you actually don't really seem the type

[/ QUOTE ]

I have to actually disagree with you here

One of my problems is i am very competitive person,i enjoy PvP and i am a hothead.I might actually trashtalk in PvP zone but i wont curse or something and will do it with people we compete against,other PvP SG's for example.

Will never trashtalk newcomers tho and will try defend them or help them if someone is trashing them.

Problem is that PvP core value is competition.Is bound to bring out dark sides of people's personalities sometimes.Most people dont like losing even in a game

To be really honest concerning what FFM said i admit i love the chatter going on in broadcasts when it sparks up more competition.When it crosses the line though i can understand that for casual players or people in the zones with different purpose in the zone its not appealing and they try steer clear from it.

I guess would be wise to remove broadcasts when entering.

The only thing that really annoys me is when people classify PvPers as uneducated or with any other characterization because they PvP or because they met one idiot or two that made their life miserable in a PvP zone.

In PvP its easier bound to come across stupidity because its a competition and noone likes losing to other people i guess.

Not that PvE doesnt have the same amount of idiots in my opinion.

Anyway about the broadcast issue,we had a discussion the other day about this thing some people expressed an opinion that villain/hero communication in PvP zones should be turned off in all forms.

Problem is as said in past in PvP forum, CoX has no Rules of Engagement or PvP Code of Conduct.Its only EULA.

So thats the only official frame within which something can constitue harassment.

Repeated killing,droning and what not,even smacktalk without really cursing or sending tells is not a violation afaik.

Since I saw that behaviour from two heroes against a new lvl 40 that had never been in RV before, I go to great lengths doing what I can to ruin their experience as well, at any cost, because I think such - repeated - behaviour deserves a(nother) perma ban.

I applaud you to be honest.PvP is prolly the only situation i strongly support a goold old saying "Eye for an eye".


[ QUOTE ]
I guess it's individual though. I don't mind it personally, but it does sadden me to see people stop PVPing and even leaving the game.

[/ QUOTE ]

Unfortunately PvP in all games is competitive.And has a steeper learning curve than PvE.Its the one situation where what other people people say shouldnt matter especially when trashtalking.Best response is to keep fighting till you eventually start kill them back.

I have a recent example of all this.I am part of a PvP SG.We got 5-8 members and we dont take people in the SG.

The only new person we let in lately after quite a few months is Nicky (Forum name).He wasnt let in for being uber skilled (although he is a good player) but because after being repeatedly annihilated by our SG in team fights.zonal or what not he always got up,dust himself,said good fight and tried again.Earned respect from everyone just for this and i think this is what every new comer should do.You will die a lot at start but as time goes by you will start killing a lot as well in my opinion by observing more experienced player.

And if you are being griefed by being killed by same person simply let him kill you more but keep observing his moves and figure ways to counter them.Cause most of them are one trick ponies.

The above is just my opinion only of course.

3. Players can build powers for some NPCs by selecting from a group of primary and secondary power pools and attaching them to the NPCs
4.Players can build a boss (and other NPCs) to place within their mission by creating its looks in the Character Creator and assigning it the powers of an existing NPC (non playable character)

[/ QUOTE ]

These two points are what interest me most from a gaming POV.This can open up possibilities of creating awsome encounters.I would like to see a bit of depth added to that.Like scripting rules that once met events are triggered.

Would like to be able to determine who the Boss hits,at what HP it hits,arc or radius of some powers.possibilities to use intangibility powers on a rotation and so on.

Would give chance to create some very unique and challenging encounters.

Actually a techie question.
Would it be possible for a CoH player to play with a CoH2 player?

Would it mean totally seperate games or could CoH2 simply overlay CoH1?
So a CoH2 player would see the coh2 content but a coh1 player would be on the same server but seeing from a coh1 perspective?
Could that be done? Surely that would be win win.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think it's Eve that runs several engines together. I don't know if the content differs between those engines - I doubt it. I also don't know if it's just a graphical tweak.

[/ QUOTE ]

Its a graphical tweak in Eve, nothing more. Though it is a very nice one for certain ships who were just plain ugly before

[ QUOTE ]
Sounds like too much of a gamble for them right now. I'd get it but would every one who plays right now do the same?

[/ QUOTE ]

I have a strong feeling this will come down to 2-3 factors.Most important will be how all this will compare with CO.

If CO falls back in offerings or way things are going to be offered even by the slightest i think will be hard to draw the CoH loyal customers.

Second will be approach to content that previously hasnt been touched much.Like end game depth which seems to be part of the focus for this expansion.

I know that if all this hit right now the stores in form of an expansion i would buy for both my accounts.

[ QUOTE ]
As for rewards, I think they are essential to get people to play the missions, but they'll need to be careful here or we'll be overloaded with farming missions.

[/ QUOTE ]

It is unavoidable that there will be lots of farming missions as well because rewards will have to be same with current mission system and be based on that.

As long as there is no tweaking with drop rate and xp values from mobs should be ok.

Lessened rewards will lead to the system not being very used until after level 50.

Besides noone will force you to play farming missions.

I think it would be nice to have tags for mission types for example Roleplay,Increased challenge,Farming etc etc etc

Damn it woman.You heard the man! (make me some too while you are at it.)

