  1. Well that escalated....

     

    Cheers for the suggestions folks. I'm not short on alts but i do enjoy playing my 50's too.

     

    "Do you need advice on how to play CoH? Are you looking for help with a build or finding content?  Do you have a suggestion to improve gameplay?  Have you tried asking in-game and found to hard to get the information you need?  Then the Homecoming forums are for you.  We provide many boards for you to post in, and we have several thousand forum posts ready to hear you out!

     

    Required Warning:  Side effects of posting in the forums include frequent criticism, threads moving way off-topic, and side arguments between posters.  Other common side effects can include anxiety, rage, and frustration.  If you experience those side effects you should step away from the forums and do something less frustrating like folding clothes, putting away dishes, calling your mom (that's 50/50 on helping) or playing City of Heroes."

     

    You forgot to mention Perma-Haten.

  2. Unfortunately we still have no update on Justin at this time' date=' but we're hoping to bring it back later this week. Our provider is still performing network analysis to track down the issues people have been encountering.[/quote']

     

    Still no news on a eta?  :(

     

    Nope. OVH continues to be sluggish.

  3. 7/9/19

     

    All shards will be restarted at 1300 UTC (0900 Eastern US time; 1 hour from now). Estimated downtime is 15 minutes.

     

    EDIT:

    All shards should now be operational. As usual, the AH and AE may take a few minutes to stabilize.

  4. this doesnt actually work. The music/backgrounds are offset and mangled (going rogue uses the freedom theme for example) and it resets if you ever go back to the login screen or quit to login/css from in-game.

     

    It does, just evidently not the way you want it to. The reset has always been a thing - it's based off of whatever side the toon you just logged out of was, just like it was on live pre-Freedom. If you really want the Freedom menu and theme, go dig them out from the i24 piggs and stick them in the data folder, mimicking the folder structure exactly (I think loading screens are [install folder]/data/texture_library/loading_screens or something like that).

  5. I once knew a guy who was able to....

     

    Perma-haten. That fool was rollin'.

     

    Everyone was always trying to catch him riding dirty.

     

    I asked him how he had so much haten, he said...

     

    "I got 5 on it."

     

     

    It takes mad skills to perma Haten. A pure legend!

     

    Is Perma Haten going to lead to people dupin rares and jerk hacking?

     

     

    (Is Perma Haten this boards first thing)?

     

    By the power vested in me by... well, me, mostly, I henceforth declare Perma Haten GONE TO THE AMERICANS! Please abuse it.

  6. I don't know about the character select background, but you should be able to set your preferred login theme with -uiskin in launch parameters. -uiskin 1 is CoV, -uiskin 2 is GR. (0, for reference, is CoH. There's not one for Freedom; so if you want that you'll need to do some much more complex mucking about.)

  7. Again, there's nothing to revert. The change was not targeted at Rage at all. Rather, it was a consequence of a larger rewrite of powers code to change how stacking worked to fix some other bugs, that also happened to fix this... shall we say, feature. There are no plans to un-rewrite powers code, to my knowledge.

  8. 7/3/19

     

    Justin will be shut down in a few hours until midnight UTC tomorrow in order to allow our host (OVH) to perform tests related to the UDP packet loss that some of our players are experiencing.

     

    EDIT: after two weeks, it returns!

  9. It hasn't been a universal issue... for whatever reason, it's only affected some people.

     

    That being sad, we think the issue has resulted from running the turnstile server (the thing that actually handles LFG) cross-shard, instead of one per shard. You may ask, "y u do dis?", but apparently that was how it worked on Live. We're moving it back to per shard Soon™.

  10. 7/2/19

     

    All shards will be restarted today at 1330 UTC (0930 Eastern US time; 1 hour from now) for maintenance. Estimated downtime is 30 minutes.

     

    Also, Justin will be going down for extended maintenance later today. Estimated downtime (for Justin only) is several hours.

     

    EDIT:

    All shards should now be operational. Discord also had a hiccup.

     

    Justin will be going down soon for extended maintenance.

     

    EXTRA EDIT:

    Justin is back up. Please be aware you will need to restart Tequila to access it.

     

    The auth database for Justin was updated from the production servers, so people with newer accounts can now use Justin.

  11. Hello, world. Herein I will document urgent known issues with the game.

     

    7/1/19 - Admiral Sutter TF

     

    We are aware of an issue with the final mission where, on occasion after killing both Durays, the mission fails to complete. We are not certain of the cause. It has been suggested that this might be caused by one Duray getting too far from their combat area, so we would suggest not kiting either of him. If this fails, please let us know using the ticketing system (https://support.homecomingservers.com/). We will be happy to complete any stuck missions.

  13. Could a GM or the OP edit this post every week and Strike out the ones that are over, so we could quickly find the current one?

     

    Well, I moved them to the bottom of the post - does that work for you?
