The Mission Architect
Issue 14 brings with it a new feature that has the potential to be both riveting and alarmingly horrible, player created content! With the introduction of the new mission architect system players can create, test, publish, rate, or just play custom missions and story arcs.
Creation and Customization
Players can tweak nearly everything including environments, difficulty, enemies, enemy placement, mission objectives, mission events, ambushes, contact dialogue and character dialogue. They can even create entire custom enemy groups from the ground up drawing on City of Heroes already robust character creation system and power selection interface. Each story arc can have up to five missions and each mission can have up to 25 objectives. Here is a nice guide to the mission architect.
Hall of Fame
With high enough ratings and enough views your arc can be upgraded to the hall of fame giving players even easier access to your work.
Developer's Choice
Arcs that are hand-picked by the developers can be listed here for much the same result as the hall of fame.
Tickets
Each enemy group in an architect mission has a chance to drop tickets. Harder enemies will grant more tickets than weaker enemies. Tickets can be used to unlock mission architect content or buy recipe rolls.
Other Additions
- One global chat handle rename token granted to everyone.
- Some arena changes.
- A bunch of new badges related to the mission architect.
- Faster flight and hover yay!
- Some pvp changes.
- New pvp origin enhancements earned by defeating others in pvp zones.
Issue 13 Information
Issue 13 - Power and Responsibility!
Day Jobs (Offline Character Progression)
Scholar? Caregiver? City Official? Now when players log out of City of Heroes / Villains they’re just getting started! A character’s day job is determined by the actual in-game location from which he or she logs out. If players log out from a University their day job is considered to be a Scholar. If they log out from City Hall they're a City Official. The benefits are thematically appropriate to the location. For example, a City Official earns extra Influence, a Scholar is granted Salvage, a Caregiver is granted Health Regeneration Buffs, etc.
Once characters have accumulated the required amount of time for each Day Job, they are rewarded with the appropriate Day Job Badge and Title, increasing their “earnings” for that job. Multiple Badges can be combined to unlock Accolades and the ability to accumulate additional new rewards. Almost every location within Paragon City and the Rogue Isles has an associated Day Job, resulting in a wide selection of jobs and rewards!
New Powersets
Leveling Pacts
A new innovation to MMOs, this system allows you and a friend to create new characters and have your XP be permanently in sync, whether both characters are online or not. You will always be the same level, even if your friend plays ten times more often than you do!
New Cimerora Missions
New Hero and Villain story arcs expand upon the history and lore, and delve into the players and politics of Cimerora.
The Merit Rewards System
A new game system that allows players to earn tokens by completing Trials, Task Forces, Strike Forces, Raids, etc. The most challenging and time consuming tasks grant the most reward tokens, which can be redeemed throughout Hero and Villain zones for recipes, enhancements, salvage, costume pieces, badges, inspirations and other game items.
Multiple Builds
Ever want a build solely for PvE or for PvP? Now you can have both at the same time with Dual Builds. Second build acts like a respec where you can re-choose all your powers, but keep in mind enhancements do not copy over to the second build, you will have to recycle or re-buy enhancements.
Other features
New Invention Origin Sets, new Costume Sets, a Patron Power Respec, Zone Refinements, and more!

New Powersets
-
Shields – Heft a Shield for Heroic or Villainous Ends! This new powerset brings a classic power to City of Heroes: Shields! Now, you can arm Tankers, Scrappers, Brutes and Stalkers with a powerful shield to protect themselves and their allies.
- Pain Domination – Villains can now bend the power of pain to serve their own ends! Those playing a Corruptor or Mastermind have access to this new powerset. The antithesis of the Hero healing powerset “Empathy,” Pain Domination brings parity between Heroes and Villains with a distinctively evil flair.

Issue 12 - The Midnight Hour!
What's new in Issue 12?
The Midnight Squad
An organization of mystics, the Midnight Squad has a secret to end the Rikti Invasion, but without your help, it will remain 'Lost' forever...
