[Copy everything Thunderspy has done with Masterminds and other stuff.]

Alright everyone, take it easy.

Whenever a suggestion like this comes up, I like to inform/remind folks that not only is it not "easy" to just plug and play stuff from other servers, but that we wouldn't do so without signed permission. Just because it's "out there" doesn't mean that Homecoming considers it "up for grabs". If/when we ever do get MM customization, we'll do it our own way.

Also this thread had turned into crap, so, locking it up.

 

[Excel down again. Ouch]

Yeah, sorry for the mess. We're still investigating, though it seems fine as I type this.

[Professional Drama Linked to Life on Earth Involving Statesman, States-men, and Negatron.]

I'm just... going to shut this down before you get meme'd on, or worse.

Be well.

Looks like the thread is spinning around the drain now.

 

I concur.

Sorry all, but let's just let this whole thing drop for now, alright?

[Katie Hannon TF, Mission #2... Amy pathing in caves, gets stuck in walls.]

And i just realized: when this happens, please send a support ticket! If a GM is available, we can unstick her. At the very least, we can get a metric on how often she's actually getting stuck.

[Katie Hannon TF, Mission #2... Amy pathing in caves, gets stuck in walls.]

This is an issue the devs are aware of, and I thought they patched it?  Maybe it's a "coming soon" thing.

 

Either way... what's happening is that her "default stance" is the hovering sitting pose. If she loses sight of her escort, she assumes this stance for a moment, clipping her into geometry.

 

We're not looking to change the mission ... the TF takes a very small amount of time as is. I feel like removing the escort would come with a merit reward deduction, as the escort is the only thing that takes any amount of time (except an underprepared team against 10 AV ambushes in a row)

[Is there such a thing as societal norms in CoH?]

While it's not your (or anyone else's) responsibility to police the build choices of others, I wonder if in this case, it might have been beneficial to reach out to the player in question? "Hey, I see you're dying a lot and not able to keep up. Is everything okay?" Based on your description, I would go so far as to say their powers weren't even enhanced at all. Though this would be putting yourself out there, and not everyone always has the time or patience to walk someone through building their character. At the very least, you could point them to a few guides or the Help channel or something.

It's hard to distinguish malice from ignorance, especially online. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, and I would hope (but know it's too much to expect) others to, as well. That's the kind of culture we'd like to cultivate 😃
 

[Hurricane (from Storm Summoning) making people physically ill?]

So, I just hid a lot of posts. Like, half the thread, damn.

Allow me to make a few things clear here, folks.

The Homecoming Devs and staff want CoH to be a game that is open and accessible to EVERYONE. If there are certain effects or powers that cause issues, even if it's just for a small number of people, we WANT to know. The devs actually previously spent a LOT of time with a single player who had issues with Disruption Arrow's FX. BUT, we need to know who these players are so we can get their feedback on any potential changes. We'd hate to just blindly guess what would work, only to make things worse! So please, encourage anyone having issues to submit a ticket or make a thread detailing what's going on, so we have something to work with.

Second, allow me to reiterate part of our Code of Conduct:
 

The following is considered prohibited content:

• Hate speech:
  • Hate speech is defined as anything threatening or abusive towards a specific group based on their race, religious beliefs, political affiliation, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity

I'd consider "Getting sick from seeing fx on a screen" to be pretty darn debilitating. So I'd like people to more carefully consider their objections when suggestions like these are made. I'm all for back-and-forth and constructive criticism and disagreements, but if it's seeped in "I don't care about your disability", then it's not valid to post.

Thank you. Let's keep it kind!

[Any teaser what is being worked on?]

Just letting everyone know that we GMs are still watching this thread... Keep a lid on those spoilers! There's always a chance things will change or get dropped from the update, so, we don't want to tease things that might not even make it to Live.
 

I was gonna make some cheeky comments with some hinty-semi-spoilery stuff, but, I decided against it. Sorry! But I will say that work on Page 4 is coming along nicely. Sadly, I don't have a time-frame for ETA to Open Beta. I would guess that we'll have something for you all sooner rather than later, but that's all it would be, a guess.

