Hostages have a sound effect like glowies do?
Zephyr Star replied to Zephyr Star's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I'm fairly familiar with all maps, but not every map has things/hostages in the same place every time. Sometimes there are open doors that can be overlooked and don't get me started with Oranbega. Regular caves aren't as bad. Even outdoor maps can be troublesome especially the one with all the hills and such. I use the find macro for open maps but it's not really helpful in office/caves for targeting blockage. I'm also just lazy and want my hand held. I got a job and a kid now, I'm not the carefree gamer I was in the early aughts with loads of time to find things! -

Zephyr Star replied to Zephyr Star's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I just tried that on a different mission and kept going in circles lol. Turned down the left hallway on another floor and heard the glowie and found the boss. Might not be the same on every map! I like the sound effects in this game and always play with them on. -
Big Oranbega maps and office buildings with tons of nooks and crannies are the worst for hostage rescuing! It would be so helpful if the poor citizens had a sound effect, like maybe scared vocalizations or maybe crying? Or even the hostage takers making a mua-ha-ha! villain sound! -Signed Someone that has been searching for twenty minutes for that last hostage in an enormous office building and needed a break.

My Altitis is doing my head in!
Zephyr Star replied to Scarlet Shocker's topic in General Discussion
I have my "main" character, meaning he's the one I focus on badges, TFs/Trials, etc and influence gaining to fund all my alts (which is a frightening amount). I will be playing him in something, then inevitably get an idea for something else. First, I will think of a name and check to see if it's available. If so, I snag it immediately, then decide on powersets/costume/etc. I do this a lot. It doesn't take as long to get to max level as it did back in the day, so rolling alts isn't as big of a deal. If you get an idea, make it! The creativity available in this game is astounding, and always has been. -
I couldn't find any topics mentioning this, though admittedly my powers of searching is not impressive. After my character robs a bank, I see the text pop up that a hero is on the way. They never show up. I've tried: Waiting by the vault. Only Longbow and then the Kheldian Cops show up. Waiting downstairs. The same. Clearing cops around the bank. Clearing any side missions. Exiting and reentering. Clearing entire map. All I want is to get the badges from mayhems, including Hero Slayer. I know there's other ways to obtain that particular badge but I was hoping to get them all together. Is there anything I'm missing to get this to work or am I just not a good enough villain and the hero has better things to do?

What's the smallest change to CoX that you really want?
Zephyr Star replied to DougGraves's topic in General Discussion
For all the "Echo: XYZ" zones in Ouroboros to still have the original mission story lines. I almost always started in Galaxy City instead of Atlas Park and I miss it greatly. I've no idea how small this would be to implement but man would I be happy. -
Hope it's okay I'm giving new life to this post! While I haven't had much problem with capes since I posted this way back in ol' 2019 I have run into one again. I rolled a Titan Weapon Brute and her cape seems to either be magnetized to the weapon or just stands out straight when she's holding the weapon ooc. Anyone else have this problem? She needs her cape 😢but can live without it. All of these screenshots were taken after standing still for 5 or so seconds. If she hasn't had the weapon out then the cape usually acts fine.

((No longer an active SG. Possibly once again in the future)) Group Name: Night Hall Alignment: Hero/Vigilante/Rogue (some restricitions may apply) Roleplay: Heavy Discord: (none yet) Recruitment Officer: @Zephyr Star, or character Lady Domino, @Rastille or character Rustbane Recruitment Message: Welcome to the mysterious Night Hall, a haven for mutants that need a home, or a place to feel safe from the world where they may be treated poorly. Located in a pocket dimension, mutants and their friends can feel free to enter the house unencumbered. ((Hello! Lady Domino here. I am looking to start a mutant-centric RP group! I would love to have an intimate collection of roleplayers interested in grouping for missions, task/strike forces and events, and hopefully start storylines within the group! While the main idea is mutant RP, I wouldn't turn any character's origin away within reason. I hope to garner some interest to get this off the ground! I will be posting random recruitment ads in game! Send me a DM here or in-game for more info.))

I teamed with some wonderful RPers today! It was so much fun, I will likely make this a regular thing (until I can't!). Probably a little earlier in the day (12pm PST/3pm EST). I'll make a note of it here when I have another arc ready! I love this server. Edit to add, which I should have done in the first post: The character I am using for this is named Lady Domino, Dark/Dark Scrapper!

Hello Everlasting! I love teaming! I love IC teams even more! I have a new character I've been playing the past few days and I'm trying something new-- after collecting every block of contacts that give story arcs available to a level range I turn off my XP so I can finish without levelling past them. But Zeph, you're probably not asking yourself, why don't you just do flashbacks? Because I want to be able to invite another player into the group in case someone has to leave, which you can't do with flashbacks. Just that simple.🤷♀️ I'm looking for a change from scanner/newspaper groups, and blazing through TFs/SFs. Which are great for levelling of course, but I have a fair number of level 50s collecting dust on my alt shelf and am not looking to do that with this character. Anyway. Today, April 13 2022 at 3pm PST (6pm EST) I will be doing the Vahzilok Pollutant Plot, a level 14 story arc! It's 6 missions long, and I'm guessing with being IC and running around with 7 other players, this will probably take about an hour-hour and a half! And yes I'm picking Vahzilok for this because I am vaguely mean. Any level will be welcome. Any AT will be welcome. Anyone at all will be welcome, I only ask that you're willing to roleplay! If you're at all interested, I'm going to start the invites about 15 min before starting (so, around 2:45pm PST). Just send a whisper to my global, @Zephyr Star to see about an invite!

I don't think this is spoilery but doing it anyway.

Zephyr Star started following Suggestion: Make the Personal ID window bigger and easier to use!
-
(Sorry just saw this come up in the BIG RP thread, don't mind me) One of the things that has given me frustration all the way back to Live was the personal ID window. It's hard to type in the window, especially if you need to go back and correct a typo or grammar. You will often have to deal with spacing bugging out and need to start completely over. Copy/pasting is a pain since it often doesn't recognize spacing correctly. Also, 1023 characters is hardly enough room, especially since it uses sentence structure (spacing and paragraphs) as characters! I'm not thinking of room to write a novella but sometimes a character has a fun background and it's frustrating to run out of room and either have to restructure the spacing or cut off the last sentence. I understand wanting to just glance at a background to get an idea of a character, but having more room would help for a TL;DR at the top or something similar so people wouldn't feel like they have to read everything else. I sometimes enjoy sitting in Pocket D, just reading character backgrounds when I'm taking a break from other things in the game. Just a thought I've often had! Sorry if this has been brought up before, I tried searching but I didn't find anything right away.
