This is pretty dumb - what was wrong with one German mod, one French mod, one English mod?

They are just stopping to support a game that they think is slowly dying.
And not only that, we are now getting charged for extra content too.

Sad.

Well, they're not actually stopping the support - we've still got a French mod and an English one, like we've had since the start - but the German mod will now divide his or her time between CoH and GW.

[/ QUOTE ]
Well, the German support is as good as dead now.
As for the rest. We'll have to see what the future will bring.

Spandex in space. Hmm, I think that's a Federation specialty. I'd be more interested in playing Klingons, which would then be chainmail (more or less) in space actually.

Well, I have been playing CoH since beta with a few pauses in between, so this could be just another pause.
But this time it feels more like a definite good bye. Should I come back though, then it's definitely going to be quite a few month away from now.

Hehe, thanks everyone. I seriously doubt I'll be back, but I won't make the mistake and say never.

Never say never as you never know.

Weeping and wondering why they ever left spandex for chainmail

I'm actually changing the spandex for a Spaceship.

I know, it's against forum rules, but sorry here it goes...

I decided to stop playing CoH/CoV.

Over the recent weeks I have been playing less and less and with one of the recent patches also some graphical and lag issues arose.
And after realizing that I even didn't try to fix those issues, I decided it's time for me to go.

I just want to thank everyone. My CoH/CoV experience has been a great one and this is truly one of the best MMO's around at the moment.
It's definitely the best MMO community.

Well, I like keeping things short. So enjoy CoH/CoV everyone and see you in CoH2.

My subscription lasts for another 30 days or so, so I might pop into the forums now and then.

Hmmm, I don't know but somehow I'm dissapointed by I13.

While the features are nice and can bring some great content, it very much sounds as if NCNC is slowly withdrawing from supporting the game that much.
Sounds more like, here you go do your own stuff, we'll concentrate on CoH2 now.

Don't get me wrong, it's much better then just stopping to support the game that much (and as I said, some great content can be player generetad now), but it doesn't feel for me at all like the large issue they promised.

So I'm simply dissapointed.

And yes that's my own personal oppion, just to let people know before I get flamed.

With that much time to go don't you think it's a but premature to start talking about "doubt" "disappointment" and being "frightened"?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, it's my personal opinion.

Very interesting, but what I'm slowly wondering about is, are we down to one Issue per year now?

I know, it sounds like a rant but it's not.

I'm really just wondering if we are going to see I13 this year.
I slowly start to doubt that.

So far no announcements yet and even if they announce it now, it will take them some to start closed beta testing. After that we can expect some open beta testing before it goes life.

Considering that I13 is supposed to be a large Issue, I can't see it being released this year. Which I find a bit dissapointing (okay little rant here, but I guess that's normal to be a bit dissapointed). Though, what frightens me more then a I13 in 2009 is a rushed I13 in 2008.

Anyway, enough of I13. With CO and DCUO it's only normal that CoH/CoV has to evolve. Either by making a sequel or making the current game more worthwile to play.

I'm a bit afraid of Issue 13.

I really hope it's going to be big. Because if not, people will be very dissapointed (and angry) for waiting so long.
Don't want to be around the forums then.

I had a very successful weekend (though very villainious as I only played CoV this time).

My inital plan was to level my Dark/Dark Corr (Laughing Harlequin) from 44 to 50 this weekend.

I managed to get him to 50 on Saturday Noon.

Then I created my first Arachnos Soldier (Roguefang).
Leveled him to 24 (around 11pm yesterday).

Tried to level my Dom (Droigheann) a bit, but then my client crashed. When I got that fixed it was too late to play.

So I logged in back with Roguefang and respected him to be a Crab.

And before people think I did only game on the weekend, well I worked on Friday and then went to the shopping center with my GF as I promised it to her.
Did a walk on Saturday after lunch and then in the evening went to see Wall-E.
On Sunday went to an Italian Restaurant for lunch.

The reason for me leveling so quickly was mostly great team.
Me, Laughing Harlequin, Roguefang and Droigheann thank everyone we where teaming with.