[Is there any possibility for a west coast (or western Canada) server?]

I can certainly appreciate your desire to play the game smoothly. Unfortunately, we don't have any current plans to open any new shards, or move/merge any existing ones.

I'm not saying these things will never happen, just that it isn't in the cards at the moment. Sorry =(

[Power Surge (Electric Armor): Purpose/effect of hold enhancement sets ?]

Yeah, we do prefer questions about powers going in either the archetype forum, or the respective archetype subforum. So, moved 😃

As for the other threads you may have found while searching, well, those were from a while ago, and we try not to move too many older threads around if we don't have to.

[Shinobi-Iri and Infiltration]

Questions about scrapper characters should go into the Scrapper section; thanks 😃 (And also, topic moved)

[Excelsior MSR and Hami raid times?]

While General might get "more views", you might not necessarily get the specific answers you're looking for, so I'll be moving this thread to the Excelsior section 😃

[Possible to flip the salvage market?]

40 minutes ago, Rokkeb said:

I noticed that too, but just on a few specific yellow salvage. I just put in bids for 5555, and logged off. when i logged back in the next day i had the amount I needed. But it was annoying to see that those yellow salvage were selling for 50-100k

 

I may be misunderstanding, and if so, I apologize, but:

This should not be the case. ALL Uncommon salvage is bucketed. That is to say, if you sell a Mutant Blood Sample, and I want a Sapphire, the game will sell me your Mutant Blood Sample and turn it into a Sapphire. So there should be no "This uncommon salvage going for 5k while another piece goes for 50k".

Now, timing wise, yes, the prices can fluctuate wildly in the span of a given day, and sometimes the UI displays the wrong history. But individual pieces shouldn't have their own prices.

[What are your "ignore" habits and why?]

*sigh*

Look, we don't have a "No thread Necromancy" rule, but now it just looks like drama is getting stirred up again, so, locking it up.

[Babbage Badge]

Moved thread to Help and Support.

But @ZorkNemesis hit it on the head. If you're solo against it, you might not have reached the participation threshold.

[War Mace Scrapper Character Concept. Not Sure About Secondary...]

Moved to Scrapper subforum

[A Stuns/Disorients-a-Plenty Powers?]

Moved thread to the archetypes section; hopefully it will gain more traction here!

[Change Confront and Assassin's Strike into a distance-closing attack]

I see no reason that a similar power could not be baked into Mighty Leap from Force of Will which, iirc does not currently have an additional effect like the other two origin pools. 

 

IIRC, Mighty Leap has a PBAoE KD effect when you take off called... uhm, "Take Off", which also increases jump height/speed. Whether that's actually useful or not, I'll leave up for debate.

And also, holy heck guys, it's gotten a bit heated in here, can we cool it down a notch?

[Hami builds]

Moved thread to Achetypes subforum

[More costume slot workaround idea(if it wasn't suggested already); Costume set slots]

This is something more for the Suggestions and Feedback subforum, so, moved 😃

[ITF - an Extremely rare occurrence - Task Force Complete while Rommy is still alive.]

I don't think the devs want to grant badges based on random, uncontrollable events.

 

I mean, imagine if you wanted the badge and this NEVER HAPPENED AGAIN, you'd be a bit salty 😃

@catsi563 what am I looking at?!!... the confused emoji is in fun and respect for the boggle you have cast.

 

is it a monster, a castle? why is the castle falling over? is it a castle made of gold?

is the unicorn shooting sparkles out it's nose and fire out of it's rear?!

It occurs to me I may be putting more thought into this than you did.. 😞

 

One of the end-of-level forts from Super Mario Bros would be my guess.

[ITF - an Extremely rare occurrence - Task Force Complete while Rommy is still alive.]

While this is interesting, I feel like it constitutes a bug report, thus, moved. Can you recall if anything else unusual happened at the time?
