    Elitists? Naaaaah, not around here mate.

    You're completely and utterly wrong, get off my forums.

    So far, no one has said that the white cat is the most essential part. I'm dissapointed.

    Ah, but thanks to the Austin Powers movies, it now has to be a SHAVED white cat!

    Well I'm on Vigin too FFM so I should be routing the same as you but it took me 8 attempts and a 2 min wait to get in

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Same ISP != same routing.
  4. Chances are far higher that it's a routing issue somewhere near the server centre.

    To be honest ive had enough of it, every issue you get these sort of problems now with server stability, but not being able to connect at all is the final straw.

    Another one bites the dust

    Nice of you to blame NC, when from what I can see, it's not actually anything to do with them. They're not responsible for all the points your connection goes through between your home and their servers you know.

    Like I said earlier, MY connection is perfectly fine. I can log in, disconnect, log in again, all without any delays, as normal. Therefore the problem is highly unlikely to have anything to do with the game servers.
  6. Also on Virgin Media, and still connecting instantly. Also, Thyristor, I'm just up the road from you in Aylesford.

    Tiscali here, it was working fine a couple of hours ago so its unlikely its that, plus the internet sides working fine.

    Mirrors Edge is working fine online at the minute. FFM you tried this logged off the game completly? its the first screen you get when you click the icon saying 'connecting #1' that i cant get past.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I didn't have the game loaded at all when I saw this thread, so I loaded it up. Connected instantly, as usual.
  8. All's fine here. Perhaps it's your ISP's having problems?
  9. * STANDARD furniture. Including normal looking beds and bathroom stuff, regular furnishings you'd expect to get in a home
    * Windows. Please god, windows. And not the Microsoft variety either!
    * Chairs which can be sat in properly, in the style of WoW. Click on it and sit.

    So, uh

    It works if you try a link several times.

    CoX shouldn't be affected by this, but I -can- see this being an end to official game forums in the future...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why? They're saying that if youre going to work on sites with kids then you have to be checked to ensure youre not a sex offender.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Because it's an additional layer of red tape on top of the aggravation they ALREADY get. NC themselves already said they wouldn't be making any more official forums because of the extra workload it causes, and indeed, they didn't with Tabula Rasa. This is just going to add yet another layer of workload for them and will probably just push other companies over that "More trouble than it's worth" line.

    Not that it's a bad legislation, it isn't. I just think it'll be a line of effort the games companies won't bother to cross; some at least.

    /r doesn't work if somebody sends you a tell between your reciept of the broken tell and your reply.

    Anecdotally - this seems to be actually getting worse, not better. Is there any news?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yes, there's news. Try looking in the training room forum.

    Its a pity with so little time on his hands he chose to make time for a trivial badge over pvp which a lot of people are upset about.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You DO know that Castle has bugger all to do with badges, right? Right? That's done by someone else...

    Yeah, sure you know that...

    Peacebringer, just because its so damn frustrating to play, i like the attacks in human form, but i hardly ever get chance to fire them because as soon as i get anywhere near melee range im stunned and forced into dwarf form, which isnt as good as a tank so your basically playing a rubbish tank or a rubbish blaster squid.

    Its really annoying because peacebringer is one of the AT's I WANT to like but i cant because there just so flawed.

    I really don't get why people have such problems with PB's... Mine cuts through most mobs like a hot knife through butter...

    Its all shiney

    [ QUOTE ]
    [ QUOTE ]
    Everything has been shiny since Villains was released, you just needed to have the texture settings high enough to get it.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I've yet to have a quick look at patch notes to check, but I'm pretty sure I remember a patch updating a lot of the textures to higher resolution ones. I only started early 2006, so this would have been some time after the release of CoV - my hazy memory guesses at late 2006 or maybe early 2007.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Issue 7 updated CoH to CoV textures.

    P.s Wen will cathedral of pain/base raids be up and running?------ SOON i hope please please!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Don't expect to see CoP ever.
    Base Raids are due to be back when they do the rest of PvP. Don't hold your breath.

    It's still snowing.

    I wouldn't mind, but I have to walk 2 miles to work in 20 minutes.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If I were you, I'd leave now... Walking tends to be slower in the snow as the ground is pretty slippery...
  21. What, you mean you guys didn't get invited? Awwww...

    Whoah! - 4-5cm!, thats at least enough for a half-size scale Sprocket or Rubble.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, but you're off your rocker if you think I'm going on in it... It's freezing out there!
  23. Well, so far today we've had about 4-5cm where I live... Today was the "light snow showers" forecast, and there was a near blizzard this afternoon. Wonder what the morning will bring, with it's "heavy snow" forecast!

    Also, if a situation calls for swearing, I like to hear the more creative versions (or at least less common ones)
