1. Since I4 Castle had been looking for a coding change to allow an end to Toggle dropping. Unbeknownst to him, Shannon Pozniewski (a cryptic programmer) added it in. Castle only recently found documentation on that, so, now it's in.

Heehee - hurrah for patchy change management systems!

[/ QUOTE ]

That change is something that really excites me, if I understand it correctly.

Does he mean that if an enemy hits you with a power which currently would drop your toggles, after I13 it won't drop those toggles?

That to me is one of the most irritating things about this game, having to constantly reclick your toggles.

Congratulations man

1.) is it possible to make water so that we can dive in it, swim deep and even have an empire under water?

[/ QUOTE ]1: There is a mission in the Imperous TF which has underwater swimming, so it seems possible.

[/ QUOTE ]
You don't actually swim though, there is no vertical movement, you just have a swim animation underwater. If the pools were fifty foot deep you'd fall to the bottom and only be able to get out with fly or jump. But while ta the bottom you would appear to swim. I suspect that if the add a swimming system they will grant a fly like buff when under/in water to give you a vertical movement, however it doesn't appear to exist yet.

[/ QUOTE ]

Erm...there is actually, i've had a small character in the pool and unless im seeing things she was mid air/water in the deepest part and she could move vertically in the water, saying that my huge 8ft tank is practicaly standing in it, but i'm quite sure the 5ft mm i have could move vertically...hmm i'll double check tomorrow.

[/ QUOTE ]

I've never ever had a character able to move up and down in that water without jumping.

[ QUOTE ]
I'd probably go. If I lost one name in particular, I would definitely leave.

Same here.

2: Mastermind: Ninja: Oni: Change what he bloody well looks like, to me he really does not suit the set and looks like a butt ugly Pig.

[/ QUOTE ]

Uh, Oni aren't supposed to look pretty, they're supposed to look horrible. He suits the set.

Cool. I’ve been learning so much in the last few months and this is yet another thing I didn’t know about. Their web site seems all over the place at the moment, but I’ve added it to my home pages so I’ll keep checking on it, and I’ve done some searching and read up on it in the last hour.

When you say, “… few people on the boards do it …” do you mean here, the US boards (where I can never find any fan fiction, just videos, videos, videos [sic]) or somewhere else? (Sorry, just being stupid.)

Anyway, this appears to be an excellent challenge and could well be the final straw to push me in to sleeplessness that I need (I never do any work without a really tight deadline ). If I can do the planning before 1st November (and can come up with a good plot ) that’ll mean 3,500 words each day to have it done by the middle of the month. (It’ll have to fit around the one CoH short story per month I’ve got planned, but I’m already ahead of the game with that. Oh, doesn’t 3,500 words per day sound so easy. )

I have some ideas. I’ll ruminate on it for the next few days, but I think I’ve already sold myself on it - bits of me are just playing catch up.

Morgana and Stasis have written stories for the previous 2 that I know of. I vaguely attempted but couldn't be bothered.

I think that what would give this game a massive upswing would be a new expansion with absolutely masses of new features, upgrades and content.

I would also kinda like it if the game felt a little looser. Currently whenever I go somewhere or do something I feel like I'm constantly repeating myself. When I fly I want to be able to fly however I want, wherever I want. I want to be able to fly upside down, do stunts, whatever.

Same for running, I want to be able to run up walls, or climb them like in Assassin's Creed.

I know this stuff is really unlikely to ever happen, so unlikely that I would put money on 'never', but it would make the game feel more fluid to me is all and I'd probably have more fun and feel more like a superhero.

Vox Doom is unable to function without Morgana's Empath Ibuprofen around.

THANK YOU!

I certainly wouldn't play this game for longer than a couple of months if it wasn't constantly updated.

gameplay wise, CoH is far far behind WoW.

[/ QUOTE ]

I beg to differ having tryed WoW more than once i find my self coming back to CoH because amongst other things i prefer CoHs game play

[/ QUOTE ]
You can proclame anything you want, how kiddies rule wow etc.. the fact is WoW is ahead over 9.5million players. At the end of the line, its numbers, nothing more... nothing less. Somewhere at those numbers, NC failed at CoH on it.

You might not like WoW on its graphics, its community or whatever, yet blizzard gave what people want, the numbers state it so. You can remain being unique, or keep your own style, AoC is the living example of the results of doing so. Ironic, that the only game that can actualy compete with wow is a simple 2D game, runs on the most oldest computers.

CoH is a awsome game, but never meant for the masses.

And whatever you try to justify this, it wont change the gap of 9.5million players. How good or bad a game would be.

Reality, sometimes you would prefer a brick.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, erm, the higher number of subscribers doesn't mean that WoW has better game play. It just means they have more subscribers.

A lot of people who play it won't even have heard of CoH, a lot won't even know the backstory behind WoW, they'll just know it as the popular MMO that their friends play, which is the number one reason I see and hear for people playing it might I add, not the gameplay.

Millions of people like Boyzone, that doesn't mean they're good.

The best thing ever would be if we could get models of our characters, like these guys do for WoW:

Oh bugger. I didn't even realise this was happening.

Seeya around Rockjaw, let us know how you get on.

You can't be ressurected after the Self Destruct. Hospital or Base.

There goes most of your argument.

You can self rez or use a wakey.

I'm going to wait until I have money to throw away before getting this.

Well.

I have nobody to use this on.

Not really that bothered about getting it.

Might get it at some point, for completion's sake.

Um, is there a reason we can't see any feet apart from a tiny bit on the guy on the left that just looks like a plain, metallica, large and banded boot?

I don't really think any of them are difficult to play, I just find some of them boring, like Controllers, Doms and Stalkers.

Right, I've ignored most of this thread because it seemed to turn into a flaming argument starting from where Rapthorn posted that he thought the thread wasn't worth posting in...

I think that they should just up the number of sidekicks each person can take with them, like Champions is going to be doing, to 4.

Seems like a good number to me, either that or 3, all you'd need is two high level people and you can make up the rest with sidekicks.

...aaaaaanyway, hopefully everyone's seen ROCKJAW'S MOST RECENT BLOG POST! and will send them off in the traditional gamer nerd way.

By getting completely and utterly rata... shi-- ...Ratfaced.

Y'know, rather than online bickering about the Best Way™ to say goodbye.

nice one, but now we have more different avatars then we need^^

[/ QUOTE ]

oh and your link was where exactly?

[/ QUOTE ]

Um, anyone who wanted either avatar could just right click on it on this forum and save it...

I'll let you two go back to arguing over it though...

[/ QUOTE ]

True but if you think cloning others avatars without there permisssion is cool well thats your call
yes but feel free to post a link to your contribution either here or somewhere else and let others enjoy your work.

[/ QUOTE ]

I would have thought that since the avatar in question is an attempt at drumming up support for Kerensky then you wouldn't mind people taking it without permission, gets the word around after all.
