GM declares "fleas bad, Bionic Fleas worse". You heard it here first folks! There's only one way to settle this... it's @Bionic_Flea -vs- @GM Crumpet in a classic City of Celebrity Death Match.. death match.

Folks might be interested in how they could do this themselves?

New characters for everyone!!

Pants!! You forgot your pants!

Or I'll just stick with the launcher that works until all the bugs are ironed out of the new one. ( modus operandi ) This I will keep in mind. Thanks again for the quick reply to be patient.

"Life life" forever

You haven't tried Super Reflexes on a Tanker yet.. so yummy. Super Reflexes / Energy Melee. maybe I should read further before posting.. nah

I try to never install device software. If it doesn't work out of the box or with an updated driver, then it's next device. It's rare I really have to install software for a device to work. Sure I can't change the colors of my current keyboard's backlit.. but at least I can dim it. The software that came with the keyboard is basically bloatware that wants to update itself and basically run advertisements. No thanks.

@Michiyo The tequila launcher eventually updated and works. fyi - I can get into open Betas with it just fine. I'm sure folks will start to look into the new launcher. Maybe HC has a little little PR blitz planned for down the road (so long as it has moved past removing files from peoples computers).

The launcher now works just as it did. Just had to be patient. Thanks @Cipher for letting us know about the delay for those not using the HC Launcher yet.

@Lunar Ronin yes. And it's not that simple. We have folks with a wide range of computer specs and capabilities. A heavily modded setup might require extra work to change launchers. This computer somehow has three separate installs all from Homecoming. /City of Heroes, /HC, /Homecoming.. it can be as clear as mud sometimes. @GM Crumpet I did test the new launcher and can use it. Tequila seems to boot me from the game less often.. sooo... whatdayawantmetosay "I am change resistant" 🙂

Ruda, the initial response was not to change launchers. It is definitely an option to switch, which may involve more than folks think in order to have everything work as someone wants. "The patch manifest that unofficial launchers use lags behind our official launcher by a bit, you'll have to either switch to the official launcher or give it a bit of time to update."

Crippling peeps game for the 20th anniversary was not the plan. What matters came from Cipher: " ..give it a bit of time to update. " It's a May celebration. I was all excited to login asap too. I'll save being disappointed for later today, if it doesn't work then..

thanks @Cipher as long as yall are aware, I'm good.

Able to log in and view the server list. When selecting a server the message above appears. Logged in with test manifest, without test manifest, exited restarted, still get message when accessing live servers. Brainstorm however grants access.

Feel, and that is very subjective. For some that is being effective. For others this is survivability while for others it might be control. I am happy taking on a handful of targets with a primarily single target specialist; stunning some, and placating others while dealing with a hard target. I can be the hot knife through butter one target at a time and be pleased, I am happy using fear and slow together, while again working through a group solo or with a team. The whole AoE without consequences steamrolling of huge mobs while racing to acquire the best loot gets repetitive and boring. Your mileage may vary.

fixed it for ya. I'm sure many many folks thank you for what you've done and continue to do.

oh geez

If I remember correctly, this game is not that accessible. The lift to make it accessibility compliant at shutdown was cost prohibitive. The bar may have shifted since.

Happy 20th Anniversary!!

Or at least forces some mitigation choice, like phase shift. With multiple nukers, last one in loses? "Nuke first and nuke hard!" might be some small print addition to my "Don't Mez Me Bro" tee-shirt.

Is this awarded on the anniversary?

😞
