Quote:Problem there is a fresh game install will involve substantial new downloads, something I don't want to do on a capped account.Originally Posted by Back_Blast
It's a distinct possibility. Try a fresh game install and see if that doesn't help.
Anyone know what files HAVE to be copied over? -
I have just bought a new machine and everything runs beautifully. However I have run into an error with my keyboard.
I noticed this when some of my binds didn't work as expected. When I went into keymapping I found some of the special character keys weren't being recognised and others weren't returning the right character.
Specifically when trying to enter [ as a keybind I get nothing
When trying to enter ] in I get [ and # gives me ]
\ also doesn't work and I didn't find a key that will give me it or #
I'm on a HP Pavillion Elite with Win 7 set to UK english with a UK english keyboard. When I use the game chat all the keys react as expected, it's only with relation to binding they seem borked.
The keyboard is an HP wireless one that came with the machine.
edit: I just had a thought, I copied the game files across from another machine with a US keyboard, is that likely to have had an effect? -
Quote:Actually, the 15 second cap is a pain and very easy to invoke. If you are emailing to yourself all you have to hit is reply and drop in the attachment. When you are clearing recipies or salvage it's very quick.Originally Posted by Shadow Ravenwolf
Is it that the servers can only handle so much email traffic? We have a limit of 15 seconds between emails. Realistically, you're not going to ever send an email every 15 seconds. Even if you are sending a few hundred emails, the fastest I can see would be 20 seconds. That's 5 seconds from the time you click new, fill in the info, attach the item, and click send and the 15 second cool down. Looking at my example above, 300 emails to get the salvages sent would still take me 100 straight minutes of cranking out emails.

Quote:Having lived here for 3 years now I'd argue thats not the case. Sure, you don't chat to the weirdo next to you on the train, but I wouldn't do that anywhere. Otherwise I've found London to be a pretty friendly place.Originally Posted by Carnifax_NA
London? The most unfriendly city in Europe? Eew.*
(It's true. London is weird. No-one talks to each other, sorta like WoW but with slightly fewer people wanting to duel you) -

Will you next tell me all the NPCs don't wear berets on Vigilance?
Oh no, they do. And they all have stripped tops and blue jeans. Plus the statue of Atlas has been replaced with the Eiffel tower.

Each set will have a catagory in the description. It's not the buffs the individual IO's grants that set the restriction, but the set catagory. If you got one Titanium Coating: Resistance you should be able to slot the rest of the set in there too, but don't bother slotting any that won't affect the power.

All of the game's major AV's just plain disappear into a portal to another dimension. All that is left behind is a single note, hastily scrawled:

I'd like to see the War Walls torn down and the city returned to normal.

Quote:Wiat... you're saying that because the decided to attach this method to email, allowing you to send items etc to other people as well as yourself, rather than recoding the vault to first allow inf, recipies and enhancements to be stored in it, then recoding it to allow it to be accessed by everyone, the devs are in cahoots with a RMT site? RiiiiigggghhhhtttOriginally Posted by idea123
I can only assume that the reason why the devs didn't just make 20 special slots in the vault available to everyone in the global is because they support Gargorian.com or whatever their irritating name is. At least you don't have to give your account info to them to buy infl any more. The devs must be getting a cut in the real-money profits.
Also, the fact that you still cannot invite your offline alts into your own SG (along with the non-vault option above) shows they don't care about the loner who doesn't involve himself in the community.
And have you considered that offline SG invites via email or otherwise might be problematic and not as easy to code? -

The devs should decide what the fair value is. The player market, if there must be such a horrid thing and it seems that there must, should be limited to reflect that value within a tolerance. Because no one should:
But with the player market the seller decides what he thinks is a fair price for the item based on the information available to him (last 5, bidders/sellers, rarity of the item, time of the month, colour of his underwear) and the buyer also decides what he thinks is a fair price to pay for said item based on the same info above (except for the colour of the sellers underwear obviously) and also based on how badly he wants it (NAO variable) and if the 2 prices are compatible everybody is happy. I fail to see how it's not fair. -
Welcome home. I can attest to the friendliness of the EU side. I can also recomment New Camelot as I have teamed with them a few times and had a blast.
Feel free to look me up in game @Dave N Smith, on most weeknights and always happy to team. Have a small SG, only 4 very active members and a few others if you want to join in. -
I need to check my other toons to see if this is true across the rest of my account, but my main badger definetly had items in WW before I17 went live and when I dropped in for the first time today to check on stuff and buy some salvage there was nothing in there.
I know there were some issues, so am wondering if I'm the only one this has happend to? I'm not to worried, it wasn't a huge amount, but am a little dissapointed that this happened. -

