Tuarus and The_Phantoms

I'm sorry if I upset you with this thread.

My point to posting (which I do rarely, and only when I feel I really have something to say) was to try to spread a little of the optimism and Happy Happy Joy Joy that I'm feeling. I can assure you that it wasn't posted to wind anyone up, but to try to see if I could help people to , or maybe even , or - heaven forfend .

Thanks for all the Conga Rats everyone, Altaholisim really does need some sort of treatment and I think that the Devs should start something...

Hope you all have as fantastically fun a weekend as I am, and that all your IO drops are purple (or Universal Travel because the Devs press the wrong button!)

Luv 'n' Hugz 'n' st00f

Well at least you coulda said "I dont want any discussion on this".

So what if I get a 48 hr ban, at least I voiced my opnion, that's all that matters.

Anyway, congratz and have fun.

But I'm surprised you haven't got it yet, FFM...for my earlier story thread...

I too have never heard of Yellow Chick, she does sound amazing.

AS you may notice, my reply was pointless but it's Sunday morning and I want to increase my post count.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ah, everyone seems to want to have a pop at me.

So what, I don't know Yellow Chick but I would like to meet her?

Also, what's the point of trying to increase my post count at this stage, I have to get another 2000 or something to get next one. I don't even care about it, no matter what people say.

End of that. Continue the hunt for Yellow Chick.

Did you just post that. I congratulate you for your first 50, but coming out and saying Defiant is not dead without any backup is gonna ruin your whole rep, forever.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh, right, so, erm, is saying Defiant is not dead the same as saying slot flash with Damage?

Gratz on your first 50 efan78

Certain individuals cause forum disharmony, efan78 is not one of them 'glares at those responsible'

[/ QUOTE ]

NO, that's a completly different part of it. We're not here to discuss my guides.

He is not responsible for anything, but he is just stating that he thinks Defiant is well and kicking but some don't. Is there a problem with that?

It will only be a while till GR comes and locks, but go away and still remember my opnion and Tuarus'.

So there's me happily playing on test and about to check out new Ciemora content. Then suddenly when I zone into Ciem it gets all very laggy. I've had NO problems with this before. Why is this? Nobody else was there.

Btw, the Graphics Quality is Recommended (AKA, without Safe Mode) and I have 1.792 GB RAM. Gfx card is NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 405.

grats on your 50

QFT.

The_Phantoms, Tuarus. You really don't do sarcasm do you?

EDIT: Also, if you look back at efan78's last 200 posts, you will see they are mostly jolly and not at all troll like.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well I was only trying to put out a point. The post was all well until the metion of "Defiant is very well populated", which I felt was not the right thing to say.

Believe me, I don't want to turn this into a flame war; it's just my opnion, my 2 pence, my inf.

Unfortunately, I have never heard of Yellow Chick, but she sounds amazing.

If Sister Psyche is more than a 10-second cameo by Anna Faris, this movie is going to suck SOOOO much.*

I love the idea of doing the Top Cow comic toons playing through the Rikti Invasion - focus on the mid-level guys rather than the superstars and bring in more of the in-game humour.

*this goes double if any gratuitous bathtub scenes are added.

[/ QUOTE ]

Get somebody Korean to play that guy from the Korean opening movie. I wouldn't mind this fella: http://koreanfilm.org/actors2.html#baeyj

Numina would need some sort of expereniced female 30s actress. Perhaps one of the girls outta Heroes. Because they have expereniced with the genre already.

There's a few others I can think of.

[ QUOTE ]
To expand on this thread slightly, who should play Sister psyche?

[/ QUOTE ]

Anyone who thinks shes sexy.

*slowly nods*

Owch, 41 months for the squiddibles is nasty...I thought my own 15ish months was bad Still....you get the shiny nemesis staff, for that you get no pity ¬¬ -envy-
Anyway, there is a simple explanation for the '[censored] US servers is betters lolz!!111'...or bigger, actually;

The USA is a bigger country...Countries....continent.
Europe is smaller.
AND, the maths above is pointless, as all those people *cannot be on the one server as their all on DIFFERENT servers*.
Fact -nods-

[/ QUOTE ]

Why dont you go put the map of Europe and the map of USA together. See which one is bigger.

We're comparing their peak times here. So basically the maths isn't useless because if people are happy with the Defiant/Union pop atm then if theyre off to US then they have 10 servers to play with.

No loss, ya see?

Can I have your stuff?

Just a small thing that some may find useful, I certainly do:

Create a macro. Type '/macro Quit, Buy_Coh'

You now have a button in your powertray that when clicked brings up the prompt to fast logout! Hope I've helped!

[/ QUOTE ]
Just to point out that this macro does work exactly as a text string command I posted in OP does, but creates a tray icon with most of the word 'Quit' displayed.

<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre>/buycoh</pre><hr />
<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre>/bind &lt;key&gt; "buycoh"</pre><hr />
<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre>/macro Quit "buycoh"</pre><hr />
All in effect function the same.

Why FFM's PC crashes with this I can't say, my 2nd machine (runs my alt account), struggles to load a browser but doesn't crash. I suspect its some sort of interaction issue between the game client and the browser. What browser do you use by the way?

[/ QUOTE ]

It works perfect for me, and I'm using IE7.

Is this a joke or what? The smileys say it.

But Damz is a noob, so, whatcha gonna do when he comes for you? BAD BOY

Back into seriousness...not nice, damz. Very, VERY harsh. They simply made a mistake.

