Your Highness was suppossed to be terrible, and for that I loved it! So it's not terrible! Because they were made to act terrible! That was part of the point of it.

Thanks VK!
Good coverage... I really need to start getting in on these so I can ask my own questions...
Like if we'll ever get the rest of the CoT costume pieces.
Hell, I'd settle for them just being available in AE right now, my customized CoT faction looks like they're made up of damned Philistines with their short skirts and lacking tall hats!

Hapkido? niice, wish there was a school near here that taught that.
A winner is you!
Somebody requested this in the chat and I said I'd give it a shot. Downloaded the recording, converted it to WMV, cropped it to like 4 seconds, threw it in a Video->Gif animator, put the resulting gif in GIMP, took out some excess frames. Here ya go. It's not really well-looped, but hope you like it anyway.
Thanks from us that sleep when the sun comes up!
No one pays attention to me, cause I listen to the voices in my head.

And that's for just the first account. I have two, so I'd need two seperate accounts for the two codes.
I'll stick with #3, then. I don't care how many choose #2 and get away with it, it's still something NC Soft shouldn't be pushing people to do.
Thanks for at least telling me I'll never be getting it, now I can stop waiting for it to show up in the store.

Von Krieger - Thank you for the Dev Chat Highlights! As always, you picked up things I missed even while watching it live.
Psychoti - Whahahaha! Thank you, thank you, for humoring my request. I'm saving that one in my all-time fan favorite videos. ;->

Yeah, these all go on while I'm at work. Good to see a rundown of it though! Wish I could've been on there to ask if there are any more buyable vehicles in the works.

Try reading his number 2 again. Doing what you are advocating is violating Facebook's Terms of Service. He is not willing to do that, neither am I. If I am going to use their service, I need to accept their TOS, the same way I have to accept NCSoft's if I want to post here and play the game.

I'm confused, give up more of your privacy to FB how? I Liked the CoH FB page to get the code, as far as I can see my name doesn't appear on the CoH FB page anywhere. Doing so added CoH to my Interests list and I went into my Edit settings and deleted it. |

