    Cyborg leakage

    Meh.....methinks the 30 day jetpack is extracting the urine somewhat.
  2. btw thread is here

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat....e=0&fpart=1

    but only do this if you are sure you are okay with what he says
  3. If you read what I said, both me and others have and to absolutely no effect whatsoever, but it was reported for what little good it did.
  4. Not being funny but I wouldnt bother reporting it. Both myself and people I know have reported it, support goes through loads of bits then finally escalates it, which basically seems to mean they dont know so they are going to pretend they never received it.

    There is a thread somewhere either here or US side that gives a workaround if you want to fiddle with code etc, though personally if a player can solve it for people, i,m not sure why the Devs or support cant.

    Hehe complaining about a feature that we know almost no details about, and predicting DOOOOM™ because of it is a little daft.

    I dont fear for the future of CoX, even with the other MMOs that are coming soon, as we have no idea of the plans that NCNC have for the game. If, when the others appear, NCNC only release 2 new costumes and an inflatable banana temporary pet, THEN I'll be worried....

    I'm curious about why folks are so obsessed with XP; I guess it just depends on how you use the game.

    Firstly, I have just stated that I am unhappy with the change, not cried DOOM in the slightest and only ask that it has an off feature as I dont want it.

    As for the future of CoX, I dont know what will happen, it will continue for a while no doubt, though personally, imo, I think it will die a natural death unless some pretty good stuff is added, it is after all a 4 year old game (and No I dont think I13 as it has been announced will be enough to keep folk interested beyond the first week)

    Finally, I am not obsessed with xp, in fact the opposite as I am quite happy to play the game and just get whatever xp I get, I just dont want the experience ruined by being forced to take extra when I dont want it.

    Oh and to the guy above that post, farmers like everyone else will get an extra little boost to their xp and I have nothing against people being happy, it just shouldnt be at others expense.
  6. Aside from not liking games introducing either xp or xp boosts while offline in general, my other problem with it is that I have loads of low level alts waiting for their turn at life.

    This game is hard enough to try to get the badges and missions you want at low level before you outlevel them anyway. I know it will probably be minimal xp but all the same, if they must have it, then we need an off switch so we dont outlevel things. Not one of my alts so far has managed to get the caverns of transcendence for example.
  7. Was reading http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/3/feature/2205 and found this bit :-

    "The time that you are off game will also provide you an XP bonus when you log back in, "

    Why on earth introduce this? I hate this type of thing, they had it in LotR as well and it sucks.

    What is wrong with earning xp the good old fashioned way? I know it is probably a nominal amount but even so, are they that eager to please farmers?

    I just hope there is a way to turn off this naff unwanted (by me at least) feature. If I wanted to play WoW, I would go play WoW.
  8. No offence to you, but while you would find an arc about all your alts fascinating, other people may be bored to tears by it and it would not mean a thing to them.

    Just an observation....
  9. Well if thats the case then it really sucks. People have spent up to 4 years making their unique characters only for something to come along that could possibly make a travesty of everything they have put into those characters.

    Personally, I hope players names cannot be used unless its by them.

    I have no problem with people using their own alts as characters, as quoted in the first line of my post, I just dont think other people should have control over using my alts names etc in missions.

    If this editor allows us to add our own custom Archvillains the devs will earn a big kiss from me! I read with great enthusiasm about the archvillain system they had considered some time ago (over a year and a half since I head about it, in fact) and this would be an excellent time for a workaround method of adding just that.

    With our own storylines and our own villains, Architect could be one of the greatest features ever, and easily one of the best roleplay features of any MMO to date!

    I have taken the time to create my characters, outfit them as I wish etc and it would hack me off no end to find that one of them had been created as a fat blue elf, wearing a bikini in somebody elses mission arc.

    With PvP you get to wave your tackle as some newbie who will never return, and watch your hard earned PvP rep vanish into nothingness if you don't keep on wasting your time. No tangible reward at the end of it, so a total waste of time.

    Couldnt you kill them while they were busy laughing at your tackle?
  13. Lol No offence, but when was the last time you did the ITF, as I do it often and lag hill is still a nightmare and hasnt changed one iota.

    i13 Architect

    I think the Merit rewards could be interesting, as could the day jobs.

    The mission creator is a bit naff really, as you are still gonna get the same old office layouts etc with everything you have fought in them before anyway, its something to keep the roleplayers happy. Creating maps could have been cool.

    Extra missions in Cim is good, hopefully without the TF lag, as are any other option for extras.

    "empathy" for villains is good, but personally I think shields suck, (unless you can have cool Sue Storm type ones)

    I look forward to the release ( next year? ) as anything that injects new life and brings some of our SG members back is a good thing

    One thing I would love to see is individual bases, with lots of options for design, not like the 2 you have for SG bases. Chakyra DESERVES her fiery hell-like cave
  15. I also noticed under special, that they have a Wentys and BM transporter bow too, not the one off power but actual transporters.

    I want one now.................
  16. shazan

    Wentys gone down

    Me and a few other folk not getting anything in the markets heroside.

    Tried Steel and Atlas and nothing comes up
  17. Thanks FFM, dont have any auras though, and water settings are low anyway.

    It logs in fine after restart, its just a pain in the [censored] when logging in and out to check alts wentys etc
  18. The way I look at it, they have about 50 DxDiags, 20 Everests and numerous hijackThis reports, they can browse all my older ones.

    I just wish support was worth contacting,lol, you could say your leg was falling off and they would still get you to all the above )
  19. I seem to get a crash a lot, where I log a character out, then when I go to log another one in, the moment I hit defiant, it crashes out.

    I have gone down the road of customer support who have got me to run endless tests, despite me telling them that others in my SG, various teams and my flatmate are all getting it too.

    Does anyone else get this and has anyone found a solution?
  20. Sorry if this has been posted anywhere, but would it be possible to arrange the costume slots, so you can choose which one is the main costume you see on the character screen.

    Quite often I change my original concept a bit and wish one of the others was the main, but dont want to go through redoing them all to get the right one at the start of the 5.
  21. Maybe they are changing coh so you play by email and take turns in fights....the offline reward being that its still faster than fighting through all the lag
  22. which type is your alt out of interest as some crashes seem to be Ill/kin
  23. shazan

    Ill/Kin crashing

    My other half is getting it on his Ill/kin all the time, especially today, yet has been fine till recently and is okay on other alts.
  24. Thanks GR

    Was just a bit worrying as they show as Maestro on my statements, despite being Solo.

    Its good to know there shouldnt be any problems
