I've had that before, simply closing and restarting fixed it for me.

Orc&Pie No.53230 There is an orc, and somehow, he got a pie. And you are hungry.

That's not new. It's been happening sporadically for a while.

Im not sure how this patch ended up affecting my wife's AI IRL, but she cooked liver the night of the patch. She knows I hate liver, so I petitioned the devs about it.
Still waiting for a response...

I'll randomly get an incorrect name/password error, even though I'm 100% sure I'm putting in the right password. I'll click over to the name field and type just so I can see what's coming out and, instead of the letters I'm typing, random numbers come up. O.O Tabbing out and back in magically fixes it, though. But, that's been going on since before the patch.

Praetoria's Interrogator Washington is apparently such as scary guy that all the Syndicate goons in his "Speak to Mrs. Swift" mission ran off the second they heard he was on his way. o_0
Everyone but Swift herself, anyway...
She apparently stuck around to see what the big deal was.
But the rest of her gangster pals? Nowhere to be found...
All Washington and Anteros found was a building full of cowering civilians with nothing to say for themselves but "Aiiieeeee!"
It was freaky.

Ran with a Keyes iTrial and there was no obliteration beam in the last stage, everyone on team got 'Avoids Green Stuff" badge with no effort,.... too bad I wasn't on my badger.

Same. You can hit them but they are pretty fragile. Also really wimpy. Scorpion's Surprise is a total waste of prestige, don't bother. I probably should have blown them up to seee if you get exp for it since I know I'll be swapping them out.|

I have to admit it was strange sending out a memo of the day to members... Avoid the vault room. the chain guns WILL attack you! |
On the other hand, the turret-mounted flamethrowers are nasty. Were hitting my /dark for 179 through about 48% resist fire and rarely missed.
Anyone actually get hurt by their defenses? Have any recommendations for guns that do their job should base PvP ever be possible?

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
The mouse cursor is messed up on my laptop. The actual select spot is about an inch of two to the left of the cursor. Need to shove the cursor off the edge of the screen to pick anything near the right side.
had a bizarre one last night whilst running a hero tip mission in PI. I forget the title of the mission, but its the one where you have to destroy the carnie masks and then save Jason and his soul.
Anyway I'm in the offices section just wiping out a group of carnies (No Vanessa DeVores in the goups I might add - running at x4 on my MM), and I hadn't yet destroyed the box of masks, when all of a sudden I get a windows error message pop up (alt-tabbing me) saying that the game detected that I was playing on the QA Server etc etc (forget the actual wording).
So I click the "Okay" button and promptly get zoned out of the mission, where upon the game crashes before I manage to load back into PI.

This, niggling, time wasting stuff, that prevents game immersion, which won't get fixed anytime soon because it's not game-breaking just QOL stuff.

There is always a lot to be thankful for, if you take the time to look. For example, I'm sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt. ~Author Unknown

Or something like that, I guess.
Personally, I'm not logging back into CoH til they fix their latest lolpatch. I have bugged at least one new (to me) bug every time I've played since it went live. Honestly, when I want to beta test things, I log into the beta server...
Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas
Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

My friend aceaer had a costume bug and couldn't change anything when he hit the random costume thing. Not sure if it's just him or an actual bug. I thought about testing it on a new toon. Poor guy :/

I've heard that Posi-clones of toons with newer powersets somehow have access to Tier 9 powers like Overcharge, Chronoshift, etc. I've been hearing about this since waaayyy before last week's patch, so this isn't new.

Running a low level solo Tip mission only to run into three Vanessa Ds together in the first room. Didnt realise it was a bug at first and was annoyed at the developers for designing such a solo unfriendly mission. After many deaths however I managed to defeat them and that gave me a great feeling of accomplishment.
The nerfing of Force Field has been the most annoying change for me on my MM. No more holding down a door and half by myself anymore on a BAF
I can attest to the borked UI happening on at least two of my characters. No rhyme or reason, just random...
Also, what's up with the fog of war lately? I'm finding that I zone back into lowbie zones on higher level characters after an absence, and the fog is totally reset. Not game breaking, just odd.

2 - Are you aware of /wdwsave and /wdwload?
Thanks Raj Yes I am a vip and after posting earlier I saw the in game pop up telling all of us about /wdwsave or /wdwload.
Still just a temp fix. they need to fix things so people don't need to use a slash command. But at least for now we have a way to stop it. I even had the screen switch back on me when I zoned from PI to FF once prior to the / command thing