We start off a bit late this week due to technical difficulties. Beastyle hears curses, hammering, and a goat from Zwill's cubicle. My guess he is offering a sacrifice to the tech support gods and reading dark magicks from the dreaded Tomes of Service.
Zwill is wearing a plaid Ye Olde Baker Boy this week.
I'm mentioned on air as being the dev chat statistician and Zwill apologies for the record low 1.5 tangents last week.
Zwill asks about if talking about tangents is a tangent. Someone in the background says it counts as on topic.
Zwill wants to talk about what's going on this weekend.
He is still baffled as to why this image is his default.
Steelclaw: Buy Your Used Car at Positron's Used Car Emporium!
Talking about the game-a-thon that Paragon will be doing. Zwill asks us to support him and not TheNet or Positron.
Zwill says they might be Ustreaming a DnD game.
Zwill: "I think he's using it as an excuse to use every miniature he has."
They will be playing DnD 4e.
They're got a goodly portion dedicated to City of Heroes.
If they reach $2000 in donations, we get to pick the song Positron does on Dance Central.
I suggest "Dancing Queen."
Zwill: "Friday, really? I'd stab my eardrums out."
"Can't Touch This, but he has to wear the parachute pants."
TANGENT: Zubaz and 90's fashion
TANGENT: Zwill talks about Tahiti to Avatea
Zwill wishes he could show us a map of CoH log ins, but it contains personal information so he can’t. They can tell brand new players. Two players log in from Taiwan and Tel Aviv, Finland, Lithuania, all for the first time.
Zwill: "Hey, this one kind of looks like it's in North Korea."
Avatea: "It's Kim Jong Il."
Zwill has to bite his tongue about Kim Jong Il.
Zwill: "If I said anything I would be in SO much trouble."
coh_beastyle: He's in his own one-person SG. He's quite ronery.
Samuraiko: now we know who's in Warburg collecting nukes
TANGENT: Zwill's new hat, and all of them being plaid. Zwill shills Kangol hats.
TANGENT: The new Avengers trailer.
Zwill: "I can't imagine anyone they could have gotten to play Tony Stark better than Robert Downey Jr."
He's worried about the guy who is going to play Banner/The Hulk.
This continue for awhile. Talk about Lou Ferrengo doing voice for the Hulk.
Announcement of the COH: Freedom Player Summit, 2011.
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...82#post3931082
There will be more info next week.
Zwill advises to fly into San Jose.
Zwill: "It's 100 percent fan service. Q and A and panels all day long."
coh_beastyle: NOT THAT KIND OF FANSERVICE
Zwill: "No! No! NO! OH MY GOSH NO! NOT THAT KIND OF FAN SERVICE!"
Zwill is redfaced with embarrassment.
TheNetPQA: Ill be dressing up as Desdemona
They are not likely to broadcast on Ustream. They're looking to record the panels and post them later.
Zwill: "Or as Black Pebble likes to call it, the Pummit. *whispers* What is a pummit? Why does he call it a pummit? I don't know!"
The event is only one day. They're looking to do some stuff the night before, maybe.
They will be telling us new things at the summit.
Zwill will not allow ZombieMan to crash at his place.
Panels will overlap, so you will have to pick and choose. Zwill says they'll be art, design, and production and things people want to actually see.
Food will be included.
coh_beastyle: On the menu: souls
Halloween event? Soon™, they're actually doing some final testing today.
Zwill tries to help Solasau with his tech trouble.
Zwill says we can film whatever we like at the summit.
Gemesis: q: Will you ever host a triva event and give away your hats as prizes?
"No! I love my hats! But I have a bunch of old, sweaty, disgusting promotional game baseball caps you guys can have."
Zwill says that for booth babes they already have TheNet as Desdemona, and wants to convince Beastyle to go as Miss Liberty.
Chat wants Zwill to go as Sister Psyche or Swan.
psychoti: Just as long as there is not a Nopantsitron or Stateofundressman....
"No. Never. No. Nein. Not going to happen. Swan? Maybe I could go as Miss Swan."
Zwill does his impression of Miss Swan from Mad TV.
TANGENT: Same actress on Family Guy.
Sexy Jay will not dress up as Sister Psyche either.
Zwill does not know Kung Fu, but does know Tae Kwan Do, Hopkido, and Rasslin'.
I ask what Zwill's Rasslin' finisher is.
Zwill: "Crossface, butcher, with barbed wire."
Zwill demonstrates for the unfortunates who don't know wrestling what one of those is.
TANGENT: Zwill's high school wrestling career.
Zwill does a little happy dance when he realizes that they're done with Praetorian Invasions. They want to hit a server once a month with a Praetorian event. I cannot screencap the dance.
There will be another dev judged costume contest soon.
Chat wants a GIF of the Zwill Happy Dance.
Beastyle wants to put the dance to music on YouTube.
Zwill: "Numa Numa? Really? REALLY?!"
CoHSteelclaw: BEAST: Do a split screen... with the Truffle Shuffle from Goonies on one side and Zwillinger on the other
Hint at Halloween stuff? "Watch the Paragon Market."
Shot from the Halloween trail, starts at level 14. This is the tunnel running from the basement to the graveyard. Minimum of 4 to start.
It is a limited time event.
"I did not buy the fireman helmets. All my characters are ironic and I don't have a concept for it."
Zwill can neither confirm or deny things in the works for the winter event.
milkweasel: Q: When the sig character dies, will the arcs involving them be wiped from the game or rewritten to fight other sigs?
They're changing all the stuff associated with them.
"It's not an insignificant amount of work."
They plan on adding more trials and improving and expanding the LFG system.
"It makes Second Measure cry when people don't use the Team Up Teleporter."
Talk of Free players going to Premium.
There is a fix in the works for SG Base logos. Zwill thinks it's fixed in an internal build.
CHAT INDUCED TANGENT: James Franco
Zwill: "If you don't know what a terrible James Franco movie is, go see Your Highness. You'll understand."
Zwill forgot to jiggle the mouse and we get some video stutter and blue screen.
CHAT INDUCED TANGENT: Composition of Zwill's hat.
Zwill has 10 hats.
Chat wants to see Zwill wearing them all at once in a majestic towering pillar of hats, ala TF2.
coh_beastyle: Tarnishe notte my towering pillar of hats
1:33 CoHDesiBoy: Q: does aquaman count as a real superhero?
1:33 coh_beastyle: He counts as being outrageous, DesiBoy.
1:34 hellkat9940: But is he truly outrageous?
1:34 coh_beastyle: Truly, truly, truly.
Zwill: "Eeeeeeh. I'll leave that up to you guys."
Someone in the background mentions that the New 52 DC Aquaman was pretty good.
VIP in-game customer service is in beta testing right now.
CHAT INDUCED TANGENT: Zwill's New 52 comics that he has.
The facepalm emote will stay exclusive to Facebook.
Zwill is planning on forwarding the confusion over Fireman Helmets being under Hats.
Second Measure stops by and calls Zwill an attention *****.
Zwill shows Second Measure's phone, which has a background of a puppy.
Zwill: "The eyes pierce the soul."
Talk about the barf emotes, devs have them.
Zwill: "We have THREE barf emotes? REALLY?"
Zwill: "What a shock, Colin Brown did the barf and vomit emotes. From the maker of the Rocket Board comes vomit!"
There are more ViDocs planned.
Talk about the cool art in the ViDoc.
ZombieManCoH: that art work should change each month to show an evovling story
"I'll pass that along!"
Zwill: "Basically I'm a paid troll. I post lolcats."
Closing talk about the pummit.
