UltraAlt

It is very useful to those of us that had to tweak our game settings because Nvida's Geoforce didn't use to be able to tweak game settings on its own. Now Nvidia works with game manufacturers to set-up optimal settings for their games based on the specs of the Nvidia hardware on yours system that it knows are on your computer (you can set it automatically scan for game on start up or you can set it so it will only scan for new games manually when you tell it to do so). You can still change the settings, but it Geoforce will can automatically optimize the settings on many games. This is in the Geforce Experience. This is also handled through Geforce Experience. The game recording settings are handled through the Geforce Experience. Setting for this also handled in the Geforce experience. I'm assuming this is handled through the Geforce experience as well. Part of it is for monitoring how the card is behaving for the games on your system as feedback so that the can determine if there are issues with their hardware/software so that they can improve everyone's gaming experience. If you don't have the bandwidth and don't want the functions that can be very helpful, then I can see how you would be annoyed. On the other hand, you are disabling features that could allow your Nvidia card to function in what very well could be more optimal settings that what you are using. CoH tries to use an outdated version of PhysX. PhysX on current cards surpasses and bypasses the kind of PhysX that CoH is set-up to use. Just saying that I'm siding with working with G-Force ... or Science Ninja Team Gatchaman ... if you are old school like that ...

On some level there I think you are mistaken. I think your stance is also about people working as a team and letting the leader lead.

Obviously. Could always try for U(capital i)traVio(capital i)ent? Maybe people never ran into Parallel Illusion in the old days? As I recall they were a PVP group. All with the same "looking" name. Same costume and size. I have had two character names out of my 100+ characters that was already taken. One a friend had taken to hold onto for me until I decided to start playing. The other one - which was created for a project outside of gaming, that I had before the sundown on CoH, and I have in DCUO - was taken on Torchbearer (might not be taken on the other servers, but I haven't bothered looking). Tweaked part of the name and worked sent through the first time. Obviously, if the name isn't very creative, it's obvious. If it's obvious, obviously it has already been taken. Now I'm wondering if Obvious and Obviously are taken. Better grab Obviousman and Obvious Lad while you can ... or Obvious Jr (Junior?) Obviously Ultraviolent

For sure. From my point of view, they threw out the baby and keep the bath water. And then they had the nerve to retcon the RPG to fit the rules they used for the MMORPG (which were originally for their Marvel Universe game).

I'm assuming you have FSAA turned off. If you access options for the graphics card, try setting the card to let the game decide how to handle performance versus quality. Other option would be set to default, see if that takes care of it, and then increase settings from there.

I think there is a lot of prejudice brought to this statement. There are options to mitigate and the Nvidia software is a every powerful tool that I use aspects of pretty much every time I use my computer. There might be some drawbacks, but it seems like shooting yourself in the foot because your shoes look like everyone else's.

Or people could just discuss the topic versus bring preconceived bias to the conversation. Some people in the forums at this point just seem to be out to get certain people for whatever reason.

Well, that too is bad behavior. Bad behavior on their part doesn't excuse other people's bad behavior.

The OP was serious about their post. And I think they have a good point. To me there was nothing silly about it.

I saw what was being done in the post. It was making a mockery of the OP. Apparently, other post was as well. Very trolly of them. And I don't judge other people for that they do unless it is ruining other people's fun. I have read the entire thread other than those that I have on ignore. It seem you are intentionally being trolly as well.

His back story is just out there wide in the open and swingin the breeze for everyone to see.

Life is too short not to use the ignore button in some cases. I perhaps use it to liberally, but I don't have to deal with people that I feel are behaving badly. First time I went to a chat room on netscape about work related business with colleagues, one guy immediately jumped to the keyboard and begin typing in the most obnoxious stuff possible to annoy everyone else intentionally and then got into a word battle with them... on the company account. Yes. Trolls do exist. The guy was giggling happily as he was intentionally annoying other people ... on the company account. The guy is pretty much a jerk in real life as well. Other people were laughing along with him because we as an alpha bully type. I'm just sitting there thinking how bad it was making the company look but not being out number in the situation. Oddly enough (or is that "obviously for good reason"?), the company held no more group access to the internet with the company account to discuss business related ideas with people in the same field.

Agreed. I rarely use the Ouro. I agree. It appears to be another reason that NoPantsMan is seen to be a villain in most countries around the world.

As long as you don't use XP buffs from the P2W, I don't think you outlevel content at +2 level. It was so long ago, but I think that before the noterity thing there was a way to set it at a couple of different difficulty levels and +2 is the equivalent of what is the highest level that was originally intended to be set up too. I think it can go without saying that you can always go and do missions below your level in the Ouroboros and it will set your character to the intended arc level until you complete the content. This seems to fit with the "read-all" mind set. Do your teams do a lot of roleplaying chat in general during your missions?

