Not only are you wrong, you typed a whole soliloquy of misinformation. Nowhere in the CoC is AFK farming explicitly pointed out as being against ToS. You and everyone like you should learn to live with. >.> <.< Psst! Come ‘ere…. Different playstyles than yours. Especially if the devs themselves don’t care. This misinformed little rant of yours is not getting anything done, you clearly don’t know what AFK farming is, how it’s done, or even about the CoC. We get it, you don’t like it. We don’t care.

Thesaurus. Use. A. Thesaurus. Why does no one do this? Does the thing scare you? I promise it doesn’t bite. Not finding a name is simply a lack of effort on your part, plain and simple. And a lack of creativity. Use a goddamn thesaurus. PLEASE. *This is a request for all in lieu of the recent name fiasco.

This is 100% not true. Neither of you impact us, you’re just fucking annoying. Both of you. What impacts farming is whatever the devs cook up as an excuse to take a whack at farming, and that whole fiasco with the market which wasn’t necessarily from AFK farming but a literal XP/Inf bug that gave roughly 3x of both I believe? Leading to farmers being overly flush with inf. Not so much an issue nowadays. Flippers still make more faster. Sucks I had to be vulgar but honestly this rodeo keeps rolling into town too often.

That hasn’t been true for at least 2 years. It’s a common misconception spread around the forums. Blasters want +HP and of course all the damage you can get. Some healthy amount of recharge is nice too.

Good players moved over farmed then left. Thats just basic efficiency, which is what good players actually do. But now it’ll be what it always was; a preference, instead of an incentive. If you like low pop servers well there’s indom and reunion for you. And torch.

But what makes them having a bunch of lvl 1’s for their desired purpose hoarding and you standing around for hours RPing not hoarding? You’re both effectively playing your way and neither are “playing” the game by the metric of gaining levels and whatnot. So technically both are hoarding. Or, as I like to see it, both are playing the way they see fit. I personally have a lot of 50’s. To some even that still is hoarding. I say as long as you’re logging in, you’re good in my books. And the HC team too according to the release policy

That was a day of stupidity for sure. Same as beanbag really.

Marine really is the only good set thats new. Symphony is ok and has no gimmick. Seismic is awful, arsenal is not great, and Storm as you’ve seen is bad.

Thats what I was thinking.

I can’t find anything about this. Production seems to be going steadily from what I googled

Could possibly add Adamastar, Caleb and Kraken for horror monsters. Would be neat

4* is really not that bad. It does, for speed, damn near require the meta to get those nice times of under an hr. And a lil bit of knowledge. But otherwise it’s fairly easy content.

Nothing in lore says anything about the makeup of the species to that depth so there isn’t even a lore reason why it can’t be made red.

If this continues to be a problem, as much as it sucks to do, cancel the event for awhile if not forever. You can see in this very post how hard it is to respect a simple request. They want to fuck around, let em find out. This is not to single any particular person out, but it is infuriating that a simple request is getting an infantile, “but why?”. You are not children, this is not a townhall meeting. It’s all well and dandy to figure out exactly WHAT’s causing lag sure, but Kronos is causing problems for the event, the organizer ask people to stop spawning it. You stop doing it. End of fucking discussion.

It’s Ice/Cold/Psi with liberal proc use. It’s the meta corr for a reason.

According to my tinfoil hat and chair that speaks to me in my mind, CoH seems to have a very biased moderation practice varying from GM to GM with little to no consistency in application. But thats just tinfoil musing, pay it no mind

Leveling in WoW helped you learn the class but I think a happy medium needs to be attained that respects your time as modern day gamers have a plethora of options to pick from that do, that also usually have more engaging progression/stories. Also players are always criticized for rushing through things, which I can understand. But also what’s not considered, especially here, is just how much busier we’ve gotten as people. People aren’t rushing(usually?) for the sake of just rapid consumption(though that definitely is a thing/problem), but for the sake of their time. They only get a few hours on the weekend to game. I doubt they want to spend it slogging through antiquated game practices like killing 100 boars or doing generic bland leveling contact missions from 2004. Taking half a year to get a max level character(if you were as busy as folks are today back in that time period) was acceptable as patience was higher, and also there really weren’t too many options as gaming was in its’ infancy. Now? Not so much for the reason I listed above, but placing the biggest emphasis on respecting players’ time. *Also see my earlier post in this thread about why such a thing occurred originally and why it’s not really going to pan out in the player’s favor.

Its not. Its a meme that would not die in ‘09 where it belonged(or before). It was…ok back in the day. It’s VERY very overdone now, bordering on cringe

I forgot snarky responses! Let me put that on the bingo card for next time. I rarely make comments on how others play the game(literally never in game), but YOU lot...I'd need exponential functions to begin to calculate over the years how often you all do it. So yes, DO start with the man in the mirror 🙂 I do spend too much time reading this stuff though. That much is true. What else am I to do on days off/lunch breaks while friends are busy :P. In that aspect, I’ll take a note from Mr. Jackson and look at making a change there.

Most of CoH IS boomers 😛 It’s actually pretty interesting. The forums is mostly older players in their 50s-60s. Discord is usually 30 and under. Nothing exact. Just gives me an idea of the audience I’ll be dealing with. I personally prefer the discord as of late. The forums is a lot like NextDoor. People who have nothing better to do than judge how another plays the game. It’s cyclical; someone makes a passive aggressive or thinly veiled judgement post about X aspect regarding how someone plays. Some people who agree pile on, people who disagree point out how dumb the topic is and end up arguing, then the thread either gets locked or driven way off course with memes. Or someone mentions Snarky. Then the cycle repeats. Sometimes in the same day even.

I could of sworn I used to see his post back in the day on these forums. Maybe even a guide or two? Did he give a reason as to why he left?

Thats exactly how people on these forums think. I really feel people who cry “power creep” simply don’t play enough(or any, lets be honest) games outside of CoH to understand what it looks like. Hell its’ meaning has become muddled a smidge even IN CoH

NuCouncil to me is...okay. I mean, the spongy galaxies is meh, but otherwise they're not some horribad group to be lamented. I still solo them at +1x8 on the few 50s I still do play, so nothing besides some tedium has changed for me. It sucks that a mindless group for people looking to relax got changed, I get that, but it's not changed so that it's impossible to really get into a rhythm with. You just now might have to use insp.

You can also do as I do and smack em on ignore in the forums. His asinine and egregiously incorrect and horribly misinformed post don’t ever cross my screen thanks to this feature

Even better, I only lead teams. Little to no autonomy given because someone is mad the mission got done faster. Complain about it? Don’t really care! I’m the lead. Passive aggressive remark about no one sticking together? That’s nice, I’m still the lead and absolutely not forcing the team to acquiesce to one member’s perceived notion of “proper teamplay”. It’s how I’ve been doing since live days and relaunch. Hence my earlier comment about stalkers. I will never acquiesce to how someone else thinks a team should be run, minus iTrials and raids as I don’t lead those anymore(those were lead in my live days on virtue). Saves me a headache.
