, and the active players (and new players!) can bring some great heroes and villains to life.

    If you agree, please /yes.... if you don't, I'd love to hear from you too and /no

  6. Alright, consider this closed, I'll open up a poll thread.

    But I can see where people would rather smile and nod because culture has dumbed down things to the point where it's okay to ignore canon.

    Let me ask you this:

    If CoH totally broke canon and rewrote the entire thing to the point where it was nothing like we've learned, would you be happy? Or should I just say, "Hmm.. you've played for 5 years and pumped your money into this product... too bad! They aren't making this for you anymore... it's now marketed to a whole new demographic. Get over it."

    Game: Star Wars Galaxies. Killed my inner child over a period of 2 years. Anyone remember when the game launched they touted it taking place during the pivotal time between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back?.... Perfect example of killing a concept that didn't need killing. The GI Joe movie is no different. If they honored the canon, the folks who were once kids and spent so much time with it would have loved it, and it could easily work for a new generation. Why do Hollywood screenwriters think they have the new special sauce to add everytime they get their hands on an old beloved franchise? Monkey-munchers.

  9. I feel an Osmond moment coming on....

    "One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl! Ohhh give me one more try, before you give up on LOVE!"

    *does a little dance, drops team, and reports the tool*

    I have been playing for 4 months. I recently found I had access to the Valkyrie and Cyborg packs. I also found out I could apply auras and capes to all newly created toons. Will this problem be fixed or do I have to do something for it to be fixed? I typed the /petition in after I read the motd. Nothing happened. I am not sure how this all works. Could someone explain to me what I am to do?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You need to type "/petition vet rewards" (No quotes) You need to specify something after /petition It uses this as the subject of your petition.

    A staff powerset would be awesome. I can picture the thousands of old guy clones with canes beating up hellions in atlas park while screaming "Get off my lawn!"

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That would be more believable with old guys wielding shovels. We can already do that.
  14. Hmm... how about in... i18 we get vehicles. SG/VG vehicles that require 4 players to man, and you can fly them around Paragon City (if a villain group) or Rogue Isles (If you're a hero group) in specific zones.

    Pew pew pew!.... "Uh oh, hang on we're going in for a crash landing!"..... "Aim for City Hall!".... BOOM!

    I have to say the idea of the MA system was a good one. Allow people to tell the back stories of their characters and/or other stories.

    The problems with the "Farms" being created is on that even the devs should have been able to predict. I for one saw it coming. The only REAL solution to end farming in the MA system is to remove xp altogether and just issue tickets and badges...will not stop farming but will stop xp farming. Then the MA system can return to what it originally was meant for.

    Since MA has been introduced everywhere I have been has been a ghost town (on pinnacle, freedom, virtue and triumph) where I can not find anyone running regular in game missions. Why bother when you can get from 1-50 in a couple days.

    I will wait it out a month or so but really do not see this game as one I can actually continue playing since the core missions are slowly being phased out with no post 50 content of interest being added. Certainly hope I am wrong in this and that they work more on content instead of systems that will most likely be used as exploits with most of the player base then completely empty once it can no longer be taken advantage of.

    This of course is just my opinion and feedback to the developers.

    Subjective:

    I really like the above suggestion of removing XP gain from AE missions. This would be a great way to reduce the feverish farming going on, and align the use of the AE missions for what they were meant for... Content! Farming is definitely throwing the ecomomy for a loop, and allowing for people to level up 30+ full level 50 characters in a week is not what the Developers intended for this game i'm sure (I know an individual who has done this). C'mon developers, think "balance" please.

    One word of caution:

    While purchasing this pack and you click on the Confirm purchase button....and it takes so long that your browser window times out...do not hit refresh or you will have bought to packs like me

    Not to big of a deal for me, I had another account that I was able to apply the second one to.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    From what I can see you can't apply the code to another account. How did you do this?
  17. Question for you all. I have a British hero, and some of his backstory revolves around interaction with MI6 and British Monarchy. Anyone know if there is a King or Queen in this timeline?
