[larrymcg421]

I'm logging on right now. Don't really have anyone in those ranges, though.

[Lorena]

So is there a trial version for this thing? Antmeister and I are itching to play.

[SirFozzie]

There used to be trials.. if I could I would get you one

The Good Vs Evil Pack is now only $30, and that comes with both City Of Heroes and City of Villains, and gives 30 days free. ($15 value), so it's really for $15.

[sachmo71]

There's a trial on MMORPG.ORG. 14 days free.

Whoa! Thanks. You will probably see the both of us tommorrow if all goes well.

[Eilim]

Was going through my demos and screenshots and thought I'd share..


Uafasach and Keiran make a new friend:





Awww, look, our new friend gives Keiran a hug!:




Keiran gave him a hug back, but the results were not pleasant.. poor guy:



Maybe next time he should put away the axe before attempting to greet new friends.

[Antmeister]

Well I was able to recreate my character. Should see me playing tonight. Hopefully DC won't take forever clothing her character.

[SirFozzie]

Ok.. Tonight we have an all-out CoH fest?

[MrBug708]

I'll jump on here now then too

[SirFozzie]

I'll be on in about half an hour

[SirFozzie]

Ok, I'm on.

if you guys are around, send Galeanna a tell

[Antmeister]

I will be in tutorial mode with either my scrapper Mystikhan or my blaster Neon Chaos.

[hoopsguy]

Does Neon know about this?

I've reactivated my old account and will look to get some gaming in over the next couple of weeks. Has been forever and a day since I played this game ....

[Lorena]

Hellspirit in the hizzy

Still level 1, but excited to be playing again... looking forward to seing hoops, sirfozzie, cuervo, larry and everyone else!

[Marmel]

Somebody told me to come back and check out a couple threads...
I got a couple lowbies on Virtue. In game global: @Beach Lifeguard (dont ask)

Protector is my main and if anybody wants to make a side toon on that server, I can hook you up with anything you need influence or teaming-wise.

Also be happy to answer any questions about the game you might have.

[MrBug708]

Damn!~

Nuh uh!!! It'd be awesome if you and Mel would join us for a few missions.

Mystikhan and Hellspirit are now level 6.

[larrymcg421]

Super Shamrock is at lvl 10 and Thalgor at lvl 12. Let me know when you guys get someone up to those lvl's. And I'll start up some new alts on virtue as well.

[hoopsguy]

I created Waterloo last night, who is now a Level 3 Science/Defender. Waterloo suffers from short mans disease and feels the need to engage in very unimpressive hand-to-hand combat regularly to augment his less-than-fearsome bow attacks and bevy (can a level 3 character really have a bevy???) of stun attacks.

I've also got a pair of characters from years ago on this server - levels 11 and 14, think they are scrapper and blaster, but don't remember the other details. So if those characters are more compatible with playing with the group I'll bring them back from the dead.

[sachmo71]

How did the super-FOFC teamup go?

[SirFozzie]

we're all getting to similar level, hopefully the team up will happen tonight.

[Neon_Chaos]

I just want to say, I never have and probably never will play COH/COV.

So have fun with the name, Ant.

[Lorena]

Ant and I teamed up with The Insatiable Fire Bug... a character that's an ice/electricity school girl. I was totally expecting to see some sort of a fire/fire bug blaster. I was WAY off.

Ant and I had a lot of fun... just like the good 'ol days Where were you Mr. Sachmo?

Neon Chaos is now level is now level 6, and I created an ice/ice tank named Wonder Frost and she's now level 5. Not sure about grouping tonight, we're going out but maybe late, late in the eve.

Well, my wife has been driving back and forth to Waco because her mom is pretty sick. Last night she drove home to spend some time together, so the smart side of my brain told me to lay off of City of Heroes for the evening. One of my better decisions, if I do say so myself.

[MrBug708]

Im going on as senor bug lvl 15 scrapper

[Yellow5]

I am trying this with the 14 day trial. I am on the Virtue server as Johnny Chilled. One bad afro wearing Tanker. I'm in Atlas Park doing newb stuff.

[condors]

Eilim,

Nice screenshots there

[hoopsguy]

Was online for awhile last night and advanced Waterloo to Level 7. I'm hoping to have some time to play this afternoon if anyone is interested in teaming up. I've got my first Hollows contact, which is an area that will be easier to complete with a couple of friends along for the ride.

I have to say, for such a young hero, Waterloo handled himself quite well this morning during the alien invasion. Was a risky one too, quite a few heavies showed up. Keep this up and you'll have your watchman badge in no time.

If you ever find yourself in a bind for teammates, feel free to shoot me a tell and I can exemplar down and lend a hand.

[hoopsguy]

It is going to be tough for me to give this game up after the two week trial ends - I really enjoyed the heck out of it last time and it remains a blast now. I'm also surprised by how much I had forgotten about this game, but slowly they are coming back to me.

Eilim, what level if Uafasach at now? Also, thanks for the tips on recipes/salvage. I got my first couple of recipes during the invasion so I'll be looking to either take advantage of those or start putting away the $$$/Influence as you mentioned.

The invasion was neat - first time I have seen one of those. Pretty intense group fire-fight, every direction I turned for fifteen minutes or so there were bad guys to shoot. It helped being on a team with healers and having my new Repel power to provide a little breathing room. Kinetics is a branch I have never played before - I don't even think I had a person in our Victory group that had it, come to think of it ...

I know what you mean hoops, Ant and I are having a lot of fun and it's gonna be tough giving it up after the trial.

I've had conversations about this with FOBLers who played a couple of years ago. The CoX devs have really added a LOT to the game. They do a great job of keeping it fresh IMO.

Agreed. The consignment houses, police scanner, Ritki evasion, salvage, recipes was not there the last time we played. And even the balance of the game has changed dramatically. It is nice to know I can solo with a Blaster fairly well. That wasn't the case the last time we played (two years ago). And I am sure there are many more undiscovered new things as well.

Hit 33 in the invasion in King's Row I was running off too when we parted ways.

Yeah, the drops from my younger level invasions gave me the starting capital to make some money working wentworths. Buy low/sell high can really make the cash quick (Made 3 mil or so in a half hour my first time doing it.), you just have to use the info on the last 5 sales wisely. Heck you can make a lot just by vendor dumping some of the recipes people put up.

I'm pretty much always broke now (comparatively that is.) because I'm too lazy to work the market and my numerous visits to Icon. God help me when I unlock more costume slots. Just dumped 300k on a new look just to use my new cherub wings drop. Doubt it will last more than a day or two as it looks like something out of a bad anime... or something one of the "MRP"ers in Pocket D would think up. heh

CoV itself, the renovated Pocket D, more rail stops, veterans rewards, Croatoa, Faultline, PvP zones, archery/sonic sets, though some of these might have been around when you stopped. Lots of costume options too. Oh, more varied missions (lead captives out, many of which fight with you).

Blasters are being looked at actually. _Castle_ posted a thread on their forums looking for ideas for reworking defiance, which isn't as effective as they'd planned.

My chat handle is @Ladore and Antmeister's is @Neon Chaos in case anyone wants to group.

@FOFC, kids. When you're on, check here.

[Yellow5]

Up to level 6 and counting thanks to Ant and DC.
