It just doesn't make a bit of sense as far as fitting the topic. I mean, c'mon. At what point does a smaller size car prevent you from falling through a semipermeable cell wall?

I like the balloon analogy better.

LDL, HDL, VLDL or triglycerides?

Is this a trick question?? Actually, I believe all of them are smaller than a breadbox.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah... and I can't believe they're still using that car analogy.

No, it wouldn't necessarily effect everyone.

It was a guess, based on absolutely nothing. Now, ask me about cholesterol molecule size.

Well in CoV I have had lag/load time problems sence it started. That is why i dont play it (waste of $30). And CoH only sence the last issue. The best part of the lag with CoV is the longer I play the worse it gets so just a guess off the top of my head but that tells me sloppy code. I mean really who cares how cool they can get the graphics if due to bad code you cant play it anyways. In all the time i have played i have only heard maybe a dozen people say they dont have lag, get huge burps or ruberbanding. And even they do get some they say they dont but when one of those big burps happens they are usally the first to sound off about it. But hay I dont have a top of the line comp just a little 2.5 ghz, 1 GB RAM, Nvidia 6600gt system with high speed internet. CoX is the only game/anything I every have problems with online, but its must be me not the game. (not directed at you Lady just a rant)

No problem. But, from following a few bits and pieces in the Technical Issues area, it sounds like you might be having problems with the elusive memory leak I've heard about. The bit about it getting worse the longer you play is why I'm thinking memory leak.

And I can't compare machines. I don't know jack about mine. My husband built it for me. And no, I don't think people are exagerrating about lag and such but, if it was truly the game, wouldn't it affect everyone? I don't know. But, there's been a few threads about problems like that in the Technical Issues area, a few rednames follow that area looking for tech type problems.

I wish I could help more. My case is black and silver if that helps... I doubt it but that's about as tech as I can get.

Uping the graphics while making the load times and lag much worse.

[/ QUOTE ]

I feel like I'm missing content or something. What lag? My load times are the same as before, both hero side and villain side. Loading and lag I get on my laptop, but it's the same as it's always been, no worse than six months ago.

Dammit! States, give me lag just like everybody else!

*sits in his throne, and looks about a long table with people sitting around, awaiting his instructions*

Celtic: Men, what we have here is an epidemic. There is chaos in the streets, chaos below our feet, and chaos coming from the skies. We need a way to stop it once...and forever.

LiquidX: Sir! I know of a way to stop them all, but first I'll need a 10 million dollar grant, five interns (three Chinese), and 10-year.

*Celtic glares at Liquid, raises his hand, and snaps. Catwhoorg suddenly throws Liquid out of the room, into the depths of space.*

Lady Athyna: Sir! My idea is quite a bit better than that.

Celtic: ...Go on...

*Lady Athyna raises her hand with a card in it*
Lady Athyna: What I have here is the keycard to the Orbital Laser Platform...

Celtic: ...Do it.

Oh, we already nuked Paragon City. Silly super powered freaks are worse than cockroaches. I think they liked it. We got a fruit basket afterward.

Man, I think I'm the only person here who actually likes Auto Assault.

...And also, this thread should totally be renamed "What to do when not playing with CoX."

[/ QUOTE ]

Eh, don't really care one way or the other about AA. The whole buy into TR beta trick just feels like a cheap tactic.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, but that was only for the first 200 people to buy a subscription. Unless there is a new promotion I don't know about.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope. It just really struck me as bribery at the time...

Meh, I'll live. Now get rid of that dust crap. It's playing havoc with my sinuses.

You might want to organize several different angles for demorecording and screenshots. Just incase it's a close race. I'd offer but demorecord is quite over my head... stratosphere actually.

[/ QUOTE ]

They've also said I8 should only be 3 or 4 months behind I7. If I8 is mostly adding things like Mayhem Missions for heroes and the tech is already in game caue we're dealing with that set of bugs holding up I7, then yeah I8 shouldn't be held up too much.

