  1. Maybe something to do with that one day of the year where you celebrate love...and chocolate...lots and lots of chocolate...
  2. Seriously? I have been playing this game on a 2 gig and now a 4 gig memory computer and the market never influenced whether I crashed or not, hell from the sound of it people crash all the time....is it really that bad or am I just lucky that in the past three years my crashes are to countable on two hands
  3. Short answer: No
    Long Answer: Hell No

    And what Samuel said.
  4. Yeah I pretty much agree with everyone. /signed.

    Well, at least he could cross off something from his To do list.

    Hover w/ 1Fly SO + Swift w/ 1 Fly SO: 19.2 mph

    Thus Bonuses to Hover....
    Fly SO in Hover = +2.4 mph to Hover
    Swift = +1.9 mph to Hover
    Fly SO in Swift = +0.7 mph to Hover

    And thus the value of 3-slotting, taking ED into account:
    3 Fly SOs in Hover = +6.8 mph
    3 Fly SOs in Swift = +1.9 mph

    So let's say you 3-slot Hover with Fly SOs, your Hover will be: 21.0 mph.
    Add Swift and one Fly SO in the default slot of Swift, your Hover will be: 23.6 mph (that's +2.6 mph)
    Two more slots in Swift will bring it up to: 24.8 (that's + 1.2 mph).
    Six-slotting both Hover and Swift with Fly SOs = 26.2 mph (that's +1.4 mph over 3 slotting both)

    Therefore: For increasing Hover speed, extra slots in Swift aren't worth it.

    Note that Quickness in the Super Reflexes powerset offers the same bonuses as Swift and stacks with Swift.



    And now, for Fly:

    Fly Speed: 45.2 mph
    Fly w/ 1 Fly SO in Fly = 51.7 mph
    Fly w/ 1 Fly SO in Fly + Swift = 53.6 mph
    Fly w/ 1 Fly SO in Fly + Swift w/ 1 Fly SO in Swift = 54.3


    Thus the Bonuses to FlySpeed...
    Fly SO in Fly = +6.5 mph to Flight Speed
    Swift = +1.9 mph
    Fly SO in Swift = +0.7 mph to Flight Speed

    And thus the value of 3-slotting, taking ED into account:
    3 Fly SOs in Fly = +13.4 mph
    3 Fly SOs in Swift = +2.0 mph

    • Just two SOs in just Fly will take you to 58.2 mph, which is just .4 mph short of the fly cap.

    • Fly with one SO and Swift with one SO is 4.3 mph short of the fly cap.

    • Two level 50 IOs in Fly will hit the fly cap.
    Thanks, really useful information

    Wouldn't that alter the rating of the game?
  10. Recently with my new hero Power Bug I did some AE archs till level 10 to get inf to buy rocketboots and insect wings and after that I started with contacts. Montague gave me Carla in Skyway and the first thing she did(I was level 11 at that point) was sending me to The Hollows to talk to Wincott...

    *sigh*
  11. I think that would be my scrapper on Defiant named: Foxclaw.

    No, I don't know what I was thinking when I made him...I like foxes and it is a claws/something scrapper seemed like a logical name.


    I also have two toons which I made for friends of mine: Super Layla and Super Kimmie...but those I never played(it was more to make hero versions out of them and show them the screenshots)....and are quite dusty.
  12. For me ninja run makes the early levels so much more enjoyable and at later levels it is just a really helpful and cool looking power. I don't use it much in battle but in between or for the first strike it makes a real difference.

    For some characters it even freed up two power slots at 12 and 14 which I really like.

    Not that I really think City of Heroes is a stale game though.
  13. You're as ugly as a Rikti Monkey in negligé!
  14. But what was the name...now I'm curious :P
  15. No...just...no...they aren't called veteran rewards for nothing...otherwise they would just be booster packs...
  16. Guys...take it to pm please. Really not the place for it.

    Go get some set bonuses, you cheapskate.
    Shouldn't BaB's be retconned into Willpower...I mean how on earth can he be invulnerable...or his is tanktop made of bulletproof material?

    Well overall the ninja run looks great (during the run animation).
    It's just the part when they are standing still that does not look right, it looks weird to me.
    That's why I turn it off when not running.
  19. Got Coltan Claw yesterday(Claws/Inv scrapper).(idea being a man who's skin is made from a coltan like metal...got it from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles). Just like how both words start with a C.
  20. Well you get the full game but no...no special benefits for people who buy the game. There are a few.

    Although if you buy the Architect Edition you get one free super booster(magic or cyborg) or if you get the mac edition you get Valkyrie costume items.
  21. Because it's fun?

    As for your other questions, no, no and no...you don't get more xp, you can't play it offline, as it is an MMO, which stands for Massive Multiplayer Online and as with most MMO's(not all of them mind you) this one is subscription based.