Cimerora
"The Midnighters hold many secrets within their walls, including a highly coveted Ouroboros crystal, enabling them to travel to the far reaches of time. There is a familiar threat in an ancient land and the Midnighters need the help of both Heroes and Villains to stop it. Players step foot upon the ancient land of the Roman Cimeroran Peninsula, where they battle deadly creatures, defend an ancient city and ultimately come face to face with the enemy of time itself. Throughout this journey players uncover the mysteries of power and the origins that guide them today."
Roman Style Costumes
Unlocked through achievements ingame, make your Hero or Villain look like a true gladiator.
Epic Archetypes...for Villains!
When a villain hits level 50, they now have two epic archetypes available: Arachnos Soldiers and Arachnos Widows. Each of these can branch off into their own different powersets - Arachnos Soldiers can work as either a Bane Spider or a Crab Spider and Arachnos Widows as a Fortunata or a Night Widow. All of this comes with a unique story, costume set, missions, and more.
Powerset Proliferation
With Issue 12 comes a brand new opportunity - almost every Hero and Villain archetype will gain access to powers that they didn't have access to before!
Hollows Zone "Gameplay Makeover"
"Significant changes have been made to the Hollows zone to make it more fun! NPC encounters have been rebalanced, including new spawns, new villain groups, mission door improvements, and a mobile hospital has been added to the entrance of the zone. Additionally, Meg Mason, a new contact, has been added to give out repeatable missions."
What else?
Configurable new power trays - customize your UI by placing them anywhere you want.
Contact display redesign - display your contacts as active and inactive, sorting them by a number of criteria.
Inspiration conversion - change three of one kind of inspiration into one of another.
Level-up boost - gain a massive (if temporary) boost to your stats on a level up, as well as full HP and Endurance.
Chat improvements - right click on character names in chat window to ignore, add to friends list, invite to team, etc. Drag any item (enhancement, inspiration, salvage, etc.) into the chat window so that you and others can click a hotlink to view the complete info box.
More real numbers - players can now display stats on powers before they choose them enabling more informed power selection and new temporary powers allow players to display enemy stats.

Just the FAQs
How good is CoX?
In this thread we discuss all things City of Heroes and City of Villains. For those new to our world here is a brief FAQ.
Get ready to put the tights on because Cryptic is serving up a 10 Day Free Trial. What does that mean? It means you get a the chance to play the Best Super Hero based MMO of All Time*for FREE!
*By best we mean only, though it is very good.
10 Day Free Trials, EXCELSIOR!
Any active (or inactive) subscriber can send out a few Friend Invites which have a 10 Day Free Trial. We simply need your e-mail to do so. If you decide you like the game and subscribe for two months the person who sent out the invite gets a free month of game time. Very niiiice.
PA plays on the Virtue server.
If you want in, make with the post asking for someone to PM you, then respond with your e-mail. We don't want to accidentally send one person multiple invites since there are only a limited number available. If you end up liking the game we recommend you buy the City of Heroes Architect Edition which for 20 dollars nets you both City of Heroes and City of Villains with discs that contain all content up to issue 13 as well as a free month and your choice of the cyborg booster pack or the magic booster pack.
The 411 on City of Heroes/Villains, yo.
Character Creation is likened onto a game of its own.
At launch CoH had something like 3 trillion potentially different costume configurations. Since then they have easily doubled the number of costume pieces, not to mention added face scalers, particle effects, wings, capes, trench coats, etc. So the current number of potential costumes numbers somewhere in the range of awholefuckinglot.
If you've ever wanted to be a robotic undead pirate with a leather fetish and fondness of 80's colorful fashion who can shoot electricity from his hands THIS is the game for you.
Download Mid's Hero Designer for a list of all powers and Archetypes in the game.

CoH/V has your standard MMO ability bar where you click it and perform your special attacks but it isn't really your standard MMO combat.
* Regular mobs die faster and you fight a hell of a lot more than one at a time. The bigger stuff, like Bosses or Giant Monsters, obviously take longer to kill.
* You can strategically use Line of Sight and Knockback to your advantage.
* Combat in large teams can quickly turn into chaos because of the number of enemies being fought at once. You'll see ten guys get blown off the balcony you are fighting on by an Energy Blaster while the Mind Controller forces the Boss to beat up his minions as the Tanker hordes another 15 enemies on him after the Defender just buffed the Scrapper to godhood who proceeds to run off and kill the next spawn over.
