    Broad Sword/Regen really isn't what it used to be. Instant healing not a toggle anymore is scary.
    I also found out they changed how giant monsters work when I tried to solo Lusca, that didn't end well.

    You mean...you'd wade in like a lunatic and die...isn't that what happened before?

    Haha!

    Kidding mate, always remember the first time you solo'd Lusca. Kept trying to emulate you with Capt...but to very disasterous consequences! :P

    Lets hope I'm back in game in time to at least help you ding 50!

    We are Two!

    Ahh the lovely Femmes!

    Happy Birthday to you and hope you live on for even more!

  3. Cheers for that MaX, I really should keep a bit clued up on things on CoX.

    Good to see Femme Fatales celebrating their 2nd Birthday on CoX! I think we're slightly older by a few days as Guild of Extreme Heroes was created around the time I activated my forum account.

    On other news, I received an email from Ekallo and saying he's returned to the game. Lets hope he gets 50 this time around! Also if you're reading this mate, sned either Blizzaria, MaXimillion or Cynic (SchrodingersCat) about getting an invite back to the GoEH. Would love you to put your toon back into GoEH (since we removed any unused non-lvl50 toons from the SG).
  4. Aww nuts, how did I miss this?!

    Very generous of you guys for offering so much for the prizes. Big thumbs up to the both of you.

    Guess I'll have to keep my eyes open more on this section in future!

    If I get time tonight, will do a sketch just for the hell of it.

    Good luck to the other entrants, some very nice work indeed

    Storm?! What storm? What've I missed? I've still got to download that patch :/

    There was a glitch with the Global Chat server following the patch. The server was taken down and rebooted (those of you in-game at the time should have seen a red 'admin' message about this), which resolved the issue.

    Unfortunately, it won't have returned any lost channels - you'll need to rejoin and/or recreate them.

    Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

  7. Just read this on the "Technical Issues & Bugs" ...

    http://uk.boards.cityofheroes.com/showfl...;gonew=1#UNREAD

    Says some others have had theirs deleted! o.O
  8. Our channels disappeared?

    Haven't been on since last weekend, so unfortunately can't answer that. That is a strange one. Either someone's accidently removed you when you were on or may have been some glitch on the game. Other than that haven't got the foggiest. :/

    OR...everyone's quit the channel! :'( ...its unlikely though, last was on there was quite a few people on it at the time.
  9. How annoying,

    After anticipating Vista's release, now that I have it I can't get on to CoX!

    Upgraded my RAM to 2Gb, however my graphics card is a measly GeForce PCX5300 (basically my onboard graphics card that came with the motherboard I bought 3 years ago)!! Can't afford to upgrade my graphics card until the end of the month (pay day), so looks like I won't be on the game for the rest of the month!

    Anyone out there able to provide graphics card recommendations for the £50 - £125 price range? Basically want powerful, yet uber cheap!
  10. well done on your 2nd 50 fella

  11. Double Xp Weekend?!

    Great first time I hear about it and its already almost time for bed! Not had much luck getting in game in the past couple weeks. Still working away and only get home for weekends. To make things even more tedious I'm homeless whilst flat getting done up! Pah!

    So living like a nomad...sniff...oh well!

    Back in game very temporarily...but looks like I'll be away for a further fortnight due to work.

    Keep plugging away guys...almost enough for a plot upgrade! Gonna try get as much prestige whilst still here...not gonna sleep me thinks *starts to doze off* well, i'll try to stay up!

    See any hardcore gamers ingame now!

    Capt
  12. Although a bit late, Happy New Year

    Haven't been able to get in game for a while as I've temporarily moved whilst my flat is getting its walls and done. So living at mate's house and she hasn't got broadband! Garrgh! It also means I can't go on Xbox Live either for those wanting to "try" kick my arsse on a game.

    Off to London village working for a fortnight next Monday, so won't be in game for a further few weeks again.

    Anywho hope you're all enjoying the game and thanks to all those working to get prestige for the sg...

