[CoH/V] i10 - This Is Our, Independence Day
Posts
Filefront wont let me. I tried on her computer, which I activated mine on, and then my computer, and both times it tried to tell me there were none available. I tried the click official demo link trick, no luck. I have a sneaking suspicion that filefront links its trial keys to ip's, so its probably issued a trial key to our router and refuses to issue another.
If this is the case, can someone who hasn't used theirs yet do me a huge favour and bung me another trial key via pm. I'd love to play heroes with her. :winky:
edit: HarshLanguage, you are a god among men. Thankyou.
I don't need a key anymore.
Well, I need to pick up GvsE and then convince the local cybercafe to install it onto another machine so I can play with my buddy.
I love Gear's initials. gg (good game) for when he feels like being female, gm (i...i dont have to explaint his one right?) for when he wants to be a real man.
So, my gf made a dark miasma/electricity blast defender. She loves the game so much we are gonna buy heroes (villians will probably happen in the second month since we are slightly low on funds).
She basically got hover and the game hooked her, rod and all. She can't wait for fly, but to tide her over we did the jetpack safeguard mission and I managed to find some crytek armor in a sidemission. Since I'm a katana/superreflexes scrapper, this was fuckin handy.
We're level 8 now.
She's not a "gamer" really, she plays worms, ragnarok online and a few anime based games with me, and we have a sotc save game where she watches me take out all the colossi, so her delight in the game (she wanted to play all day yesterday) is awesome. Since I love it too.
Heroes: bringing couples together to kill shit. :^:
See you guys in game, although today itll just be me on my other character.
Also, having internet access again is awesome.
You two should make some characters for Wednesday Night Teaming, if you can make it. The thread is floating around this forum.
Issue 9 details
There had better be some damn wasp wings in there somewhere. I want Vespa looking her best when I get back into this game.
I thought I saw Wasp Wings in the YouTube wing video that leaked a few months back.

Nope. Theres dev a post on the official boards that theres one more build of I8 to go to test before I9 goes to test, so we're probably looking at a week or two before I9 hits test, and probably a month on test at the minimum before it goes live. If its live in early April, we'll probably be lucky.
[Side note] - I'm a little worried about the timing of my post a little upthread: My apologies for drawing the ire of the internet gods to PA.
Though I'm sure that won't be for a while, anyway...
I dunno, it just seems like there's not a lot of villain-side stuff happening with PA, so I thought I'd float this out there.
Edit: How about a 2nd team night on Victory, on villains? Sunday maybe?
I think the idea of a Villain team night or superteam is a good idea, though I don't think I could participate much. My PC just doesn't get very good performance red-side, and an replacement isn't possible in the immediate future (its too old to make upgrading make any economic sense).
I've also been kicking around trying to set up an Event Day, which would pretty much be TF, Raids, PvP, LvL Rushing, badge farming, planned LK/SK power leveling, really anything. Just a set time on the same day each week where you could log on to find something going down. You may not always have a character who could go along but at least global would be full. Biggest problem for me is having the time to come up with something each week and my availability would pretty much limit me to Saturday. Obviously others would be able to help out on the events for each week.
So anyway if a Villain night (just like Hero Night) were to go down when would you want it?
If an Event Time was setup for Saturdays, it would be a three hour window but sometimes go longer or shorter depending on the event, what time would you want it to start? Would Saturday be a terrible time for you? (I'd say Sunday night is the best but Battlestar switched nights. :P )
I used the free CoV trial myself. Now it's in my owned games list and the trial is 7 days past and I can still play so if you own CoH you should be able to do the same thing.
The next patch after this will be Issue Nine.*
*Dev posts the other day said there were two builds coming, one more patch to I8, then I9.
Did I miss a memo somewhere? When did our trophy go away?
You know, that big sphere with the runes circling it?
The Item of Power we worked so hard for?
Some preview info of the upcoming Statesman TF in I9.
Sounds fun, but too few details to tell for certain, although they do say you get to bust stuff up on the islands.
Guys.
I think I'm coming back soon. I'm feeling the pull toward MMOs again, and from what I've read I9 will add just the kind of stuff that'll keep me entertained long-term. Plus of all the online games I've played CoH is the most consistently fun and has the best community by far.
Anyway, expect me back by the time I9 hits live, if not earlier. Woo!