* A small army of Zombies, Ninjas, Robots, etc under your control.
* Ragdoll physics make you feel like a man. Mobs crumple when they die or get knocked around instead of playing the same animation every time.
* Lasers...from your eyes. And various other places.
* Mount? You don't need no mount! Flight, Super Speed, Teleportation, or Super Jump are obtainable at lvl 14 and allow you to haul ass around Paragon and the Rogue Isles instead of just walking. As early as lvl 5 you can obtain a temporary Jetpack to fly around with, just ask how in game.
* PvP so fast it'll make you feel like a twitch gamer. Various PvP zones with different goals and rewards, like Battlefield style capture points or obtaining your own nuclear missile. No joke, you can get your own orbital nuke (store up to three) to use at anytime.
* Badges which are like Xbox 360 Achievements for your character. You get EXP for finding exploration ones, you get others for killing X number of mobs or doing certian missions or finishing Task Forces, etc. If you get the right combination of badges it will unlock special powers or permanent Health and Endurance boosts.
* Special "GTA" style missions. Stop a bank from being robbed, defeat some vandals, prevent an arson, stop a jail brake, etc. Alternatively as villain rob a bank, vandalize everything, start an arson, break a fellow villain out of jail, etc.
* Physics engine that leaves shell casings, blown up robotic parts, ect on the ground that you AND your powers can interact with. Knock an enemy into a tree and a shower of leaves fall. Use Tornado in an alley and garbage gets thrown up from the dumpsters. Kick a guy of a balcony only to see his neck get caught between the railings so he dangles there in a gruesome, gruesome way.
Here are some videos!
Great CoX Resources
ParagonWiki is all kinds of useful and ever growing.
Red Tomax's Guide is really clean and efficient, very nice.
What server are the PA super groups on?
Virtue, the unofficial RP server. Not that we really RP.
How do I join the PA Chat Channel?
To join simply type /chanjoin "Penny Arcade" and hit enter. Then right click a chat tab, click edit, and add Penny Arcade to the tab.
A useful bind is /bind l beginchat /send "Penny Arcade" This way every time you hit l (or any key you choose) it lets you talk to every member of the PAcrew who is on, no matter what character they are playing as. Alternatively, you can just right click on the chat window and select the Penny Arcade channel and type away. Also, you could simply set the Penny Arcade channel to the default in your chat tab and hit the little A button to type.
Another possible but poor choice is this terrible bind Ringo suggests, what a loser.
Yeah but how do I get in the Super Group?
The best way to go about this is to ask if anyone in the global chat can invite you. All PA supergroup members have invite powers(though you may need an officer to kick). The command is /sgi name.
What PA SGs are there?
Hero
Power's Allegory - Virtue - Main Hero SG
Power's Allegory - Victory - Secondary Server SG
Power's Academy - Virtue - Alt Hero SG
Power's Apex - Virtue - 50s Retirement SG
Villain
Power's Affliction - Virtue - Main Villain SG
Power's Affliction - Victory - Secondary Server SG
Social Entropy - Virtue - Alt Villain SG
Are there any rules for the SGs?
Don't be a giant ass, we don't like asses. Well we do but only when they are p.h.a.t.
The SG activity fluctuates so sometimes we have to boot inactive members. We do so based on last time they logged in.
The SG humbly requests everyone play in SG mode as much as possible as that is how we earn Prestige(rent/building money) to keep our base (and the teleporters) open.
I'm in! Now how does this SG costume work?
Click Super on the text window, Settings in the section that pops up, click accept on this new page, now toy around with the colors. You can opt to turn the SG emblem on or hide it. To turn on SG mode click the Enter/Exit Supergroup Mode in the Super window.
Tell me about the Archetypes and Power Sets.
Just download Mid's Hero Designer. It will be much easier for all of us.
Is there an easy way to find badges/plagues? I'm lost in Perez Park! Why can't I find any Circle of Thorns?
Whine, whine, whine. Back in my day we didn't know where anything was and we liked it. Now we have an easier way...you cheater. Here is a link to a webpage with a download that replaces all in-game maps with ones that have badges, plaques, mobs, and even Perez Park trails in them. Enjoy. You can also just view the maps right on the website.
