I wouldn't have made it in time anyway (it would have been nice if there was an in game pop up to let people know this was going to be a thing)
but but I don't even know how to get the screen shot up here, took a minute just to read the rules and by then i was 4th 😕
but this does raise the question I was trying to find the answer for I guess, which is, where are screen shots saved on the new launcher? I had to go back to tequilla to take and find screen shotsFor the past three hunts today, there has been an announcement put out in game. It's in bright orange GM lettering. Some of the previous submissions in this thread have it in their chat if you look closely.
The screenshots are saved in the same screenshot folder on the new COH Launcher as it was for the Tequila Launcher. The filepath doesn't change unless you move them yourself or install in a new location.

More General Feedback / Testing Notes:
- Beta patch notes should say Interrupt time, not Activation time (Thanks @macskull)

... but as it has been reiterated many times by players and developers alike in the past twenty pages of this thread, PvP is not the reason for this change.

Base Access
-
The GM-only command /enterbasefrompasscode is no longer available for players to use unconditionally, and can now only be used:
- Within 45 feet of a base portal (including the new summoned portals)
- Anywhere inside a Supergroup base
-
After using the Base Transporter / Base Teleporter power
- The command remains available until you move 20 feet from the location you used the power, or if you activate another power
- Two new powers which summon portable base portals have been added, and base teleporter powers have received some improvements (see below for details)
Whatever reasoning or philosophies, past quotes or paraphrasing you can find that has been put out by the team before now to make this get to the beta is irrelevant. Their decision on their server is to move it forward to this stage. The beta stage of testing - for the purpose of soliciting testing and feedback (not subjective opinion for the loudest folks who post the most).

I have a pretty fast SSD and I don't think I could have done that in less than ten seconds.
Absolute madlad.
Solid State Drives (SSD) and Non-Volatile Memory Express Drives definitely improve load times across games, especially in CoH/CoV. Absolutely recommend upgrading from a hard disk drive to an SSD if an individual is looking to make noticeable improvements in their gaming experience.

Nicely done, @Glacier Peak! I was on the forums, stepped away for one minute, and it was announced and won.
At this speed I guess you just have to be online, standing next to your pick, when it happens to be drawn.
Thank you, @FrauleinMental I had just finished mapping out all the new costumed NPCs and their locations in-game (like @GM Arcanum recommended in the original post) and was crafting for Fabricator in my SG base. One click on my villain base portal got me in front of Kalinda.
I was actually confused for a few seconds because there are two locations for Ms. Liberty (as subsequent posts show). 😅
This is a super fun event! I hope people don’t get discouraged by the folks in this thread thinking it requires camping, it does not require camping. Just hit follow on the thread and go haunt! You could feasibly improve your odds if you map out all the NPCs as previously mentioned, are either Rogue or Vigilante alignment (has access to all zones), open up the LFG tab for a quick TP to the NPC, or just sit in your SG base if it has portals to all zones – I mean there is a lot a player can do if they really want the fun prize!

Cool little event to have running. Sadly, I will be unable to participate as taking a screenshot crashes my game. It was a problem I had on Live that has apparently followed over to current day. Thankfully I'm not a screenie person so I've never bothered to report it here.
Until now, I guess. 🙂
If you're using Windows 10, you can try using the 'Screen Snipping App'. It's defaulted in the Windows Accessories folder in the program lists.

I think you missed an in-game easter egg opportunity by not making Mender Silos wear a Lord Nemesis costume 😄
Also could've been a funny switch if Faathim the Kind was wearing Rularuu the Raver costume (wouldn't fit in Chantry orb, but still!) or even Darrin Wade 😵

Nobody has them yet.
The date got bumped to 10/29
And they're starting at $700 for the 3080.
The 3090 is $1500.I'll revisit this question later. Hopefully someone snags one and can answer this before I get one lol

Where is this contact located?
I'm level 20
When I click on "find contact", he doesn't show up in the list.
There's an Agent Hassell located at (Platinum Lake: -2495.0, -83.9, -1355.0): that's within the Level 10-50 range. He's unlocked after acquiring the 'Villain Disruptor' Badge.
I don't know of any other agents though in that zone. Nobody named Watkins either.

