  1. I run through it every time. Would rather run the tutorial, feels like I'm part of something new than street sweep 5 baddies. But having said that, to each their own.
  2. Sorry Texas Justice, I misunderstood where you said about the modder. Ok, I'll have to go find where that stuff is. I was looking earlier, but didn't see any of the stuff you indicated. Thanks again. My apologies, I am a bit challenged when it comes to stuff like this. I appreciate your patience.

  4. When I go to ATI, I see a drive with a driver date of 07/17/2011. But when I click to download, it says the most current are already on there. What do I do with that. How can I update the drivers?

  6. I keep getting an message when I log into COH saying that I have an older version of drivers which may cause COH not to work well. I hate the 1600x/1650x version of the Radeon drivers. I have gone on to www.amd.com to update, and I do an auto detect and it tells me I have the most recent version. Not sure what to do here. Not very technically inclined in terms of knowing what to do. I have Windows XP.

    Any help here? The game lags a lot for me. Is there something I can adjust in game?

    Any help anyone can provide would be much appreciated.
  7. Well done. You are two for two. I like this set as well. And what Techbot Alpha said, I like the effort and presentation. Good work, good set.
  8. Great idea. Different concept for powers. Should be one to pair with ranged and support, and one for melee as well.
  9. I like. Make it so. Always felt like something was missing in this game powerwise, ahhh, magnetism. Do it!
  10. Here's my solution. Gonna forego the store, but DEfinitely gonna drink a tonne of beer on St. Paddy's day that I'll see my own leprechaun and maybe he can buff my drinking skills, ha ha ha ha ha. I hope that didn't violate anything.

    But that is a lot of points.
  11. Hey team, keep in mind that Shakeup won't be there this week. He is away (for real, lol) for work. Be back next week.
  12. Sorry about last week everyone. Shakeup will be there this week.

    The week of the 14th, I will be out of town for work, so won't be able to make it.
  13. For Katie and Hess, run the Mission Arcs for Striga, good xp there. The stories are all somewhat linked to the lore of Striga, so kind of like a TF.

    Mission arcs give out rewards and merits, depending on the ones you run. Look into those. Plus, if one is the WST, the XP bonus at the end is great.
  14. ((All of you guys are much better writers than I am. Good stuff you guys have put out, really like them all))
  15. In almost 5 years I have gotten maybe 5 purples. That's one per year, lol. They're random. Nuff said.
  16. I have two incarnates, and they have respectively 1500 and 1400 reward merits. I like that they are bound to specific characters, and that's how it should be. They are rewarded for what they specifically have accomplished. I ran Apex the other day, 80 merits, it was the WST. Run those, get your favour or whatever it is of the well, and double rewards.

    If you aren't incarnate, get a great XP bonus at the end. Either way, win, win.
  17. NRG being optic, or any of the blast sets really.

    Or from the chest.

    Is this the wrong thread for these???? Maybe?
  18. Can we expect some later this year? We had some recently if I recall correctly, so don't imagine it will be any time soon.
  19. The longer we stay in the Rogue Isles, the more I want to create a volcano and destroy the whole damn place. Is there a soul worth saving? I can't even believe I am asking that. I'm a hero. I took a mission to hit them from the inside, but the longer I stay the more I feel myself losing my grip on humanity.

    Moxie Girl just wants to beat people up, but at least I know she is only focused on the mission, and not interested in hurting people unnecessarily. At least I think that's the case.

    Hito-Kori is a schizophrenic lunatic who wants to kill me and take over leadership of the team. He/They bear watching. If I have to, I will do what I need to do as far as he/they are concerned

    Mistress Mercury is a child. How the hell can a teenager be any kind of Mistress. She hates Max, can't say that I blame her sometimes, but if only she knew the good that he did she might see things differently. There were some people that missed the call in Galaxy City.........or were prevented from reaching us. It was chaos. She is too caught up in her own grief to understand.

    Tallybird is hard to figure out. Is she a cold blooded murderer? Does she enjoy killing villains? What is driving her to be so ruthless......I don't know. Because of her mental abilities, I can't risk calling in the psychics. She has got to be watched, and if necessary, neutralized.

    What is clear Max, is that this team is teetering on the edge. You knew this could be a possible outcome. It may be time to pull the team back. If not now, soon. We'll keep at it, but you made me team leader for a reason. I haven't lost my senses, or my humanity, and I won't let this team either.

    Paid For Powers?

    They did it for all the blast sets, but they didn't do a good job with it.

    They could have done so much more. Alternate animations for eyes, chest, wrists (from launchers for lack of a better word). In my mind, if they had done that, they could have expanded the power "life" of existing blast powers.
  21. thgebull0425

    What's going on!

    Where do I find the most recent ustream?
  22. thgebull0425

    CoH2 already

    How far can they go with the engine they've got for COH? I'm not a programmer, but is there a limit to how much they can add to the game?
  23. thgebull0425

    Powers and such

    Aside from Staff fighting, have we had any "leaks" about other sets that are being worked on?

    What about the next round of alternate animations?

    or

    How about more proliferation?

    Changes to Doms? When is this happening?

    Just curious if there is any info about this out there.
  24. My thought is this. It is a think outside the box type of powerset, and I personally like that. Sure, there might need to be some tweeking, but it allows some of the other classes some melee options, and of course would be balanced out. I think it's not a bad idea at all.

    Mind you, I'm not a details guy, so the rest of you work it out
