What about per zone instance? (like Atlas 1, 2, 3)
Highly variable. In theory Atlas (and Kallisti) can hold up to 200, and other zones 100, but because of a memory leak in mapserver, a map instance will more likely cap out once it's consumed 1.8 GB of RAM, which can happen at any population.

Around 2500 per shard.

Tough project there, convincing someone to intervene in a market to correct a non-existent inflation.
It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it, and Mr. User is apparently well-qualified.

Well, it is true, four GMs have responded here and are actively trying to understand what Mr. User is asking. Mind you, we're just GMs, we don't set economic policy, and I'm the only one of us who was even in the room when the market was seeded. We're not really looking at major policy changes, here, unless Mr. User really convinces me and I send it to Jimmy.

He means WoW Classic, I imagine. Since the core CoH population has always been rather disdainful of WoW, I'd guess "not much, if at all".

The way I'm reading this is that the staff would prefer we flesh out builds by playing converter roulette. If that's what we're supposed to do that makes a lot of the rest of this mostly a matter of educating the playerbase. I can make Enhancement Converters a big deal. I guess I have to live with that.
Well, no. We don't care how you flesh out your builds, exactly. We do care about providing people with multiple ways to do so, and we also care about limiting the endemic market PvP from live Beyond that, the economy is going where it's going - hang on for the ride.
For your edification, I'll also tell you that we didn't set the rates for salvage. Those were devised by Leo and his GMs years ago in order to limit market PvP and let people focus on playing the actual game to build their characters rather than the market.

Is there a way to change my default to Going Rogue for the log in screen?
In Tequila, click the options button, then type -uiskin 2 into launch parameters.

Usually, zones aren't actually full, they're draining. There's a memory leak in mapserver instances once they've eaten up about 2 GB of RAM, so to prevent this we close off the map at 1.8 GB. It doesn't open back up.

Regrettably, you are correct. It's been a busy month behind the scenes, but we hope to get back to doing events Soon™.
-
If I'm correct, this is just the standard respec glitch... try relogging and hopefully that will bring back slotted enhancements.
-
I would note that we're not really in the business of limiting options or significantly changing how the game works to appease a subset of the population. Also, I feel reasonably certain that your idea isn't actually possible; presumably the SG cap checks every character in the character db and doesn't check the auth db, which it would need to, since handles don't exist outside the chatserver. Rewriting the code in such a way would presumably be a horrific pain, and there are many other things our coders would rather spend their time on that would improve the experience for everyone rather than cause a riot. So, no, we're not going to set up joining SGs by account.

Edit: done.

Is "off-topic" then forbidden on the boards, or is General Discussion ok for "Nerd Culture". Seems silly we can't talk about Superheroes on a Superhero game forum...
Maybe a new vote with new boards? 🙂
Until the situation gets settled, I'd say General Discussion is fine so long as CoH stuff doesn't get crowded out.

That was actually a section within 'For Fun!' in the old forums. I think it might be too narrow for the name of a new section.
Yes, I was there, you know. ☺️
2 minutes ago, The Philotic Knight said:Yeah, I'd really prefer it be some sort of generic "off topic" forum, but maybe related to culture so that it's known that it's not a political forum. (Although I personally would love to have a political forum, I understand why you'd want to stay away from having one)
I asked about a generic "off topic" forum some weeks ago, and it got vetoed.

And if you do, perhaps we should call it Comic and Hero/Villain Culture?

I believe there are plans for red and goldside themes, we just want to get the blueside theme in a state everyone is more-or-less happy with first.
-
Part of your issue, I imagine, is that PMs here are stored as mini-threads. Because of the comically barebones way SMF handles PMs, every PM you had there is now an individual mini-thread. I suppose I'd suggest going through and seeing if you have any quote chains and deleting some of the excess there. When Cipher rises from his slumber, I imagine he'll look into it - a lot of the issues with limits are just default settings we didn't change.

[RESOLVED] Tequila cannot fetch the manifest
in Help & Support
Posted
Okay - for the moment (and I want to emphasize that like the last time, this is a temporary manifest) you can add http://patch2.homecomingservers.com/manifest.xml to Tequila (in options at the bottom) and play.
