  1. I truly and completely detest beyond all the ability of the american-English dialect to express how vile, repugnant and revolted I am by the whole pack - move - unpack process.

     

    All that said a bright, shining, glorious, 5 minutes was had when I found the spot I had stashed the little metal archetype Pins, the light up Hero Star, the plastic (sized like a credit card or ID) Con badge and the other nick-knacks.

     

    Had to share here because no one else would understand. :)

     

    Night all

  2. I see very small things in game -- LF 2 more for TF NO WARSHADES ALLOWED type stuff.

     

    Where I see the cyanide is in the forums - again a minority, they just get more attention and have an easy time spreading vitriol.

     

    The COH community as a whole has always been helpful, friendly and considerate. We all just need to remember that the best way to deal with trolls is to not feed them as you are not able to reason, compromise, or find middle ground at all. Hungry trolls move on.

    I use firecages to hold mobs in place while I tornado / lightning storm / bonfire etc. Or, well, I used to.

     

    I can see removing it from the single target, as it is with firecages the -kb is(was) a much shorter duration then the immob. This allowed firecages to really help nail mobs down and keep them in place for nuking.

     

    Or was the change just for the single target immob?

     

    KnockBack will be converted to KnockDown

     

    for partial or full time?

  4.  

    Immobilize Powers in Controller and Dominator primary power sets should no longer make their targets immune to KnockUp. KnockBack will be converted to KnockDown. This helps sets like Ice and Earth, as their AOE Immobilize power will no longer make their AOE Knockback power useless.[/

     

    /storm controllers (or fire tollers that took bonfire) are probably the only controllers not happy with the change.

     

    Still, it will fix so much of the frustration with AOE immob, especially in the hands of new controllers.

     

    As someone who’s still learning the basics on my private server, I’m amazed at all of these updates.

  5. I never owned the physx card, it didnt take Nvidia too long to take them on as competition and add software to allow NV cards to also do the same thing.

     

    NV now owns the company that was making the card (forgetting name of it right now).

     

    Getting purchased by NV prob made someone rich.

  6. It shouldn't take long for the trolls to find a new bridge to hang out under.

     

    What I have been reading happening to some of the other COH servers we are getting off easy.

     

    I honestly dont get it myself.

     

    In 7 years of COH I /ignored 1 person.

     

    You'd see a little bickering and pissyness in the old forums here and there. Nothing awful (that I saw anyways) - I just think with 100000 subs we have all 12 of the truly disgruntled COH players posting all at once right now.

     

    It is nice to see the nice, helpful, friendly community is reasserting itself.

  7. It's an attitude that pervades far too many aspects of our society.  It's typically not enough for someone to believe strongly in something.  They tend to believe it so strongly that they become convinced it is the only real truth, and that everyone should think the same way.  Anyone who doesn't is obviously a moron worthy of ridicule.  It's as if they think "If you would just think the way I do, everything would be fine!".  They go so far as to not just advocate their position on this, that, or the other thing.  They foist their views on others, which is where I draw the line.  It's regrettable.

     

    Aman Brother!

  8. I suspect some people have misunderstandings about what a non-profit is or is not.

     

    It is clear that Homecoming is serving the public.

     

    With the internet self education is just a click away: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/n/non-profitorganization.asp

     

    Non-profits are allowed to have and pay employees, save money for emergencies, etc.

     

    It is clear Homecoming is entirely supported by volunteer hours. Thank you again to all those volunteers.

  9. I had a dps meter in the old days. It might have been ATC, I remember a fussy set up.

     

    I rarely spoke to other people about my own numbers, just used it to test this vs that for myself and keep track of buffs and stuff. Total 'kills' er arrest was fun too. (for me anyways).

  10. I like it here.... maybe this little thing or that might not be exactly perfectly how I want it - BFD. OMG I get to play again!!!!!

     

    It doesnt take much work digging around to find VMs that can be downloaded and run your own server at home -- I've run across I24 and I25 versions.

     

    I have a copy in a safe place as protection against the future. Anyone can make their own server and run it any way they want. I dont see room for any serious griping.

     

    I will not be providing any links out of respect for Homecoming's desire to not share code as mentioned up stream in this thread. (Like the OP).

     

    I cant say enough times and ways how nice it is to have this world back!

  11. I played from issue 1 to the night it was turned off - took some breaks and dont claim to be the best player or market manipulator.

     

    Now: As you get to higher levels more money will come in. Leveling up pre market it could be painful each time you out grew a set of SO's.

     

    Sell salvage and recipes, take a few min to check what it is selling for before listing it and you should do well enough. Some recopies can sell for quite a lot so check the price before posting.

     

    Other's I am sure will have more specific advise.
