    Heads up, we'll probably be attempting a Cathedral of Pain next weekend, the one 'new' group thing out

    It requires 24 people, so get your accounts in order and clear your schedules

    Kinetic Melee has very gratifying sound effects.

    I suspect that Kin/Regen scrapper with Hasten would be utterly ridiculous.

    So the campus I'm living on seems to have blocked the ports CoH uses. Is there any way I can get around that?

    Besides some port forwarding magic, you might be able to just go to the system admins and ask them to open them. Just say it's for an online game and they usually will (they would at my university, in fact I think when it came out I did this for coh)

    Unfortunately I'm just here for the summer and I don't even know who the sys admin is. It's no biggy though, I'll just play every now and then.

    Heh, I completely forgot how uncreative I get when faced with the customization in this game. I'll start calling it City of Staring Blankly at the Character Screen.

    Picked this up today on a good deal from work after getting the urge to jump around a cityscape like a doofus. Don't have the first clue about it, never tried the game before. Looking forward to spending entirely too much time making a character though!

    Really? I always have too many ideas and I want to start making a new character as soon as I finish the first one. They're not all very original, but that's a different problem.

    Dark gravity control looks pretty sweet.

    Also if there is anything about City of Heroes I could change (other than caves) it would be to permanently disable the viewing of all other peoples names in any context whatsoever.

    CLAW HEALER.

    BULL THROTTLE


    ok bull throttle was pretty funny

    but you get the idea

    P.S. kinetic melee scrapper really shits the bed at 10. worse than my blaster did. Trying to milk my trial period as much as I can before I sub and can actually respond to LFT messages.

    How's Dual Pistols from a gameplay perspective, anyway? As soon as this snafu with my password gets resolves I was gonna play that but I always worry about powersets being lame and unusable :(

    Dual pistols it cool. The animations are satisfying, good weapon customization leaves a lot of costume possibilities.

    The swap ammo ability augments all of your abilities with special effects, so you get small tastes of ice, fire, and I suppose radiation/toxic.

    Only thing I don't like are the animations are a little slow compared to say, ice.

    Pretty sure you can disable the names displayed above people's heads, but you'll still see them if you target them, and in chat.

    So close the chat window, set player names to off, and enjoy yourself!

    Man combining kinetic melee with shield defense was not a great plan aesthetics-wise, KM just has no visual impact when he does that shit one-armed

    Maybe when my account opens back up I'll be KM/SR or something (is Super Reflexes any good now?)

    Anything that helps increase your damage throughput would be good, because the damage capability of KM seems to be pretty poor. At least compared to what I remember of Dark Melee.

    Super Reflexes is still a little squishy early on, as any +DEF only set would be, but my lvl 50 Dark/SR scrapper now barely ever gets hit unless I'm on some huge team at max difficulty, and then there's usually a tanker taking most of the aggro anyway.

    the great thing about SR is that I never have to wonder what kind of damage they're doing, because it doesn't matter.

    also the extra global recharge and run speed is pretty nice.

    The choices in the expansion areas are so awesome. Being a horrible, shameless fame hounding villain is the best thing ever.

    I'm crossing my fingers that Fox's attempt at rebooting the movie franchise never makes it out of preproduction, and therefore the rights revert back to Marvel.

    Then we can have Doom fighting the Avengers.
