    But like all Closed Beta's I bet ther eis a statement about not telling that you got into it......

    edit: And if anything, its a slap in the face to RMT/powerlevelers. Your "services" just became *that* much more irrelevant, you got one less thing to sell. GO AWAY.
    Totally disagree..... Also disagree about the casual commentys from earlier poster ... I feel that lev 20 for EAT is patheticly stupid.... it took me two years of casual play to get my first 50 to unlock my HEAT and the same for my VEAT ... by droppng the level it is lessening the what some of us went through to get our 50's in the old days and now they just giving them away. Even a casual player can solo to 20 in a few days at worst case in the new world...... I do not understand why when its so esy to get to 50 now they have to lessen it.... just plain pointless.... .
  3. I have a feeling that the 'balance' is restored in Praetoria by Calvin Scott somehow being the Praetoria version of Recluse as something had to happen to the Uber Other Power ..... either that or there is someone missing from Primal earth who would be the equivalent of shadow to the light and dark
  4. Well seesm some are lucky with the vet getting sorted.... all details upto date blah blah and not heard anything since Dec28... .it is now Jan 13 .....

    Anyway I shall carry on spamming them to fix it.... until its done.
  5. Great, wonderfull, amazing, awesome ....

    now can you actually get someone to fix the awarding of the Vets as I have now been waiting over a month for resolution on my 57 month one..... Been waiting for 3 weeks for a reply on this ;o((((

    Also a bit annoyed that people don't like the fact that some people hav ebeen here sinvce the game started and they want the same as them ... personally what a load of rubbish... these are probably the same people who started with WOW or something instead of COH .. so why dumb down the rewards for those of us who have been here for 5 years just to keep newbies happy?
  6. Hi All,

    While in game today I was aked by a hero from Australia if there was a way to transfer from Europe servers to States servers to assist withthe time zones?
  7. Surely the drop rates should be based on random? Therfore what you got pre-i16 doesn't neccesarily mean you get teh same post i16 etc etc....
  8. Personally, I've not noticed any differnece as never got any purple drops ever pre-i16 and after i16, also I feel that in a way if the rates have been dropped it is bringing a little sanity to the markets, especially as you can get most of your recipes now from MA tickets and merits...

    TBH it just seems that people have been spoilt in the past with the number of drops they weree getting as opposed to now....

    I16 and Farming?

    I just cant get over the moaning that goes on these boards.... lets all agree that there are just 3 sides to this.... the farmers version, the casual player version and teh powerleveller version and never shall they all agree on anything in thsi game... Get over it peeps... I love soloing my toons so see this as a fun addition even though the last 2 issues were light on content....
  10. Personally as a player who has done a lot of CoH and Cov solo I think this is not a good idea... after all it is a MMORPg and if you can't find a team so what ... In the old days when debt was a killer it actually gave you time to do other missions that you would normally have out levelled...

    As I said this is my opinion and it counts for naught .

    Issue with base

    rent is always paid on time as soon as it pops up off we go to pay it.... thats not the problem

    Issue with base

    Hi all,

    Anyone know why I have the following problem with my base:

    I have 5000 control and 2000 energy yet it reckons i'm not producing any and therefore cannot access any of the tables and telepads.

    I deleted all items that require power and control meaning i have more than enough of both being produced yet nothing is working.

    COX Lore

    one never knows with the two of them ... a love hate relationship ... hmmmm

    COX Lore

    Ta Kinder ..... want to catch up on the history and stuff as the main page doesnt go into the details about the Stes / Recluse relationship and stuff ;o)

    COX Lore

    Hi all,

    Just wondering if anyone had any links to the lore of the game.... not just the one on the main CoH page......
  16. ... bit late for April Fools Day ;oP ...
  17. The other obvious point is that in some cases a villain could just be a hero who likes to get a lil somthing on the side... kind of like a mercenary... so shouldn't be to hard to see more avenues for co-ops ;o)

    and on this topic i fully agree... /signed
  18. Out of all the end level AT's, my widow is the only one i could stomach to get past lev24 for the simple reason that she is a killing machine both solo and teamed.

    Have lost a bit of interest in her at moment due to the wonderfull grind that is lev 40 to 50 in grandville ... but she is still on target to be my quickest to 50.

    Soldiers are imo suited to certain types of gameplay and in this case they dont suit mine same as kheldians.
  19. Guys, thanks for all the replies..

    Just to point out that it is not my ISP side causing the issue as I've had to do the same with Warhammeronline and my other online games and those flew down the line at breakneck speeds.

    It is only when it comes to CoH i have the problem. I am however back up and runnin gnow .... so see ya all on in the city/isles
  20. At present just trying to get the client to do the install. problem is more around the version of the client being used to do the install... seems to be updating in batches, then reconnecting then reupdating to next one and doing the verify and file fix...
  21. to download the game client? the reson i ask is that once again i've been nailed by a serious pc bug that resulted in me getting a new pc. problem is that in th almost 4 years in the game i only have the original disk available and its causing me headaches to do the game client download and install. 3 days and counting to try get it down and installed......
  22. Personally i find playing solo on villains easier than playing solo on heroes and therfore it doesn't really impact.
  23. Water Power sets would be awesome ;o) Then again with all talk of the original origins in the tales along the way from the midnight club may well open this up....

    Dual Pistols ... Easy enough to do...

    And now for something completely different....

    How about the possibility of Heroes and Villains rising above the pettiness of hero/villain rivalry and follow a path together through more shared mission zones kind based on similar beliefs, i.e. like cults dedicated to debt ;o) and have their own meeting/sg type places
  24. As a mind/kin I find SB to be great and even though I have ID, I find I never use it.... probably cause I'm to busy faceplanting thinking I'm a tank ;o)))

    TBH I find transference, transfusion and Fulcrum Shift to be the kinetic powers I most use....
