Just wondering if there has been any changes in the last month it seems like elude type powers in pvp are getting pretty weak lol
Bug, Nerf ? -
Quote:Cold is horrible in pvp yes u didnt get the memo then lolOriginally Posted by Fiery-Enforcer
Colds are bad in PvP? My Sonic/Cold Corr must not have gotten the memo.
Serious, My point being is the OP stated why wouldnt anyone want it in any aspect of the game compared to FF, they probably might have wanted to keep that to pve, since i13 cold like other powers got nerf'd in pvp and not as viable as they used to be.
People can make anything work depending on the goals however, damage fest pvp as is todays menu and served on the 2 sec mez = your food served cold not being very appealing, I can think of alot better builds.
As I said we are all entitled to an opinion but cold powers in pvp are on the bottom of want to haves. for attacking and damaging your opponents in zone.
Got cold troller i never play anymore after i13 and moved him during free transfer week.
Good luck with your Corr .. -
Quote:You PVP?? Why even mention it lolOriginally Posted by Rockmar
Lately I can't find a single worthwhile reason to take FF over Cold, and that makes me sad. Cold seems to bring so much more to the table; Defense, Awesome Debuff, +HP, Stealth, Knockdown, and +Recov. Whereas FF only brings 5% more defence than cold unenhanced (defender numbers), mez protection, and repel/knockback.
I can't think of a single situation where I would rather have a FF over a cold, in groups, solo, or PvPing, and neither can the majority of the people I have been talking to in game, all expert players in their own right with years of credibility. It just seems that the minor benefits FF has are far outweighed by the usefulness of Cold's other powers.
Am I missing something here? I've had countless debates on the subject and in the end everyone seems to come to the same conclusion; that until FF gets a revamp, its inferior to Cold.
What are your thoughts?
Cold isn't every good in pvp and ff well not much better in pvp, some builds can work but both definatly in the bottom 5 for usefulness in zone pvp. and cold might even be last.
Might be a toss up between dark and cold for last place lol
But we all r entitled to our opinion lol -

As you have no idea what those projections were, you have no way of knowing that.
Considering the number of folk I've seen rocking the emotes since the servers came back up this AM it seems to be fairly successful.
And if the devs spooked every time a segment of forumgoers whipped themselves into a tizzy about something they'd never get anything done.

