I will admit that a coherent prim/sec combo for both a power armor and gadget themed character would be great, those who recognize where those suggestions come from will recognize that they are some of the better aspects of that game, Coh needs to get to stealin'.

in my experience (capcom vs snk, guilty gear XX#reload) it can be hard to play precision characters with network latency, but one on one fighters do work out better than mmo pvp. at worst you get one moron at a time, rather than an entire community of them.

added note: this is NOT saying that all pvpers are members of that community, I met a lot of fun players back in the day, but that socially retarded 25%-40% of the pvp community that shows up in any game with pvp, usually higher numbers the more you can attack defenseless or heavily outclassed players to disrupt their play, is prevalant enough to make people not want to play.

Diplomatic as ever, but not entirely without some truth. any game that has been around for over a year is going to have a established community, if you just pop in and hide in the corner, you are gating yourself out. The reason i dislike the term "gated" community is that it implies exclusion, there are some twits, there are in every game, but coh does have a reputation that i try to do my part to justify of being a really new player friendly game, but we cant be welcoming if we don't see you. So its a two-directional onus(for some reason , that sounds dirty). vets should help new players, but new players have to let vets know where they are.

as the real world analogy goes, you cant complain about not enjoying a dance if all you did was stand in the corner.

lets say i was peasently surprised. expedience tends to suggest reused models, so them putting in the work to make them unique was not unappreciated.

no, but you have given me the idea to make a second account to argue with myself with, so something good has come of this.

But that's the problem, a few of his points were opinions, and you noticed that those weren't instantly pounced on, its only when he made the absolutely factually inaccurate statements that he got stomped. Plus, while everyone makes grammar errors, including myself, there is a issue of how much you respect your reader if you post like that, its basically saying, you aren't important enough for me to try to be coherent, and that starts things off poorly. mistakes are bad, but that was barely the post of a native English speaker. In fact, we have several non-native speakers who express themselves more clearly than that. there are opinions and there are factually incorrect statements.

Case in point, I made 3 bad typos in this post, out of respect for the reader, they were fixed, ya get me? We are not teenagers texting.

ya know, i wasn't positive, so figured that i'd hedge my bets. but that really make my point stronger, that he complaining about something that didnt exist and hasn't for some time. thanks though.

no idea what the hell gameworld is, its getting a stellar representation thus far, but this is the coh forums, we speak English(and german and french) around here, do try to keep up. good use of hyperbole though, it really helps make you seem like a rational poster with legitimate posts. people wanted the badge costs down so that they could get the badges in regular play, not farming. For badges like illusionist, this was difficult, its less so now, this is a good thing, if i have to screw around pling or farming to get badges, than they are poorly designed . Also, vills no longer have to fight twice as many mayhem heroes as heroes did. plus, we got badge bars, those were asked for, and the devs put them in, was that bad too? again, dont pvp, dont care, but i understand that defenders particularly psi/rads were the nasty ones. fotm builds in pvp are not new nor unique to the game. you can check that right now, go to wow's main site and check their monthly sub fees, then go to coh's and check theirs, its the same. 14.99 for a monthly fee is the standard rate for mmos and has been for some time. a few have found ways to lower this cost, or have lowered the cost because of low subscriber numbers, or, in the case of ffXI they give limited subs and had additional cost for other things we take for granted, but just about every upper tier western mmo is the same. but do it right now and see what we have been saying, becasue apparently you think that several of us are lying about the cost, its easy to check, do you need the links? we feared that they would do this lazy route, fortunatly they instead are putting in effort and making new art assets, as well as the fire whip attacks that will be the first flexable weapons added to this game, something lacking from many games due to their difficulty in animating properly. physician, heal thyself.

out of curiosity, what other mmo do you play? psu and recently lotro are the only ones that have sub 15 dollar sub fees(well, the Korean freemos and guild wars too, but those are a different situation entirely), all the rest are 15 bucks monthly, less if you get in 6 or 12 month blocks, i personally havent paid 15 bucks for years, they have recently had deals where you paid about 10 bucks a month for 14 month blocks. you got taxed because they had a physical location in your state, the rest of us dont pay sales tax, blame the tax code for that one.

worked for Buffy against Glory.

also, i dont know how often this needs repeated, but forum reg date is not game registration date, froum reg dates tell us nothing. as for when, i'm leaning to early feb too, id expect 2-3 months beta test, so to hit in the second quarter, we'd need to start no later than midway through the first quarter.
