  1. Honestly, I'd rather not jump through a bunch of hoops in order to have a super hero that can fly. And I had no idea the majority of this stuff existed, which I'm sure 99% of new players will also not know this.
  2. I actually started supers MMOs with Champions Online. Unfortunately, I hate the direction it is currently heading in, so I am switching to COH. However, the one thing I really think CO does better than COH is give everyone a travel power at level 5. I'm sure some won't like it, but I think it will definitely help keep new players around longer.

    Ok, wish I knew that. That is a really weird bug, that should have been killed as soon as it was found, though.

    OK WTF!!!! It thinks I have deleted the game! And is trying to download it. I did not erase anything from this game!

    (I did just delete Champions Online, but I would hope that would not affect CoH).

    Coh will be installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes. Select NO to choose a different folder.

    I click yes.
    Then get:
    Error Opening C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe

    You may be out of disk space or you may be trying to install to a location where you have insufficient permissions.

    I get this even in Admin mode. And I have tons of spare memory.

    I just started playing a few days ago. This came up about 10 minutes ago when I tried to play.

    I tried logging into the game, and the patcher kicked in. But it refuses to open the CoHUpdater.exe file, even when I open it as an admin. This is on Vista 64.
  9. Well, I'm running a Defender with Storm and Ice Blast. Thanks everyone!
  10. I'm very new to CoH (having come here from CO). Is there a powerset for mages, with circles and such? Or should I just go with something like Ice and Darkness, etc?
  11. I found it. There is a hotfix for the 9_12 drivers that fixed the problem. I should just know that it is ATI incompetence by now.
  12. I use Vista 64 on a Dell XPS with an ATI Radeon 4860.

    I just bought the game, and it appeared to install and update fine. But when I click to first page after the verify page, my whole screen starts flickering like crazy and I cannot use any of the buttons on the screen. I have the latest 9_12 drivers installed.

    OK, now I can at least click buttons and pick a server, etc. However, the game is still flickering like crazy.

    In addition to all the flickering, my resolution is way down as well. But I can't find any way to work with my video settings.
