    Thanks for the post, Aidalyn, and for helping in Paragon City.

    Wish I could advise you on how to get/keep your friends interested, but it's a trick I've yet to learn myself. When I bring it up to people I think might enjoy it, they tend to be turned off by the "MMO-ness" of it, kneejerking a reply like "Oh I won't have time for THAT.".

    I think we all know that CoX is one of the most casual-friendly games out there, which is something that DOES work in its favor.

    Anyone else have any thoughts?

    That was a great story. Thank you for sharing.

    IW,

    Thanks for the footage. Best wedding animation I've seen yet. Thanks!

    Valentines Event

    <QR>

    The wife and I won't be getting home 'till late, so it looks like we'll miss the actual event. I know someone's mentioned taking lots of screen shots, but I'd like to know if anyone will be grabbing any "home movies" as well.

    Thanks...

    Don't reply to the post above - to be flagged for Ex to update the original post.

    Anything you wish linked to in the listing, please post here. Just be sure to check that the link's not already there. For instance, all the 2004 and 2005 fan video contest winners are linked together.

    And if you have any suggestions for a better way to sort these, I'd love some input. By name, for those with several, and then 'Misc' for one or two is how I started, but there may be a better way to do it.


    Edit: This got me to thinking....no fan video contest since '05? Seems like it's time for another round to me!

    ...must wait 24 hours before updating second account.


    WTF?!

    I know you guys try to protect against credit card fraud and all that, but for future packs, could you find a way to to sell us more than one unit in a single purchase? Maybe not a dozen all at once or anything, but at least a number equal to our game accounts on any given PlayNC account?

    So if someone has 3 CO* accounts, he can buy 3 upgrades simultaneously.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Agreed.

    However, it is better now. Used to be a month wait when trying to buy a second GvE code for my second account.

    Hey, NCSoft, how about rewarding customers with multiple accounts with the ability to manage those accounts AS A WHOLE?

    Ah, they're probably afraid we're triple boxing farmers.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'd love a 'Family Plan' for managing mine, hubby's and the extra accoutns we have. I let my 11 year old on my second account depending on his grades.

    Seriously <3 a family plan. The family that games together and blasts baddies together...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Athy,

    That's certainly be of benefit to my stepdaughter. We buy her time cards since we're trying to teach her responsibility, but could certainly budget for a group discount (my one account, the wife's two, and the girl's one).

    But basically you're right..."the family that fights together stays all right together!"

    My goal was to get my 36 to 40 by the weekend. Didn't get that done, but every character on Infinity got a little face time, and nearly all of them went up one level.

    My 36 DID make it to 37...I got to run a group with my SG, play in a larger group with another friend of mine, and frankly thrilled to the activity around Paragon City (and to a lesser extent, the Rogue Isles, though I didn't spend as much time there this weekend).

    Thanks for another great event, Devs. Can't wait to do it again later this year. WOO!

    Okay, it's silly, the audio's rough...and it's 100% more of a CoX movie than *I* have ever done. Thanks for sharing, man!

    (WAS kinda funny)
  9. <QR>

    Hey thanks for sharing "All Star"! I've been a big fan of the Abyss' stuff, and that one had totally passed me by.

    Oh and yeah, I'd be happy to help with an anniversary project. I've got a decent voice, some clever toons, and a helpful SuperGroup that would probably like to contribute as well.
  10. <QR>

    I...love your stuff.

    Seriously. I could take the video for "Daydream" alone and make sweet love to it by the campfire, THAT is how much I love your stuff.

    Wow...TMI, huh? Sorry folks.
  11. <QR>

    Thanks, Ex! City of Zeroes is a true nerdly pleasure of mine and Derek needs his stuff lauded by the CoX faithful.

    Heck just ask him, I'm sure he'd tell you!

    I'm very lucky. My wife will be making sure I am up and ready for the event, and that we have plenty of snacks nearby. Its great when your spouse plays the games you do

    Of course, we met in CoH, so that's also a plus

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If only I had a girlfriend who played CoH.

    ...

    If only I had a girlfriend.

    Anyway, I'll be playing. Get together with SG, recruit some more, and play some more.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hey lemme tell ya man, having an SO that plays your nerdy little superhero game with you is a mixed blessing. Oh it's mostly good, but when your wife has 10 (yes, 10) level 50s to your...um...NONE...it kinda makes you wonder.

    I swear I REALLY thought she was kidding when she said she wanted her own account. That was two years ago.

    I will spend all but 5 hours a day for sleep leveling all my heroes who are not lvl 50 on Freedom to lvl 46.

    Why 46?

    Each one will get to 46 so that when DBL exp is over.. I can be someones PERMA BRIDGE.. to 50 for each one.

    My husband is doing the same.. so after DBL EXP we will have about 9 46s sitting on Freedom each.

    And if we get those all to 46 with time to waste we will get all our villains to 35+ on Virtue...

    And if we still have time... ... Infinity is lookin pretty good to house all my "good names" toons

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Pain,

    Speaking on behalf of the Titans of Paragon City, we'd love to have you with us on Infinity whether you join our SG or not. Not that I've got any server luv bias or anything...

    The wife couldn't get off the entire weekend, but since she won't have to be at work until 1:00 on Saturday, she'll be parked and playing early Saturday morning.

    I, on the other hand, will probably rotate through some of my lowbies to get them up to travel powers, then concentrate on my Level 36 and see if I can't get him to 40 before the weekend is out.

    Ambitious, perhaps, but that's my plan and I'm sticking to it. So neener.
