Still cant copy our characters over though
Meanwhile they have set Beta to give a level 50 boost to new characters. -
Well 'if' the contact was 'Null the Gull' then there is no reason they couldn't place him/her/it or one of it's counterparts on various maps...
Somewhere like: Atlas Park Town hall roof, Top of Atlas' globe, On Atlas' Heel, On top of buildings (With fire exit ladders), Top of Kings row Paragon Coin (Behind Blue Steel), etc.
You get the idea, standard contacts tend to be stood around, they ought to have some seated and some like Null sitting almost anywhere.
And I think the reason it would be an NON callable contact is to prevent players toggling it as rapidly as the options version would allow.
If you set it and later decide to change it you have to go find the/another NPC.
These NPC's would mean AE farmers would have to leave the AE building to change settings.
(Unless they fixed the AE lift to give you the option of going to the Lobby/Hospital/Main Floor/Vendor/Roof, and put an NPC like 'Null' there, or even on one of the Main AE Floor outside ledges.) -

So it won't solve it Coolio?
I don't yet know what effect it will have on NCSoft games other than CoH...
As they want us on the Beta Server to help test the new iTrial, it should be on their FIX list, alongside the Character Copy Tool! -

Thanks for all the answers to the last few posts. Good stuff to know.
Coolio, that's an interesting idea and would totally work. I bet Tunnel Rat could come up with effects within just a couple of days, and the powers team would be able to just steal tech from other sets easily.
Got a weird feeling though that it would have knockback in some of the powers, which most hate, but very interesting idea, especially with the summon animations for a blaster.
For a Blaster, The ranged attacks that might KB set to actually do KD, and only the low damage blaster melee attack(s) would KB.
Used as an I'm a squishy get outta my face NAO!
But I'm sure you get the idea. -

The reason Corruptors are unlikely to get Empathy now, even with Villain Defenders, is that -every- Corruptor support sets gets debuffs. It goes with the theme of the Archetype. Empathy doesn't have any so it doesn't exactly "fit." Same reason it doesn't get Forcefield. All buffs/Control/Soft Control. No Debuffs.
(I for one personally rallied for villain empathy way back when, debuffs or not. Likewise, as I've mentioned many times in proliferation threads before, Forcefield is offensive enough in nature that it would still work for them in my opinion.)
Now I would like to see a Kinetic Blast/Assault, aka a ranged version of Kinetic Melee, especially as this would potentially use the same cast animations and would thematically work alongside /Kinetics.Quote:Originally Posted by Paragon WikiCorruptors

IIRC I was there for quite a while, midnight thru 3:20 am (BST UK Time)
Saw:
9 Atlas Park's
15 Pocket D's
A Tutorial Glitch, dumped me into a full Atlas Park 1 rather than a less busy one, was ok for me as a semi vet, but this will need fixing for new players.
Lag, based on my normal game settings:
Movement: Reasonable
Powers: Intermittent
Collision Detection: Intermittent
Blueside Tram/Train: 2 Minute delay to board the train (From a FULL Atlas Park 1)
I'm using an old P4 XP PC with 3GB Ram and Sapphire 4650 HD AGP 1GB graphics card.
And yes my normal game settings are Maximum Detail and High Ultramode.
(Wanted a load lag comparison to normal under the same settings
)

Quote:Thanks to 4000+ who made it the badge is server wide for a weekOriginally Posted by Johnstone
Just wanted to pop in and say thanks to those who were able to make it out to the event. I was catching up on sleep thanks to a busy week and missed it. Thanks again, all.
And you only need it on 1 character per account as it is an account wide badge, 1 gets it the whole account gets it
As of this post they were still hopping thru the 15+ pocket D's giving out steampunk pack codes and yellow titles. -

No, sadly
My problem is that whenever the download is "done", it never finishes and starts installing. It simply reverts to 0% and starts downloading all over again endlessly. It just never complets lol even after a few times of reaching 100% download. -

