    Looks like the brown stuff is hitting the rotary device...
  2. I read this last night, but decided not to post anything until an official announcement was made confirming or denying it...

    As pointed out by someone else this would make for PvP tournements easier.

    Far more efficient to just use the test server for things like that.

    Oh wait, they already do.

    I'm /signing this... And getting my camera.

    He's got his suspensor belt on, he'd just do that hovering somersaulting thing mid-air.

    And then turn it off when floating above Chatarsis.
  5. When I first tried EVE, there was a bug in the tutorial code that meant for every asteroid you mined, you only got 0.001 veldspar from it. Man that was BORING!!!!

    I ended up dragging my sorry carcass back to the station and BUYING the rock I needed to get past that part of the tutorial! Not a good sign really!

    Needless to say it was uninstalled pretty soon after that!

    CoH is my second MMO, and the first I paid for (I was on the original beta for WoW and couldn't stand it). Every other MMO I've tried since has been measured against CoH as a base, and every one has come up wanting.

    And... uh, perhaps real life forum debates! We can all sit in the VIP lounge and caps lock at each other.

    Lockable threads

    Yeah. We'll be moving over to vBulletin forum software in the near™ future.
  8. You want to pay a tenner for a temporary transfer?

    Lockable threads

    Because that's an admin level permissions thing. They're NOT going to give any users admin level permissions, no matter what.

    It's also WAY too abusable.

    Can we be dismembered too? Like if an exploding Nemises Warhulk catches you there's bits everywhere (although where would you centre the camera?)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Easy, the goriest bit.

    Mind you... If you get blown apart, it becomes slight harder to explain that you were REALLY only knocked out and the mediport system just gave you a shot of some to wake you up...

    Still... Having the ragdoll stuff applied to our avatars on defeat would be kinda fun.

  11. No, I took your comments as general. I merely used myself as an example as someone who posts more than he's in game. When I *am* in game (the evenings), I don't post that much!

    I thought about the 4 hour rule because IMHO I find (or it appears) that some people spend more time in the forum then in the game, and they come across as thinking they know everyline of code in the game backwards.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You ever considered that some of those people (such as me), are actually posting when they're at work, and CAN'T play the game? If you ever look at my posting pattern, you'll notice the vast majority of my posts are during the weekday daytime...

    [ QUOTE ]

    To make matters worse these same people do not come across in a friendly manner - they appear almost aggressive.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    You seem to be about the only one thinking that people are being aggressive. Sure, flame wars happen, it's human nature to disagree; but if you think people on HERE are being aggressive, don't EVER go reading the WoW forums!
  13. .. Or for £5.99 (nearly half the price you propose!), just do a server transfer.
  14. I'd be careful with software like that guys. NC might consider it's use as botting and spank you for it!
  15. Off topic, yes? Personal attack? Not in the slightest. It was an observation and a question.

    As to your suggestion, I'd have thought my opinion was clear in my first reply. Pre-approved suggestions is an incredibly silly idea and very very much /unsigned.

    "Cough " I havent endorsed any thing in this thread. I have just commented on why I have been joined at the hip with Jade? Please change your comment FFM.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Fair enough. I thought I saw a post of yours in here, guess I mistook it for the other thread. Edited as requested. You might want to edit your quoting.
  17. You REALLY don't like it that people disagree with you, do you?
  18. If you think everyone has missed the point of the thread, then why don't you explain it in a more clear manner?

    Or is it just that you're annoyed because, once again, nobody else has agreed with you?

    Oh, and very much /unsigned to everything in the OP. Not one bit of it made the slightest bit of sense. And that seems to be the opinion of pretty much everyone else who posted here.
  19. I've seen this before, and it's caused by an error in the account database. Support CAN and will fix it for you easily enough. I'm surprised it's taking them so long actually...
  20. Anyone thought to phone OS and see if they can confirm the booking?
  21. I doubt we'll hear very much until a month or two before the event...
  22. The correct switch should be -compatiblecursors 1 but it hasn't been needed for some time...
  23. Some things to consider.

    1. NCSoft bought the CoH IP from Cryptic. Cost? Easily $millions
    2. NCSoft set up a new company, in new offices, to develop for CoH. Cost? $millions.
    3. NCSoft have employed a LOT of new staff to develop for CoH. Cost? $hundreds of thousands.

    If anyone SERIOUSLY thinks they're now going to do NOTHING with the IP, after spending all this money, they're idiots.

    I guarantee you, good things are coming soon; and very likely some WOW factor stuff. They will HAVE too.

    Anyone remember Build a Better Bridger?

    I'm starting to plan on running one for my character (his current costume, quite frankly, sucks )...

    Will there actually be a winner this time?
