I'm back! Some questions.

I haven't been playing since Issue 13 or 14 - what have I missed?

Trying to play catchup by scanning through the forums. One thing I notice is the game looks much better.

Welcome home - you've missed one or two new things

Try here for an Issue overview:

One important thing you missed is that everyone is now very enthusiastic about Setting their LF Flags in-game (when appropriate).

As a result, PuGging is easier and more fun for everyone!

All the cool kids are doing it, jump on board!

Been watching all the trailers and reading through those ParagonWiki updates. Looks like some good things have been happening. See you all in-game!

welcome back!

If you're watching vids, you might also want to go see Dark_Respite/Samuraiko's videos. I think she made a video for each issue : link

One big difference you'll find is the mailing system. You'll now be able to mail influence and a limited number of items, even to your global address. So use your top dog to finance your new toons. Currently its still separated blue side / red side, but I think that's changing next issue with the market mergers. Some are also using the mailing system for creative solutions, like storing inspirations until needed in a mission. Since we don't have a specific mailbox to attend, you can grab what you need whenever.

Yeah I've seen some of her videos since last night, and my son is familiar with them, so I've learned quite a bit so far. The next issue and CoH:GR looks pretty sweet. For one thing I need to upgrade my rig so I can take advantage of Ultra Mode.
