Issue 13 Is Now Live! - 6th November 2008

[/ QUOTE ]

That's from the startup. I just joined up again today but as I late to the party or is that a glitch?

[/ QUOTE ]

Obviously you were haxxoring and managed to realase I13 almost a month earlier...the cheek of it!

Have to agree with Cactus, it doesnt look too tech bases too me as far as powers go. Also the costume doesnt look very techy, its not mystical but its not techy either. I would recommended picking up the Cyborg pack and maybe using some of the costume parts from there. Also if Archery is planned I'd recommend something more techy.

[ QUOTE ]
Okay, when's this going to start then, now we have i13?

[/ QUOTE ]

I've already created my character, Marcus Avenue. For now we'll just have to wait for Pious to come up and tell us, also I recommend anyone who hasnt signs up on the forum now, the Shield Police is almost underway.

Bah, I13 is out but CoX still feels...normal!

Some more, this time Greek and Roman gods, take your pick:

Erebus' Pet
Zeus' Apprentice
Artemis' Guardian
Hades' Assistant
Hermes' Lackey
Radioactive Uranus (ok, that sounds a bit weird)
Electric Aether
Rhea's Child

That's all for now, if you know the gods, the powersets should be obvious.

What kind of message are you getting?

if I14 is MA alone (which has been said by Posi himself)

[/ QUOTE ]

He said it could stand on its own, not that it would. Not that they haven't put out releases almost entirely for a minority audience before: I4 and I6 both had very much a minority appeal.

Read Grouchybeast's post on page 10.

Now you know.

2-3 months

[/ QUOTE ]

Considering how long the timespace between I11-I12 and now I12-I13, I wouldn't guess so.

[/ QUOTE ]

We already know i14 is coming out in the first quarter of 2009. In case you didn't know, there are 3 months in a quarter, so 2-3 months is likely correct. Personally, I'd expect to get it on test sometime in February.

[/ QUOTE ]

Uh huh...and we knew I13 was coming out before December!

[/ QUOTE ]

From a financial standpoint November ends this coming Friday, not to mention we were warned it could be held back until they were satisfied with the PvP changes (Don't go there anyone, there's already a thread for that), besides it'll be 2 days, allow me to repeat that, 2 days late. It's not the end of the world because they were two days late dude, they've got a lot of work to do in the next six months to combat the competition, cut them some slack.

[/ QUOTE ]

OK I might derail it here but...IMHO I'm not going to cut them some slack. It's a while till CO/DCUO realases, yes theyre going to in open beta around April team, but there's so many things wrong with I13 and if I14 is MA alone (which has been said by Posi himself) then this game isn't going to survive any MMO realases, let alone superhero MMOs.

I'm not gonna cut them some slack this time, I'm paying my sub, I get my say in the matter.

A FPS. You're a Vanguard soldier and you fight Rikti in the game. Such a cliché, ya?

[/ QUOTE ]

a while back abou the time villians came out i came up with the idea of a fps ersion of the game you choose longbow or archonos and take it from there even if it was [censored] i think i owuld probibly still buy and play it lol

[/ QUOTE ]

These two ideas would rock especially if they did it in a style to the star wars republic commander control system.

Id buy it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Or jump onto the idea of RC itself, a Longbow/Arachnos/Vanguard/Rikti squadron leader? That would be pure awesomeness.

I'm not too sure, could be a computer problem? Or try again later. That's all I can think of.

Good luck.

release an issue devoted to Mission Architect

[/ QUOTE ]

If it's just MA, Posi, then CoX is going to be doomed, really, because CO/DCUO open beta is going to be just after that.

Now the first "I14 can handle MA on its on" interview is backed up with this.

It's definetely not set in stone, but if I14 is just MA, then I can see a LOT of people turning around and heading off.

Anyway, back on topic, it's been said next tuesday from Tellis post so thats the time it realases, unless some major bug comes around and they have to delay it. And it's been long enough waiting tbh. Roll on 2nd December!

[ QUOTE ]
I appreciate the offer but I think the worrier in me prefers the peace of mind of having a warranty and being able to phone my good friends in India if I run into trouble and need support. Thanks for the offer though

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol, the good friends in India...I have a feeling that is not or joke...or maybe it is

Tylanntia. (think thats how you spell it) - Seemed to be well known on the Defiant server in her (his) day.




[/ QUOTE ]

It's Tylantia, and he/she is awaiting Stargate Worlds...bleh...now he/she hates CoX, calls it a sucky game, says the same for WoW. Sad really.

[ QUOTE ]
Beatbox Hero. It could include such classics as 'BB Spaz', 'BB Yellow', and 'BB Wah'. It'd be on the Wii so you had to wave the controllers in a manner reminiscent of actual CoH dances. As your level increases, you have to think up more excuses to not start a mission and continue dancing.

