  1. I am pretty sure that the badge (and the Praetorian invasion event), will go on all the weekend after 27th, even if Freedom won't reach 2500 players in the 3 hour window.....i speculate that is already planned this way from the devs (they don't tell though cause they want to test the server as they mentioned.......all the previous extensions of previous events lead me to that thinking
  2. come on... THIS. IS. CRAZY.

    EDIT : someone timed the lag here, we can fire a power every 24 sec
  3. atm we are having the worst lag ever in the weekly defiant MSR raid, and we are not even on the ship...

    THX a lot GG, ....... nothing more to say
  5. sorry but the trial is meant for 24 ppl, MM included, and ppl with lore pets... any other solution than fixxing the lag is not good for a shiny new content

    totally agreed
  7. i must add here that all 24 ppl in leage experienced the same lag
  8. Last night i did a Lambda wich was laggy but at least bearable... after that we formed a full league for BAF and the lag was TERIBLE, slow motion movement, NO way to know what attacks you had ready.....aufull..... we managed to beat both AV, and although both showed 0 HP, one respawned (?????).... we beat them again and this time we got lucky...


    after that i don't want to step in a BAF anymore, it was NOT fun...

    all i am trying to say to devs is that they put a lot of work to make something good, but if they want us to keep playing it and ENJOY it, they SHOULD really fix this (i can't imagine what will happen in future trials that would require more ppl)
  9. i took part in the all fire ITF with my SS/fire brute, so you need at leat one of the sets to be electric
  10. great news and all, i will probably not use it, but good to have more slots to experiment a bit if i like.......
    ...but, didn't the devs said that they will give reactivation weekends and other things before that, so that the global name problem would be solved as much as possible?

    this, both my fire and elec brutes are at cap resistance (fire and energy accordingly)
  12. i don't know if it counts as a "power", but the favorite incarnate for me is Cardiac from alpha slot, it makes my heavy togled toons to be more "carefree" (i usually run a lot of togles even in non-melee toons)
  13. gz Mrs

    i finshed my last tier 4 yesterday too, i run a couple of BAFs (wich i think in some of theese we were in the same leauge) to get the last very rare i needed, but in the end i paid the inf and crafted it (i really wanted to move in the next toon)....


    i kinda knew that @Target would be one of the firsts to complete the new incarnates , i knew that he had about 900 shards the day before i20 went live , gz to you to mate
  14. i had the same problem... i solved it with unistalling the game.... reinstall it with the old coh updater.... and don't touching thenew installer atm

    The learning curve on this is WAY faster than I anticipated. As long as people listen, the iTrials are really not that hard - and they get easier as more and more people get iShifted.

    Avoiding random queueing also helps, I think.
    exactly this
  16. we tried an Lambda Mo attempt last night... we got the 10 acid grenades and the 10 pacifiers from sabotage stage..... we passed all of them in one player. we got out in courtyard and we started beating Marauder without using pacifiers and without closing the portals.... we were doing quite good, and when 1:30 min left, we had him at 24 HP but he was in unstoppable... we decided to use 1 pacifier to complete, and we took him down... but the badge for killing him, without using acid grenades to close the portals was not awarded to us... are the three badges linked, was it a bug, did we did something wrong. ?.. can anyone give some info?
  17. after 4-5 hours trying to log with launcher and old updater.... i unistalled the game and i am trying to reinstall with the old updater... lets hope tomorow morning i will be able o log....

    Let me also offer a bit of advice. I ran into the same problem these guys are describing, but under Win 7x64. I got around it by right clicking on the launcher icon and selecting 'Run as Administrator'.
    i tried that , it didn't worked for me sadly, windows vista here

  22. we can take a break from non stop incarnate trials and do it... not much fan off Mo runs, but i am easy...
