Quote:So what you're saying is that game cards are not the same as time cards...Originally Posted by Aggelakis
NOTE: Game cards work exactly the same as time cards, if you're just using them to add time to your account.
The only way game cards work differently is that you can also use them to start an account, and they come with a 30 day (real time) flight jet pack.
Time cards cannot be used to start an account. You need a retail code for that. -
Ohsnap!Ohsnap!Ohsnap!Ohsnap!

Just so you're aware:
From the NCSoft Support Page
Although they are labeled for specific games, PlayNC/NCsoft game time cards are usable on any of our games. However, you must use a game time card specific to the territory of your game account. You can use a City of Heroes, City of Villains, Lineage, Lineage II, or generic PlayNC/NCsoft Game Time Card for any of those games. For example, you can use:
- A City of Heroes Game Time Card on a Lineage II game account
- A Lineage II Game Time Card for a City of Villains game account
- A City of Villains Game Time Card for a Lineage game account
- Any combination therein
NOTE: Game cards are not the same as game time cards. Game cards can only be used as indicated on the packaging.

Quote:Less than 5% of the time. Last night, I joined the first PuG I'd been on in probably 3-4 weeks.Originally Posted by Psychoti
In an average gaming week:
1) How often do you PuG instead of grouping within your SG or friends?
Depends on the group I'm with. If it's the RP group then 1% or less. When I'm hanging with my non-RP buds then maybe 10% of the time.Quote:2) How often do you group with friends and fill the rest of the group with PuGs?
Well, the last two PuG's that I recall went fairly well, people seemed to know their character's and what to do.Quote:3) How often do your PuG members do what you feel needs to be done without being told to do so?
Maybe 10-15% of the time I'll mention a tactic, if what someone is doing is always putting them or the team a bad situation.Quote:4) How often do you find yourself telling PuG members what you feel they should be doing (for the good of the current team/session)?
Well, If I remember to do so, perhaps 1 in 6.Quote:5) How often do you find yourself adding PuG members to your friends/global friends, and if those lists are full, using other methods of remembering them?
I haven't seen any in a while. But then I don't PuG all that often.Quote:6) How often do you group with complete jerks in a PuG? -
This is a riot.
The people I normally team with are off playing DnD and probably still will be when I get home from work. I might be able to get it a PuG or two when I get home.
I think /petionable would be another likely square.
Edit: Well, got on a PuG first thing last night, 6 players. Other than they controller dying a few time, I'm afraid I couldn't check a single square... -
Quote:No, Sam, you are not the only one.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
While I completely agree with everything stated here, I can't believe I'm the only one who wants MORE UPPER ARMS! Again, doesn't anybody feel like an Organic Armour upper arm to be used with, say, Robotic Arms 3 would be really cool?
^^ ThisQuote:Beyond that: David, if you're reading this, can you PLEEEASE see about giving us the ability to use basic patterns that glow like this? Please? I would KILL to have the ability to use, say, Isles or Tribal and make it glow. Please? 
I'd rather be able to apply it to any head.Quote:And, finally, the glowing eyes head (Organic Armour head) - can we have either a more human, cleaner version of that face, and/or a version of the Glowing Eyes head with eyes that actually glow? -
What annoys me is when my character goes running off for no apparent reason, and wont stop no matter what button(s) I bang on. Typically only occurs when there are mobs about. -.-

Gratz everyone on the Hami beat-down.

I'm not a PvP'r but this sounds like a cool idea.
Something I've thought of while working on a MArc would be the ability to combine MA and the Arena. There are times when I'd rather the foe(s) in the MA missions were "the real deal." -
Quote:While I may 'oops' a couple of times over multiple missions, when someone asks not to be SB'd I usually have to problem remembering to skip them. If you never ask then odds are, that they will always forget to skip shielding you.Originally Posted by Eva Destruction
Yes, I am referring exactly to being softcapped to all positions. For some reason my /SR Scrapper is always the one who ends up on teams with Colds. I don't tell them not to buff me because I realize that for some people remembering who to skip is a pain, but I do not need the shields in that case, and I wish I could just dismiss them.

In the lead-up to live, we'll definitely be talking more about the creation of the Mutant Pack. But basically, mutation's all about biological change, and we wanted to give players two distinct flavors of that and to make the parts as broadly usable as possible.
Bioluminescent represents the change-from-within concept of posthumanity: with these parts, your hero or villain is clearly changing at a genetic level and doing so in style--with tintable glows that really pop in dark environments.
Organic Armor represents change-from-without. With these parts, you can acheive a carapace/exoskeleton look, as if your character is growing a new skin or shell or perhaps being taken over by a symbiotic entity. And for added visual punch, you get the tintable glows here too.
As a set, the Mutant pack gives you the abilty to make new heroes or villains to fit a fairly wide range of aestheic types: alien-corrupted, hell-spawn, genetic freak--all of that's doable with this set. And with 2 tails, wings, and sword, there's a cherry on top.
Here're some shots of the tails that you'll be getting in the next build, by the way:
Bioluminescent tail
Organic Armor tail
A monster-themed pack is something we can look into after Going Rogue, but that's a different set.
Until then, enjoy all the new toys!
Now that I've gotten over my initial euphoria...
That's just it, all of that can be done without buying a single booster pack. I think people (me included) were expecting more non-human features, ie. heads, tails, legs, etc. I love the new armours, glowies (though if they can only be applied to specific tops/bottom I will be disappointed,) but I was really hoping for what many of the others have mentioned.Quote:Originally Posted by Endlessly
Hmmm... Maybe I'm just not too familiar with most mutant characters in fiction. Most I think of have mutations like metal claws, laser eyes, metal skin. Generally the less 'human' looking mutants tend to have different colored skin or something exotic not in the way of animal heads.
All I know is I'd be a bit disappointed if the mutant pack -was- an animal booster pack. -
"Let me see if I got this straight. You're saying that if I can hit you on the glowie on you chest, that I'll get a surprise. What? Like Gummi Ghouls ®?"

Happy Hatching Day, LJ!

Yeah, the whole rooting during 'accepting' and fortune, can be detrimental to say the least.

If it's an inactive account, the unclaimed email will be bounced back after 30 days. But yeah, I'd send another email asking if the item could be returned.

Quote:You've been around longer than I have and I don't consider myself a "log-time CoH veteran."Originally Posted by Mantic
I notice that all of you guys responding are long-time CoH veterans. I certainly respect your knowledge of the game, but I wonder if you really grasp my perspective on the game.
As I mentioned, though I've been playing for a few years (since March 2007, off and on)...
I would consider throwing any money towards a 3rd party guide to CoX a waste. Especially when I can find it for myself in ParagonWiki, find it in the forums, or ask my fellow forumites if those two don't provide what I am looking for. The knowledge of the players is amazing, the gall of someone attempting to sucker people into paying for something that is readily available for free is equally amazing. -
Happy Hatching Day, Archiviste, StormVyxen, VA Belle!!

Thank you, Ghost Falcon. Didn't have a problem for the rest of the evening.

And they're back...
...but for how long...? -
And they're down again.

If you find that adjusting the graphics sliders are causing your game to crash, you can usually run the game in Safe Mode (it's that check box next to the 'I Accept' button on the second page of the launcher,) and adjust them.

Character Naming Policy
At one point is were characters under level 35 that were effected. That was changed to level 5 and under.
Here's the original Announcement that the info on ParagonWiki was taken from.