So did anyone manage to snag a RTX 3000 series card? And if so, how does COH run with it?

I have class today that won't be over until 3:15 PST, but I can come after that.
Oh that works for me! I'll hop on around then. *Crosses fingers Miss Lib and Penny spawn*

That looks like the old siege npc model

Hey Glacier, when do you want to do Round 2?
Happy to try again same time again as last time, I think a little after 1PM PST / 3PM MST?

Posting this again partly because I don't know if it has been seen by our awesome volunteer devs and partly because I am hoping actual testing is valued a little more than just subjective opinions.
General Feedback & Testing Notes:
LONG RANGE TELEPORT ACCOLADE POWER
- After activating the Long Range Teleport Accolade power, a power tray pops up with the "Long Range Teleport Second Chance" power icon, allowing for a second attempt at using the power (much like the original T4 Teleport Pool Power). However, the icon that is displayed in this power tray is actually the T4 Long Range Teleport pool power icon and not the new icon given for the accolade teleport power.
Spoiler- Activating the LRT power as a hero displays twenty zones which are eligible for travel, assuming all exploration badges have been unlocked. The in-game description indicates only sixteen for heroes. Doing the same thing as a villain displays fourteen zones which are eligible for travel, assuming all exploration badges have been unlocked. The in-game description indicates only eight for villains. This is only slightly confusing, as a character that is either a Rogue or Vigilante has access to twenty seven zones. This may be due to the power itself not being tied to alignment. See screenshots below:
Spoiler- The description box for the Long Range Teleport Accolade power indicates that the following Paragon City zones can be unlocked: "Atlas Park, Brickstown, [...], Rikti War Zone, Rogue Isles, Skyway City...". Similar mislabeling is found in the following Rogue Isles zones that can be unlocked: "Port Oakes, Praetoria, Sharkhead Isles, ...". To alleviate any confusion, I would recommend removing the two underlined items in the description of the power, as well as reordering the zones which can be accessed via level progression or some other method.

This looks so awesome, can't wait to test it out. Thank you Homecoming volunteers for so many months of hard work!

Isn’t everyone gonna have the TP resist IO though?
Great question, and I'll do my best to answer this, but I believe both of the -TP resistance procs are not sure thing always prevents TP. They act like procs, some times firing and preventing tp, sometimes not. So it's not a guarantee protection, even though it's described as resistance. @macskullmight know this whether this is accurate though.

Why is Boomtown, already one of the most annoying zones to travel to, missing from Long Range Teleport?
Also, I'd really like to ask you, please, not to kill the sg portal access to the Echo zones. Making Ouroboros accessible at level 1 but only if someone else opens a portal for you is going to mean non-stop spamming of requests for portals in all the starting zones, and we really don't need more chat spam.
It doesn't appear on either the live or beta versions of the power. I'm assuming it's due to its status as a hazard zone because other hazard zones are also not included.

Winged Nuisance
- Defeat 500 Rularuu Natterlings of any rank
Hi, just out of curiosity, shouldn't this be '500 points worth of Rularuu Natterlings of any rank' to bring it in line with the Brutes and Overseers versions?
-
Folks, there is an important difference between the two long range teleport (LRT) versions right now worth pointing out.
- With the beta version, players are gaining access to an additional seven zones and losing access to one zone (Kallisti Wharf due to no explore badges currently).
Live version of LRT/Shadow Step:
SpoilerBeta version of LRT as a hero with all exploration badges.
- As I pointed out previously in this thread, the overall zone number accessible via LRT expanded to twenty seven zones (Vigilante/Rogue alignment), twenty zones for Heroes, and 14 zones for Villains, assuming all exploration badges for their respective zones have been acquired.

Oooh! I thought Flamebeux was a great pick, really well hidden inside the pyramid.