    Also, if either of the other leaders (yup that's u Blizz, MaX and Schro ) could pay the SG base upkeep soon..think it needs doing. :P

    Catch ya all when I get back...hopefully soon.

    Capt.
  13. Woot for all the loot I got this year!

    Finally got my Xbox 360...and also using my 1month free Xbox live card!

    Under the name "melv1980"...so anyone brave enough to challenge me on Gears of War...bring it on baby!!!

    Capt
  14. As I'm not here for the next couple of days, would just like to say Merry Christmas to all GoEH'ers!

    Hope that Santa gives you all you wished for this Christmas...of course that would only happen if you've been good this year!

    Christmas hugs n' lovin'...

    Captain Solaris
  15. Aye, been busy busy ^^

    Heard you went to the Tenacious D gig in Brum...went to the Manchester gig last Tues...was sa-weet! Knackered next day as was working 9am after I got back up north at 7am, knew it was a bad idea staying out drinking after!

    Best times for me are weekends now...up until the new year anywho. Will still be knocking about for sure.

    ^__^

    Hami once more!

    Aye...altho I got a measly Dmg/Range, you can never complain on getting another Hami-O...cheers for organising it.

    Orf Again

    Good Riddance! Hehe ^o^

    Its always sad to see another relic such as ourselves pass away from the game.

    I've had a lot of good memories teaming with your numerous alts...however i won't say goodbye, cos i know you'll be back...they always do come back!

    Capt
  18. Hey ho ho ho!

    Sorry for not being around as much lately. Been abusing my work's double pay overtime in time for Xmas pay day, so working very early to late at night!

    Just like to thank all the new heroes for earning prestige for the SG. Won't be long now before we can upgrade the base plot for something bigger. Those requiring inf, just send me a global tell and will get back to you as soon as possible.

    Those earning prestige and still on "Initiate" send me a tell so can promote you to "Warrior" so you can access the base and items.

    Been in talks with other SGs and we're considering on organising an event in Recluse Victory. Unfortunately its for lvl40+ heroes, but I'm sure we may organising something else also.

    Regards
    Capt. Solaris
  19. Pah!...i'm sure i'm getting an xbox off the missus, but thing is i wanna play on it NOW!

    ...And Capt, do you mean Gears of War `Emergance Day`? Because after seeing the trailer i went and got a 12 month live card, it frickin rawked.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Umm...yes, so it is ^^ ...just got used to those teaser adverts all the time! bleh
  21. Good to hear mate. Can relate with you there...too many distractions...and especially after playing emergency day on my mate's 360, there'll be a new distraction I'll be looking forward to next month. Makes me wish X-mas was here right now!
  22. i'm coming in after you ^^

    think best alt to join you will be krysalis with her kinetics buffage ^^
  23. What a great time for my account to expire and be called away for a conference over the weekend!

    Well its back up and running and now I've been able to write in the forums again! WOOT

    Don't think the sewer thing is gonna happen this weekend

    On a more joyous note...

    Happy Birthday BLIZZARIA!

    Would like to do the Sewer Trial. From that list its the only one I've never done.

    If that's alright with everyone else at least. Katie Hannon drives me nuts

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Likewise...Sewers for me...Hannon's TF I've done countlesss times recently with other alts. Have "Ten Times the Victor" with Capt, but my isp died before I was able to finish the TF X/ ...bleh!
  25. I'll wait till Thurs before posting. As I'd generally like to start for about 12noon'ish.

    If we could get the sewer trial, that'd be great. Think Capt has the final shard TF (defeating the Mad Lanaruu), but would be nice to get for Earth or Gabe as its quite a fun TF to do. However if starting at 2pm, it maybe a tight squeeze for Blizz to finish it off.

    so the 3 most likely Trial/TF we can do that day are...

    [i]Abandoned Sewer Trial (2-3hours completion)
    Final Shadow Shard TF (3-4hours completion)
    Katie Hannon TF (2-3hours completion)
    Moonfire TF (3-4hours completion)[i]
