  1. For me, this has been all since the last patch, not since I17.

    That is, when they actually try to load. I've been kicked to the log in screen, kicked to desktop, and I've forced the game to shut down on many occasions all while waiting for the "loading" screen to change over to the progress-bar loading screen that never happens.
    Same. Also noticed it seems to happen to the entire team; been seeing a lot of 2-4 people on a team all crashing together.

    The devs love of constantly adding more content to the blow through levels.

    We just kept running after that point. It was a bad night for an Mo run, too... server kept lagging up, as I heard a bunch of us complaining about lag and long load times for missions. Anyone else been having issues like that?
    It's been like that the past few days, regardless of the task/strike force.

    And they'll all be level 30 and below...

  7. Bah. You could have done that yourself.

    One of the miners/laborers in my old company was Chico. Huge Mexican with a giant mustache. Nicest guy you've ever met, but LORD was mountain of a man. Guy was built like a linebacker. He once took out one of his own infected teeth with a pair of pliers and a bottle of tequila.

    You know, for duh reasons.
    Wait, are you quitting? :0
  12. You died like four times.

    I'm up for it tomorrow night.
  13. I've never seen this before. Is this a new bug from one of the recent patches or I17?

    Isolators?

    Currently redside, maybe 43ish?

    For those unfamiliar with the group, Isolators was started shortly after badges were introduced to the game. This was in the dark, dreary times before global chat, global tells, or even coalition chat. Back then, the only way to find a person from the forums was by chance or pre-arranged meeting.

    The Isolators project was started so the people who post here in Victory could actually meet and play together, so that you could have some fun with the people you chat with online. Everyone made a new character for this new group. This is an once a week supergroup that plays every 8 pm Wednesdays.

    When the vast majority of the group hits 50, we start a new run of the group, switching between CoH and CoV between runs.

    You don't have to be an active forum poster to join, through it's encouraged. At the very least, be a member of the community; run missions, join in advertised task forces, etc.

    If you're interested in joining up this run, please feel free to post interest here. Everyone is welcome.

    A few notes:
    Everyone is welcome.
    Not everyone is welcome.
    This is an once a week sg. If the group ends up at level 20 at the end of the night, please don't show up next week at level 25.
    If you're a few levels behind due to playing less, don't sweat it, but try to catch up on your own or with a task force if you can.
    We play 8 pm eastern on Wednesdays.
  15. Had this problem last night. Friend also had it Sunday.

    Bots would stop moving, attacking, or responding to commands.
    Bots were still tp'able.
    If you dismiss the bots and zone, they would come back/respawn.
    If you dismiss them and resummon, the same bots would come back. Upgraded and... Unmoving.
    Zoning wouldn't fix it.
    Logging on and off wouldn't fix it.
    Closing client would fix it.

    After the 3rd restart last night I game up on my mastermind and switch to playing my widow.
  16. Not sure if it's based on time or damaged done. Assuming time. My only complaint is the near requirement of having a mastermind. Really dislike forced team make up.
  17. I know some people intentionally trigger the ambushes then retreat, just because it's less pain in the rear.

I was rather disappointed when my room clearing power only took out a few guys... it's not very helpful if it only takes out the target cap or whatever. Is that a new bug?

    I'll have to try it with you again sometime... that's a pretty fun SF, though I don't like having to find each of the four patrons in the last mission. I wouldn't want to fight all four at once, I suppose, but having to hunt for each on the map is kind of weird.
    More retarded then weird. Not unexpected, we wiped on that room and fought our way back in. I'm told that the temp powers now have a target max of 16, which limits their effectiveness.

    And yeah, hunting down and leading in the AV's is a bit annoying. And retarded.
  20. Hoax.

    He'll join your task force then bail on the last mission!
  21. Hmmm.

    See, this is what I'm curious on. Is this bugged? I've gotten streaks like this in the past (ie, got 2-4 of the same awesome recipe), but all when making the rolls at the same time, not spread out over days.

  22. Since Friday night, I've made around 10 random recipe rolls at level 50. Two red side, rest blue side.

    I have gotten four LoTG+7.5's and two Numina+regens from this.

    I think I'm bugged.

    Harro!

    Suggest joining some of the more populated global channels, Victory Forum and Victory Badges 2009. Good places for game discussion and teaming.

  25. It's gonna suck, you know. It's gonna suck hard. Why bother seeing that in the theater? If there's going to be that much sucking going on, you may as well do it in the comfort of your own home.
