My first character Vegaton doesn't like farmers. They kill plants. Vegaton doesn't like that.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have this mental image of Vegaton standing in a Kansas wheat field carrying a protest sign and chanting, "Bread is murder! . . . Bread is murder! . . . Save the wheat!"

Meanwhile farmer Brown sitting on top of his John Deere thresher looks around to see if there are any witnesses . . . and since it's Kansas there won't be any, he guns it.

While not against it -

How would you handle making sure that it's actually something the SG (in general) agrees on, as opposed to just the super leader?

[/ QUOTE ]

This.

There should also be a fee for changing an SG name. Something heftier than the price of a character name change because it can affect up to 150 players.

Barbeque.

... or alternately, if you're on a team, treat it like a train mission. Go to the nearest AE building, hit the stream, and be there.

Either one's good with me.

[/ QUOTE ]

This.

If you're a lvl50 Hero, you basically stay in Peregrine, with the occasional jaunt to RWZ for a ship raid or to Cimmerora for an ITF.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm sorry but you are making a personal choice to limit your experience. Spending 90% of your time in one zone and the other 10% in 2 others out of 6 zones with level 50 content is your own fault.

Cimerora
Peregrine Island
Recluse Victory
The Hive
The Rikti War Zone
The Storm Palace

There's also no reason to duplicate radio missions so 50's can get them in all zones when you can go to the AE and experience a plethora of new content

Besides we are getting 2 new TF's in I15 and who knows what with CoGoRo.

If any faction deserves new content it's the Villains. I'd rather see them get new level 50 content before heroes.

July 18th. It says so in their calendar.

[/ QUOTE ]

It says July 18, 2008

[ QUOTE ]
If you guys would actually go back about a year, they marked it in their Calendar for July 18th this year.

[/ QUOTE ]

You mean THIS calendar that says July 2008

If you look closely at the dates that calendar was from May, 2008 to April 2009. It was released to celebrate the fourth anniversary.

Until we get an announcement or a redname confirms it, don't go planning your schedule around last years calendar.

A 2xp weekend usually gets used to break up the tedium during the summer. This year we have I15 coming out in the next month or so. That could easily push back the date of the 2xp event or even cancel it altogether.

Just a note, the Magic Bolero in the Magic Pack is incompatible with High Collar capes, or any other back costume option (capes, wings).

[/ QUOTE ]

You may encounter some people with both but it was a bug. Those costumes choices can no longer be selected. The players that have them can't ever change those costumes or they will be lost.

There are also extra goodies you can get from other editions of the game. If you want those items, I strongly suggest that you buy the full edition because in addition to the goodies you get a free month added to your account.

So for example if you bought the Mac edition you would get the:

Valkyrie Costume set
Mission Teleporter power
and the free month.

Price $19.99 minus the free month $15.00 you'll save your getting it for $4.99

Otherwise it costs $9.99 for just the goodies and no free month.

[ QUOTE ]
In addition, how could this be done? Really the only way they would be able to do this would be to move the interior of the building to another separate zone. That would kind of ruin the aesthetic quality of being able to actually see the zone you're in through the windows.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think it can be done. Oh well.

[ QUOTE ]
Don't quote him! Come up with an original response.

[ QUOTE ]
If you are playing the game in an environment where your system can be compromised, you probably shouldn't be playing the game there at all.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok then I guess you are offering to buy computers for all the customers that don't own one and have to play in places like internet cafes, colleges, libraries, game stores etc. that have internet access.

The OPs biggest mistake was thinking he good trust the evil number 8 in the first place.

Eight, eight, the burning hate, a day between Sunday and Monday so dark it will devastate....

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh cool poetry.

Ladies and gentlemen, hoboes and tramps,
Cross-eyed mosquitoes and bow-legged ants,
I come before you to stand behind you,
To tell you something I know nothing about.
Next Thursday, this is Good Friday,
There will be a Mother’s Day meeting for fathers only;
Admission is free, so pay at the door,
Pull up a seat and sit on the floor.
And I'll tell you a story you’ve all heard before.

