    Where.
  2. Zwill, this renewed effort at community outreach is very nice.
  3. Tokyo always felt like a second home to me. I am just overwhelmed by the scale of devastation, and the tragedy facing such a warm and generous people. All my family members have checked in so far, but one of my special CoX friends up in Sapporo still remains unaccounted for.

    I have nothing but affection and compassion for everyone affected by this epic tragedy.
  4. I would also like to apologize for last night.

    Does that involve reading anything?
  6. Probably shouldn't mention that I never had any limit on the number of attempts I made to guess the passwords and capcha information. Though I will say it was waaaaay more than five. Possible in excess of ten.
  7. Well, I can't access my account. The questions I got were: "What town were you born in?" and "What street did you grow up on?"

    So I'm pretty sure that I'm right, and PlayNC is really, really wrong.


    EDIT: Oooooooookay. I just typed something in randomly, and my account is now verified. I think I'm scared.
  8. Thanks for the advice--I'm always of the opinion that jumping right in and getting something done, vs. waiting, is the better decision to make. Here we go!

    It literally makes the mission impossible to complete.
    I can back this up. I ended up giving up, waiting a few days, and dropping the mission.
  10. This is awesome, I will have to check this out and see if I recognize anyone. :3

    Also, if there isn't a big pink bunny in there, that could be a nice add.

    Ouch, zero style points!
  12. Abbadon, there are no bad servers.

    Only opinionated posters.

    My money is on someone pulling the short straw during the last jean's day lunch. :/

    Separate issue: I haven't touched my PlayNC login stuff yet, for fear of breaking something/losing access to the game. Should I? Should I just let it go?

If I can get these ansered I'll be able to decide weather or not to shoot over to Gamestop to get this game right when they open (lol one of the benefits of being nocturnal).
    Haha, and you're still waiting for a "stfu-gtfo noob" post, right? So what forum are you on? What ATs have you tried out? Comments, questions, complaints?
  15. I have to test things out, but the "apply" speed seems to be faster and it certainly helps keep me on top of which of my three clients needs updating.
  16. Welcome, you've been through a lot to get here. Solidarity!

    Thanks for reading and I'm sorry if this is in the wrong sub forum.
    1. Leveling is fast. Too fast. You will breeze right past content and stories even if you solo. If you team, you might blow past huge things that you don't want to miss. You can always roll another character, or "flash back" and replay content you missed with your current character, though. So don't worry.

    2. There are no real "item hunts" in game, that your leveling is dependent upon. Sure, some older content may ask you to "defeat 25 guys that are wandering around near you," but that's not hard. If a missions asks you to find something, or several somethings, they are ALL in that one mission, flash, and make a loud noise so you can't miss them.

    3. Instances are one of the primary features of City of Heroes--you may not realize how many people are actually playing, because they're all inside of separate instanced missions. Sure, there is some "neighborhood" stuff, but by and large you won't have any trouble finding people to play with in or out of an instanced map. Does that answer the question?

    4. End game. For the past 6+ years, the end game in City of Heroes has been taking your characters through everything the game has to offer. Or rolling new characters and seeing the whole game from a separate perspective. It's a biiiig game. But if you jump in now, you can check out the first new "real" endgame City of Heroes has ever had, the Incarnate system. It's for level 50 (the maximum level) characters--and joining now means you'll be par with everyone else. There is one "level" of it out now, with another four coming within a few weeks.

    Lay out some more questions. Other people will have better and different answers than I do, and you'll find that the City forums are markedly different than any others you've visited.
  17. Even if I had heard of this, I am way too far away to attend. But I will say that the chance to meet Zombie Fryer in person is truly an incentive.

  19. I've still never seen these NPCs before, ever.
  20. Awesome thread. I'll use this when I set things up tonight. Does this address all the different game versions appearing/not appearing in the options screen? Was that fixed?
  21. 15K represent, right here, Rookery-style.

    Hai guyz...

    Came to check up on your disciples?
  23. Is it bad that I was expecting "floating" to mean "aerial?" And that I was actually disappointed for a moment?
  24. Anyone have screenies of the new Wisp emote?

    Wisp Aura?
