That's going up as my desktop background for a long time... after i pick up my jaw.

I spent 100 points to purchase a couple sets of Team Defense inspirations last night, just to see if the store would let me, and to help out on Iron Eagles team runs, of course.

It did let me.

Lots of things ...the costume creator, of course.

But one very big thing is the fact that a change of set makes for a character that feels and plays so different even within the same Archtype.

I play a lot of Defenders and Controllers... heh, Storm vs Empathy? ... so different

Sometimes even just the power choices withing the same two set combo can feel very different depending on the specific choices leveling up.

I'd love to see Perez Park cleaned up from one end to the other for at least a short time

BIG GRIN!



I remember seeing it, but had forgotten...

THANKS!!! ... For brightening my day!!!

Congratulations!!!

Thanks for the update!

For myself and my wife, we agree with all the above comments.

Awesome job you are doing Zwillinger, I don't envy you!

NCSoft. This was handled very badly, and all these issues are easily foreseen, and should have been handled in advance, especially regarding subscriptions and money issues.

Well done ... and shared on my Facebook page

Altoholic who makes new characters and runs them up through various mission paths all the time.

I'd remake my favorites and start over. The loss of vet powers would be rough, but hey we didn't have those back in the day.

My most nostalgic characters all use early CoH costumes, although I would dearly miss all the costume stuff I've bought or unlocked.

Wife says "Ditto"

Bwahahaha!!!!

I just rescued her this weekend on "Nine Lives 8", my Iron Eagle character, finishing the Nocturne mission last night.

I like her so much I have another Iron Eagle.

"Cold Fusionette" Blaster (Rad Blast/Cold) with a costume loosely based on Fusionette's early and later costumes, with the addition of the frost trail aura. She's also one of the Nuclear 90.

I haven't played her in over a month because I was waiting on the new Blaster changes to take her out with her brandnew nuke. Her warcry is something like "Oh No, how''d I get in trouble again"



Cold Fusionette - level 32 - Blaster (Rad Blast / Cold Manipulate)

I know I want to be playing the game as it all goes dark. Even if I have to burn vacation days before, during, and after, in order to do it.

Probably with the very first character I ever made... still exists even if I rarely ever play her, or perhaps my first 50, who I do play... or one of my favorite duos with my wife... or, if not that, then go out with the Iron Eagles II SG (Die=Retire) over on Justice.

Me and the missus would totally pay for an offline Costume Builder program... even before the tragic news I would have paid for one.

There are many times I wish they could put an old archived version of CoH up on the Test Server for a month or so... say from around July when I joined... after the 40-50 stuff came in but before Hollows and the "Eyeball invasion"... just to remind folks what the game used to be like... including myself.

Remember trying to trade influence with your friends, and having to click a spinner to advance each digit, and you could only do it in ... i forget...was it 9,999 or 99,000 maximum amounts?

No Stores on map etc... Hollows time was when they added a ding to the elevator and swinging open gates and doors if I remember right too...

"No! No! I want an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle! "

Wow, all these posts and no one has said

"The Great Face"

yet?

Bwahahaha!!!!

Fun: using Gale to toss Hellions from the park into the pond/lake in Atlas... or much further in high levels chars

Not Fun: visiting the folks who introduce the PVP zones ... and similar missions... thanks so much for the Find a Contact - TP to Wincott! and/or Tembler... Devs! (THAT, I like and use!)

edit: also Not Fun: Broken ragdoll / knockback ... I win because the Freaktank's head is stuck in the wall is funny once, and makes me feel guilty after I do it over and over

If I remember right, emails remain for 60 days, then are deleted.

Totally agree

Even just being able to

Display Team Buffs - Y/N
Display League Buffs - Y/N
Display Incarnate Effects Y/N

or None, Low, Med, Full would be great

That would cut out a lot of the visual chaff. Even just on full teams, half the time I can barely see what I'm doing. Especially, the dark maps that seem so in style now.

Beast Mastery is just really beautiful!

I loved Nine Lives 4 and 5 with Beast Mastery ... Call of the Ravens is quite nice too!
I took the Bees too to have 3 personal attacks, putting the Dam/Rech/Chance for Knockdown Enhancer that I get at the start of the game in Bees. 2 powers with knockdown, plus the Force Bolt from FF was good personal protection.

The set really played well for being an active Master, attacking and supporting the pets. Fortify Pack is great later, it boost regen of your pets (not as important) when used, and boosts critical chance based on Pack Mastery buffs just for owning the power.

"I knew that statues were gonna be the biggest problem when scaling a CoH zone, so , with a bit of imagination, the viewer is gonna have to deal with trashcan statues until we get better items.. I see no better way to render them if at all."

Could you use the Mystic advisor (a statue-like man figure), I forget its name exactly as a stand-in for statues? Probably run into room type and item limit problems, or maybe just size alone would be problematic, but it's a thought.
