So, even though there are not many who would like to see voice-overs added to CoX.....if they were added, who would you like to provide the voices for the Signature Characters?
The only one I am definite on is Tim Curry as Dr. Aeon

How excatly do you want them to be redesigned?
Harder? Updated with more recent powersets? More expanded? Made for level 50s?

Johnny did you ever get the new mac mini?
I'm very curious how it is going. I want to buy the wife a mac mini, but it must run CoX. Even if it can't handle ultra mode or whatever. As long as the original game runs good.
I just got a new Mac Mini last Friday for my birthday. (My wife is awesome!!)
Anywho...It does run CoX very nicely, and with the GeForce 320M that comes 'stock' it does run Ultra-mode (at least on minimal settings). Even without any UM features going, the game looks a whole lot prettier and runs much smoother than it did on my old machine.

Quote:Same thing happened to me. To fix it, I deleted the MAPS & V_MAPS folders from the game folders. The game seems to be running fine now but I'd still like to use the map pack. I'd download Crossover and go that way, but this is my wife's machine and she gets upset when I install new programs.Originally Posted by Zato
Installed the map pack. Immediately after installing could not get to log in screen, just black screen, forever. Next launch I told it to verify files, which it did. Still black screen. Being a CPU repair technician for 20+ years I did all the basic repairs and file checks, then deleted the COH app (forgot my screenshots were in there so there goes my whole pic history unfortunately) and tried to re-install. The installer did not work. I finally had to make invisible files viewable and delete everything connected with the game (system files, prefs, et). The installer is working now and the long DL install is in process. Don't know what the problem is but the game does not like something installed by the Mac version map pack. I'm running the newest operating system, everything totally updated.

So, it's 5:30 pm PST and I haven't seen or heard about any codes being posted today. Did they forget to post one or did I miss it for today?
EDIT: NVM...I found the post with the codes -
I'm having this problem now and cannot seem to get it fixed. Any ideas?

It'll run the "Classic" graphics mode.
It won't run Ultra Mode.

My 8 year old Sony VAIO has died, at least to the point to where it barely runs CoX without locking up. It has served me well up to this point, but now the poor thing is pretty much only good for e-mail and web-surfing and it's time for me to put it out to pasture. I'm considering getting one of the new Mac Mini's and am curious as to how CoX will run on it.
Basic Model Mac Mini Tech Specs
-2.4GHz or 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
-3MB on-chip shared L2 cache
-1066MHz frontside bus
-2GB (two 1GB SO-DIMMs) of 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM; two SO-DIMM slots support up to 8GB
-NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory
Any thoughts?

I was running a DE mission a couple months ago and ran into some 'trees' growing in the middle of an office building. I had never seen this before...even though I've been playing for 5 years....so,I thought it was a graphics bug until they turned into DE and started attacking me.

Also, if you're lucky enough to be a member of an SG/VG with a base that has the Ouro Crystal in it (can't remember the exact name of the crystal) you can use it (after level 25) to access a flashback mission. If you don't have the Ouro Portal summoning power yet, you will get it once you complete a mission using the SG/VG Ouro Crystal.

Quote:This was my initial thought in having a Prestige requirement. However, given the responses I have received on this thread and taking into account my overall goal (to form a cohesive group of players who enjoy playing together), it has forced me to reconsider that particular requirement.Originally Posted by DarkGob
It's not a terrible idea to ask people to play in SG mode until you at least get base TPs up. Maybe base storage too. It's not like prestige all gets directly funneled to the SG leader and the members get no benefit from it.
I play this game to have fun and enjoy doing so with other like-minded people. Yes, I would like both groups to have functional bases, and it is my sincere hope that others who join either group feel the same and will opt to play in SG mode. But, if members choose to not play in SG mode, then that is their choice and they will not be excluded from the group for making that choice. It is more important to me that the members of both groups have fun and enjoy the camaraderie of their fellow members.

Quote:I would like to thank Funk_X for this! It sincerely gave me a lot to think about.Originally Posted by Funk_X
Prestige gets people here into a tizzy. See a long time ago, some of the SG/VG's here decided that they all wanted to be number 1, as a status symbol. A certain Vg decided that the best way to get the most prestige was to pretend to be nice to people and get them to join and then milk them for all of the prestige they could, and kick their members when they weren't producing enough. but after a while, people got fed up with that system and decided to join fun groups and enjoy the game. That VG has long since failed, of course rather than admit failure, they still troll and lurk, trying to drum up as much drama as they can, popping in to say "Hey look at me! i used to be relevant!" but really it's just just sad. Funny how we've gone from 3 big sg/vg's in the last few years to only two, and those two are the ones where the members enjoy playing as a team and taking the game lightly. The same two sg/vg's that are contributing members of the Pinnacle community, well respected and known for in game accomplishments, unlike others that had megalomaniac dictators imposing rules and quotas on it's members, keeping lists of "enemies" and disrupting people's fun. what i'm trying to say to the original poster, is try to form a good fun group of players, but don't recruit people just for what you can get out of them, or else you'll wind up like a certain little troll who has flared up in this thread like an unwanted std. Take a look at this screenshot and try to be like the top 1 and 2 sg's on there, then you can skip down to 4 and from 4-10 are pretty good too. Those are examples you should try and follow. Good luck to you.

Since my whole point in starting these groups was to form a group of players who like to play, I have decided to completely remove the Prestige requirement. It was never my intent to simply milk people for Prestige...but simply to form a group here on Pinnacle that was fun to play with.
All are welcome to join either group regardless of experience. If anyone is interested, please look me up in-game (@Johnny-Johnny)

Quote:OMG...I had forgotten about THAT MISSION! Thanks for allowing me to relive the nightmare!Originally Posted by Warkupo
Somewhat off topic, but long ago before all the jet packs and ninja run, I remember being in King's Row and jumping on the small window ledges so I could scale a building, hoping that there were CoT on top so that I could complete THAT MISSION.
And anyone who has done what I have done knows what mission THAT MISSION is.

I have heard rumors, though unconfirmed, that Kevin Smith plays somewhat regularly. Again, those are unconfirmed rumors.

This game needs to take into account players would would do stupid thinks like stop half way up a building.
(Not that I ever did that lots and lots of times)

Just watched your video Sam.....it's awesome (as usual). If I wasn't already a player, watching your videos would certainly peek my interest in the game. IMHO, Paragon Studios needs to hire you as part of their promotional team so you can get paid for all these wonderful videos that you keep making.
Keep up the great work!!

Just did this with my lvl 50 Bots/Traps MM. I was expecting one helluva fight. Right before I activated the 3rd set of clones, I gave my Assault Bot about 7 red insps and popped 6 purples for myself...then I clicked the computer to unleash the clones. As they spawned I ran in and threw down caltrops....after that I targeted each clone one by one and set my bots on them as they were trying to spawn their own bots. All in all...the fight lasted about a minute and I didn't take a single hit....overall, much easier than I expected.