*crosses fingers, tosses salt over left shoulder, makes the evil eye towards Austin, and tapes together a broken mirror hoping that didn't just jinx I8*

Oh yes. Thank you very much - whoever you are. Do you know Zeb? You have a lot in common. We miss him too.

If the only way I can get timely, new content in the game these days is through the "dedication" of off-hours coding by someone in his/her free time, one wonders if I8 will even release before the end of the year!


[/ QUOTE ]

Uhm... ok? I was just trying to offer another point of view but ok then. Never mind. I'll beat the drums so you guys can start whipping them more. M'kay?

[/ QUOTE ]
Your point was well taken. Careful with mine please? Besides - offering whips is dangerous this close to Memorial Day. Enjoy yours, Lady.

[/ QUOTE ]

Also in I7 is the whole AGEIA Physix thing, the Mayhem Missions, Recluse Victory, 10 more levels for villains... It's a ZOMGWTFBBQ update. There's a lot in there. One of the writers left, RV is a dynamic zone, when the villains take-over, it changes... the whole freakin zone changes right before your eyes. Same thing when the heroes win... It's wild. It must've been a nightmare to get right.

Yes, it sucks big time that it's being pushed back, again.... but it's worth it. Seriously worth it.

Some people spend most of their free time playing COX. And that is totally beyond the point. The point is when other devs were heading up issues, when they gave a release date, it was HARdly, and I strongly use the word Hardly ever late if late at all. Now all of a sudden this issue has been " Being released" for almost 2 months now..and what have we gotten nothing. I also want a bugg free I7, but at the same time....weve been after this for a long time and been testing it for a while now. Its hard to believe having a BF in the computers/internet field, that its taking this long to get these bugs fixed and I7 on live. I dont meant to offend the devs, I know they are trying very hard to get this issue done. But if it was this difficult they never should of given us a release date. GL devs and Ill be back in game when it releases. Cause Im damn bored.


[/ QUOTE ]

Uhm... just to counter the sentiment I'd like to thank the devs. Especially the designer of Mayhem Missions for working on them during his free time. Not at work sort of thing. The guy who designed the original PDP did it completely in his free time. So, to the dedication it takes to do something without getting paid, thanks guys.

Eh... guess I'm in a nit-picky mood.

[ QUOTE ]
No doubt. But if you don't know when something is going to be released, don't say "It'll be out this month".

Positron: "I7 to live is simply "this month"."


[/ QUOTE ]

He didn't say that.

[/ QUOTE ]

He didn't say that. He said he expected I7 to be live before the end of May. I read that and the rest of that particular paragraph that detailed problems with the AEGIA stuff, a writer quit and a thought "So, if nothing else goes wrong it'll hit live before the end of May."

Eh, YMMV.

[ QUOTE ]
I hate to burst everyone's bubble here - but I7 is not going up before the end of May. We have a few more things left to fix/tweak.

Well if anyone ever posts in the future that the devs hate powerleveling, I'm going to link this thread. Just incredible...

[/ QUOTE ]

Why? Because powergaming is similar to powerlevelling? Playing non-stop is an exploit somehow?

Dude, a powergamer can get more levels and more fun than a PL'er... I admit, I'm no powergamer, but that doesn't mean I'm going to accuse people of something -they haven't even done yet-.

[/ QUOTE ]

Four days to go from 40-45? Call it power gaming if you will, but I just think it's absurd to expect people to invest that much effort in such a short time into playing on a test server, which is actually supposed to help them debug their product. Four days to blast through 5 levels of the 40+ game, and the effort won't persist on the production server..

Call it what you will, but I call that absurd.

[/ QUOTE ]

I can see some teen spending the next 48 hours running that SF and a few really big teams. Seriously. I can also see some teen finding and using every exploit that exists. There's also some folks who call the test server home, they don't play on any other server.

I can see a lot of different scenarios. I choose not to lump everyone together under one heading.
