  1. Just any fyi, since I haunt some other forums.

    Farewell power pools I will never get to experience:
    Utility Belt
    Experimentation
    Gadgetry
    and
    Force of Will

    Whether these were actually in development, I'm not sure. But here is another list(thx Abroham).

    Savage Melee
    Radiation Melee
    Radiation Armor
    Psionic Melee
    Wind Control
    Wind Blast
    Light Control
    Light Affinity
    Water Control
    Close Quarters Weapons
    Sniper Rifle
    Kinetic Assault
    Light Assault
    Wind Assault
    Magnetic Control
    Magnetic Blast

    Primalist AT and winter themed super packs.
  2. Well, they better explain it if it was someone else's fault because...

  3. Not at the moment. If I jump in game now, I will definitely cry.

    To all of you...

    Zwillinger,

    I never thought I would get into another community rep, except for Cuppajo, but after seeing you on Ustream and Twitch.tv, I had something to look forward to each week. It was a delight to see your many hats, listen to your good and bad jokes(the bad jokes sometimes even being funnier), watch your excitement for new content and hear the passion in your voice you had for the game and community.

    I will truly miss those weekly ventures. And please convey a similar opinion to Arbiter Hawk. The two of you together couldn't provide a more entertaining community talk.

    I wish you the best and hope you all land an excellent job. Your next company will quickly realize what an excellent decision they made in hiring you.

    I forgot about that. Since most posters seem to think it will be impossible for PS to get the rights, game engine, server tech, etc, to CoH, I wonder if their new project has similar restrictions. Yes, I'm hoping against hope of seeing some of the developers gathering and opening a Kickstarter project.
  6. 1. The powersets
    2. The quality of animation(can't get used to WoW or CO's models or movement)
    3. The wonderful zones
    4. The size of the instanced map(at least compared to CO where it was awful).
    5. Best movement powers of any game
    6. Taking on large groups solo, something I can't do in other games
    7. Bases
    8. Invention system that is not a kludge

    man, so many because I can't think right now but I will just say that everytime when I went to other games like Rift, Tera, WoW, CO, etc, there was just something about combat, crafting or movement that irked me and I went back to CoH.

    That's strange behaviour





    Ok, yes, I agree. I mistook this as part of our earlier 'conversation'. It is not. I have read PP's posts in the past and she was in a league of her own. Kind of like GG's polar opposite.
  8. I signed it but I rather vote with dollars since I know that will garner more attention.

    OH and you know what I'm wearing today and I just realized it? My original purpleish City of Villains Tshirt from launch... That's how much CoH was a part of my life - I just came to expect it to always be around, like EQ.
    Yes, for you too. For all of you. This is beyond sad. When I was in-game today, I thought this was a horrible joke in LFG channel and was about to tell people what the channel was meant for. I then came here and read Zwill's post and I am still in shock.

    /e hug for Jayboh

    I'm so sorry.

    Ok, thanks for that Rufus. I will try but it is hard. Didn't mean for you to get drawn in. You have a very reasonable voice.

    Edit: uhh, just ignore the comment immediately above.

    Go figure.
    There's that pompous attitude I so love.

    I don't care what the reason was and amazed you still think I said something about the money. No, it's about people like you that said my game would last for years to come but it's not. It is being shut down and CO just isn't the same. I'm calling you guys out, not PS. PS has been awesome the past year.

    And you can also F*U*C*K yourself, Terra. So tired of you retards and the only silver lining of this is you fu cks won't be able to post your crap anymore.

    Why choose now to pick a fight? It's not going to amount to anything.

    I'm not trying to argue with you. Whatever Forbin said before to you is moot now. Let's bury the hatchet and at least give this game an honorable death.

    Increase The Peace
    Well, then sorry you didn't get it. Not sure why you decided to jump in either. Practice what you preach.

    And so wrong again. Just you are the problem Forbin, just you.

    GO F*U*C*K YOURSELF, FORBIN. The silver lining to this game shutting down? Your fu cking mouth and over inflated ego being permanently silenced.

    Nope, wrong. Read my other comment above to Rufus. just a beef with players and nothing against the game I assure you. But par for the course on these forums. People defend this game with an inappropriate amount of passion. And most of all, they can't ignore one comment. He chose to respond to my initial comment and you decided to read something that wasn't there.

    So, in short, since I don't have to worry about coming back to this game. Go F*U*C*K yourself.(same to Brillig and Kitsune down below). Seriously, ignore the comment and its effect is marginalized. The more you call me out the more you legitimize my comments. In all the years you think guys would get that. Par for the course here.

    Uggh, no. It wasn't.

    It was more a jab at certain posters that I just can't stand and now have off of ignore to let them know what I thought of them these past years. Not that I'm going to search them out but they are drawn like flies to honey whenever you make the slighest variation of a comment that doesn't fit their world view. It looks like they protected/promoted the game but I found their attitude detrimental to the community. Yes, there are some very helpful and friendly people here but it was not directed toward them.

    I love this game and do not want it to go anywhere. I just can't stand forum jerks and now I get to say so because it doesn't matter anymore if my account gets locked or banned.

    Can you stop trying to paint me as someone that hates the game instead of someone that just has a personal beef with some forumites? Get it now?

    So once again you are wrong.
    Sure, that is a long time but it did not last years from Freedom whenever the topic of population came up. See, I can chose a timeframe and make it fit my argument too.

    You are wrong again. Keep trying as I'm here for good. Oh wait, I'm here until the game shuts down that you indicated was healthy and would last for years longer.

    I love this game and would gladly like to see it go on for years more. I was hoping so when i saw how much VIPs were spending above their subs. But what I don't LOVE is people like you. I think you are pompous, self-serving and a forum jerk. I'm saying this now because it doesn't matter and I find it amusing that you continue to redirect the comments to the life of the game instead of what I am saying about you personally. Maybe you are nice in real life, but I always found you to be a forum a-hole in the biggest manner.

    Otherwise I'm in the PlanetSide 2 beta, but that has no character akin to CoH. You'll find me here or there until WildStar releases.
    Not sure I will be picking up an NCSoft game in the near future even though both GW2 and Wildstar look great. I'm sure I will eventually get over what they did to my favorite game but not real soon.

    Kind of in limbo right now.
  19. Probably WoW where I have RL friends and as long as CO doesn't shut down I have a lifetime subscription there for my hero fix once CoH goes six feet under.

    That way the community can resurrect the game, and aspiring game devs can learn from their efforts.
    Some people already mentioned this would be unlikely due to what NCSoft owns and the game engine belonging to Cryptic. I would definitely participate in a Kickstarter if it were possible.

    I never predicted anything. You did with the this game will last for years attitude. LOL

    I'm sad the game is closing but I'm not sad you are wrong.

    Oh, and help to keep this on the front page, so to speak. Gotta get the word out to as many people as we can and keep it there until this nonsense stops.
    Could PS get the rights and do a Kickstarter?

    You're wrong. But please continue to rage against the dying of the light. There's always hope someone might believe you.
    Keep trying since you like to keep failing.

    My final thread.

    Awww, that tug at my heart even more in addition to the "I am crying" thread. Keep it up and I may cry.