I was at a Virtue Red side raid the other night, and we couldn't get past the first bloom. the Greens would not go down. When I logged back in last night there were TWO sets of greens around Hami.
Will try and find the quote. -
Quote:Yeah, I had seen this somewhere, and am happy to do that. But next month or whenever I'll have to download GR which is likely to be huge too. And I'm lucky I have another machine with it on. If I had a crash and had to reinstall? I know I should back up etc, but I like disks! I'd rather install from a disk than down load GR.Originally Posted by Bindweed
I don't think you need to download it all over again (it's been a few months since I migrated to a newer PC, so if I'm wrong there are smarter people here to say so), iirc all you need to do is copy your COH folder. If you have a portable hdd, a cd/dvd writer, or a memory stick with enough capacity, its a simple drag and drop. When you run the updater on your new machine, the game will pick up as normal.
So, if I'm right and that is the case, one way to get around not having the up-to-date game on disk is to periodically back up your game folder onto dvd or something - maybe after there's been a big download,or whenever's suitable. -
Quote:I'm on Union, and logged on a toon last night, every slot except the first was changed to default for Power Customisation. Costumes were fine.Originally Posted by Kosmos
I'm wondering if perhaps this is only affecting some, or just one, server. I'm on Guardian, and recognize a couple of the others posting as being here too. Unfortunately, I can't swear that I customized anyone on other servers, so I can't test to see if they're affected too.
On my lowbie everything was fine, only one slot and it was still customised. -
Quote:Done and done.Originally Posted by Sardan
Don't forget to /bug it in game folks. I've seen many instances of issues that were well known to players that completely escaped dev attention for months because they frequently get too busy to monitor the forums. But a substantial number of bug reports will get noticed!

Quote:Unfortunatly the box will have a code in it for CoX NA, not EU. We would get the box, but not be able to apply it to our account so still have to pay for GR too. While this would solve the problem of not having updated disks (my personal concern. Last night alone I had a 3gb download! I need to install it on a new machine, I'd hate to think of the size of that download.) it's a very expensive way to go about it.Originally Posted by NobleFox
I'm sure if you send an email to NCSoft asking nicely if you can purchase a box and have it shipped overseas they will be happy to comply. It's a LOT better then demanding they post a huge loss or "lose your business". Your $15 a month is not going to pay for shipping and distribution of a product that has (if I understood what I read in a trade mag about a year ago about CoH in Europe), historically speaking, has _never_ made a profit in your market?

Surprisingly, it is actually difficult to have players defeated that many times and actually succeed on a Task Force in a respectable amount of time.
Give it a try. Run a Task Force or any mission with a few friends. Count how many defeats you get and how long you played. Task Forces allow you to set Defeat and Time limits which record the time and deaths for you automatically. -

Just double checked. It is still at 999,999,999.00 so max as email is 19,999,999,990.00 Plus 20 items which if it is the glad proc, could top out at over 5 billion an email.

What I want to know is why have 50 people voted on this?!

Quote:Is that possible? Last I heard there was a limit of 100,000 so that max available as emails was 2bill. Bit this may have changed.Originally Posted by Daemodand
The game isn't over until you have every market slot taken up with a 2 billion placeholder bid. After Issue 17, it's not over until you have every market slot taken up with a 2 billion placeholder bid and all 20 of your emails with 2 billion inf attachments.

Quote:I find the aim/BU-snipe a very good opening combo to negate LT's or Bosses in a mob. I generally use one on that, then the other with boost range (I have NRGOriginally Posted by Frosticus
Aim and bu? yes, must haves
The snipe? not so much. Just use will dom+tk blast on a problem foe. It will do more damage and if it doesn't kill it will take it out of the fight for a bit. Then you still have some buff time to use other attacks. The snipe eats up too much time for not very much damage compared to what you can do in the same time frame.

Please do. I've just rolled one, but I have no idea about builds or what I should be doing. I would find this very helpful.
