    Ooooh, I can't wait to tease Cipher for this thread later lol.
  2. Hi everyone! Just as an update, the event has been extended to end with the maintenance next week!
  3. That "Pets" option has always been available in the settings, as a feature to enable. With the release of Issue 27, Page 7 - it was adjusted to ALWAYS be enabled as quality of life change.
  4. There is a link to join on the Getting Started tab! https://forums.homecomingservers.com/getting-started/ You should just be able to click the Discord link in there to join the server.
  5. Hey guys! ๐Ÿ˜„ For those of you don't know me, I'm Arcanum, I've been with the project since October 2019 - I tend to wear a lot of hats, which include a lot of the administrative stuff for the team, including trainings for the GMs and the Developers. So I wanted to chime in real quick with some comments. First is, I think there's a lot of valuable feedback in here - and (just like with the Focused Feedback threads ๐Ÿ˜‰) the team is already reading and internally reviewing what's being discussed here! I'm chiming in because I want to make sure that everyone knows that these feedback threads ARE being read and discussed - almost every comment and opinion ๐Ÿ˜„. Having said that, I don't want to deceive you with false expectations. There are times where the feedback is reviewed by the team and ultimately deemed invalid or not currently possible. As much as we'd like to reply to everyone's feedback, we are (at the end of the day) just a bunch of volunteers hoping to make a fun game for everyone - which means time is limited and it just isn't feasible. As always though, we appreciate the feedback - we're taking it, reviewing it, and hoping to learn & improve! As I think that's all any of us can do!
  6. Update - February 1st, 2024 Torchbearer has +50% XP. Reunion and Indomitable will remain at +100% XP. Everlasting has re-joined Excelsior to a standard +0% XP boost. In addition, the Spring Fling Event is now live!
  7. Hello everyone - The Spring Fling event is now live! Special missions are available from Ganymede, Scratch, DJ Zero, Jessica Megan Duncan and Arbiter Hawk in Pocket D Special Valentines tip missions will drop from any non-Incarnate enemies above level 20 Chilly and Dram are open for business in Pocket D In total: 7 badges and 7 temporary powers are up for grabs! You can use this Homecoming Wiki Link to see what's on offer. The event will last until the end of February - which is 29 days long this year, woohoo! The event has been extended until 3/12/24.
  8. Developers really ARE responsible for a bit of everything. If you have any experience in Art, Coding, Story-writing, etc - you can fill out an application here. Really any talents you think that may support the creative team feel free to fill out an app and let us know! Additionally, we are also recruiting for Game Masters who are responsible for Game/Forum/Discord Moderations, ticket support, etc. (Game Masters also run the in-game events like Costume Contests) - if that's more your speed, same link and click the game master app instead! Both are a greatly appreciated use of your volunteered time!
  9. You wouldn't believe the number of times I've asked for this too. The mesh was quite problematic, though. Luckily, we've picked up some talented artists along the way! ๐Ÿ˜
  10. We sure do! I have a whole folder of images dedicated to Jimmy dying on various missions if we need proof! ๐Ÿ˜„
  11. Hi everyone! Here are the results from the January 2024 Costume Contest! Thanks to everyone who made it out and joined us, we loved seeing everyone's creative costumes! You guys really made it a challenge, bringing us your best costumes! Open the spoilers for some shard specific photos. Did you guys take any good ones? Feel free to post them on the thread below! ๐Ÿ˜„ Please note that costume contest judging is subjective and everyone's tastes are different. Please be kind to our GMs who volunteer their time to keep these servers running as smooth as possible. ๐Ÿ…Contest Winner ๐Ÿ… The Giant Cicada Torchbearer Reunion Winner: Mr. Rabbit Lord Indomitable Winner: Liberty Reigns General Photos: ๐Ÿ“ท Reunion: Indomitable: Tochbearer: Thank you again to everyone that came out and joined us! We hope to see you all again soon!
