Farewell, City of Heroes!

After more than five years (I was in beta) of playing City of Heroes, I'm leaving. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here. City of Heroes has an awesome group of fans! And you devs, continue the good work with this game - you've really made some great changes and updates!

I'm leaving City of Heroes because of time and money and other circumstances, but this game will always stick out to me as one of the greatest MMORPGs ever made. Thanks a lot, everyone!


How much do you want to bet the same guy that designed Circle of Thorns also designed those Sky Raider machetes?

I was shocked. really.

If they did that, then I'd suggest they keep paying for the game so they'll have a load of Vet rewards when they come back

I don't know you, but in all of this time I may well have teamed with you at some point. Take care!

Then I could afford a top line rig that would allow me to keep playing from any location on the planet.

I could also afford to go to the devs in person and give them a dump truck full of cash with the instructions to spend it on more costumes and base lovin.

Hmm... you guys want my stuff? Alright... tell you what. My last day is July 28th. If you can catch me on, send me a tell and prove to me you've teamed with me at some point. I'll give you something if you have. My global name is @Crocker.

Have fun.

i kinda got burnt out on CoH too. Gonna take a break but i honestly don't know if i'm coming back. I'll probably re-activate just to see what's in the time capsule, but that's about it.

things i think the game needs:

-log out to character select screen
-ability to mail things
-windowed mode

I play the lottery on a semi regular basis, so in my day dreaming I have thought about this exact scenario. Since I very much would love to travel the world, but I don't think I'd give up CoH.

In fact I would probably just buy 2 ridiculously high powered lap tops with satellite internet connection so that my girlfriend and I could play CoH in our down time during our travels around the world. And then I could inform all the people I team with of the lovely view I have in India while I am playing the game.

Of course I would only be able to do a couple missions at a time between sight seeing and what not, but I like this game too much to just walk away from it.

OP: Sorry to see you go, we hope you come back soon and in the mean time.. Help the economy, let some of your friends haz ur stuf.

Windowed mode? We have had that since the beginning. The ability to change to window sizing is in the graphics setting option, at the bottom of the list of different resolutions.

way to try to bogart a nice goodbye thread, you attention [censored!!

hate to see someone leave due to logistics clay, hope things change for the better and you come back (so don't give everything away), the more vets playing the better for everyone.


and to the sat. internet connection speculation; HELL NO, it won't work, latency is wayyyy too high, even on it's best day it would work worse then a dial up connection. satellite internet is a last ditch effort at best, although i may be harboring some bitterness.


Oh yeah, that was the time that girl got her whatchamacallit stuck in that guys dooblickitz and then what his name did that thing with the lizards and it cleared right up.

screw your joke, i want "FREEM"
