Hmm. vv

That looks more like he's the centerpiece of a bowtie. \/

Nope, it's a shrug! vv

When thousands of players left for CO and stayed there cause it's such a good game. vv

Does that mean it's okay for all of us to start new threads about pure respecs and server merging whenever we get bored?

We need copypasta in here. But I'll sum it up for you.

1) Someone posts this thread/idea/concept once a week.

2) Some people like small servers. Getting rid of small servers by merging them is bad.

3) If you don't like your server, move. If you aren't willing to move, then it's not someone else's job to fix the problem.

I've heard a lot of people suggest this, but thinking about it, it makes no sense.

For one, Walk has no recharge so you could run it anytime you wanted, unlike Rest. I for one don't want it to gain a recharge because of a balance mechanic like that.

Two, it doesn't really make sense to gain recovery for walking. Simply because... why don't you get a recov bonus when standing still? Truth is a lot of people would turn on WALK to stand still and gain recovery. It would make even less sense to make them HAVE to walk. So if we're going for logic, it would make more sense to add a passive recovery bonus to players who aren't moving. And I really doubt the devs would do that.

You can always pretend it's a recovery bonus when it detoggles you though!

Yup. Just hoping that bugfix and jumping stuff comes pretty soon.

Forget that! I want...

Short answer: She's a widow.

Long answer: Swift with one level 50 IO is +49.8% run speed, putting her at 21.5 MPH. Mental Training with one level 50 IO is another +49.8% run speed, putting her at 28.6 MPH. Stamina is slotted with Performance Shifter, which gives +5% and puts her at 29.3 MPH. TT:L is slotted with Gaussian, which gives another +5% for a total of 30 MPH.

Granted, I could swap Swift out for Hurdle and be at 22 MPH. But the thing is, I LIKE her running so fast to get around and inside missions. It's just annoying for RP purposes.

What server you on? If Virtue I'll give you 5m.

And welcome to City of Heroes!

Most of that stuff is so-so. But...

I'm against deleting stuff, even if it's not popular. If the epic fiasco showed us anything it's that the cottage rule exists for a reason. Even if datamining shows that only 5% of Blasters bother to take X power, deleting is a bad idea. Especially when you start doing that to the three dozen powers that datamining showed aren't that popular. I'd rather see a redesign/revamp/upgrade to lame zones than just flat out deleting them. They don't hurt anything to keep existing, and even if I don't like them myself, I recognize other people's right to like them.

The one that I really, really disagree with is the stores idea. Not only does the BM/WW system work just fine and allows people to set prices how they want and make everyone happy, but I've played Ragnarok Online. I know how messy and irritating personal stores are. It's also way harder to find what you want. It's extremely disorganized and there's no real advantage to changing to such a system.

One of my characters has a base speed of 30 MPH. It's really annoying trying to position her to sit down and stuff.

Doesn't seem likely. BABs commented that they're going to allow jumping while walking in the next patch. Leads me to believe they'll want to test it. Plus they still have to fix the global slow reducing walk speed. My guess is we'll get walking on live next Tuesday at the earliest.

They could always surprise us and throw it live tomorrow though, and fix bugs and add jumping later.

As an RP addition, it probably won't see a whole lot of us in places like Atlas Park outside of the burst of interested people for the first couple weeks.

However, unlike fly poses, you move slow while using it and can use it in confined spaces and, shock, let other people see you using it. As such, the places where it'll see most use will probably be places like Pocket D, bases, costume contests, and any other sort of social gathering type place where people are just hanging out and talking rather than shooting badguys with flamethrowers.

I will forever be jealous of GW's dance emotes. Ours are like half-second clips repeated which are good for raves but pretty much nothing else. I so want to do riverdance and thriller in CoH.

I'm too lazy to go look up the source, but someone did say at HeroCon that they're doing Elec Control. No ETA right now though, so we don't know if that means GR, i17, i18, or i48

Yes, this. I crash out when accessing the market after playing for at least 45-60 minutes. Also, accessing SG window, training, and switching toons. If I do those things when I just log in, it's no issue. I have to play for a while first. I'll also crash just doing normal stuff after playing for over two hours.

For the record, I have 3 GB RAM.

You just answered your own question, then questioned the validity of it.

Since I know a lot of RPers, most of the people I know can't wait for it to hit live and use it.

Good plan, and like I said I let mine vary when necessary/possible. But my basic plan works nearly all the time, including PUGs with people I don't know. I know with VGmates that we can put together a good team with just about anything, but I don't have that same guarantee with PUGs, so I make sure I have enough support toons that it will probably work.

Not everyone plays for "content" or even defines "content" the same way. And I don't think there are any animations that could be added that would qualify as content anyway. So if animators (BABs) have free time and are fooling around, they can either do things like this, make new emotes or alternate attacks for power customization (which aren't content), or twiddle their thumbs. Which do you prefer?