And it wasn't Eve who was at fault for taking the apple - it was the (male) serpent that lied to her

[/ QUOTE ]

Whatever comforts you.Open the bible and have a read.Satan has no gender.

So i guess Eve failed hardcore.

Is ok i can feel your pain trying to interpret the bible how it suits you.

[ QUOTE ]
It was a gender related persecution becuase religous teachings at the time said women were evil.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well it wasnt Adam who took the apple you know.

[ QUOTE ]
no mention of ice? *sigh*

[/ QUOTE ]

Well obviously since ice just aint right up there.

In short, for teams: Fire prolly the best, for duels: Psi top with ice following although Psi can work just as good in teams.

What i would like to see is some kind of missions where the mobs inside are both good and evil.Uppon entering the mission the previous missions you have done to + or - reputation with said faction.These factions could have also allies where some reputation is gained there too due to "word of mouth"

Uppon entering these mission depending what you choose to fight or where you moral compass lies you end up in mission taking sides.Trying to remain neutral would lead to both factions in mission attacking you for being suspicious.

Would like to see such system in large scale battlefield with perhaps 20 people teams and loads of mobs (like a city in deep crisis,maybe a time attack sort of thing) where different moral compasses could lead to chaotic results and exciting missions.

And when one side starts winning could lead up to increased reinforcement strength for example lieuts start coming,bosses,AV's,signature heroes and finally when things start get critical drop huge GM's (we talking Hamidon size) and give the 20 people the time of their life!

Ok i know i took it too far but would love this kind of chaos and challenge and i think i just had a mini orgasm at the thought of such PvE

What is the better set for Pvp?




[/ QUOTE ]

Despite people arguing against it i will say Fire is slightly better due to some tiny details.

However biggest equator between the two is that Fire is easier to counter.

Unless the opposing blaster is Spag.Then you are doomed one way or the other.

I see what you mean now.I think that those universal slots should be possible to use only in PvP and in content that locks in specific difficulty setting or that they are not displayed at all at info or some solution like this that will avoid this issue u describe.I have always been against Sets being displayed as well in info i mean there is really no point to it rather than people being picky based on info.


Dont mind me i just have major gripes with the lack of adjustment of game difficulty atm to match the current state of the game.

I have to admit that if those 10 slots are displayed in info might cause a form of discrepancy but then again its easy to just leave them outside the info so in pugs noone can tell who has what.

In PvP wont make much difference team wise.

I think i just like to moan constantly about the difficulty settings in upper game and AI scripting of encounters.Hope they work around this and give us some interesting tools to play with in PCC.

A form of end game encounter scripting would be friggin awsome.

[ QUOTE ]
The UEBERMEPLZ slots are a very very bad idea...STF/LRSF/LGTF/ITF become *even* easier, and there will be an invisible discrepency between level 50 players, leading to more reluctancy to allow PuG people into teams, and a certain discrimination.

[/ QUOTE ]

I dont really agree with this arguement but i would like to see if the 10 uni slots bring more power to builds that extra layer of difficulty is added to the game.

[ QUOTE ]
OK, I've tried the 177.66 beta drivers, and THESE work perfectly. PhysX is enabled, and CoX is pulling 65fps.

[/ QUOTE ]

Tried those and my PC got BSD instantly the first time i ran CoX.

The weird thing is i open CoX in screens 2,3 its just crashed the game.In screen 1 i got BSD.

VERY weird...

Am I psychic or did they actually pick it up off the boards?

[/ QUOTE ]

I always knew you were psychic.Stay away from my brain!

The words PvP + space + universal slots + endgame just gave me an orgasm to be honest

The survey has been confirmed on US boards via Niviene and via LH via PM to Beef Cake.

Thread is Here

EDIT: Sorry didnt see MA had linked it already

Yer nvm was late and i was messing with mids which still enhances KB mag via PB.

Happy Bday matey!Wish ya all the best

POWER PUSSHHHHHHHHH

Regulating PvP with Power Push since i3

Forget getting mez protection on squishies against Force Bolt and power thrust.

5x4 = 20

And 12 points from 3 slotting Acro

-32 is maxiumum u get with acro + kb prot IO's

add 5x3 from kinetic crush if u manage squeeze them in gives -47 i think and if i aint calculated something wrong.

In case of PBU'd powers tho tho just forget it lol.

EDIT: Ok some of the numbers you giving are with PBU

It appears the Arena system is misbehaving on Defiant and Union at the moment.


[/ QUOTE ]

Because someone started using it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Defiants broke due to 1 person trying to use it suddenly.

Unions broke from being overused.

I understand hence i pointed out some issues that you can change in the guides that will make them more accurate.PvE side i didnt point anything out since looks all good to me

[ QUOTE ]
On the other hand, they don't have pesky resistances, psionic damage, emanators, portal, -acc or -def, vengance, caltrops, endurance drainers or many other "fun" abilities.

[/ QUOTE ]

I am all for increasing xp from carnies,Sister Psyche mission,Clock King and Nemesis. Would be so awsome.

Psi clocks farming is so sexy its crazy

PS: For the record Freaks mission runs are slower xp than current farm missions due to slower progression through the mission.

Only situation i farm dreck map is a)when we bring 6 accounts online consisting of fire/sonic,fire/kin,fire/kin,fire/kin +2 randoms

b) Flashback system.
