    Oh and he want's a costume redesign...he doesn't like his current one apparently... (may have made that up..but he does need a new costume).
    Well he merits a Praetorian makeover, doesn't he?

    The Dwarf and Nova are the only character models in the game that cannot be customized in any way, shape, or form.

    I'm very disappointed.

    It's completely true, God-as-my-witness. But you won't want it, trust me. Remember Scaramanga's third nipple? Want to know where the golden bullet comes from? Hint: it was easier to proliferate a mandatory costume feature than a new power to every powerset.
  3. I also didn't take into account significant digits. But, as a scientist, I know I often have to tailor my results to the mental faculties of my audience.

    Zing!

    Yeah. Unlike "technical reasons," now I know they're completely capable of it, and just refuse to do so. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh....
  5. It's been a good six years. Here's to another six, that get better and better!

    No, I was more thinking about this. Good luck!

    Hawtness. I can confirm that I suffered from the Keyboard Input Lag bug in CB, and that this solved it. I'm pleased to see it in the Knowledge Base. If you are using an ATI card, it is my first recommended troubleshooting step.

This has basically rendered the game unplayable since I cannot move in any useful manner.

    Has anyone seen anything like this before? Know of any solutions?
    What graphics card do you use?

    The number displayed in the CCC that you're looking at is the packaging version not the Catalyst version.
    I mean when I click on driver information in my device manager.

  11. You know, I was too busy claiming merits to see if I had a new slot--thanks for the reminder, I'll go check this out.
  12. Is it even worth trying these out? The last few installs, my drivers never changed from 8.whatever. I have the Radeon 9800, and it just pulls the same driver from the CCC every time. Four different upgrade attempts, I'm tired of trying.

    You're absolutely right, lag is due to your crappy computer.

    Two Questions.

    There aren't too many that give stat boosts, though you might be interested in the Cimeroran one--I think that is +Defense, which might be good for a blaster. Or arena/PvP--whichever gives +Recharge. YMMV. As for me, I tend to go for functionality--WW teleporter, XP bonus, Vanguard Merits, etc.
  15. I just had a sudden small aneurysm looking at that picture, and it wasn't related to the horse.

    Two Questions.

    Fly is the most versatile, and thus the slowest. TP is the fastest, and thus not as useful from an x-y-z perspective. SJ and SS fall between the two, the more x-y-z mobility you sacrifice, the faster the power tends to be.

    Here's a simple test: compare the version numbers. I think you'll be surprised when you look.
  18. We discovered in CB that a similar problem on ATI cards was being caused by a background hotkey puller. I don't know if the nVidia users figured out if what they were experiencing was the same thing, but that's where I would start. Good luck!

    Taking bets now on whether or not it is the game and therefore the entire player-base...or just you.

    How are your video card drivers? Your card? Is it up to snuff? These are important questions before we ask if I17 is broken.

    Totally over-powered. If you ate 20 reds, it would be like you had eaten 21.

    0.25 / .0125 = 20

  24. Before everyone else goes crazy over this, it's not that big a deal:

    Enrage: +25% Damage

    So... .25% * 1.05 = 0.2625%

    In this example, +.01%. Sleep easy.
