Quote:The answer to both is no. Only resistance characters can enter the underground resistance bases. Loyalists can't. If you get to level 21+ and leave praetoria choosing hero or villain, you will no longer be able to enter the bases regardless of whether or not you were resistance when you chose a final alignment.1) Can non Praetorians enter the Resistance areas? (Underground areas with the trainers)
2) If they cannot, can Praetorians that finish and leave Praetoria as Loyalist enter? I know Resistance can.
I have gone fully through praetoria on at least a couple characters. I even took my main hero there once and found I couldn't enter the underground bases. But everything the underground bases have is available above ground such as the hospital, trainer, vault, and in the case of underground Imperial, an auction house. There are no exploration badges inside the underground bases but there is a badge outside each base near the door.
Another thing to note, once your praetorian character reaches level 21 you can no longer do any missions in praetoria aside from the mission that has you choose to join hero or villain side, and any missions you took prior to level 21 you can finish. Non praetorians can't do the missions period. all they can do is the 3 zone events. And the level 1-20 praetorian missions are not in Ouroboros flashback.

Welcome back to the game.
Some time back City of Heroes and City of Villains were merged into 1 game. Hero archetypes and power sets can now be created as villains and vice versa. You can also create a character for either side now. Unfortunately there isn't a way to tell which server(s) you have created characters on without logging into a server first.

Quote:Yeah support can be a bit dimwitted sometimes. I added a couple in-game screen shots proving that I could log into both master accounts through the paragon market and that I wasn't typing in the wrong passwords. They reset my passwords and security questions anyway and sent a password reset email for my secondary account to my primary account's email and didn't send an email for my primary account. So they had to reset my primary account again and resend the email.I think I can be hard on them for:
- Closing a support ticket and telling me that I have to submit a new one, despite giving them:
- 25 serial codes applied to my account
- my credit card info (last 4 digits)
- my physical address
- my birthday
- my unique plaync accounts
- Telling me that I had to submit another support ticket, despite having all the information given to them.
- Telling me that someone would be back to me in under an hour, and instead taking almost double that.
- Having a second customer support representative (supposedly an account support specialist) tell me that they can't find my first and last name when I submitted most of the previous information again (they only took 1 serial code and didn't ask for my unique plaync accounts).
- Despite that they had at least 4 other means of identification, they still didn't reset my security questions.
They can't do anything about my IP changing my address. I fully expect that my security questions got erased with the move last week. However, they can control their own actions.
Closing an account support question, despite going through the website "ask a question" support site and being given more than enough identification to properly verify an account, should be completely unacceptable. The first CS person should have escalated the support question if they couldn't deal with it themselves. This despite the fact the original support question was sent through the web form directed at the account services, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten "hey does all this Aion Account help pages solve your problem?".
Don't feel too bad. I told them "fix the damn website" lol but I apologized to them later for being rude.
A couple days later they said they put in a 'fix' and to try it now. I can still log into both master accounts at the NC Soft website. It's possible they were able to fix my accounts only and have to do it on a per account basis until they find a way for a more thorough permanent fix.

They seem to have fixed the NC Soft website with the master account log in problem for https://login.ncsoft.com/login/loginform. If all else fails, try contacting support here https://support.cityofheroes.com/app...Ull5QnR6MWw%3D
They will ask you to provide information to prove you own the account and after you give them enough info they will reset your password and clear your security questions. If they don't clear your questions then ask if they can. You will receive an email with a temporary password to log into your master account and once you do you should be required to reset it to a permanent password and redo your security questions.
It's possible you also had your IP address 'authorized' in your master account and the address has changed since then. This happened to me once and it completely prevented me from accessing my master account. I went through the steps I listed, reset my password, rechose my security questions and answers and was able to log in, authorize my new IP address and removed the old address for security reasons. (I only access my master account from home and I still lived at the same physical address, just my IP address was changed) Make sure to mention it to support if you did have an IP address authorized. If you can't remember, then ask them to check it. -
To everyone that was having problems logging in to their NC Soft master accounts at https://login.ncsoft.com/login/loginform Try it now. It seems they have fixed it finally.