That is what someone else said, but I haven't checked it out yet. I haven't made a new alt since then. It's been a busy week. I usually start out at +1, 1 and then move up as the character is able to handle it. I was usually on +2, 2 as soon as slotted with SO's, but I wait to get a couple more powers at this point since SO's are available so low at this point. I progress difficulty from there. Setting to a level to make it difficult but not impossible to beat for solo or the team that I'm with. I know others that do that. I know this one player that will copy-and-paste everything into /team that the rest of the team can't see ... if you let them. I can see how that can be fun to read everything (the DEVs did take time to put there for people to read), but I usually don't take the time to do it most of the time. Especially the clues. I hardly ever read those ... even though I take time to write them out in AE missions that I create.

And, yet, you continue to post a complaint about other people who are - in your viewpoint - complaining and, meanwhile, asserting you are superior. That does not show maturity. I'm wondering just how old you are. Many of us are well over 50.

I would suggest warning the team in general in /team before kicking someone. I usually give the players three chances.... unless they are being a complete jerk and did something that warned against people doing and their actions cause a total team wipe. They get kicked immediately. If they want to know why they were kicked, I tell them that they were warned. If their first tell is that I'm a [insert insult here] for kicking them, then I put them on ignore. The players that are truly jerks intentionally are few and far between in THE CITY .. the heroes part at least. I don't play much on the Villain side and I don't start in Praetoria (hard to avoid Praetorian missions as they get mixed in with normal content at a certain level.

You're robbing people of the enjoyment of playing the mission as a team. If you are the team leader, great. If you aren't the team leader, then you should ask the team lead if they want you rushing around doing your own thing instead of acting as part of the team. If all you want to do is rush around doing your own thing at your own speed, why did you join to be part of a team? Is it an ego thing? There are a good number of players that don't want to be power-leveled. Most people aren't playing to see how fast they can get through a mission. It's a boring issue of Justice League when they show up to solve something and .... -Page 1 - Panel 1- Superman is standing around as the rest of the Justice League arrive at the area overlooking [the enemy, problem, world disaster] Page width panel Superman Great. You finally go here. -Page 1 - Panel 2- Justice League in a circular group. Superman is a blur rushing away and back from wherever. Page width panel Batman Okay, we are ... Superman Problem solved. Is there something else we need to do here? Aquaman Again?! Really?! - Page 1 - panel 3 - Superman flying off. Rest of the JL shrugging, pointing, and other emotes. half page width panel Superman Ah. I see we are supposed to go to [insert place that is obvious to go to next in the storyline]. I'll wait for you there. - Page 1 - Panel 4 - Green Arrow pointing at Batman. Batman standing resolute with the other JL members standing around him - other than Superman who flew off last panel. half page width panel Wonder Woman We really need to ... Batman Not here. We are team. We will discuss it later. - Page 2 - Panel 1- Justice League assembled at the JL Satellite (or wherever they are retconned to hang out at this point) sitting/standing around (whatever they are sitting and standing in around in their retconned base environment these days). Flash Are you sure he can't hear us? Batman Almost entirely sure. We do have the (insert good reason that Superman can't hear them talking... vacuum of space or what not). - Page 2 - Panel 2- Close up of Aquaman and whoever is standing/sitting to either side of him. Aquaman I say we take a vote. We don't even let Superman know about what we are doing until we at least get a chance to try to solve the problem. - continues on for the rest of the issue with discussion about various situations where it isn't necessary to alert Superman immediately in order to save the lives of bystanders, protect property, avert wars, etc.- - Final page - 3nd to last Panel - Batman Then it's decided. We won't talk about this again. - Final page - 2nd to last Panel - Superman zooming into the room with the JL assembled some walking off. Superman So what aren't we going to talk about again? Cyborg We decided never to order a pizza with pineapple and anchovies ever again. - Last page - last panel - Superman with a quizzical look on his face. Superman ??? Might be fun for you. How does the rest of the team feel about it?

Yep. Idiots do that. They don't know any better.

There isn't one, and I don't want it either. I try to stay until the general area is clear and/or head out when the leader does. I try not to leave others behind if they look like they are in trouble. The people that give you the thumbs-down are, of course, the ones that are the perpetrators.

Lusca is great, but I'd like to have other threats added to the water in general. Even if they are just Coralax swimming around in the water like a player character. Sharkshead Isle with no sharks in the surrounding waters?! Come on!
