    How do you know if you're reaching your target demographic?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Gee, if there was only a hit TV show about super heroes that they could pretty much be a goldmine as a target audience for. I see your point, but this is one year that this aspect kind of fails. Before this year, it's dead on.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Or a television channel the focuses on video games. There are lots of places to use targetted ads that would have a positive affect.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You mean that channel I avoid because, frankly, it brings up too much irritation at the death of a another, much better channel?

    Myspace costs time, only. and is 24/7.

    A TV ad would cost time and money to make the commerical.

    And approximately $171,000 for a 30 second slot during heroes. Once.

    Well......the money that pays them comes from the COX fund so indirectly....Yes. Better to have hired another person to work on the numerous problems that haven't been addressed in years or to use the existing page and advertise on Myspace.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You, Centurion, are forgetting one huge detail, and a smaller one.

    The developers are from Cryptic. The Community Reps (including who did the myspace) are from NC Soft.

    The money might all be from the CoX Pie, but effort for the myspace was paid for by the NCSoft slice of pie, not Cryptic's, and it's is Cryptic's slice that pays for developers.

    The smaller one - Do you really think the effort (in dollars) put to the myspace would higher a developer even for a week, much less an amount of time that would allow a new hire to learn how to read, use, add to, and finally, Fix the system? Or even the first two/three?

    I still think they're missing some advertising tricks. I understand there's this service called "AOL" that has "rooms" set aside where you can "chat" about your favorite things. ZOMG! Why isn't there an official AOL CoH chat room?!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It would probably be less effective than the MySpace. It would either turn into an OOG global chat channel, a powers, etc chat, or some combo of the two.

    Or OoG RO chat.

    People have been asking you guys to update the CoH/CoV main page to be updated since I first started coming to these forums. Instead of doing that you're going to spend time creating a MySpace page.

    I know you guys want advertisement and more players, but does CoH/CoV really need more players of the type that typically haunt MySpace?

    "Sorry, don't have time to fix the Cathedral of Pain. Too busy responding to friend's requests for the MySpace page."

    Everyone knows that Sexxy Jay could fix the CoP trial any time he wants to. He'd just sexxify it up and it would work perfectly.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Still doesn't impinge on the webdevelopers, but if Sexxy Jay did the myspace, MySpace would become cool do to rubbed off sexxy.

    Gmail is feature-lite and a distant third in the market.

    And he wasn't necessarily saying Gmail is the best - but he was saying it changed web-based email. And it has.

    Or even Legacy Chain. We need more Legacy Chain.

    QR

    You can choose to bind a key to enable your screenshot ui, plus there is also a command you can use to take the screeny with your UI enabled but only for that picture. I'm sure someone can chime in here with the command.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I like to throw something like "ctrl+Print Screen" to toggle the UI
  9. [ QUOTE ]
    [ QUOTE ]
    Ok , so what is the UI again?...I have taken alot of screenies but, I never got into the options to mess with that stuff, And also what do you meen by ( PlayNC Master Account name
    - Game account name(global?) What is the diffrence?
    Thanks.



    Hello?

    Hello?

    Is this thread broketed? An answer would be nice...I wana send in my screenie!

    hello?

    Well I sent mine in...hope I did it right

    PlayNC Master Account Name - This is the name of the account that gets your credit card info/game card numbers. This is the account you put game codes into to be able to play them.

    Game Account Name - This is the name that you log into the game with - it may or may not be the same as your Play NC account (especially for people with multiple accounts). Thus the request to include both this and the PlayNC Master name.

    Global - what the Global Chat system identifies you as in game - @Leech for me, for example.

    EDIT - And next time, when asking a question give more time. You waited an hour - and most of us are getting ready for work/going to work/at work/even doing work at the time you asked.

    And ArticSun is busy too

  14. I too would like to snag some of those nice badges.

    Also, my 50 is on Justice, the OTHER home server

    Mainly playing on Victory atm.

    And next time, include something like "Nomad" for server choice, as some people really don't have a home server.

    I know a couple people with fifties on more than three servers, for example.

    7) We do not talk about #7

    But while your here Posi, please tell me you know about this thread. Please /e puppydogeyes

    As for #2 just add No guarantees in the post and people can't hold it against you.
    "We're looking into it, no guarantees though." problem solved but this should only be used for really big issues.
    Like this one.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They have tried that before. Both for reason #2 and #6.

    They still get ripped a new one because people will take anything said in the most "it probably won't happen ever/now/etc" tone/way/included disclaimer as the devs promising to do such.

    In other words, #2 & #6 are the fault of the community (as a whole).

    Hamidon aside, there are many, many foes in the game that are still using either pre-release and/or un-nerfed versions of player powers. Foes have always been able to side-step the rules that players are forced to abide by.

    Well I see the idea but I think it's just F-in' lazy of the Devs not explain why he can now hit you though PS.
    I think a better fix would've been to just make him ignor anything that's PSed. PAs included. That would solve the tanking prob.

    Personally, I've always felt that phased things should be able to hit phased things. Then they could add some phased out mitos to hami, ones who can only hit phased targets

    I like this idea much better, personally.

    If you don't need shivans and warburg bombs, then you don't need them and you should be backing the call to have them removed.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Not necessarily.

    Do I think they are needed for every hard encounter? No - but they do help when you solo.

    Never seen one (shivan or nuke) used on a team larger than 4 unless true @#$ hit the fan and we have something like four 8man spawns on us

    Certain self heal powers are tagged to not allow outside healing buffs. Reconstruction is such a power.

    General Rule:
    If your heal also grants resistance to toxic, it won't benefit from +Heal buffs.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    There is absolutely nothing to indicate or suggest this in anything in-game to the layman who doesn't read GameFAQs or the forums/website.

    This has been a problem with the development of this game since the beginning. It's a shame this type of thing has NOT been taken care of yet. Please update the power descriptions for ALL powers affected by this.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The catch is until now, THERE HAS BEEN NO NEED.

    The only non-self heal with Toxic resist I can think of is the /Poison one - and MMs don't get power boost.

    I can't think of any classes with a self heal w/ toxic resistance that also has power boost - the only global, non-enhancement "+heal" effect I can think of.
  23. The AV changed talked about only affects farmable AVs.

    Soooo...it can't be slotted in Health (resist: sleep)?

    I'd like it confirmed that it will work with Dull Pain, Instant Healing and Fast Healing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's not that the IOs cannot be slotted into the powers.

    It is the fact that the powers with toxic resist were coded in such a way that the only thing that affects them are enhancements slotted into them directly.

    Set bonuses aren't enhancements, they are global bonuses/buffs.

    EDIT : In addition, I doubt that the heals that provide status protection or resistances are affected by this as _Castle_ did specifically call out toxic - and that is the only /damage/ resistance I can think of tied to a heal. And damage resistances, not mez resistances, are what are improvable via bonuses/enhancements.