Quote:It's possible your IP address has changed. I had that happen once and couldn't log in to my master account at all, even though I was trying to access it at the same physical address. I contacted support, gave them the info they requested, and they reset my password and security questions. I was then able to log in, reset my password and questions, and authorize my new IP address and removed the old IP just to be safe.I got it to recognize my account/password, but now I have to guess the correct capitalization of my security questions because my computer "isn't trusted".
This is <pancake>.
They seem to have fixed it though. I was able to log in on both master accounts without a problem through the website. https://login.ncsoft.com/login/loginform -
You should be able to log into your master account via the Paragon Market in the game. Click the shop button on your screen and in the top right of the window click Account.
Currently due to a major change on the NC Soft website, people aren't able to log into their master accounts.
You can see here http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=292987 there are complaints about it. -
Quote:Who said anything about a 'plot' to force us to use the game interface? Some people just don't like the idea of putting in credit card information though the game interface. For me it's more a matter of preference than trust.Using the game to update your info and purchase points is as safe as doing it from the website. In fact, it's also more reliable for now. It's a known system with fixed parameters. This is not a plot to force everyone to flee from web browsers, but it is an option that you should feel comfortable using for now.
I do understand that there are still those of you having difficulties logging in through the website, I'm actually one of those. The reality is at that this is an ongoing initiative and resolving it quickly is not likely.
The folks in Customer Service also cannot do much more than they have been able to do so far, so please don't be too hard on them.

I am STILL having problems. https://login.ncsoft.com/login/loginform
I have 2 master accounts. My main created in 2006 with Guild Wars and City of Heroes and a recent account I made in May 2012 with only CoH added to it. The error I am getting is that my account name and/or password is wrong. Yet I can log into both master accounts via the Paragon Market in CoH.
I contacted support and all they did was reset my passwords and security questions. Nope. Didn't work. The temporary passwords given so I can go in and change them to what I want weren't recognized. Thankfully I was able to use them and reset them through the Paragon Market in CoH.
My only guess is that the NC Soft website log in is not checking account credentials against the Guild Wars/City of Heroes database and ONLY checking to see if the usernames/passwords are Lineage II/Aion accounts.
At the NC Soft website I can click on 'Create Account' and it takes me to a page with 2 options: crate an account for Lineage II/Aion or Guild Wars/City of Heroes. I click the GW/CoH and type in both my account names and they show up as taken.
This is increasingly frustrating. Sadly, and thankfully, I don't have the funds for the rest of the month to buy Paragon Points. But if it isn't fixed next month, I won't be buying anymore until it is.
I have the same sentiment as the post before mine:
Quote:I don't trust the paragon market for purchasing points. I'd rather go to the NC Soft website and log into my master account and do it that way.Originally Posted by Father XmasI also can't get in. Hope this gets resolved soon because I don't consider the game to be a safe way to access my NCSoft account for stuff like updating my CC info -
Funny, I just got this power yesterday on a character. The chaingun comes with 30 uses. Fun to use in the summer event on AVs.

