  1. I hate it when my character gets stuck running, when I didn't even hit the 'R' button, I can change direction and even move backwards, but as soon as I release one of those keys he/she starts running forward again. Typically pounding on my keyboard in frustration fixes the problem... -.-

    Good News: As of yet, none of the recalled products have included the GTX 260m, 280m, or 285m.

    Other than that, make sure you keep the air vents cleaned out and you should be fine.
    Good to know, I've blown up my laptop twice so far. At least the first time was covered by my HP warranty.

    I'll have to do some research.

    Edit: Is the recall just for Sony, because I know from countless forum discussion HP laptops with nVidia had the same problem.
  3. CoH has two .exe files, one for the updater and one for the game itself. Make sure you allow both of them access in Net Nanny.
  4. Can we get some nice restaurants/pubs. Every time I'm wonder around Nerva, I see some really nice outdoor seating. Yet the only 'social' indoor atmosphere (leaving certain aspects aside,) are the bars Pocket D which have all the atmosphere of a college town dance club the morning after a weekend party. The Tiki Club is nice, but it is not accessible to everyone.

    Seating is lacking or unusable, the place is never clean and most of the bar stools have been stolen.

    It'd be nice if there were several locations throughout the zones that are restaurants on the outside, and if you click on the door, you enter someplace like this...

    enri, you know you're likely to get burned at that stake for talking logic in the forums, unless you weight more than a duck...
  6. Don't forget Procs, say slotting holds/immobs/stuns/etc in your T1/T2 Archery powers, which recharge very quickly.

    The box will be shipped to me, as I ordered it through the online store.
  8. Last night, I was teaming with a friend, we both RP, and were running around IP taking on Banished Pantheon. Anyway, I got a tell from a recent global friend to team and informed him that I was currently RP'ing. "No, problem."

    I'm on my Earth/Rad Controller and he's on his Tank, we come up against an Avalanche Shaman, who plants Earthquake right under my feet, which knocks me down all of once. I plant an EQ under his feet and hit backspace.

    Global friend<--: "Take some of your own medicine, Shaman."
    GF: "If that's the extent of your RP then I think it's okay that you team with us."
    GF<--: "Yeah, that was supposed to be OOC to my teammate... >.<"

    /facepalm

    I know the gladiator shoulder piece was mentioned a couple of times but what would be awesome is being able to swap the shoulders of the shoulder piece. Call it gladiator - left and gladiator - right.
    By Gladiator shoulder pieces do you guys mean these:

    For me, it's about the box. I gots to have it. Now I just need the Original City of Heroes (not the DVD Ed) and the Bootleg.
  11. Simply put, they are slotable at level 1, once your character reaches level 21, they become in-effective.

    where is Pocket D?
    I believe it's in Galaxy City, behind the Admin building.

    If you don't have the VIP pack, then the easiest way to get to Pocket D, it in Kings Row. Look at one of the green dots on your map. Will be west of the Tram.
  13. Belated Happy Canada Day!

    Indeed.
  15. Gratz on the art from BAKArt, CH. He really does deliver.

    Oh, and I had a great time taking out Rikti Generators with you last night.
  16. It is a known bug and I think it had been fixed for at least a little while, I do remember reporting it during Demon Summoning Beta. For me it doesn't happen consistently, but when it does it will not stop respawning until I move.
  17. I came across an image in SexyJay's thread where someone had posted an image of a necklace that appeared to be bone. I have to be able to find it, but I think it was available back in Original Beta, the current options for what can be worn around the neck are vary limiting.

  19. One of the steps should ask you which account you want to apply the code to. If not, and it seems to keep pointing you to your EU account, us the drop-down menu at the top-left of the NCSoft store, to switch to English(US.)

    Hopefully that will show the US products.

    I know there are a other EU players that play on the US servers, and have previously posted links or the appropriate steps for getting the US version of the NCSoft store, perhaps they can stop in.
  20. After everything Colleen's already been through, I'm hoping the team can get to her in time to save her.

    And Cerise, poor Cerise, born into a destiny she didn't ask for or want.
  21. My question is what's the connection between Transfusion and SB?

    And as to the OP's last comment, all I see is an excerpt of a chat log, I'm not really seeing an expressed opinion (excluding the names.)

  23. I'm currently at work so I cant actually check, but my guess would be under Unique - Outdoor. (Called Atlas Park - Ruined.)
