  1. Signatures don't display while in mobile view. Switch to desktop view if you want to see.
  2. Finally got around to watching this a year later. I thought it was true to the series. Classic villains, chases, and mcguffin. Spoilers ahead:
  3. Great way to start a wall of text! Edit: Oh and welcome back! Edit 2: I think even without the Double XP temp active, and aside from turning off XP entirely, one could start intentionally incurring debt after Level 10 as a way to slow their leveling journey. Debt is rather trivial at this point.
  4. To answer your first question, no. There are only player-led (sometimes HC-sponsored prizes) or player-created events these days for PvP in the Arena and PvP zone play occasionally on Excelsior if you're interested. There is some aspect to grinding for enhancements needed to "max out" aspects of a build for any given situation, but the journey was made much easier by the Homecoming team for folks interested solely in PvP (an instant Level 50 that is secluded to PvP zones/Arena/ Pocket D only).
  5. Making and breaking things takes time. Ideas from different volunteers start out as concepts, sometimes they get implemented, sometimes not, only for the outcome to be unsatisfactory once finally tested by other volunteers. In my opinion, it's reasonable to ask what's going on with development. I would say to folks who are both curious AND interested in supporting the development of content to go join the closed beta testers. Or look at other ways to support this gaming community if you have the time.
  6. This area if you have trouble finding it.
  7. That's true, but the work around is just TP'ing your teammate(s) on to the ground under where the Null the Gull truck is parked. Underneath that spot, on the dirt ground, there is an area that makes the reticle white and allows it. Then they can just walk out of that area and start exploring.
  8. Yes, it's been there since the legacy days and it's remained there for folks on Homecoming to explore as well.
  9. @Scarlet Shocker @Shenanigunner is referring to this (I made it a few years ago, but it's all still there if you want to explore:
  10. I just got some hot Cocoa mix for the ongoing snow lately. I am also a fan of everything else you listed.
  11. Great thread topic idea @Scarlet Shocker! I logged in to City of Heroes for the first time in Issue 0, early 2004, but actually stopped playing CoH before sunset and didn't know about the game closing until years later. To answer your original question, I haven't stayed in any one similar to CoH gameplay genre, but I went through many games since legacy days: RPGs (The Legend of Dragoon [many times], Final Fantasy X and XV [many times], the Kingdom Hearts series, Conan Exiles [currently], and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (many times)). Survival games (No Man's Sky, Satisfactory, Stranded Deep, Ark, Conan Exiles (double tap for multiple genres), The Long Dark, Subnautica, and Raft). Action/Adventure games (Batman Arkham series, Tomb Raider series, God of War series, Assassins Creed series, A Plague Tale series, and Firewatch). Strategy games (Civilization [every Civ game 3 and after, but I love 5 the most!]) Shooters (Master Chief Collection, Halo 5 and Halo Infinite [😢]) Edit: I know I'm missing some, but that's what I remember at the moment. I also did a lot of living (undergrad, married, military, grad degrees, busy career) between when I stopped playing CoH and when I started back up in 2019. And I discovered I like running a lot, so that is my main hobby outside video games.
  12. You'd likely find a better informed response from folks over on the PvP Fight Club Discord - they've got builds, strategies, and folks are always helpful with advice and testing. Edit: Oops, meant to include the link: https://discord.gg/knq839NUM4
  13. Statesman and Lord Recluse were around during the Great War, so they both must've been involved in the next war after that (World War 2) .
  14. Look in the Accolade Power - Long Range Teleporter macro power.
  15. Ah yes, my gripe about those darn gigantic healthpools with no engagement or fighting mechanic that rewards no experience or infamy. Terrible decision on behalf of whoever decided to make it thus.
  16. What happened to these episodes?? They put out 4 then stopped, is that the end of the season?
  17. You're in good company - I've been snacking on pistachios lately for what I've been told are healthy reasons.
  18. Got that Gotham vibe, cool pictures.
  19. Hopefully with plenty of liquids. Ibuprofen with no chaser always wrecks my intestines at least.
  20. I've taken to grabbing a pair of microfiber towels for use at my computer desk. One for cleaning the dust off of my monitors and the other for getting the chip and snack dust off my fingers lol
  21. Animal crackers are awesome! I used to love eating red licorice when I'd get them in MREs, specifically the Red Vine brand.
  22. I discovered the wonderful relationship between nachos and gaming many years ago. Recently I thought of how CoH/V have elements of 'doing something then waiting' in its gameplay, so snacks work their way in pretty easily. I'm quite fond of pitaschios and a nice cold black tea. If I'm playing for more than an hour or two, I like to have more than one thing to snack on. Or if I'm on auto pilot, I'll eat a meal and play while watching a movie or something like that. What about you?
