  1. Over a year ago, I concocted a symphonic tribute to CoH called 'Summon the Heroes' and slapped it on Youtube. I had entered it in the Creative Genius competition back when we still had the EU forums. It won me 2 months of game time, which I was mightily pleased about.

    These past few days I've been working on another one. This time I was inspired paradoxically by the rather uninspiring CoH Theme/Login music. I felt it lacked punch and any sense of epicness. I figured I could give it some bombast and grandeur.

    So I present 'Rise of the Heroes' - http://soundclick.com/share?songid=9122597

    My first CoH piece 'Summon the Heroes' - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrO-tHQONd8
  2. It's a well known issue and is in the list of fixes in the next patch.
  3. Epic, Patron and Ancillary Pool power tintability. Maybe even Vet and Accolade powers too.

    Union Costumes!

    Here's a small sample of some of my favourite cossies.


    Heroes


    Villains

    *Note. I have adjusted the gamma on these images as some of them were a bit dark.
  5. I'm having the exact same issue. Every time I pick an object/contact/mob, the preview animation seems to cripple my framerate. It then becomes an infuriating minigame of timing my clicks to each frame in order to stop the animation.
  6. The level of the GM should be inconsequential as GM mechanics still apply in AE. (see http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Giant_Monster )

    A possible exeption to this might be the various Devouring Earth critters, who are classed as just 'Mosters', rather than 'Giant Monsters'.
  7. I tend to build for effectiveness first, then tweak the RP concept to fit. A little imagination can go along way.
  8. Twas indeed an epic event with even more epic lag. I CTD'd 9 times, got a dozen merits, a couple of badges and a swanky title.
    However dispite the lag and crashes, watching my teammates fall one by one till only I remained to tank 6 GM's on my lonesome for a few minutes made my night.

    A huge thank you to Mod_08 for a fantastic time.
  9. I can haz padding?

    Seriously though, it boggles my brain that these AE babies can endure the same mindless repetitive mission over and over and over and over and over and over and .............*slips into a coma*






    *wakes up*......over and over and over and again.
  10. A bucketful of gratz to Paragon Studios. Long may the wind flap your capes.

    This appears to be the case as now I can log in with no problems. Cheers peeps.
  12. Righty, due to the lack of I16 open beta EU side, I decided to grab an NA trial account in order to get onto the NA Test server (I know I'll be limited to the character creator only). However, after several hours of client downloading, and checking to make sure the updater is named correctly and the shortcut has the " -test" on the end I attempt to login and get the 'username or password is incorrect' message. "No biggie" I think to myself, I'll just change the password on my account. I do this and wait half an hour or so. I try again with the new password. Same message. So I rinse and repeat. Same message. I've tried all 3 passwords to no avail.
    I'm at a loss peeps. I have an NA trial, the NA updater, it all works except my password(s).
    Another thing that's weird is that my last password change didn't seem to register with the PlayNC account management page. I can log in using the 2nd password, not the 3rd.
  13. I saw one a few days ago which for some unfathomble reason had me questioning my bladder control.
    "Imma firin' ma p33nz0r!!"
  14. If for whatever reason its not fixed after trying the above solutions you can still monitor your health, endurance and xp via the Combat Attributes.
  15. I've always been a huge fan of your work. I'm subbed to your youtube channel and always enjoy the work you put out.
  16. I was thinking also that this could be an opportunity for those without travel powers (or at least without the second power in the pool) to get vehicles such as Heromobiles or somesuch.

    Gale = Fail

    When I first rolled my Elec/Storm corr the recharge on the first couple of elec powers was unpleasantly long thus gale made a good chain filler. True, it does sod all damage, but it keeps mobs at bay until your primaries recharge.

    Force Bolt I've found to be a good 'Get off me!' power, especially for MMs.
  18. After my PC's hard drive died (still waiting on a new one) I figured I'd download the mac client so I could still play something while I wait.
    My iMac is a few years old and runs Tiger 10.4.11. The problems I'm having are mouse related. The biggest problem is (after several hours of head scratching) is the cursor is offset by a huge margin, making it nigh impossible to determine where I'm clicking. Another issue is that even after logging in and selecting a toon, I cannot make the character turn right. Whichever direction I turn the mouse, he just just spins left. As yet I haven't been able to play the game properly on my Mac yet. It's high irritating.
  19. Farewell and good luck Alex. May the forces of evil get confused on the way to your house.

    Self Destruct...

    I think a suitable penalty for post defeat activation could be being sent straight to the hospital, giving no opportunity to rez in the field.
  21. Blasters: Making dirt chewin' look good.

    Tankers: Tis but a scratch.

    Brutes: Don't make me angry... on second thought...

    Dominators: I know what you did last summer.

    Kheldians: No legs but still kickass!

    Masterminds: Why should I do all the work?

    50+ mil, NO TY.

    The maximun price of generic IO's for me is the crafting table price. I won't pay any more than that for them. Of course, being the cheapskate I am I'll hunt for a bargain on WW/BM.
    Many IO sets have become obscenely expensive since the release of I13. I'm hoping it's just a market fluctuation but I won't hold my breath.
  23. If you have the Pocket D teleport or the WW/BM teleport you can use it to exit.
  24. I don't even play keyboards. That track was hand sequenced.
