What will I do when CoX dies completely?

As long as there are good storys to tell about Paragon City the game will have life in it.

There is finally, one other MMO that has the storytelling ability that this one has.

However a bunch of drunking half dead monkeys appear to be doing the coding for that MMO, so it may end up dead before it's even had a chance to catch on.

City of Heroes will always have a big place in my heart. It's nowhere near the first MMO I've played, but it has been the best.

You can teach yourself how to make a small avatar. Or take up male modeling (see 1:45).

Not going to mention ability lag here. *Shudders*

CoH is definitely one of thebest I have played. It really grows on you as you play.

August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.
This is houtex, aka Mike, signing off the forums. G'night all. - 10/26/2012
Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012

Play World Of Heroes when it launches.

Sit here smugly while typing in all-caps messages on the soon-to-be-shut-down forums such edifying messages as "SEE? I TOLD YOU SO!"

Oh wait, that's not me, that would be the usual contingent of doom-sayers. But you just wait and see. Then I'll be able to say I told you so!

I wish NCSoft would put in the investment dosh to make a CoH2.

Take what's good from CoH (invention system/incarnate systems in particular) and mix in some of the cool things DCUO brought around (SUPER SPEEEEEEED)

A little premature to be talking about the end no? I foresee Coh having a long stay. They already have tons of things planned and we have a very dedicated development and community management team.

But thats just me, I don't wanna talk about the end, I wanna talk about whats next up on Tuesday

Either way I have been here since the beginning and I'll be here until they shut the doors. Nuff said.

Well I sure won't be going outside. Too bright out there.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I'm glad at least one person got my point.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

In short, life is too damn short to go borrowing trouble.
Currently the game and Paragon have given us zero indication that they're going to be shuttering the service any time in the near future. Indeed, the game is ever-expanding.

Currently they're the 800 pound gorilla of the Superhero MMO market. Every other game in the genre is compared to CoH. A nearly 8 year old game. And in many categories CoH trounces even brand new stuff QUITE handily.

And with other MMOs like Evercrack coming up on Year 14, it shows that if a game can maintan a reasonable level of profitability, it can go on more or less indefinitely.
Lol!

If CoX shuts down, we know the porn industry is responsible. If this comes to pass, I will spend the rest of my days working to undermine this industry. If that doesn't satisfy me, I'll shut down WoW.

Man I really liked Tabula Rasa... wish it wouldn't have shut down.

if CoH ever shuts down I hope to be able to purchase the rights to my character(s)... now THAT would be great to me.

I wonder if we would be able to use our old characters in some way in CoH2...


 

Posted

I would have said that Lineage was also closing down, but it is only for the US servers.

I remember the closing event of Tabula Rasa...

GM's remote killing me (happened during normal play sometimes), teleporting me to their locations etc etc

Oh and lots and lots of lag and vodka drinking!

I still listen to the soundtrack every now and then and get all teary eyed (the music from the last zone event was *stunning*

*wipes a tear away from the corner of his eye*

I just have to keep on remembering to back up my TR hard drive... i still have the last patched client, installer and PTS installer on it >.<

If it gets shut down for good, I'm gone for good. If there are servers somewhere, somehow, I'll be on them. Otherwise, I'll see y'all another time.
