Marketing put me in a focus group and made me all blurry.

There was a little issue with the Knowledge Base article not displaying in its entirety. It has now been fixed and you should now be able to find answers to your questions.

I'm surprised it took this long! Heh, well done.

As Solitaire said, I played around with it when it was new, but I haven't used it since. But it's there if I want to, and I recognize that lots of people are enjoying it!

Just idly curious and some questions on character biographies:
What percentage of your characters have biographies? Do you usually write them at creation or after you've had a chance to get a feel for the character? Has a good biography saved a character you otherwise weren't that thrilled with?
2. At creation. Concept creates the character.
3. No.

I have two characters, my first 50s, that are duplicated on all servers.
They are only level 50 on Justice, and level 1s in Outbreak on all the others.

Because my girlfriend wanted to play.
And because I occasionally need a healbot for my solo-impaired badger character.

Quote:YES YES YES! That was so very cool, and it seemed so natural, much like a bilingual conversation would be where each side spoke their "own" language.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
But what I REALLY loved was the conversations with the aliens in District 9. The aliens speak in a language that's completely incomprehensible to the audience, and they have NO SUBTITLES for any of them. Some people seem to speak their language, and the aliens seem to understand English, which leads to very one-sided conversations with a lot of missing information, but they at least FEEL like conversation.

I vote for voice synthesizers--a sort of combination of Stephen Hawking and Optimus Prime. Who says they even have lungs/vocal cords/tongues capable of human speech?

I still don't know why the French captain of the Enterprise D spoke with a high English accent.
What accent would we use for the Rikti? As Mr_Grey pointed out, we already have dubbed text (word bubbles), so I vote they dub in Klingon.
What about the Devouring Earth? Since Americans are in love with Australian accents, I vote the DE come from down undah.
As to the earlier question about the Warriors, they can only speak in Noo Yoruk accents.

Dang, I'm too late! Seeing the baseball bat, and loving alliteration, my first thought was Louisville Leo (named after the famed American baseball bat, the Louisville Slugger).

Years ago, the first time I went to log on to a forum, it asked for a user name. As the cursor sat there, blinking at me, I typed in the first thing I thought of.
It's been my online name ever since.

Quote:I don't know what takes Jay so long to edit existing costumes and create new ones. All he's gotta do is...Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
Think I mentioned this earlier in the thread - the problem, for (and per) Jay, is time and demand. He didn't seem like he'd actually mind going back and doing them, but - well, just look at this thread, and the costume request thread, plus consider GR, the final booster pack, etc.
Whew, stopped myself just in time there.

Frankly, if I could degrade everything BUT named, mission-specific bosses, I'd do that without a second thought.

I'm a lefty, so I've remapped most everything to use the numpad. When I bought a new laptop, I made sure to get a wide one with a numpad.
In fact, Sellefane was watching me play once, and said something like, "Wow, you don't use your mouse much, do you?" Nope, I don't.

I actually see the most =new= players in The Hollows. Something about following the contact chain they're taught to follow. You finish up your first contact in Atlas or Galaxy pretty quickly and get sent to The Hollows, where you spend a lot more time.
TL;DR version: Try broadcasting in The Hollows.

Can a level 4 even GET Vanguard merits? Don't you have to be a member of Vanguard at level 35+ to do that?

Quote:I agree completely too.Originally Posted by GuyPerfect
The #1 change I'd make to missions spawns in general is to remove the +1 spawns whatsoever. If I'm fighting enemies of my own level, it's usually because I can't fight, say, enemies +1 to my level... so why do mission maps have about half the spawns at +1 of what the mission's level happens to be?

I'd also pay for CoH on the iphone too, but that's stretching it a bit i think lol.

Yes, ship raids are the way to go, but start by joining Vanguard at level 35. Then, EVERY Rikti you fight has a chance to drop a merit, whether street hunting in FF/PI or regular (non-RWZ) missions.
It's like filling a bucket with an eyedropper, sure, but every little merit helps, right?