Personally I would be happy with the Tab key targeting and cycling through the NEAREST enemies first. I get so sick of pressing the key to target something closer only to target something halfway across the zone or even off to the side of the screen that isn't even in my line of site.
Sure I can use Alt+Tab to target nearest enemy but when I'm needing to move into position to attack the next enemy on a melee character, using my pinky finger to hit Tab is quicker and easier and prevents me from having to take my hand off the movement keys so I can keep moving. -
Quote:And a monkey/gorilla head with matching feet that look like hands. I want to make a hairy ape character but there is no option and I'm too dumb to figure out how to achieve that. Besides there isn't any feet that would come close with legs set to Monster.Probably already been said in the thread but more animal parts please to use with recently released water blast set and upcoming nature affinity set. Would love to see a shark fin backpack, squid face, proper deer antlers, badger face, for example.
It would make great sense to release a costume pack that meshes with new power sets (if applicable) and release both close to the same time, increase sales while demand for the power set is high. Instead of just selling a power set why not make another $5 on a costume pack at the same time? Maybe sell the costume set one week prior to power set release to ramp up the excitement.
Edit: Would be so cool to make my Huge bodies Titan Weapons character into a giant mace swinging gorilla. -
I want shorts for male characters. All we have are those stupid boxing shorts that are only unlocked via Paragon Rewards while female characters have 4 different shorts in the Shorts/Skirts category as well as 6 short patterns with the lower body set to "with skin" (it's actually 3 different shorts but each has a second "with tights" pattern).
I would like Jean shorts, swimming trunks, maybe surfing shorts, heck even boxer shorts, for all character body types.
And fix the damn Boots>Sneakers for males so we can have them WITHOUT SOCKS. Why is it only female characters have the option to have the Sneakers without socks?
Also Flip Flops and/or Sandals for feet to go with swimming trunks/surfer shorts. Would have made sense for something like this to come out for the summer but it's halfway over now.
And another thing: don't make it a "seasonal" item in the shop for a limited time. I hate that and so do many others.
Edit: And baggy pants with boxers sticking out the top. It's a very popular style in real life. I wouldn't wear it like that myself, don't got much for a behind to hold them up lol. -

Well the info in the game on the NPC costume powers says it can't be use with "most" stealth powers. Try a stalker using hide. It does in fact work, so the mechanic is already there. I have a stalker and had bought all of the new NPC costume powers and each one can be used on my stalker with Hide. Other characters with powers such as Shadow Fall and Superior Invisibility turn off the costume power and vice versa.
Evidence:
-
Well we already have individual fingers and feet that look like toes that they could use for future development and possibly changes to existing parts.
Have you ever looked at an Arachnos Soldier's hands? Even when his hands are closed into fists you can see see the knuckles as individual fingers. As for the feet, Pocket D Strapped Heels for female characters. They really did that well and I think when it first came out people complained about the toes looking too big or something and it was eventually fixed to look better.
Oh and as far as "we have hands with lines for fingers", well, have you ever looked at the Valkyrie gloves closely? No lines at all. A lot of gloves look like "mittens" and could use an overhaul if you ask me. So I'm all for making Boots>Flat look a lot better and more realistic. They've already proven it's possible with the examples I've given. -
If it is possible to get your to hit up to the level for instant snipe and keep it there permanently, why didn't the devs just change sniper attacks by reducing the cast time and removing the interrupt instead?
-
It's tricky but not impossible. Took me about a dozen tries and 2 days trying to get it. I lined myself up and superjumped into Hami's forcefield thing and eventually landed on top of it just long enough to have it awarded before I got killed again.

You should be able to use Shadow Cloak with super speed for an increase in your stealth. From the looks of things you can't use it with other stealth powers.

Quote:LOLDon't think of it as thread necromancy, think of it as using the Flashback system to replay content we'd all out-leveled.
Well all these months I've been playing, since Freedom launched, I was under the impression that The Pilgrim's story arc was not doable through flashback and if you didn't get these badges you were out of luck. -
Really? I checked all of the level ranges a couple days ago searching for them on my main who is level 50. The only Night Ward arcs I saw was the VIP only arcs. Fireball and Trilogy are free for everyone and weren't there. I also checked the level 46-50 range thinking they might be there, much like The Pilgrim in Ouro is level 25-50 but he shows up in the level 46-50 range, and no luck. The Fireball and Trilogy contacts for Night Ward seems to not exist in Ouro. Although I could just go to Night Ward on my main and do them, but what if I wanted to do them again later?