For Windows PC's it's even easier to install the Main (NA) Test server...
Start -> Run
For 32 bit: "C:\Program Files\NCsoft\Launcher\NCLauncher.exe" /LaunchGame=CohTest
For 64 bit: "C:\Program Files (x86)\NCsoft\Launcher\NCLauncher.exe" /LaunchGame=CohTest
And for the (NA) Beta Server replace CohTest with CohBeta
These will start the NCLauncher with the (NA) Test server selected for install, then just click "Install Now" if you need to.
Oh and if you already had NA/EU test server listed they are now identical so either will access test. -
Quick FYI, Both EUCoHTest and CoHTest are now identical.
I would hope that Paragon Studios would nudge NCSoft to tweak the launcher files to consider them identical listings.
By dropping the US/EU and merging them into a single listing.
(EUCoH and CoH could also get the same treatment in the launcher.) -
The short sleeve options on the jackets w/sleeves don't take into account the chest options for the upper arms and default to skin.
IMO all jackets should be combined into one category, giving an additional sleeve option of none and all the shoulder pieces from the sleeveless versions.
The same for robes/robes w/sleeves.
For an example of correct long/short/no sleeves have a look at the trenchcoat stand alone jacket with any body type (White metallic for example) and choose the different sleeve options, compared with the standard jackets w/sleeves official and the new steampunk short lacy sleeves, showing skin even if the chest is as in my suggested example above white metallic. (AKA polished chrome) -
Quote:Well once the characters on the former EU servers are able to transfer over, I'd take your question as a given.Originally Posted by Rangle M. Down
Should we also infer that NA players who have characters on the former EU servers will also be able to transfer those toons to test as well?
Still waiting on the NA/EU server status info to be combined TBH... -
Actually if you check there are several pieces as well as the new ones that need dual color fixing, both of the ladies wedding pack tops, crab SoA gloves (Including bladed).
Others such as monsterous feet need to include several pattern options that are available for standard feet alongside the skin/hairy/reptile/fur options we currently have. -
DEVS:
It's a shame you can't restore the old EU Test server characters to both the (New/Former NA) Test server and the Beta server... -
For Windows PC's it's even easier to install the Main (NA) Test server...

The Case of the Missing Cereal
“Most of our cubes come with a cupboard. My particular cupboard houses several boxes of cereal, some snacks, etc. – just in case we have a global emergency, I have food for the entire studio. So I went to grab some cereal for breakfast and pulled out the first box (I had four) and it was empty. I kind of did a mental, ‘Nice going, Mel. Can’t be bothered to throw away your cereal box?’ and then picked up the next box. I may be lazy, but I’m not THAT lazy.
Someone had poured out all of the cereal and put the box back (empty bag inside). Then I grabbed the next box. And the next. All gone. To this day, no one will fess up to it. I’ve accused both Second Measure and Positron, but neither will cop to it. Some have tossed Television in as a possible suspect, but he hasn’t admitted anything. The case remains unsolved. I had to go out and buy some more boxes of cereal.”
The YouTube Video
“This was utterly ridiculous, only because it’s been caught on tape forever and ever. I was sitting in the Art Department going over some changes to the environment of Shadow Shard (or maybe it’s Eden). I’m in the middle of a biiiiig stretch when I feel a blast of air and I turn my head. Right then, another artist uses one of those blow horns you use at a hockey game in my face and I’m caught on tape forever making this horrendously ridiculous terrified face (in slow-mo no less) for ever. And ever. I was so scared it was either pee my pants or start laughing. My family still laughs at me when they watch it.”

Lots of good ideas here. /signed
A few additions:
4. SG/VG logos.
I'd like a "No emblem" option.
7. AFK and Autoreply.
I'd like a "busy" message in addition to afk. Nothng more annoying than getting a tell in the middle of a respec.
11. Group Fly
I'd like an "opt out of group fly" option in game settings. I've seen people use this to annoy group mates - nothing you can do about if you're not the team lead.
4a and 11b have been added and credited to you.
As for 7 that would be the 7b2 /Reply suggestion I made, My example lists it for Task/Strike Forces but it could be used for Respec's and so on...
Glad you like them tho. -
Well hopefully when the pack goes live or shortly after they will consider tweaking the other existing backpack type items into costume ones...
For example: (As colorable animating costume pieces like the rocket boots.)
1. Minibooster Jetpack
2. Raptor Pack
3. Zero G Pack
And other items such as the Resistance Glowing Backpiece.
It should allow for Military backpacks and so on in future... -
Is there any new items in the back slot other than capes and wings?
And it is on the (Gah... NA) test server after all, for final tweaks
