    No one should be forced to team with people they don't want to. Everyone has the right to be selective about who they team with. If a group of players want to run incarnate stuff just amongst their friends/SG/Coalition/private global channel whatever then that's their own damn business. No one has te right to disrupt their fun as long as they are following the rules of the game.

    To be accurate only players that had pre-existing CoH accounts had to make an extra purchase to get access to the incarnate stuff. New players that bought, and continue to buy the GR complete collection got/get GR as well as CoH and CoV all in one purchase.

    If the devs stay true to past history GR will eventually be merged seemlessly with the rest of the game just like CoH and CoV were merged and it won't matter what edition someone buys they'll get access to the whole combined game regardless of when they first activated their account.

    There's two copies of the Collectors DvD available on Amazon if your interested. If they're out of your price range you'll just have to keep waiting.

    Oh yeah. You can stay as long as you like. The mission where you choose a faction is the last one and you can put it off indefinitely.

    No. You can only access Pocket D. You have to do the mission and pick a side to get any hero or villain content.

    Think of the benefits - those a**hats on the road who do 85 in the rain with bald tires? ZAP. People who insist on parking monster SUVs in "compact" labelled spaces? ZAP. People who call in for customer support and are too busy arguing with me to listen? ZAP.

    Sure, it's not glamorous or exciting or dramatic, but I suspect the world would be a better place after a while.

    This would be a good power only if it came with intense Ice Cream Headaches whose strength and duration varied based upon the level of stupidity being displayed and culminating with head implosions or cranial rectal inversions for the really epic displays of stupidity.

  11. While I personally look forward to any future Boosters the devs might release doing what the OP suggests is a horrible idea. We are very fortunate that we have a company that doesn't try to nickel and dime us to death like Cryptic does. Normally I'd just /unsigned but this idea is so bad I have to /jpoweranger.

    New zone?!

    I heard from a guy that knows a guy who has a cousin who is dating the sister of someone who is married to one of the devs and he said he was told that the new zone is going to be a level 20-50 co-op zone in the Praetorian dimension and it will be an underwater city in the Sea of Tranquility on the Moon.
  15. If there were I didn't see them, but it wouldn't surprise me.

    No you can't. People who actually know what's in hot dogs have tried for years to make better ones and have failed miserably.

    Actually I'm guessing it's far more likely that some twit would find Simian costume choices offensive. Like the moron that claimed the Science Booster was promoting cross dressing/gender bending and would corrupt children.

    Quote:
    I thought CoX was rated Teen. The devs go out of there way to gen names and costumes that are inappropriate for the Teen rating. Nothing with a sexual nature or undertone is allowed due to the rating. Rightfully so though. Which is cool an all but what confuses me is now with booster pack 3. They are introducing cross dressing. It potentially opening up a huge can of worms. Now if you changed gender and it applied to all character slots then this would even have come up. but since you can have say 3 slots male and 2 female. Say what ya want but that is cross dressing and i would think that this would violate the Teen rating.

    personally i have no 'feeling' i need to work out about transgenders as you put it but i dont think cross dressing is appropriate for a game that my children or any1s child might and do play.

    I would say sry for actually having morals and values but i would be lying. But if you want you kids to cross dress whither in game or in Rl thats not my call. I for one dont want it.

    Luckily for us that person seems to have gone away a few months after that.

    That's great news then! I must have encounterd a bug when I was still showing the items on the crafting table in RWZ.

    If the items that you already unlocked don't appear on the list anymore because you can't get them more than once on a character then you don't have to worry about remembering that they were unlocked.


    And it's obvious why the devs programmed it so the Vanguard costume recipes would disappear after being unlocked because Vanguard recipes can't be traded. So the Vanguard list only shows you what you can still buy and craft. It makes the list less confusing.


    If the items are still showing after the Vanguard pack was rewarded then that's a bug that needs to be reported.

  21. Just remember Freespecs don't stack. If you still have a freespec from a previous issue you won't get any more until it's used, and any that are handed out while you have an unused freespec on a character are forever lost.

    Especially when the game already does this for me, except for this vanguard pack for some reason.

    If I had only a single character, then what you say makes much more practical sense. Also, if you tend to take long breaks from the game, I wouldn't expect people to remember every little thing their character has gotten over the years.

    I hope this clarifies the perspective I'm coming at this problem from.


    Edited: for grammar and spelling boo boos.

    You're making a mountain out of a mole hill. All you have to remember is that you have all the Vanguard costume pieces on your account. So from now on you only have to buy the temp powers for your characters. It's that simple.

    As for Vanguard costume recipes appearing on the crafting table, that doesn't matter because the game won't let you craft a costume recipe that has already been unlocked. I know because I've forgotten what I had unlocked on other characters and when I've tried to craft a Vanguard costume piece I already unlocked the game wouldn't let me.

    Sounds like you had the storms I'm getting in my area all day today. Severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings. Seems to have cleared up as evening arrived.