  12. First of all, I'm so glad you were able to join us! Although I'm sorry you found things confusing! Were you following along the admin map prompts? We try and keep everyone up to date of our judging each step of the way. There was a BIG turnout (particularly on Torchbearer) resulting in two zone maps, so things were certainly hectic and the chats were flying. Typically all you have to do is show-up and stand in line with the other players, and the GMs will walk around examining them all! We then add the Finalists & Shard Winner onto our GM Team/League, and notify them on the steps of receiving their prizes. However, we also take each shard winner and compete them against one another for one ultimate contest winner. So those final results will be posted later today! We share the winners of each shard internally to the whole Homecoming Team (even the ones that couldn't make it) and we give everyone 24 hours to vote on their overall favorite. I'll be doing a follow-up post later tonight with the results! ๐Ÿ˜„
  13. Have you ever actually seen them together, though!? She just has premiere access to global teleporting and beats you to IP each time you get to her contact!
  14. I personally always take Fly. Usually for the convenience of being able to access anywhere on any map without any difficulties, or the need for extra temp powers (i.e. Jetpack).
  15. She's known to move around a bit; if a mob gets too close, she'll engage! It's fine, eventually she'll realize she's off centered and will shuffle back into place. You might shift around a bit too if you were standing in the same spot 24/7!
  16. Just avoid using powers that impact other players costumes (i.e. Steam Mist, Shadow Fall, etc) Yes! Echo Plaza is accessible via Pocket D or the TUNNEL Teleporter. You can attend both, but only one prize per player will be given. Do not use costume editing options not available/found in the game. Aether Prismatic Costume modifications ARE allowed. Using emotes or powers to disrupt the event (and other players costumes) will likely cause you to go to prison (IYKYK).
  17. Costume Contest! Torchbearer, Indomitable & Reunion Sunday, January 14th To help kick-off 2024, in addition to some fun in-game events currently happening, we'd like to start the year off with a Costume Contest! This is a general, anything-goes Costume Contest! Meaning, bring your best costume (within the bounds of the Code of Conduct) and join in the fun! Due to event taking place on a limited number of shards, please only bring one character per player. Multiboxing during this event may result in disqualification or the revocation of prizes. When? Reunion: Sunday, January 14th @ 8pm UTC (click to see 8pm UTC in your timezone) 11am Pacific time 3pm Eastern time 8pm UK time 9pm Central European time Torchbearer & Indomitable: Sunday, January 14th @ 10pm UTC (click to see 10pm UTC in your timezone) 2pm Pacific time 5pm Eastern time 10pm UK time 11pm Central European time Where? Echo Plaza on 3 shards (Torchbearer, Reunion, Indomitable). Heroes and Villains can reach Echo Plaza via TUNNEL Teleporter, Long Range Teleporter, or Pocket D (Truck near AE section). Prizes! Due to event taking place on a limited number of shards, the permanent golden title will be applied to a character of player's choosing on any shard. The single best overall costume will win: A permanent golden title: January 2024 Costume Contest Winner The Fashion Victim Badge 1500 Prismatic Aether Particle The best costume on each shard will win: A permanent golden title: January 2024 Costume Contest Finalist The Fashion Victim Badge 250 Prismatic Aether Particle The 4 runner-up costumes on each shard will win: A permanent golden title: January 2024 Costume Contest Runner-Up The Fashion Victim Badge 100 Prismatic Aether Particle Costume manipulation wont be considered legitimate in costume contests. Costume manipulation is not permitted and will result in disqualification. Please note that costume contest judging is subjective and everyone's tastes are different. Please be kind to our GMs who volunteer their time to keep these servers running as smooth as possible. If you have any issues, please contact a Lead Game Master here on the forums or on our discord!
  18. Hey there! I'll send you a DM with some options ^_^
  19. We can either replace your current permanent title or place the new title on a different character instead. If you win a contest, this information just needs to be communicated to the GM on your shard.
  20. Huh - it DOES look like it'd be useful for that, doesn't it? ๐Ÿ˜ It's also a debt free zone (so we can kill players to our heart's content) - for whatever reason that may be. Gosh, it sure does...you'd best check back soonโ„ข๏ธ - perhaps a doorway will appear.
