  1. Don't say I didn't warn you, because I didn't. It's pretty easy to guess who's who in this picture.

    I can lend you some from my back if you need to do the hair transplant thing, seems to be where all my hair has migrated, that and my ***.

    ...by the way I do have a RL pick of Hamster and Voodoo if anyone wants to see it.

    With a real end game XP smoothing was needed. The last month I was playing on Virtue, full teams of 8 no matter what time of day or night (e.g. a full team for citadel at 2am), went from 1-50 in under 3 weeks.
  4. Played with many of those said bugs. Keep on buggin on buggeroos.

    I remember....

    Hate to feed the rodent's ego here, I remember a chaotic lowbie arena match, where I singled out the rodent and gave chase (imagine a huge bullman chasing a tiny, soon to be doomed rodent man), I chased him all over the map and finally up the the steel ramps around a factory (an old AV map I believe), Hamster jumps from the very top I jumped after him, saved by the one-shot code but than tapped by a rodent claw, owned. A cheap but memorable victory for the Satanic one.

    I remember....

    I remember when the O-zone used to take aggro.

    I remember when if you zoned out of RWZ during Lady Grey you were out of the TF (still true to this day?).

    I remember fights in Ventrilo.

    I remember a LGTF wasn't going so well so a couple of people dropped O-zone portals for the final AVs to take aggro. SpaceTrucker accidently clicked the portal, zoned, and was auto-kicked from TF, "Thanks a lot a$$holes!" for which he was right to be angry, but it still makes me laugh to this day, his delivery of that line was perfect.

    Death from ******* Below? You haven't run that a hundred times like everyone else? Don't forget to look at that first or second hurdle you jump, it's a sign for a chicken joint.

    I think I just want to run story arcs, the new ones anyways.

    ..and that global defense nerf was pretty annoying.

    What still pisses me off to this day is travel suppression, it pisses me off here and it pisses me off in the other two super hero games out there, stupid travel suppression!
  9. Going to a completely different genre of game does not appeal to me. It's like sitting down to watch the Avengers again but someone puts in Lord of the Rings instead, sure I love Lord of the Rings, but damn it I want to see a Super Hero movie, same here, damnit I want to play a super hero game.

    DCUO is good, music is good, visuals are fantastic, and the missions are fun. Players? meh. Loot system? meh? Costume choices? meh. Mark Hammill's joker voice? Like nails on a ******* chalkboard.

    Champions, if you can get over the bad character models and don't mind a game where they dollar you to death.

    Thankfully DCUO still hasn't gone nutso with their market so far, like Champions and this game.

    I'm going to run a gadgeteer type character on both games to see which one I end up liking the most.

    Steam_ids

    Haven't been on there in a long time, decided to re-install the steam client and make sure you all would recognize me. Mine should be easy to remember, just remember "Tex" not Texas and no "e" in Longhorn:

    Tex Longhorn

    I remember....

    I remember RP in the park In Galaxy (Gemini Park) with The Cheetah, Spackle, Calash, Onus, and the rest of the gang.

    I remember my old friends in Ventrilo, Cynn, Sarrate, Desmodos, Mind Freak, Malchonn, Evoke, Horatus, Madam Pistacio and the rest.

    I remember the nuts, Personamorpher and that "dupin rares" guy.

    I remember doing a late night type talk show in our base, and pulling it off well.

    I remember my first teaming with Voodoo I called him a stupid tit. After which we actually started to get along (more or less ).

    I remember some of the epic flamewars between me and some folks (Goons, Lions Den), and the epic ones I avoided.

    I remember that almost all Isos meetings were a blast (sorry about my flakiness).

    I remember the worst typo in history that made me want to crawl into a hole and die.

    I remember running the old school ******* Positron Task Forces.

    I remember the first time I used lightning rod.

    Most of all I remember discovering this community (Victory), thanks for the fun and interesting times everyone.
  12. I was just about to post this question myself. It would be interesting to know what the secret "Next Generation MMO" project was.
  13. You're efforts are much appreciated TonyV.
  14. Been staring at the screen for a long time now in shock, just felt like I had my guts ripped out. Maybe my views have been skewed since I've been playing on a higher populated server as of late but I thought things were going fine. Sure I was on another server but I did drop everything and come to Victory when someone asked me to join a team, Victory was still and always will be my home. I've had some absences from this game but never said goodbye, nothing was permanent.....but now? Maybe some other publisher will buy them out, but that might be too much to hope for.


    It's been a cool ride with you all, take care everyone.

    Oh man, can't wait for this to go live.
  16. Did Sutter with Vood, took a Controller from level 38-40

    On a different server :O leveled up two controllers
    Dark/Dark Controller Level 12-34
    Grav/Time Controller Level 17-34

    Umbra beast is my favorite pet.
  17. I give DC and his family my best, Godspeed buddy.

    Who Will Die?

    The death has been revealed. Head over there if you want to read the spoiler.

    http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/news/n..._statesman.php

    I'm wondering if the dev team is trying to stick it to Jack Emmert or not, as it was his creation from way back in the pen and paper RPG days. Quite frankly though (name redacted) was a one dimensional not so interesting character to begin with.

  20. I'm hopelessly behind, but what the hell, the purpose is to run with people and have a good time. As Grey said, it's game, have fun.
  21. Running 11.11 and I get periodic lock-ups. Not fun when you have to run Windows Task Manager just to get out of game.
  22. I have the 5700 series and found this link
    http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...w_vista64.aspx

    But I'm seriously debating whether I should do it or not, just out of principle I don't feel like I should have to downgrade my driver.
  23. 6pm I assume? I'll be there as myself.
  24. Speaking of improvements, our new fearless leader
  25. Disappointed, you can take whatever you like from the devs announcing that they were going to publish a bug on live, but than not to have Hamster take advantage of said bug and grief everyone?
