[Mastermind pets should die on level change]

They die when your level changes because of an exploit that gave a lvl 1 mastermind access to lvl 49 minions.  Now if your level changes your pets die to prevent this.  Maybe it wasnt the most convenient for the player but this is what the OG devs did to fix the problem.

[Zombie XP Needs To Rise...]

Our league leader says if you are getting little or no xp to drop group and be reinvited because its a bug.  Later it was said to be a bug with incandesence teleport.  Its never happened to me so i cant say for sure.

[Banner "Color Dots" Disappearing From Map]

Its hard to say if the game is bugged or if the map mod is causing a map issue.  You would need to have the same problem without a map mod installed to indicate the bug is with the game.

 

We have been running trick or treat pretty hard with a full league in PI for several hours since the event started and 1 time someone said they couldnt see the dots.  It was assumed that because there was 10+ people at each that the clutter of arrows was blocking the view but maybe the dots werent there at all.  Unfortunately we didnt investigate further as our ToT league keeps moving really fast between each event location.

[What villain group would you join?]

Spetsnaz Commandos.

 

Heroes wear their underwear on the outside.

 

Villians go commando.

[Can we get a server with issue12 ? pre!13 changes ?]

I think paste without formatting stops that.  Possibly edit and change the font color.  Ive only typed out my posts from in the forum and dont change the fonts so i cant say for sure what would work.

[Dominators need Illusion Control]

I believe one of the reasons it hasnt been ported over is because phantom army would make it too powerful.  But the main reason people wanted it was for phantom army.  Most likely illusion control wont be directly ported over.  If dominators get something it will probably be heavily modified.

[Windows 11 and gaming performance]

The last decent version of windows had 3d pinball - space cadet.  All versions of windows without it clearly have no love for gamers.

[Nerf Level Shifts]

Most other MMOs i played didnt have the ability for a high level character to join a lower level team so they didnt have to balance being over powered.  They would just release a new raid where your current gear wasnt good enough and had an endless cycle of collecting the current gear that was better then your old gear.  They would often increase the level cap during this process as well.  These MMOs are 'growing up' and often excludes under geared characters from participation in high end content.

 

In contrast,  City of Heroes is 'growing out'.  New content is being added but all of the 'gear' is obtainable by anyone and not locked behind the top end raid.  And with so many players making characters that can solo the game at +4x8,  there is no nerf that could possibly work at making the game too easy on current content.  

 

Cobalt mentioned a new level of challenge is in the works and we will just have to wait till it makes it over to the test server and give it a shot.

[Can't make CoH run in true fullscreen.]

Assuming you are using the homecoming launcher you can click the settings icon on the top right and then click the homecoming tab.  Under extra launch parameters type

 

-fullscreen 1

 

This is the only setting im aware of and it may just force the borderless window but it might force a normal fullscreen.  Hopefully it works for you.

It's fixed now.  The patch or "full" restart fixed it.  Got my badge, feel free to break it again.

 

I was working that morning and couldnt lead the prisoners to a successful escape that time.

[What's the deal with the solo mission at the end of the KR arc?]

Then you become a villain and beat up BAB? 

Why is that mission there? 

 

Because red side is best side.

 

If I got to beat up Manticore instead it would be the best mission in the game.

[auto-accept license and bypass cut scenes]

I don't think wall vs door matters, but if everyone has done it. Of course I could probably count the number of times that has happened on one hand.

 

I can count the number of times its happened for me on zero hands.

 

Ive been able to personally skip the baf cutscene trigger.  But the robots dont spawn until after the scene has been triggered.

Confirmed it with the forum now as well

 

 

[Arachnos Widows]

If i recall, the OG devs didnt want VEATs to have an inherent at all.  And the sad numbers on conditioning were to fulfill the player mindset of every AT is supposed to have an inherent.

[NPC bugged]

Same thing happened to us last night.  Im thinking hes supposed to pull a Castillo and teleport away so he becomes an invalid target.  But like a true villian, he cheats and continues combat.

[Continual daylight in Echo Plaza]

During official costume contests there are plenty of GMs around and they can change it to day time in true Truman Show fashion.  This could be useful for player run events though.

[Nerf Level Shifts]

Hard mode - call it 'Challenge Mode' instead.

 

Edit : or 'Incarnate Challenge Mode' as i realize a setting called challenge mode under challenge settings might be slightly confusing as to what it does.

[Can we get a server with issue12 ? pre!13 changes ?]

Its my understanding that we dont have the code from anything other then the last version of he game before shutdown.  And the game is moving forward, not backward.  If pvp changes are made it will probably be with future balance in mind.  Not because people want to be un-nerfed.

[Stuck in The Great Escape]

I was is Neutropolis doing the great escape event and i was doing the defeat ghouls path.  In the underground section at the first large door where you need to defeat 30 ghouls to proceed,  i got stuck inside that large door.

 

Clicking before 30 kills results in a 'you cannot enter' popup.  However, a low health ghoul was running away and opened that door to escape.  I tried to follow it but was still correctly denied access and was now standing inside the space that the door will occupy when closed.

 

The door did close on me and i was stuck.  I could still fire at the ghouls and they could still attack me but i couldnt move.  I ultimately died and failed the event and it only occured to me later to try /stuck so i dont know if that would have even freed me. 

 

Its not exactly something i want to try to replicate again since the event is on a 1 hour timer.  But if the ghouls could be prevented from opening the door while its locked would be great.

Should be easiest for you unless i restrict keybinds.  =D

[Wanted: Screenshot of In-game Praetorian Hamidon]

Could have sworn there was no way out on that mission.  Maybe i was in a different one.

[Nerf Level Shifts]

I like being a super hero.  Lets all raise a torch for the first super hero killed in this game...

 

..../regen

 

We honor your sacrifice.  May no hero ever be forced into sidekick-dom ever again.

[Show me your UI!]

And now do it all again but limit yourself to 640x480 resolution 😛

[Stone Armor with minimal FX?]

Bio armor is fairly durable,  i rarely use ablative carapace.  But i also pushed it to a bit over 3k hp to take advantage of more regen.

 

I would like granite armor to be a little less....granite though.

[Just ran an ITF, Suggestions for some players ....]

Your job as the tank is to be completely overpowered but to play like you arent so tanks dont get nerfed.
