    Zoom is borked and not just on the head.

    (Also posted elsewhere.)

    Max # of Arcs

    POST-ACTION

    You can purchase FIVE

    Initial 3 plus 5 purchased, give you the total of 8 (EIGHT)

    The only way to use more slots is to either Unpublish an Arc or get one Upgraded to a Devs Choice,
    as these would free the slot that the Arc was holding.

    It looked slightly darker ingame, but it's fixable

    Idea is to give them something to work from...
    The colors used would be part of any tweaking.

    (Try the costume yourself, you have the costume file information...
    I however have no control over the levels of ingame lighting.)

    Shame those shoes have clunky legs to go with them.
    You can actually make out when on the upper shin the 2 parts meet as there is a major jagged edge and difference in skin tone.

    No one else noticed the City Hall interior is still single story with domed ceiling and old tech copy reflection of said room and dome, whereas the exterior and loading screens now show it to be a 2 story building?

    My take on Azuria...

    Copy:


    Improved:



    Sleeveless Casual Jacket and Office Belt, otherwise identical to the Clone.

    Good call.

    Regarding 'Original', take a look at power customization on live sometime.
    Unless locked due to being a weapon based set (Or Kheld, etc.)

    The options are 'Original', 'Bright', 'Dark', 'Color Tintable', 'Minimal FX' or a choice of alternate animation/vfx.

    The top listing is to change the whole set's options, the lower under each selected power it to allow changes on a per power level.

    Note that on the current live version, the upper option just selects the options for the rest of the set with no color selection available, you have to set a per power color and copy to set or all powers.

    Quick note, you can 4 slot stamina with 3 end mod io's and a perf shifter +end

    This ED caps stamina but also adds the perf global +end proc bonus.
    (And as it is a proc it is unaffected by ED so you still gain the additional end bonus.)

    We know, its been borked since it was added to the test server, let alone when it went live.

    (That is from the 1st of June 2011 for those who prefer a proper date format.)

    There are also various other threads from the test server pages reporting the same issues.

    No Prolif Protest

    POST-ACTION

    All they said was more proliferation coming post i21 and for i21 they were not doing any sets that needed new animations...

    Whilst complaining, please be aware there is a new zone (First Ward), new powersets (Time Manipulation etc.), a wrecked galaxy/new tutorial, 2 revamped zones atlas/mercy, the original galaxy and hero/villain tutorials moving to oro, oro entrance level getting lowered, 2 additional costume sets, the new paragon points and paragon rewards systems, etc. all going in for i21.

    Counting GR's 6 zones as an expansion, this is practically (half) an expansion...
    Remember that GR's Incarnate stuff went in later than planned, I think this is what is happening this time for Dominators.

    But that usually means that any left out will be top of the list for the next proliferation.

    Oh and the i21 list above doesn't list everything just the known changes at this time.

    Just my 2 inf.

    Patch notes will be available in the Patch Notes section of the City of Heroes website as soon as possible after this downtime.

    Please note that there won’t be a Thursday maintenance, since we will be carrying out a maintenance with this Wednesday’s publish.

    We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience!
    Note:
    Expected Finish Time: 9:00 a.m. PDT / 12:00 p.m. EDT / 5:00 p.m. BST / 18:00 CEST

    I would therefore assume the server is patched and set for internal QA testing at this time.

    My post on this from elsewhere:

    And you have a Freeform custom character.

    NB:
    With the earlier pick anything double primary/double secondary it was fun to make an AR/Merc's MM, 12 attacks, 6 pets, 2 pet upgrades and a gimped Serum.

    It made a great AE mission SuperSoldier and the Merc Medic was kept busy.

    Sadly this AE option is nerfed now (Forced 1 primary, 1 secondary.), but Imho MM's should also have ranged attacks as secondary powersets.

    This ranged secondary would up their damage output and surviveability but would offer them no defense or resistance to incoming damage.
    And an Arcanaville response to it...

    Regarding the mispurchase, contact support.
  24. Coolio
    Best tip is not to use it just because it goes active,
    Save it for a boss or low endurance situation...
    Then it will give you a full endurance bar and your domination level holds/immobs.
  25. Coolio
    2x12 more than the 36 and you'd have 60/server max.

    And I'll also put this out there...
    If you fill up the test server slots, I did this with the old EU test server (all 36)
    And then copy more characters they go into the 37+ slot buffer, and you will see one of the later copies occasionally auto swapping out with an existing character, but even if they are not selectable at the time, when it swaps back in all inf/stats etc are still there, so it must be stored in an empty offscreen slot.

    This means all they have to do in code is swap the 36 cap to 48, 60, etc. the only other issue is the storage space to store all these extra characters.

    Apart from storage this is pretty low hanging fruit for a future update.

    Edit:
    The storage must of been upgraded to account for all the Freems and Preems coming in with CoH:Freedom
    and I'm not saying these extra slots should start unlocked either, even locked we would have room to expand.