One bright morning, in the middle of the night,
Two dead boys, got up to fight,
They lived on the corner, in the middle of the block
On the second floor, of a vacant lot.
One had a fiddle, one had a drum,
And one had a pancake stuck to his bum,
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each another,
One was blind and the other couldn’t see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout “hooray!”
A paralyzed donkey passing by,
Kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all

A mute onlooker shrieked in fright
And a lame man danced at the ghastly sight
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came to arrest the two dead boys,
One dead boy who had no feet
Began to run down the street.
The other dead boy who could not talk,
Said "Oh Policeman let me walk."
If you don’t believe this little lie is true
Ask the blind man he saw it too!
She was looking through a knothole in a barbwire fence.




at least I think that's how it goes

My concience died in another thread over the weekend. There was a memorial service for it this morning but no one attended.

3 enhancement tables - Open to all members
5 Inspiration chests - small, Medium, Large, Presents, Ambrosia/Ess of furies
9 storage bins - 6 hold base salvage, 2 general SG use, 1 holds Halloween/CC salvage
1 personal IO storage vault

Padding post count.

With Ouroboros, AE, sidekicking, and exempting - you can do everything on one character. Okay, one character per side (red/blue).

Having more than one character takes up server resources and ties up valuable hero names that others cannot take. This is an RPG - and your character is very important. When a new player finds out they can't get the name they want - they quit. You have cost CoX one new player for every alt you have. That's a lot of money for development your selfishness has cost all of us.

And you can only play one character at a time (if you have multiple accounts - one per account). So having more than one is just a waste.

And when you play alts you aren't connected to your main. It is an RPG - you can only have fun from the satisfaction that comes from truly knowing and inhabiting your character. You can't possibly have fun having alts - so why have them (I know, I tried it out and hated it)?

Alts fill up supergroups. The devs have had to waste time making SGs larger so that selfish people could have alts.

And alts make it hard for everyone else to have fun. I see somebody on and make a friend. Later they aren't on. Maybe they are - but on an alt. I don't know. It just looks like my new friend is missing. Alts kills friendships and community - and everyone knows that community is what keeps MMO's alive.

I call upon the devs to solve this problem that is driving away new players, giving existing players ennui and making them quit. Reduce all accounts to 1 character redside and 1 character blueside. Stop selfishness from ruining my game.

Well written.

sure why not. More choices is always good.

We get free issues with new features frequently.

The last expansion was CoV which was announced a year before it was released and was in development long before they announced it was coming.

It could easily be 2010 before Going Rogue is released, and it was being worked on probably as long as CoV was. There was even a survey done last year asking for opinions on some of the features in the new expansion.

We've known they were working on something for some time, it's just coincidence they confirmed it after I14 was released.

If a person doesn't care who the emails are from, I see no problems with a delete all button.

I'm assuming this is directed at all the spam tho, and I'd much rather see spam petitions generated so those accounts get banned.

If a delete all generated spam petitions it could accidentally petition an innocent player. I only think of this because I just got contacted by email by an old friend over the weekend who had been gone for around a year. He mailed me his new global so I could look him up. If I hadn't gone thru the emails I would have missed it.

Still not a bad idea, just needs more fleshing out.

Also Aett makes a good point.

Suggestion forums that way ----------------->

Isn't the request channel where you should be requesting teams?

[ QUOTE ]
there's nothing to stop it besides gutting the game and making it City of Heroes: Level 10 Forever!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

That's a blatantly false statement. If the devs wanted they could easily put a stop to all farming without gutting the game.

All they need to do is make all missions timed.


NOTE: What I said is NOT a suggestion. I personally hate timed missions. It was put forth only to refute the stupid claim that the game would need to be gutted to stop farming.

I didn't mean that you guys were insulting me, I was just kinda of saying it to show that I wasn't insulted but I guess I could have stated it better.

[/ QUOTE ]


Heh. Yeah, the wording you chose gave a different impression than you intended. No harm no foul tho.

The idea itself isn't bad. I just hope you can use the additional Rikti storyline the others provided that you may not have been aware of to flesh out your idea so it fits more smoothly into the game.

[ QUOTE ]
Yeah. I took your advice and I realized that Forbin_Project and Zekiran_Immortal didn't intentionally insult me. Zek did take a rather condescending tone with me which must have set me off. Also the whole bit on my being too lazy to find a team was just annoying when I simply asked for suggestions. All the same, sorry to the two of them for flipping out.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll be happy to start over with a clean slate since I am far from what could ever be considered a "perfect poster". My own mistakes are many. Everyone stumbles once in a while.