[/ QUOTE ]

I would pay my life savings for that. No, seriously.

Also, about the "CoX Kart", I remember when I played MotorStorm I made it up that it was a Heroes and Villains racing tourament set in a desert in the Rogue Isles. I pretended all the racers were my characters, my friend's characters and the signature characters. It was awesome shouting "DAMN YOU, STATESMAN GETTING IN 1ST PLACE" to yourself.

A FPS. You're a Vanguard soldier and you fight Rikti in the game. Such a cliché, ya?

I've decided it's time to retire my current laptop and am hoping to buy a new computer in the new year. I was wondering if more knowledgeable users than me could give me a few pointers regarding what I should be choosing when it comes to the various components.

I'll be going for a desktop this time and I'll be buying from Dell (I have a good history with them and I don't have the hardware skills to build a computer or know anyone who could build for me). I'll mostly be using the computer for COH/V but will also probably use it for other newly released games and also some HD video watching/editing (although possibly not too much of the editing).

The main queries I have are:
OS - Vista Home Premium or Ultimate or does it even matter? (Dell doesn't do 64 bit in the range I'm looking at so that's not an issue)
Processor - Dual Core or Quad Core or does it even matter?
Graphics Card - NVIDIA or ATI?
Ageia PhysX card - would it add much to my COH-playing enjoyment?

Any comments on the above would be greatly appreciated!

[/ QUOTE ]

OS - If you want a few extra goodies, then go for the Ultimate. But you could always buy Home Premimum, I had that for a month or so because it was before SP1 for Vista was realased and Vista would crash after 5 mins of playing a 8 yr old game, but it ran CoX fine.

Processer - IIRC CoX had problems with Quad. I'm sure I heard it around this forum somewhere.

GFX Card - I'm a Nvidia here, but AFAIK ATI should run with no problems. It's down to personal preference.

PhysX Card - I've never used it, can't say. Although here it says it helps a variety of games: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ageia,1270.html
As for buying it? Can't say, I'm afraid. Gonna have to ask someone who's used it.

Ah, but you can't exactly 'win' anyway. It's a personal objective thing. Since he was doing this to kick himself back into drawing, I personally think he's met that objective anyway.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ya. He's done well and even if he doesn't "win", he's done very well and he hasn't stopped getting down and drawing. Well, until now ofc, he seems to be not showing any more drawings...

[ QUOTE ]
The characters don't belong to us and his work is, his work, it may look alright for us to walk around naked to some of us but his work says something both about him and ncsoft and perhaps even cryptic still.

[/ QUOTE ]

...that he isn't brilliant at mixing costume pieces together?

Sorry, I have to agree with Scarlet here. IMHO the VEAT's customization could have been taken further.

Also, Mr. Blitzkreiger, I disagree with "they've been produced so well". Tbh they felt a bit bland to me and they were using the same powers we see like all the grenades, claws, etc. Just felt a bit more work could have gone into it. Also I support the need for VEATs needing a buff.

You can see that VEATs felt rushed with the lack of deep customization and "unique" powers. I'm hoping that I14 will bring them some love (also some REAL love to PvP and bases, the I13 changes are not enough or they suck).

don't care really what you think is wrong, it's what bug's me and i just hope they can be fixed to make a bit more sense.

[/ QUOTE ]

sorudo, just because what you think should be "fixed" doesn't mean everyone wants it, in fact you may be the only one who wants it, the devs don't put a new feature just for you, they put it for the whole community on EU and US. I don't want to turn this into a flame war, but ignoring what other people say is only going to make you the loser. Let's say you live in Sweden and you're going to a gig in Switzerland in a few days. Another person tries to tell you the gig has been called off, but you tell them you don't care, go to the gig, nobody's there. You wasted all your money getting there for nothing because you ignored something.

As for the suggestion itself, I believe SteelRat pointed out well what I was going to say. Also the earlier posters.

[/ QUOTE ]

wow...that made next to no sense.

[/ QUOTE ]

He doesn't care what we think - if he doesn't listen, then the only person who loses out is himself, I'm saying.

[/ QUOTE ]
a lot of ppl (and i mean a lot) don't listen to me, but they bite the dust when the devs do listen.

[/ QUOTE ]

Haha...you really think a lot of people ignore you?

There only trying to prove a point, for so long you dont get that. End of story.

Also, what are you on about with the devs, I have not seen one dev hint at your suggestions, so stop trying to make stupid excuses. Just listen to us more, then maybe we'll listen to you more, but I feel we listen to you well enough. Nobody wants to troll through the suggestions and start a flame war - not me, either.

That is all. My case is rested, now I'm going to have some fun going on the rest of the forum then playing the game.

Well if he's going at this rate I wouldn't expect him to get it done. Think we should just give the fella a break, he's been working real hard at a really fast rate and I think he needs a rest, even if it spoils his chances of winning NaNoDraMo.
