  1. Bovine's back!

    Your masterpiece is still around. We wondered the same thing on Union Chat not weeks ago, and one of us ran to the nearest AE to check.

    Welcome back!
  2. To the OP: very funny. Had a good laugh myself.

    Now this. I read this. Again. Again. Then laughed even more.
  3. If it's any help, come i21 villains will start in Mercy (as in the town). With the black market, an Arbiter, an AE building, and a new branch of Facemaker, the area containing the trainer may well be a good place to start this kind of thing up.
  4. I love the music that plays throughout. It really sounds like the soundtrack to us taking control of Praetoria's power, and I love how it ramps up in intensity as we get further on. It sticks in my head and makes me want to play the trial again for the atmosphere, so nicely done.

    I'm sure others hate it, as the in-game music I like tends to get muted by others, but I would love more music like this in trials, even added retro-actively to the BAF and Lambda.
  5. What about using the billboards to advertise player AE arcs? People already make banners advertising their arcs, so what if they were to submit them in specific sizes and have them chosen out to go on display for a month or so?
  6. I haven't made any new support characters, but the AoE change to shields and the endurance reduction to mastermind upgrades has made me pick up my demons/therm again, and I'm having a blast.

    Boom, there's you additional Incarnate content.

    EDIT: Yes I know that mode will take some time to created.
    This sounds splendid to me, assuming the idea is that threads have a chance of dropping. I don't know if it should be specific high-end arcs, or as an additional difficulty option you can set at a Fateweaver, but this is the beginnings of a good idea.

    On another note, it sounds like the children in this thread need to sit in the naughty corner or grow up. Some of the attitude in this thread stinks.
  8. I'm liking this trial more than the other two, myself. I had a question, but didn't feel it was worthy of its own thread.

    Did anyone take note of how much of a difference Alpha and Beta entanglement makes? It's an interesting mechanic that I'd like to counter by splitting up, but convincing a league to do that is going to be difficult if it makes next to no difference.
  9. I read these lastnight and hoped that screenshots would be posted of the vendors' new looks. Seems they weren't, so I kicked open my test client and had a look. Then realised that to not post screens would be rude. So here they are; bear in mind that the computer I took them on isn't great.



    I don't understand why they're in Ouro. Or why they're people. Or why they aren't just another tab in the incarnate window. But if they have to be people, I vastly prefer these outfits. Even if they do make the issue of the missing glove overlay flare up a bit.

    Now I just have to hope that they'll let us make over Apex to look more like Apex.

    I want illusion for dominators so I can pair it with something other than support. I have an ill/psi character waiting to be made; I just need the sets.

    Illusion/ doms or /mental controllers please. Whichever comes first.
  11. This was probably my favourite screenshot. I'm really looking forward to finding out more about these people that live outside Praetoria in the 'wasteland'.

    I also wonder if there's a universe where Clarissa Moore doesn't have epic hair.
  12. Elite, Paragon, and Serenity are good.

    But my favourite is Loyalty. It fits with the rest of the server names, and kinda describes its inhabitants.
  13. Although your average forumgoer may not even know that EMpulse exists, I'm definitely saddened to see her go. When I needed to be contacted for a competition or be disqualified from it, EM went the extra mile in trying to contact me and called me personally.

    I wish her the best of luck with everything she does.
  14. First off, well done! It would take me so much longer to achieve the same thing.

    I thought this part was particularly sweet:

    My namesake was originally a character to test out i11 on the test server. Now he's at the center of my CoH presence.

    Good lord, I hope not. I like starting in Galaxy for a reason. I'm expecting a throwaway event that may or may not hint at upcoming content. Which suits me just fine thank you very much.
  16. My interest is definitely peaked.

    Let me say now though that if meteor turn up and +4 Praetorian Clockwork climb out, I'm gonna be so disappointed. Otherwise, looking forward to finding out more.

    CoH Faces Dilema

    I was just on there the other day!

    I'll log in and friend you if you like, but you ain't seeing any face.
  18. Is this the last one? I've been waiting for the party pack to go on sale. The way the announcement's been worded makes me think I won't be getting that chance to get it at a more reasonable price.
  19. This discussion really belongs in the beta boards.

    They're looking for feedback on the prices of these things, so if you have something to say, go and tell them. Prices are subject to change, and that isn't going to happen if all the discussion about it is in a thread asking for a booster on the general boards.
  20. It's a nice idea, but you just know that were it to be implemented it would be limited to those in the states, and even then not all of them. Unless there was another way to earn the codes, I'd be against such an idea.

  22. I'm a kinda anxious person who gets uneasy about grouping up for things sometimes, so that obviously effects this.

    But I like trials because I can jump on them when I'm in the mood and know I don't have to dedicate more than twenty minutes to get my reward and then say goodbye to my leaguey weagies. If I feel uncomfortable once we start, it'll be over soon enough. So I'm happy to jump on these with absolute strangers.

    I like TFs when I know I've got a couple hours where I don't have to do anything, and have a cuppa sitting by. I'm highly unlikely to join a TF unless it has a couple people in it that I know fairly well, which these days is pretty much whatever TF is forming on Union Chat.

    I'd happily spend the night with a trial, but if I were to go on a weekend away with one of them, I'd have to pick the TF.
  23. My difficulty's always being adjusted, and incarnacey's no exception.

    I like to run so that I'm at risk of dying, but not doing so multiple times per mission. Being an incarnate has generally resulted in more mobs, and with my level shift came a +1 to the mob levels in my missions.

    I liked that I was becoming more powerful, but didn't want it to make my content easier. I just wanted harder content, so I seized it.

    It's been fun, both union and defiant's chat channels are filled with cool ppl that chat and are very helpful. I like the silly chat and the info that flies through those channels.

    Join union.. join defiant.. run and be free.
    As a regular Union Chatter, it genuinely warms me to read things like this.
