  1. Also, you're seeing a lot of AMD here.

    Just so you can get an idea of what can be got on the Intel front.

    Link

    Note, if you have the extra $40-50, I REALLY recommend getting the 1GB GTX460. Because of the way the architecture of the GTX 460 works, reducing memory means they need to turn off some of the ROPs, thus decreasing performance by more than simply total memory reduction on other cards would.

    It does add a disturbing twist on the events in Praetoria, if these guys are all grizzled war vets fighting the power why on Earth do they sound like they should be mumbling "Brawndo has what plants crave" repeatedly?

    Very scray.
    If I come across a Resistance member who tells me "Go 'way! 'batin!", I'm done...

Seriously, patience is a virtue. Not hard at all to turn some stuff back on, especially if it means people with low end machines are saved from the massive graphic attacks of some people that find it necessary to be a level 50 and still have every toggle on because, as I said earlier, Hami is right around that corner to surprise attack you, I guess.


    Edit: And the point about having to run at base speed being such a pain. Seriously? Seriously? Are we that spoiled on superspeed, ninja run, sprint, etc., that running at base speed about 15 feet is such a huge chore that it might as well be miles?
    Please re-read the thread then. Actually read it this time. Note the plethora of issues besides just "I don't want to re-toggle" and "I don't want to move that slow."

    When you're actually read to take on this dialog, come on back.

    No. Jolting Chain isn't auto-hit. It's using your Acc to jump to the next person to the limits of it's range. Including jumping back at people who it may have already hit.

    However, the first time it misses an Acc check, the chain is done.

    So, chuck LOTS of Acc at the power.

    Way to miss the point. *Golf Clap*

    Everything in moderation. Including moderation.

    Myself? I strive for ONE moderate act a week.

    Whoops, off the tracks!

    Again, we'll accept a Level 1 Fire/Rad if that's all you have.

    HOWEVER, it's usually more renumerative for people if they spend a little time solo and get themselves up to Level 10 so they can start doing Task Forces.

    Also are you guys going praet tonight? Who do I contact for invite. If you're on right now I'd like to chat. I might make right now and get some levels in so if I get back after class and people are on there will be less of a level disperity.
    Okay we meet on The Hill in Talos Island at 6PM Pacific, 7PM Mountain, 8PM Central, 9PM Eastern. Standard or Daylight Savings, the times are always the same.

    We play until we're done. Usually it's somewhere in the neighborhood of 2-3 hours.

    You can contact me.
    I'll be on this evening as Vortex Core.

    So tell me (keeping in mind the thread), what's new that I can expect when I log in?

His response was to activate every single power at his disposal on me, including buffs and location based powers.
    Then your problem was only PERIPHERALLY the "flashy powers are annoying" thing. Your REAL problem was that the other player WAS A DICK.

    Then they just need to put a market interface terminal item on the list for items you can build into your base and be done with it.

    I agree with the suggestion up thread to add a "studio b" so those who want to shut everything off around them can have a place to do so without inconveniencing everyone else.
    Agreed.

    1. Go to http://www.plaync.com
    2. Log in to your account.
    3. Select your City of Heroes Account
    4. Check to make sure you haven't passed your "Playable until" date.
    5. Click on Change Password
    6. Alter the password to what you think it should be (type carefully to avoid fat-fingering it).
    7. Give it a little bit (5-10 minutes) for the change to propagate.
    8. Try logging into the game again.

    No, please, I'd rather commit seppuku while being simultaneously lobotomized, castrated (with no anesthetic) while being fed (feet first) into a chipper-shredder.

    Great way to present one side of an argument that cuts both ways.

    On the flip side: Don't force the annoyance of resetting toggles on everyone because of the annoyance of a few (people who think that all the flashy FX (in a superhero game no less) are "annoying").

    You'll notice what I did there right? The same, exact denigrating usage.

    Could be worse.

    When that big bad Tank Smasher gets that "I wanna rip his head off and poop in the crater" look on him, you don't want to have to try running him down in a tinfoil Hybrid.

    And if you're doing yourself a little heavy marketing, making multiple trips into the auction house, start multiplying it. Unlike KR, the crafting and vendor locations aren't right next door.