Another problem is, that if they would really give people some great vet rewards, others would be whining, that only the vets are getting the coolest items.

Honestly, I would say. Drop all the vet rewards, except the free costume changes, the free respects and the additional char slots.

And give all the bonus powers and items to everyone.

I'm sorry, but why all the grumbling? Its Free Stuff!

Well, it's sort of like this: not getting desert is fine; getting desert is great; getting desert, but it's just a slice of white breat with butter, is disappointing.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hehe, well said.

But it's actually just a half slice of a slice of white bread we got 21 month ago.

They should either improve the awards or drop it alltogether.

Using recycled stuff isn't really that great. Pretty dissapointed here.

It certainly isn't anymore!

On Topic:
Shields, yes. Hope we get a nice variety (medieval, viking, tech and others) and not only a Captain America style shield.

Thanks for the input guys.

Hmm, I still might do one if I come up with a better concept then my dual blades ninja.

I think I should be okay in team, even with a weaker secondary and the buffs in the next patch might help.

Does the assassinstrike animation look cool at least?

Did anyone play the electric stalker yet?

Looks very interesting and I'm thinking to drop my dualblades/ninjitsu (just level 2 anyway) for a elec/elec stalker.

Any insights? Do the powers look cool? Is it fun to play one?

Playing my TA/A Defender at the moment (after leaving him aside for a year).
I'm currently level 11 and so never in any stamina issues (and give all my blues away to team members).
So I wonder, do I need Stamina from the Fitness pool in later levels?
Another question, what would be a good travel power for him?

I somehow can't decide which travel power to take, for my plant/thorns dominator.

At the moment SJ would be my favorite, but I also consider fly. Which would actually be a good travel power for a Plant/Thorns Dominator?

Hehe, thanks. Nice to hear that you liked my RP.

Well these two will be my main RPlers, but ve prepared that I will RP with a few of my other chars too on rare occasion .

Like an over 8 foot tall bankrobbing Pirate tech Brute (Scurvy) or an almost 8 foot tall a bit crazy and odd fire science tanker (Chili Con Carne).
Talking about a crazy chars, the Paranoid Android (tech stalker) is definatly crazy (not easy RPing robots).
Or maybe the bow worldchampion (wonder how many there are in Paragon) Strongbow.

Hi all,

recantly I noticed that Pocket D finally is a good place to RP. So I went a few times in there with my main Hero "Werewolf" and did some RP after the mishes. I noticed though that there where mainly heroes around.

So I switched over to my villain "Droigheann" to bring in some colour and hopefully to encourage more villains to RP. And I must say a villain who is friendly to the heroes actually is quite a surprise for a few people and is nice to RP.

Now I just level with my hero (I want to get him to 50 to finally be able to play a Kheldian after 2 years of CoH/CoV) and use my villain to RP (level him too from time to time off course).

I think I will continue this strategy for a while.
Well soon I won't be online every day though as I'm gona try out "The Burning Crusade" as I still play WoW too (hides).
You'll still see me around and I hope at some stage we'll get more Villain RPlers.

1. Pocket D (good to get more villain RP)
2. Galaxy Girl
3. Missions (if you get a nice RP Team for a change)
4. everywhere, all you need is just at least another RPler
5. Outside game (not my favorite)

Great, thanks for all the answers.
I guess once I7 hits I'll be having a MA/SR Scrapper.

Well, I know that SR is using a lot endurance but I never played it so I don't know much "a lot" is.
I was recently playing around with the costumes on the test server and made up a nice costume which would fit well for a MA/SR Scrapper, so I thought about starting one whith I7.
I'm not a all time solo gamer (actually I team more then I play solo), but sometimes I'm in the mood for soloing.
Is it an okay char to solo (I don't exepct anything like my Regen Scrapper) or more a pain to solo him?
Just for the info, I never play higher then Heroic/Villanious (enough challanges at my work, don't need them at home too) and don't care for PvP (even though I play it from time to time).

Oh last question. Only travel power I would take for him would be SJ or SS. i tend to SS though, because I think that Combat Jumping might not be very well for the endurance. Still I would to know which travel power do you prefer on a MA/SR build?
