My big wish is that we may someday get a Clockwork Winder as a back detail

That would be very cool! Great examples, Willowpaw

It may not be used for the Fog of War.

Notice how we now have arrows on the map to reveal where a Hostage/Ally is? They don't show up until you save them. Perhaps this makes them appear early?

Maybe glowies too?

[/ QUOTE ]

The description of Reveal posted on Red Tomax says, "Your extensive knowledge of your surroundings will allow you to clear the "Fog of War" from any map once every 5 minutes." So, your assumption is unlikely.



[/ QUOTE ]I really hope that is not it, as I already have all the maps memorized. How would this help me in any way?

[/ QUOTE ]

Mission maps?

Goo goo g'joob.

And bring beer, or other alcoholic beverage of your choice.

It's a generic stock sound, along the lines of the "Dr. Davis, Dr. Davis" you hear as hospital background noise.

I think one of the big problems for players picking up the AE box to start out is that the Architect edition cover ONLY talks about architect. It doesn't talk about the rest of the game except maybe as a little blurb.

You sure you didn't have those from a previous rikti raid or zombie raid? Those will drop level 30s as well.

[/ QUOTE ]

Duh! You're right.

I was just testing... yeah!

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh! Testing! Do I get a cookie?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not if you are a Hero, villains stole them all.

You can have a fig newton, though.

[/ QUOTE ]

Mmmm fig newtons. It's not a cookie, it's fruit and cake!

Not only does the newly updated Character Creator allow players to jump directly between Archetype, Powersets, Costumes and Character ID in any order without losing progress, but it also allows you to select your colors and theme for each individual power or apply it to the entire powerset. These themes will allow for color tinting of geometry and particle effects such as energy blast colors and force field colors. The primary and secondary colors of any power effect can be changed individually for each power in the set.

Am I reading this right? Does this say we will be able to change an Ax/WP brute to a fire/fire corruptor at lvl 38 and not lose anything? If so, I'm not really sure what to think about that. so....am I reading that right?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, it means there's no "next" button when you make a new character. You can make the ID first, then the costume, THEN select the powersets.

How soon is very soon? Is that like the "Forum Migration Soon" that Ex, Lighthouse, and then Niv have posted? Isn't it your turn to post that now?

[/ QUOTE ]

Meanie.

Forum Migration is also Very Soon<sup>Tm</sup> but not as Very Soon<sup>Tm</sup> as the Vet Reward announcement (I'm trying to get the finishing touches on that one done as we speak).

[/ QUOTE ]

Then quit posting and get back to work! Sheesh :P

I've SOLVED this issue on my system by doing the following:

1. I added " -renderthread 1" to the launcher shortcut.
2. I REMOVED compatability mode, running the program as normal.

After that, it worked normally! Near as I can figure, this has nothing to do with videocards, and has something to do with certain CPUs in Windows7. I'm running an Intel Core2Duo E6600.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm pretty sure I had renderthread already on my shortcut, but I'll check the compatibility mode when I boot tomorrow.

[/ QUOTE ]

turning OFF compatibility mode indeed fixed my problem, and I'm now able to run CoH under Win7. Huzzah!

Try logging out and back in again. I've had a couple badges not show up until I logged out and back in, or zoned.

I'm curious if they're going to allow coalitions between factions, like the bug at the beginning of CoV. Made for some very interesting and fun RP before they took it out.

It's a bit confusing because all full versions will allow access to both sides (all full versions also come with a free month of play). It really comes down to what extras you want. Because the Architect edition comes with a free booster (either magic or cyborg) if you like those packs, then that's what you should get.

With the advent of Going Rogue I will finally have the chance to play a kheldian on villian side, the only problem is I have no heros. So, I'm thinking of making a katana/willpower scrapper but wondered if anyone had any suggestions for a fast leveling hero side build who's main purpose is to get me access to kheldian. Any suggestions?

I would like to play a blaster but I'm not sure how good for solo play they are.

[/ QUOTE ]

First, has it been confirmed that we will be able to switch sides with the Epic ATs? I wouldn't be surprised either way.

For solo speed, a Scrapper or Blaster is definitely the way to go IMO.

As far as Scrappers go anything works great. The AT is pretty well balanced. That being said, Willpower is generally considered one of the easiest(if not the easiest) secondaries.

Blasters solo great. I would suggest Fire or Ice because of the superior ST damage. Paired with /elec or /EM you can do some amazing damage.

[/ QUOTE ]

/tinfoilhat

The reason they dropped the villain kheld idea was because they were going to allow hero khelds to cross over anyway and didn't want to have a duplicate AT.

/tinfoilhat

Just to make sure, the command you're using is /setmotd "channelname" Message here

If not, try that?

Any build without enhancements can still solo missions, Except the cape and aura missions. Doing cape mission at level 20 is foolish without high level help.

[/ QUOTE ]

Until you have run every build unenhanced through every mission, I call shenanigans.

[ QUOTE ]
Ummmmm, you didnt read everything i am sure.
I repeat my 4 mains are Healers.
You obvously are not from Champion server or you would know i run my Dark Defender through the Praetorian Arc and i SOLO AV's. I am called AV Killer as a nickname and am called by teams regularly who are stuck and need help against them.
I am also one of the few who can kill Romulus 4 times in 60 seconds from the ITF, SOLO!
If you come Champion side and want me to take an unenhanced character through the Praetorian Arc (Again) i have no problem with that!
I do not use scrappers and tanks, stand and scrap is not my style, too boring (too easy). Now if you want me to tank them with a Psi/Emp (very difficult, i am currently working on that as Trauma Storm) that i can do.
My top 4 are Dark Defender, Grav/Emp, Fire/Emp, and Warshade.

Decafe is the root of all evil

I AM DIVINE

[/ QUOTE ]

How many of these are unenhanced?

Why restrict yourself? Make both! I would.

I like to fry an egg until it's almost set, flip it over, top with salsa and some shredded cheese and cook it on low until the cheese is melted. Mmmmm.

I'm having the EXACT same problem running an ATI Radeon 4850 (under Windows 7 RC).

- Takes forever to show login screen
- attempting to zone in after selecting a character gives a loading bar that, literally, will take almost an hour to finish

This is not SLI or nVidia related, as I have neither.

[/ QUOTE ]

I also have the same problem, and I'm running a GeForce 7600 GT

Works fine in my XP boot, totally takes half an hour to load the game in Win7.

I'm going to make a character named Voilaition Reguatlaitor.