Quote:HUH ? Hate? Above and beyond?Originally Posted by MrHassenpheffer
Was gonna rant, so very pointless... I'll just get to the meat. Try not to hate.
After a few heavily involved beta runs of what is soon to come and what will later come...
The only two things that are going to set this game above and beyond ARE:
1. AE
2. Bases
Focus on those.
Again huh? BTW im in beta too and honestly I dont know if your trying to disagree or add something but we were talking about the pack not about beta runs or being a hater.
You missed the line about me buying the other packs to support and help the game along in a small way. So am I a hater im very sorry you read hate in the post but i'm not, heck not even angry im just extremely dissapointed and concerned this is a new direction of $$ gouging.
But your entitled to your opinion even about me so GL to ya lol
lol -
Quote:How about "We made a mistake and thank you for many years of support and all the positive feedback for our previous packs"Originally Posted by TrueMetal
Tell me, what do you expect them to say?
Or a simple "We understand your frustration and disapointment and have passed the feedback along to our superiors"
Or how about ...............
Really stop picking fights with people because you disagree, discussions are when people try to see the others points and talk about things..
Debates are proving your points and winning -
Quote:True and that the information flowing uphill in any given company normall stalls at some point. I think what we are seeing here with red name silence is a "I knew this was going to happen" or 'I told you so" and they are waiting for the bottom $ to cement theyre opinions in stone to the powers above.Originally Posted by Aura_Familia
pretty much this. folks need to realize that the dev side of the NCSOFT equation may not be able to say anything at all.
i don't blame them for the silence. My ire is squarely targetted at the marketing side.
The future packs will tell this story, I bought all but the wedding packs prior to this, part of the reason was to help keep the game alive in some small way and be supportive by actions not words.
Unfortunatly im now wondering if I did the wrong thing and helped create an evirement of "they will buy anything" attitude from this company
I hope Im wrong Id like to stay and enjoy this game but I have left other games on principle before and thinking to myself that I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and soon I may pass on. -
Quote:No its not offensive for companies to make money, offensive did I say that?? where and did you happen to read where i wrote I bought every pack but the wedding pack and why I bought them????????????? of coarse notOriginally Posted by TrueMetal
People lik you confuse me. Now it's offensive for companies to make money? We still get the free issues. All we get to buy is fluff. Overpriced fluff in this case, but fluff none the less.
Read and take what you want from Post's but dont put words in other peoples mouths.
This pack is a money grubbing attempt to see how far they can squeeze a penny from us.
Now you can quote that sentence...
I hate quoting time playing this game but suffice it to say there once was a time they "DID" give emotes away for free with issues ..
The trent they are setting here is clear. I don't like nor do I have to like it, they asked for discussion im giving it.
If your confused then I feel sorry for you. It's really quite simple. -
I disagree with most people here
Nothing should have been added because this should have been given free or added to GR or I19
Like you used to do before the company decided to become all about the $ and less about the players/customers
Once upon a time there was a company that bragged about free content to gaming magazines and websites now that same company had died in my eyes.
I'm done with packs ive boughten all but the wedding pack .. Mostly to show support and give something back to COH and help keep it alive a little longer.
After seeing this rediculous offering I dont know wether to "lol" @ the marketers/devs or to cry and prepare my departure.
The direction your going in usually marks the end for me, money grubbing is a sure sign of a company I want no part in.
Sad very sad -
Quote:I have countless kins lolOriginally Posted by Shred_Monkey
You know. I might just try that. I'll speed boost as needed (someone low on endurance) or just not at all and see if anyone complains.
.
Truthfully and this is advice from the heart. If you dont want to sb your team then dont bother being a kin. FS is great but myself and most others who have a kin on theyre team who never sb's get quietly frustrated.
Tells start basicallly saying the kins a lump.
Fire/kins because of the damage dealt thru sort of paved the way for a passive umm guess youd call it, not worth ******** about attitude.
But you find that many wont reinvite you to teams or tf's later on. Unless your a fire/kin and theya re looking for damage you will slowly find you have no repeated invites from same teamates.
Unless u only sg/team but then why not take care of your sgmates ?
Look play whatever you want to play however you want to, but you asked for advice and opinions so im giving it.
Kins who dont sb are like trollers with no holds, or tanks with no taunt lol if you get my meaning.
Yes on full teams your in full kin mode sb'n, fs'n, healin, (heals debuff too so on avs u spam it), trasferriin and tossing in some attacks.
Its probly one of the most intesive toons to play and if done right rewarding in the fact you are considered a good player and skillful kin.
Cant tell you how many times ive gotten tells from half the team after a TF n AV broguth down saying, excellent kinning ..
Good luck in your decision but like I told a good friend everytime he makes a kin (been a few tries) "if you dont like buffing, why bother lol. you know your a scrapper at heart support isnt your style lol"
GL n TC
-
Pfft !
Stunt to push the party pack that everyone is dissapointed in
Makes me think even more they take us all for fools
No TY
"tears up invitation" -
Ive gotten at least 5 of them on my toons since release, so yup they drop. might be just dumb luck
got two im saving for no reason vet rewards n respec's for me r plenty lol maybe i should sell em ..

unnecessary
???
This is the forums its all unnecessary and necessary depending on your point of view hehehehe -
Quote:When we did this on test i wanted bring some sheild/buffs it seemed logical considering what we went through the time before ..Originally Posted by The_Masque
We did a follow up raid that was completed in 18 minutes. I think the key points (as MP stated) was:
3 Team Leaders were on Vent- It helped to coordinate when to take the obelisks.
2 'shielders' per team- FF/Colds.
Lots of debuffers (again here is where colds are nice).
Tanks that are WP/stone(maybe shield)- we ended up with 4 tanks all WP iirc.
Scrappers are great as damage dealers because they have mez protection.
As far as nukes/shivans/Heavies- When all was said and done only 4 bio-nukes were dropped and 1 or 2 chems. We did have a lot of Vanugard Heavies out, I counted at least 10 when we were done, and a few shivans shuffling around.
We dropped pets(most of us) then stacked team aura buffs at the door (RAs/AM) then split into 3 groups once the shields were down we converged on Ru' and spawned the rest of the pets and dropped 3 Bio nukes and the chem(s). We were not able to get him the 1st go around so we cleared the cubes again and the second time we converged we dropped 1 bio nuke and he was finished off rather fast.
18 minutes- 2 badges, 6 merits and a temp power.
One problem we had was character tool being down thus giving us liited access to toons.
I can see your teams fairly balanced.
I think that was the second biggest issue on test team balance was hard to do.
Gratz to completing it
BTW Voodoo girl my Globals same on live if you every looking for another person to fill a team, Freedom i have 1 of almost everything and virtue i have alot diff toons.
Got a 50 on every server anyways but enjoyed teaming with you
Gratz again Masque -
Quote:Yup i agree prepurchased took the day off work and here i am cant play on Freedom because mt empty slots are not thereOriginally Posted by Infinite_Zero
2nd night in a row of this occuring, and at the same time period.
Oh, and other times that the store has been down BEFORE i16, u were still able to use those unlocked slots.. its not letting ya now.. something is screwy
And making new toons on a dead server to transfer later is lame missing out on SG prestige, teamates, friends, teleporters
So why did I even take the day off
Once again they take 2 steps forward and 1 step back
never can be completely satified here
sad