The game runs slowly for me: is there anything I can do to improve that?
Buy a new computer.
Alternatively, add this to the Target bar in the shortcut to the game:
-useTexEnvCombine
After turning all the settings down, you should be able to get a decent framerate. Though meant for laptops, this could also give you a better experience if you're using an ATI graphics card.
You can also try a /sync from time to time if you are experiencing a lot of rubberbanding.
How do mobs spawn in missions?
Where can I download the client, if I need to?
Click this Linky. The CoH and CoV client are one in the same.
Any questions? Ask away.
Aha, you see you aren't right about that. Females can use those awesome coats and cloaks and probably hat/skull mask too.
If chicks can use the male costume pieces, will the men be able to use the bat themed lingerie?
God... that could make for some exceptionally disturbing arcs.
We have similar ideas, you and I.
I'll be in my bunk.
I was trying to follow what people were saying last thread, but are there any things I should watch out for? Any must-have powers or stuff that is useless? Is there a certain good way to start out if I have no idea what I'm doing and, by some miracle, have never played an MMO before?
I'm not sure trials let you get in the global chat any more.
As for good powers well what Scoot suggets is good but if you have any burning questions or concerns you can ask them here in the thread. Might help us if you told us what your character's primary and secondary is.
I have no idea why they hate trials so much now. It's way beyond cutting down on spammers.
I14 goes live and my good comp is still in for repairs.
i want the magic booster anyway, which it comes with (i already got the cyborg booster)
and when you factor in the free month all in all i'm paying like $5 extra?
sounds like a good deal
The various boxed copies have different rewards as part of purchasing them, but they all also include one month of play. The new box (architect edition) has a token to download either the magic pack or the cyborg pack (which add costume pieces and a few other niceties). No matter which version you buy (good and evil, architect edition, mac edition) you'll still get the full game.

PAX Prime 2014 Buttoneering!
Could it possibly be because so many people don't give half of two shits (meaning one shit) about reaching level cap, or doing the awesome things, they just want to roll new characters and fuck around with them for awhile, so just chaining trials together remaking new characters for free all the time let them do this. And now if they want to do it, then they can't even chat with people?
That's just always been my guess on why CoX trials are so harsh, because there isn't the "drive" to reach level cap, so people can just play eternally for free off trials.
yeah you get everything
you don't have to pay for expansion packs to get new content like other MMOs
also if you're gonna buy the game you should get a referral code from someone so that that person and you both get a free 15 days
someone like me
If people want something like this they are going to have to pm me the information(or just post in here I guess but I don't guarantee I will see it) about their arcs or the arcs they think people should try.
So if you want your arc or some other arc in the op pm me(preferably) the number, the name and whether it's your arc or some other persons. Also maybe a small synopsis on what it is or why people should try it.

Well the trial does cap at level 14 (or maybe 16). So that adds to it being worthless. It is decent to use for the 14 free days, but otherwise, it is so limiting it almost makes the game unfun. You can't even group with your friend(s) if you both pick up the trial.
Just got a macbook for the first time, but the updater is freakin' slow. It was this slow on my old laptop until I just changed the desktop short cut to do something with the ports. Can't find anything related to that for the macintosh so I'm stuck downloading at 7 kb.sec instead of a decent 40kb/sec. So..only 100 hours to go.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I could speed up the patcher? The only half-fix I found for slow updaters for macs was to edit a file in the CoH folder. They poster said that it'll either help or just not load your updater..for me it was the latter so I'm back to square one.
CoH forums tells me that my account status at the moment will not let me register a forum account either. Nice.
While playing my catboy controller is boring as hell, making the entire group yell at me for making constant lame cat puns is so worth it. So worth it.
I knew I was missing something!!
I wish I had more room for different types of catboys. I have 10 or so right now, from minion to boss. There are just so many more I could do.
I think I might also need to stretch mine out over several missions instead of just having it be one mission.
Runs fine for me... Downloaded in just a couple of hours, iirc.
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat
Had that happen to me last night, but after closing and relaunching a couple times it started working.
