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 😤

Ooooh boy I’m gonna get dislikes but uhm. I don’t think other studios should look at what HC does and follow it. It took YEARS to get to the level of transparency we have now, and there’s still a mountain of work to do on that front. Case and point, only just now are they starting to put design goals on sets to better paint a picture of what they hope to accomplish with changes. Ff14 has been doing this for years. Also how HC handles sets to me seems too much like it was done in a spreadsheet and not what’s actually fun. Definitely not something other studios should copy. At first, HC to me was the beesknees, now? They’re alright. I mean they haven’t completely ruined the game which is great but they are in no way shape or form a shining beacon in the industry. Not even close.

I prefer the discord. Its where the best players in the game are readily available to provide accurate info that the forums has missed in the past, and provides bleeding edge info in real time as opposed to over several weeks

What servers are you all playing on that this happens so much? Sounds like Everlasting but I could be wrong. I don’t encounter leechers thankfully, but I also as of late don’t team much anymore when I do log on, so maybe its a bigger issue? But everyone’s coming up with highly contrived solutions to a problem that already has a solution, well two I guess if you go Shin’s route. Warn them, they get uppity then kick em. Life’s too short to deal with shit like this

No you haven’t

Hey look! One of em took the bait. But seriously, a PSA for everyone out there: for YOU it may be about the journey, and that’s awesome! But remember, this isn’t a terribly active MMO developmentally speaking. The beginning that you keep praising? 20 years old at this point. There aren’t that many new players I imagine who will look at it and go “oh boy this is great!” No, they’ll see how old and clunky and boring it is and either PL to 50 and run endgame/maybe some older stuff exemping, or quit.

You have got to be joking right. Please tell me you’re joking.