Today in the weeee morning hours trash talk turned to violence.
[Broadcast] Project 3X: um i beat ur brute u liar
[Broadcast] Rumble. kid: RIGHT
[Broadcast] Project 3X: so i never beat u?
[Broadcast] Rumble. kid: NEVER
[Broadcast] Project 3X: omg
[Broadcast] Project 3X: u liar
[Broadcast] Project 3X: get ur brute now
[Broadcast] Project 3X: we go today
[Broadcast] Project 3X: right now
[Broadcast] Rumble. kid: LOL WHO EVER LOSES DELETES THERE TOONS
[Broadcast] Rumble. kid: THATS THE ONLY WAY I FIGHT NOW
[Broadcast] Project 3X: k deal
[Broadcast] Meat Monster: im here fool
An epic battle ensued between the Spines SR Scrapper and the SS Elec Brute.
The Meat came out to a devastating lead bringing Project down to half health in only a couple attacks. Project proceeded to pop elude and start to even the playing field. The Meat hit his Demonic accolade and Project ofcoursed stopped to say, "[Broadcast] Project 3X: lol accol". Project crashed from elude mere seconds later and proceeded to hit his Geas of the kind one accolade while hopping around no longer toe to toe with The Meat. After a few more painstaking minutes passed, Project found himself with little endurance and even less health. The Meat sitting comfortably at 500 hp went in and made short work of what was left of the eludeless scrapper.
Few got to witness this tragic yet thoroughly entertaining battle of two titans of the sport that we know as FiteKlub. I count myself as one of the lucky few, and thank my lucky stars for it.
Today will forever be a day of mourning for the loss of a RV icon, yet a day of joy for the supporters of The Meat.
GF Project 3x you die with honor.
P-X I always liked fighting u in pvp n the occasional tell saying good fight as we say nyt RV ... I'll miss the X-man

Quote:Just curious is it a Toshiba? running vista ? did you recently get a windows update?Originally Posted by Rigger4
The router is ours, and as far as I know no security settings have changed.
However, I have just discovered that I cannot connect to the internet using ANY routers (wirelessly, at least; I am able to connect using a CAT5 cable connection stolen from the SO) because my laptop thinks my wireless card is disconnected.
Saw this on some Toshiba laptops last year after a windows update the only solution we found was to rollback the update and set the auto update to off. and select specific updates ...
I forget wich updates actually did this, if i remember it was in a service pack 3 im assuming.
But 3 laptops all Toshiba's had same exact problem as you
Hope this helps

My personal choice is ATI
I havent been happy with Nvid in a few years, especially with theyre udating drivers and removing some options that years ago people liked and expected from them.
A few years ago i had to rollback drivers downloaded from NVid because the newer drivers and COH just didnt like eachother lol. Luckily i had saved them lol.
Nyways ..
ATI and COH has been problem free for me for several years
Good Luck

You mention you have taken everything apart and reassembled, its pretty common and easy to put the cpu fan on upsidedown ive noticed this alot when people upgrade or build a system.
As the gentleman above stated airflow is important clean out any vents .. smoking and dust not a good thing with pc's n ventilation just incaes u smoke lol u need to clean everything up it can be ewwy lol.
Cudo's for reapply'n the paste many skip that part
just curious when the temp peaks the fans sound ok? maybe you got a fan thats thrown a ball... they're easy enough to replace and cheap enough.
Good Luck
Hope all works out -

Expressing an opinion on this forum is just as much my right as it is yours, and it doesn't make me any more of a troll than it does you. I'm done here.

I vote for the Radeon HD 4850. That card has roughly the same capability as your nVidia 9800 GT. Newegg has one by my preferred company, XFX, for $109.
