Come one come all fire/rads for a super team.

Ill/Rad is not really lots of ATs

Stone/?? tanks in granite can probably solo many AVs in the sense that they won't die...

Some AVs my mind/rads can solo others I can't even mez let alone damage.

Or just kick everyone who isn't one of your alts/trusted before you go AFK for long periods, won't win you many friends but its the safest way to run it IMO.

I would suggest you get help on the Vidiot Forums (or Badge-Hunter) as neither the map pack nor the icons are technically allowed by the devs, as both technically breach the EULA.

Basically looking for a super team of Fire/Rads to join/play with. Started two myself but to get the real deal need three plus, anyone interested on joining me (very low levels) or allowing my due to join you (any levels)?

:O Missed that bit...

Think Spad was looking at editing the files directly, and I would imagine you could look through the file for the bit you want and delete the rest, but I wouldn't know for sure.

Hmm with sleep hold and fear sleep does seem to be the overriding animation.

Thats not the issue, if I try and run the copy it crashes to a debug panel. (If I copy then verify all files that's when I get errors.) The fault seems to be that the larger the copied amount of data the likelier there is to be an actual error, the game is now 2.3Gb plus and over a network I just get errors too often.

This is overpowered and no longer relevant to the games of today.

I'm a touch puzzled by this line, why is CC no longer relevant? What changed?

[ QUOTE ]
If they are held or slept as well then that definitely takes priority and I think holds show over sleeps, confuse won't show as anything except cor the red glow.

[/ QUOTE ]
From the perspective of my mind controllers, sleep seems to override any other mezzed animation (maybe not fear can't remember), I doubt that any other sets change that.

I like to run at least two copies of the game on separate machines, I do this so I can run two or more characters simultaneously. I also get my internet through a system where my bandwidth is fairly limited, what I tend to do when a new patch comes out is download the patch through the updater and then copy the whole CoH directory from one PC to the next. However in recent times I am finding more and more often that once copied the copy has errors that then require patching to remove... once a new 1Gb patch needed to be applied.

I'm hoping that there is some form of 'offline' patching method that for instance a cyber cafe could use to patch many machines rapidly, if such a system does exist does anyone know how I may access it? Even if its a case of saving the temporary file that the updater downloads prior to patching to another location.

but the idea of "Bowling" as a power set could be interesting

[/ QUOTE ]
Hmm bowling as a superhero power - you know, that just might work!

[/ QUOTE ]
But what form of bowling? Personally I prefer carpet bowls or crown green bowling both of which I'm actually quite good at.

Four slots of Kinetic Crash give a mag 3 knockback resistance, the above mentioned IO only gives four.

[/ QUOTE ]Protection, that amount of resistance would be wothless.

Oops.

Get hold of TweakCoH that has a built in player for Demo files, never having used a shortcut to play mine that is all the help I can offer.

Wouldn't play 'football' anyway... now hockey (not ice) that might be a good deal of fun and if all else fails you can always beat your opponent to a bloody pulp with the stick.

As I also pointed out it has uses. I figured when I specced it into my semi farming fire/kin builds that I wouldn't even have it on the tray but have found since that point that in a number of occasions it can be quite useful. Body pulling isn't the easiet of things to do when my damage powers either stun (Fissure) cause a fear effect (mobs run away from Hot Feet) or in the case of the rest of my attacks are stunned/held/immobilised/etc... Repel lets me run to a mob, knock it on it's bottom, thus making me safer from attack, agro said mob then run round a corner. I have pulled.

It can be used for fun, though I know many don't treat this game as fun any more...

It can even be used a: 'OMG I've pulled way too many X and they're all beating on me.

And while I could trade repel in for a greater power, I don't have enough spare slots to slot that greater power to be much greater use. As such it would probably be a power that I hardly ever used anyway.

Just implement auto logout even for those on TFs. Add an auto kick timer to missions that have been completed so that even if the leader has gone AFK in a mission he will get kicked to the zone where the normal AFK time-out will work. The only way a leader could get round all that is if he/she physically rested something heavy on their keyboard, at which point it could be said that most methods of remove said leader could fail as it is more a case of griefing than just being AFK.

I use repel.

Knockback protection IO = 15,000,000 plus.

Four slots of Kinetic Crash give a mag 3 knockback resistance, the above mentioned IO only gives four. What is more it can be fun in the right situation and never needs to be switched on for the knockback protection. What is more all four slots can be filled for less than a million.

Last Ninja (extended) - Instant Remedy - Ben Daglish here...

Would be my overall theme, seeing as it what I was listening to when I came up with my main's name.

As for the rest I don't really have a theme as such except for my duos where the track the includes the lyrics: 'Two heads are better than one double the pleasure babe; triple the fun...' Though I only know that little bit really and that is remembered from Bill and Ted... (don't know the composer or artist, I'd like to )

The base is worth 96,000,000+.... My base would look that good if I had that sort of prestige.

Surely the 10 seconds it takes to type password > select Server > select toon, isnt really that much bother is it?

I do understand where you are coming from as in WoW there is instant log to Toon screen when in a safe area, but still!

[/ QUOTE ]
Well not until the game crashes when you select server again... like it does every so often.

[/ QUOTE ]

So add an extra minute for varification if needed .. hardly a big deal!

[/ QUOTE ]
Only takes a minute if you have a decent machine perhaps, it takes me somewhat longer. To the point that if I know I'm going to log back in I quit to desktop and restart the client.

What I really want is a /quittologin command... and I know that isn't that hard to add.

Food?

Only pansies need food.

Besides you could call it the Hero's Diet.

pvp style bank job/safe gaurds where you can sign up at a contact then a little bit of match making magic (team size/lvl matching)and boom PVP with a little more purpose.
.
thus heroes feel heroic and villians feel a little meaner

Could be using the arena system, or even put in the arena itself.
Adding missions and objectives to the arena maps.
xp for PvP doesn't get my vote, though

[/ QUOTE ]

yeah that was an after thought really as incentive for lower lvls

[/ QUOTE ]
If they add XP rewards to PvP those of us who don't care about actually earning our rewards would abuse the system.

The physica might be in part client side but you can certainly play something similar to football with mobs and knock back powers (eg Rephellion), the actual rag doll physics of the mob is client side however the mob's actual position when they land is server side, or you wouldn't be able to play the game normally.

Its one of the ideas I like about the net connected Bios in EVE, I can write a decent length Bio in game and then link it to a more detailed story online. Don't think we're likely to get that in CoH but I'd still like that sort of option.

@Turjan
Loved that murder story (drabble?) is it yours?
