Normally the answer is no. But for Ultra Alt and people who think like them, the answer is yes sadly. Its why if you find someone trying to put their fun above others, use the boot button!

This thread right now:

The boot button exist for Ultra Alt’s way of thinking. Find one of them on your team? Kick em. Bonus points if its a TF they need. Wanna go thinking your fun is more important? Okay. You’ll learn to stop thinking that way, and VERY quickly when you get booted so often

No it shouldnt Its literally 11 grossly OP discombobulated powers slapped together. and typical ATs only get 9.

This could be something that came straight from my dad’s mouth. You hit the nail on the head.

Well I hate to make you think its only Dark Souls. Hm, I should use other games true. Well how about Destiny. In Destiny the raids are actually very VERY difficult compared to CoH because they require a lot more coordination than the hardest content CoH could literally ever dream of. In particular, Salvation’s Edge. My argument isn’t also so much about the immediate difficulty, it was poorly articulated I give you that. My argument is that a good number of people using “git gud” and “skill issue” especially in a game like this don’t realize that it really actually can’t apply here. There’s so much to do and so little comparison between what you choose to do that how does one even “git gud”? How do I git gud if I’m a RPer and don’t care about HM, as an example. I was actually more arguing FOR the people than against. My usage of Dark souls and soulslike games is to say basically to those who give others a hard time about their perceived superiority in CoH and a “skill issue”, that this game doesn’t have some uber high unobtainable skill ceiling and you aren’t nearly the hot shit you think you are. There’s very little “skill” to me in this game that can’t be learned in a few weeks or months time. And absolutely NO skill that makes you hot shit compared to others. Also 500 DPS isn’t meant to be literal. I can’t believe I have to say that but it is 2024 so… As an aside I personally play solidly in the middle of the spectrum. Skilled enough to make the builds and minmax the goals I want to chase, and form HM 3 ITFs and keep up on 4* runs, but not so uber skilled that I can literally break down the math of each power using arcana time. Or lead hammi raids, I totally have and can lead iTrials but that was back in ye olden virtue days

While I agree with your assessment I just had to pick these two out as I find it hilarious. This is CoH, you smack your head on the keyboard and end up with 500 dps. There is no skill in this game, there is no git gud. That can be said for games with REAL hurdles and challenges, not this weenie hut juniors ass MMO. And even there, I never say it. I dunno, just seems kinda infantile to me to go ‘git gud’ even if the sentiment may be true, instead I offer help. But thats way off course of the topic. OP, none of the suggestions seem like necessary QoL changes imo. It seems you may just not like the game.

Most people don’t really read the forums deeply so it’s more or less you screaming at the clouds and us laughing. Not like you’re doing any harm imo but that’s pretty much what it is

To me it seems disingenuous. Obviously people play like you. Sure, depending on the time of day it’ll be lite or maybe there’ll be more of an immediate spam of endgame stuff, but it’s still stupid easy to put a team together for regular content And the bit at the end, while not passive aggressive was…for an extreme lack of words almost pouting? I don’t think OP forms teams, or they would quickly realize how easy it is to pit ateam together for the slow n steady method of leveling

It’ll be awhile before anything being worked on is close to open beta, but there is stuff being worked on yeah. Obviously can’t talk about it but just thought I’d give a reason why getting into the beta would be difficult

I think right now apps are closed because there have been a number of leaks from folks(I think? Not sure) and until some stuff is cleared up with the rules it won’t be open. But it will open back up!

Thats not what I’ve seen. It depends on time of day and patience of course but I mean you can form an old school team in ~10 minutes on a good day and maybe 30 to an hr on a bad. I would know, I have 25 old school 50s and the rest from PLing myself.

You have Veracor, SSR, Burk and a few others. There’s the Everlasting TFs channel to know which trial is up for the day

People could always just get in on the Gold Standard discord, then they’d always know what’s being worked on 🤷🏾‍♂️ Assuming thats fair to say

Having just seen the kheld one and how folks can’t understand the word “options” yeah no this will devolve into brainrot that’ll make me hate reading the forums even more. I’m here for it though. Let the litany of brainrot commence

I figured this out when the system out when I was 12 going on 13 whrn incarnates first came out. But I still think the system needs to be streamlined

But…but its a cosmetic…eh nevermind. back on topic, I didn’t see anyone earlier mention getting rid of kheld shapeshifting, just making human form you know, not a monkey shit pick.

So because they want a cosmetic option that has no effect on gameplay you’re malding? Say sike right now please

There’s a dichotomy within the CoH community. The discord, home of numbers, logic, and imo the best players in CoH or “experts” on a certain AT or playstyle, in this case Lauci, Wispur, and Doom who are the only kheld players I trust in the game. And the forums. More of a wild west of post, lots of ad hominem attacks, and uh…sometimes random cat or pizza post. *The forums ate my last well thought out post so this is what you get

I’m going to be nice and just ask, since these comments don’t exist, where are you getting this assessment from? Especially in this thread?

I can totally understand that. But as a person who has had limited time in the past(and soon to have limited time again in the future) I feel I’d rather just leave and not bother trying to control the other person’s play. I may gripe and make a note not to team with them in the future but I’m not going to go to the forums and call for a feature to be removed(removing or nerfing AE) because of them, then spiral and try and tell others how to play “the correct way”

I’m going to try and post my 4* Fire/Dark Corr tomorrow if I have time. I think you should take a look at that. *BTW im not saying your build looks bad. It’s got decent defenses but I think maybe mine might provide some new insights possibly.

That makes perfect sense to deal with. Absolutely kick those kind of players as they’re legit leeching for sure

It has to do with a lack of control in their real lives so they figure they could come here and try to control others without realizing they’re even MORE powerless here. A funny and sad situation all around to be sure. *Some will claim ad hominem blah blah blah but it’s really not. I’ve seen this type of behavior elsewhere IRL and the reasoning resembled my remark, and what’s happening here looks awfully familiar so…see a shovel call it a shovel and all that

I take offense to this. It’s CALLED a space lobster thank you very much 😤
