[What value is Force Shield?]

Why they are different is probably because if a typo somewhere.  The one in the combat attributes is the one i would trust for the actual value to the character.  Which one its supposed to be i have no idea though.

[Change the attack button color.]

I switch the window to advanced mode and then drag some of those buttons to my bar.  I usually play whack a mole at that point but those power slots are bound to the extra buttons on my mouse so i sometimes command my pets with them.

Two and a half years later, Homecoming is still the only server that utilizes 64 bit, both server side and client side.  'Nuff said, really.

Forgive me if I’m being dumb here, but would it be possible for HC to implement some of the more stable changes being implemented on the other rogue servers? Or would that be considered gauche?

 

The changes made by homecoming have been so extensive,  including 64-bit support,  that any code made for city of heroes on other servers likely wouldnt work at all and have to be totally rewritten.  Also,  yes,  i feel that the team here prefers to use content of their own design and not that of others.  Although that is pure opinion on my part,  i dont represent the team in any way.

[Influence sink...good? bad?]

You generally get very opposed views on these types of topics.  Im not for or against it but im fairly certain it wont happen.  All of the 'higher' currencies can convert into 'lower' currencies but not the other way around.  

 

Those who dont like running itrials and raids will tend to agree while those who feel trials will 'die' if you can get emps for influence will disagree.

 

I can say with a fair degree of certainty that if a hard to get item suddenly became available from an easy to get item that the easy to get item would have its value significantly changed and the entire economy would change with it.  Some digging should reveal a post from a team member stating that they arent making changes that will significantly effect the economy.

Street Fighting Girl (woman made the name too long)

 

With no spaces in the name woman would fit.  Just keep each word capitalized and people will be able to easily read it.  Your preference of course for removing spaces to fit more words.  There should be room for 1 space - StreetFighting Woman is 20 characters. 

[superadine raids, and why Heroes suck]

I havent ran into this problem yet.  But my group of friends probably has alot to do with that now.  Most of them dont want to play massively single-player so there tends to be a few people willing to join any team.

[Big goal achieved after we been trying for a while !]

Nice work there.  Thanks for the screenshot too or I wouldnt have known where this feat was accomplished.

[Praetorian TT Underutilized]

Can we keep this sweet ride after crossing over from Praetoria to primal earth?  I need to chauffeur my friends around with this after I leave.  Or maybe I'll never leave Praetoria but then there wont be any use for it since there are no missions at level 50.  An alternate choice at the tailor would be wonderful.

 

[MASSIVELY: Has Homecoming torched the plans of City of Heroes successors?]

Im thinking homecoming and other city of heroes servers wont make much difference for the development of those games.  Unless something changes and homecoming starts an ad campaign,  this is still pretty much a word of mouth game.

 

There would be some overlap but generally speaking,  people will usually choose private server or retail server so they are only kinda in competition with each other.

[It's the end of the world... and then some!]

No i mean galaxy city where GM Bot is chillin.  I wanna take a screenshot with him.

[It's the end of the world... and then some!]

Most zones have a way out.  Im still poking around 2 of them though.  Still havent found a way to galaxy city 😞

[Damage vs. Defense Debuff]

Consider defense debuff as reverse team accuracy.  You and your team miss less on the effected target.  If you have team accuracy buffs and arent missing to begin with then defense debuff isnt doing anything.

 

Now -resistance is a different story.  That makes everyone hit that target for more damage and is great on teams against high HP targets.

[Frequent crashes in my base]

I couldnt get the drop in fps,  but i did lose connection to mapserver while trying to get the positioning right.  I dont have time right now to try again but losing connection to mapserver is an uncommon occurence for me. 

[Mission summary wrong]

If official missions are anything similar to AE then the field for what to display when there is more then 1 thing to do and the field for when u are on the last thing are the same.  Essentially a typo,  but it certainly looks like a bug in that specific case. 

[What is the ideology of the Council?]

When the council replaced the 5th column back on the retail servers it pretty much felt like it was just the devs trying to move away from the nazi references.  But we just got nazis from space instead of nazis from earth.  Change the name,  slap on a fresh coat of paint and presto,  no more nazis.

[New LFG Error Message]

Its because i was there and the game breaks when im around.  I got that same message when you qued up that renault.

[The secret zone events of Nova Praetoria]

Here they are,  i tried to size them down since the screenshots were huge.  turns out they are still pretty big but its a closer shot then the others.  the last one is hamidon's mouth without the water blocking the view.

Ill try and have a character in position for some decent pictures next time.  Would u like a shot of hamidons mouth from first ward as well?

[Pv2 Vendor sell a Permanent or temp hold power]

Would need to check the magnitude and duration of the dart with the green mito on weakened hamidon.  Id say if 4 players using the dart can do it,  then thats reasonable to expect them to do so on a team with no holds.  Im not at home currently to check the numbers though.
