  1. Kinetic Melee has the best Assassin's Strike in the game in my opinion. Looks like a Hadouken.

    Wisp Aura

    It's a known issue.
  3. I say if you don't get the things you should get for October by Oct. 11, then you should contact support. As it stands now, it looks like Oct. 11 will be the date stuff will be given out. Hopefully after that it'll be on the day of your billing. I, myself, am active until April 1, 2012, and my billing date has been the 1st for as long as I can remember.
    If I don't see my goodies on the 12th, I'll contact support.
  4. If ye release the Convention exclusive costumes, ye may have a deal. Avast, ghost pirate is not for I. Arr.*

    *:You forgot to put a small preview of it in the Store. Almost bought it then I saw this thread to see that it'd be a waste of 600 points.
  5. Wait, maintenance on a weekend?

    Hopefully this would perhaps also return the collector's edition capes and the wisp aura to people who should have them unlocked.
  6. I lost my Collectors edition perks (four winds, and Arachnos Cape emblem), as well as my prestige slide. As well as the wisp aura.
  7. How do paragon points work with this if I want to test the market? Are they provided for free for testing purposes, or do I need to shell out real money to test the system.
  8. These costumes for CoT are great. But I'm still wondering how the ghosts and demons look. Will we have the old low-res demons and ghosts playing with the circle or have they been tweaked too?
  9. The pricing details are subject to change.

    You forgot that VIPs can purchase up to a maximum of 48 slots per server, you can BUY 2 additional enhancement bars (yes, for all characters). This just means that you can carry 30 instead of 10. You can buy 5 additional costume slots and these will be on every single character. So you can start a character and they'll have 6 slots which you can change.
  10. I'm a little confused.
    It says the enhancement trays are account wide. Does that mean they apply to current and new characters made on the account?

    As well with the additional character slots. I did buy for up to 36 slots on a server right now and have 5 veteran reward character slots I can unlock on a server. Will I just need to buy 7 additional slots to get up to 48 on the server, or do I need to go in for the full 12?

    Either way, you've got me spending a few dollars at launch. Even with my VIP free points, I doubt it'll be enough for me to buy the additional premium powers and the costume slots and the enhancement trays and the character slots.
  11. I'd join if my PC didn't bite the dust. This PC isn't good enough to handle CoH.
  12. My desktop PC that could run City of Heroes and I used often is now dead. I have no job so can't afford to replace it. Boo

    F2P Doom!

    Hey, it's your money. I'm staying on Virtue because I'm not elitist. I'll enjoy playing with the new players. It'll be them experiencing something all new, and for once I'll be the veteran.

    Remember, free players CAN'T send tells. They need money to send tells.

    The restrictions.

    Virtue Or VIP

    I'm staying on Virtue. As a VIP, I'd be able to get priority queue access. I just hope that the devs don't go, "So, we'll do events only on the VIP server."
  15. Nyan! Nyan nyan nya.*

    *Translation: Thar she blows! The white whale!
  16. When LotRO was subscriber only, Turbine hardly made money on the game. After it went free to play, their profits exploded. CoH becoming free to play is smart from a business standpoint. It will bring in new customers to the game. With the restrictions of a trial account these days, a person trying the game can hardly experience what the game has to offer. A free player could now experience 1-50 with some restrictions, but hardly the amount of a trial. Not to mention that if they enjoy the game enough, they'll shell out a few dollars to help the game continue. I'll be staying as a VIP player. No restrictions at all for me!
  17. I have 36 character slots unlocked on Virtue. I'm not planning on buying 24 slots on a new server then spending millions of dollars transferring them over. Virtue is my home, and I'm staying.
  18. Now my account will NEVER lapse! ha ha ha!

    But I'll still be giving them money to stay VIP. I'm keeping all my stuff.
  19. I'm staying as VIP. I'll also give Paragon a big sack full of money in order to buy benefits.
  20. *wanders in holding a cane, hobbled over*
    In my day, we didn't have fancy new nintendos and what have you.

    I am the old timer today. 312 months of life. Aka, 26 years. Yesterday was 25.
  21. *appears in a puff of smoke*
    In real life, I am now officially a college graduate. My ceremony was yesterday.
    *disappears in a puff, then reappears dressed like Inspector Clouseau, Steve Martin's Clouseau*
    Very strange indeed. To the lab!
  22. Ghost Widow isn't Melissa Bianco. Melissa Bianco is War Witch, and would appear in-game as such. I was on a team once and Ghost Widow came and crashed the party. She didn't do much, but we went through the mission with GW's presence behind us.

    The devs for CoH are among the best devs ever. We also have a great community team, unlike other teams for other games that just show up to get paid and only interact with the community as enforcers or just posting patch notes.

    Coincidence?

    One is nemesis, the other is a nemesis plot.