[ QUOTE ]
be a bit more optimistic, it's a thread about no doom, not a dooms day thread.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm just pointing out that that what the OP points out is not a fact - he/she doesn't have the proof. Don't say "but they got 4 good teams this weekend" because I could get waaaaaay more than that. At lowest players I could get at least 8. 4 teams in one weekend is NOT big.

Yep. When I think of street fighting, I always think of this!

[/ QUOTE ]
if it's that, i'll say a big NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
it's a hero game, not a sissy fighting movie....

[/ QUOTE ]

Woah, you are missing out on a lot of great movies.

That movie was deep, deep, deep; it was simply amazing. One of the most engrossing films for decades. It is not sissy. It really boils the blood of both you and the actors.

The point has been made over and over sorudo, this isn't the Street Fighter set you were looking for. Brilliant game, but unfortunately, we want da American style of street fighting, where blood is spilled and bones are broken. I imagine only a small percent of the population will want the Japanese style of street fighting, with ki and chi and whatever.

Also, technically ki and chi are energy, which already exists in the game. Go figure.

[/ QUOTE ]
then i have news for yah, there are A LOT more ppl hoping for the typical japanese street fighter styles then the bold, useless american style.
btw, that's not fighting, that's just the same as what american football is, just aimlessly hitting to hope if it hurts or not.
if you call that fighting, then you know nothing about fighting.
and before i get that backslash about "and you're suppose to know", yes i do.
i have created my own martial art style, before that i trained jujitsu to train the basics.
and currently, i created a style for both defense and killer offense.
if there is anything, even the slightest thing that i know, then it's the difference between fighting and aimless hitting.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please give me proof of this. Before you backfire, ask almost anyone and theres a 99.9% chance they'll say that they want punches and kicks, not chi and ki.

And "aimless hiting"? Where'd you get that from? Take a quick view into any street fighting, even WWE, and you see that it is all prepared in their mind. Now your Street Fighter is actually aimless hiting cos all you do is punch punch kick kick and there is no "accuracy".

Also, on Wikipedia there is abseoutly no mention of chi/ki on the "Street fighting" page. Obviously your "every wiki site that exists is ki/chi" comment is ill-thought out and didn't have backup. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_fighting

Please post something that actually shows that you know that ki and chi is street fighting before saying what you "think" is right.

The JRanger would be very happy to post on this. No from me, besides for some IOs you get "Chance for" which cost millions of inf and almost anyone can use a free tailor session to get these...so whats the point of them?

S4P, you're jumping on a boat without thinking about the consequences.

Well it is alright from a perspective, but really, people will come back for I13 &gt; play it for a while &gt; leave &gt; numbers drop &gt; more "servers are dieing threads &gt; beta for new issue begins and the cycle goes round again.

The content gets too stale after a while and people get bored. The devs really need to think. Also people say "its the same numbers as US" but theres 10 "same pop" servers and theres only 2 here. So basically 150 people on Union and Defiant...150 x 2...300...150 x 10...1500.

See any difference?

Did you just post that. I congratulate you for your first 50, but coming out and saying Defiant is not dead without any backup is gonna ruin your whole rep, forever.

Actually... the CoH movie is more likely than Warcraft.

The rights were bought a year ago by producer Tom DeSanto (Transformers, X-Men, X-Men 2, NOT the third one) who liked the humour of the Top Cow ideas and the game scripts, the whole Supers vs Aliens core plot and the actually, they're really us subplot that entails. He even sees a bit of franchise potential (clicky).

Of course, talk's just talk, but this was backed up by $1m in cold hard greenbacks. They probably could have got more, but I bet Jack just wanted to say "One MILLLIION DOLLARS...muhahahah" in a meeting. 'Cause he's a nerd. But that's ok.

Rumours that Sister Psyche was the first person cast are also unconfirmed, but pretty damn likely.

[/ QUOTE ]

If they made it into a cartoon, I think it would be a lot easier to do because there is soooo many powers in the game that sometimes even CGI can't make. That's why theres superhero cartoons. I wouldn't mind if people were asking me "Why are you on Cartoon Network" if City of Heroes were broadcast.

Or do it like they do it in other shows, make a new episiode each week to get people excited. Saturday night please, no Sunday morning slot.

But I guess there is a very unlikely chance it's going to happen. Here's WIKIPEDIAAAAAAAAA:

[ QUOTE ]
In February 2008, it was announced that DeSanto has indeed begun preparations for the film. A plot summary has been released detailing that the movie itself takes place during the first Rikti War.

[/ QUOTE ]

If we almost wait 10 months for new news on a film, then it's usually in development underworld.

((I'm not intrested in participating in the RP, but I'm really enjoying this open RP session - it feels like one of those awesome bits at the end of action movies!))

Wait, hold on a minute...*checks post count* Make that 5000!

It could also be a open target for griefers, eg give all your inf away to someone else and write "I eat monkey poop" in your description.

now no children play nice no need to get catting or turn a fair question/chance for descusion into a flame war after there is a good chance there is new people to the game who dosnt know the answeres to these questions and wonts the answers just as much as phantom

I tried to make it a fair discussion; then Cass decided to have a pop at me. Not too nice, I might say.

Well, I guess we can ignore it now and get on with the actual point of the thread...

[ QUOTE ]
ask a silly question, get a silly answer.

[/ QUOTE ]

I thought it was "theres never a silly question" but be a little friendly, will ya? I simply wanted to know the state of them, like the RPG and the movie, ie, how development is going.

Well personally I wouldn't use it, IMHO it takes away the point of making alts of other ATs. It's a good idea for the people who can't seem to play other ATs but I see many of the playerbase complaining.
