Marine X

Cavern of Transcendence Trial/Strategy Since it is no longer necessary to click the Obelisks simultaneously, all you really need do is go down each tunnel and click each obelisk one by one. You may wish to work your way around clockwise or counterclockwise to make it easy to keep track of which you have already done, or if on a team you may wish to call out which ones you click as you click them so others will know not to duplicate your effort. ("First left, done!" "Second left, done!" etc.) Some Obelisks will be free of enemies, but others will have enemies encamped around them. You may need to clear the enemies out before you can click them. Remember that falling in the lava heals Pumicites, so try not to knock them in. It is not actually necessary to defeat Koago to complete the Trial; simply defeat the two or three Pumicites holding Sam Wincott captive against the wall. Not true, completed all objectives Today and freed Sam Wincott who then ran off and Mission Countdown continued with Defeat Koago displayed.

If the Game Account is associated with the " slo644 " Forum Account, you will see the Game Account User Name in the Blue Bar when you click on Account then Game Account at the top of this page. Make sure it matches what you are trying to use to access the game. You can reset the password there. If the Game Account is associated with a different Forum Account, you will need that Forum Account Name and access to the Email account you used to create the Account to move forward. If you can log into that account, check the Game Account there and make sure it matches what you are trying to use. Either way, if you are having difficulty filing a Support Ticket is your best bet. Include as much information as possible, as this will streamline the process. The Forum User Name and Game User Name may not be the same, The Passwords are not usually the same so you'll need to use the correct information.

I keep trying, and failing to find all the Rogue PPD. Granted, I keep trying to Solo it which this was clearly not built to be done Solo. Maybe one of these days I'll recruit someone to help. Seems to me that the amount of time versus the amount of things you have to accomplish is very challenging, almost too challenging, But I like a challenge. Mission- 4, Marine -0. dammit.

File a Support ticket at the tab at the top of the screen, they may require you to have access to the email account you used when you created your Homecoming account. You will also need your game account name. Be patient and they will get you fixed up in no time.

works for me...

I have heard that there are some issues with older launchers and Homecoming in general, Mac especially. The Homecoming Launcher is specifically designed for Homecoming and is fully supported, updates automatically, and is Mac compatible. It may be time to give it a try. Here is link to the installation instructions:

Be sure to verify that the username you are using to log into the game is the one in the blue bar on the account page, it can be different from your Forum Username. Both the Username and password are case sensitive so make sure the Caps Lock is off. You can start a support ticket by going to support at the top of this page, it will help if you have access to the email account you used to sign up for the Game Account.

This could become a major problem soon as Gmail is going to start to delete inactive email accounts that have been inactive for 2 years or more beginning December 1, 2023. If you have not signed in, sent or read an email in 2 years the account will be flagged. If that Google account is deleted it will not be able to be recreated or reused for a new account. This could be an issue for anyone who forgets their password and used a Gmail account they don't actually use to sign up for Homecoming. Now would be a good time to verify those accounts and document them.

This may not be important but I see from the specs that your laptop is 64 bit, yet you are running the Homecoming Launcher at 32 bit, was that intentional?

The more info you can give us the more likely we can find a fix. PC or Mac, Linux etc. OS Version. Wired or Wireless Connection. ( Wired is always more bandwidth and more stable ) Launcher used ( HC Launcher is preferred, and supported, the others are not ) Installation Location ( C; Games/Homecoming is preferred as windows updates will not affect it there, if in Program Files windows can affect it. ) Has your Anti-Virus, OS or Graphics Software updated recently. The internet can never be ruled out since everyone's path to the servers may be different based on where they are, something on the hop route thru services between you and homecoming may have changed, this may not cause issues anywhere else, if you get in game, run /netgraph 1 to see if you are experiencing packet loss, /netgraph 0 to turn it off. Let us know what you find.

Not Necessarily, Free accounts could only have 2 Characters without purchasing more slots from the Paragon Market, VIP and Premium Accounts could have more but there was still a limit before you had to purchase slots. HC allows a 1000 per account and many players have multiple accounts. Altitis on HC has no real limit placed on it as the Live game did. VIP status was required to play anything beyond the original 8 archetypes, Going Rogue, Incarnate content, etc. There was a huge surge in accounts and Characters when the game initially returned that are all still all there with many of them inactive. Do we need a name release? Probably not. I have always been able to find an available name, it just takes more thought now.

Point taken. It would be nice if it just looked at the Account activity instead of each Toon. Perhaps, if they ever actually move forward with the Renaming Policy, it could have a different qualifier before it is applied. If an Account has been inactive for a prolonged period it could become Flagged for Name release, ( If you haven't even logged into the account in 2 or 3 Years it's likely you have moved on as a lot of people from the initial surge of players did. ) This is essentially a free game, even if you choose to donate. Games you subscribe to will only hold your account in stasis for so long if you stop paying, so for a free game to exceed that is not something you should expect. So maybe it would be more reasonable to having the flags attached at an account level instead of Character level. It would also serve those who have returned after a lengthy absence and can't remember their account/password and wish to recreate their toons. What do other games do? I have never seen a Renaming Policy discussed in other games other than if the name violated Copyright or was Offensive. When I got to homecoming there were 3 of my old characters names someone had already grabbed, not that big a deal. I have no expectation of going MIA for years and returning to find everything as I left it.

Not so much a who as a what. I think it would be interesting if there was a Taskforce associated with the Omega Team Memorial. You visit the Memorial and are greeted by a Psychic Ghost of one of the 50 heroes who followed Hero 1 to the Rikti Home Dimension and perished. They offer you the opportunity to save those that remain alive from the Rikti and return them home. You may even be aided by Glacia and Infernia who know the lay of the land and possibly how to succeed, having escaped and returned themselves. It would require no new assets and could be an interesting mission arc/taskforce/strikeforce.

Mott from the Dark Astoria Arcs and Hamidon are probably the closest besides Rularu to a cosmic or Godlike Villain, although the clearly omnipotent Mapserver is definitely in the running. The Intension before shutdown was for them to pretty much go there with Battalion. Seems like the only part of that to exist in game is the Shivans, as they were the first wave. The current developers seem to have little interest in continuing in that direction, but I think Kallisti Wharf was to be the focus of that Invasion. Not sure if any other aspects had been developed, guess a thorough look at the i24 Beta game data would show if other work had been done.

Another $25 well spent.

Clearly no, America didn't. Germany had already fallen to the Allied forces, Italy bowed out early and amazingly avoided the negative backlash the other Axis powers were subjected to. Every time I see something regarding the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki I feel a bit ashamed that my country felt that was the only way to end the ongoing conflict. It was nothing to be proud of and had to be a difficult choice for all those involved. However, Japan's collective sense of Duty and Honor would have kept the war going indefinitely, with a much greater death toll. The price we are still paying is that the Genie is out of the bottle, Pandora's Box is wide open, every regime is on a quest to have that power, and there is no way back from there.

Have to say the one that frustrates me the most is the outdoor Factory Map that has about 8 levels of ramps on the outside and multiple levels inside. Always used for a defeat all Clockwork mission and you spend a ridiculous amount of time at the end looking for one Oscillator who is hovering 100' feet above you or a Cog who has fallen down between the ramps.

Reunion is now up and running.

According to @GM Flints on Discord, Reunion is stuck halfway thru a restart, the team has been notified and will address the issue, all other shards are working fine.

Just tried to log into Game on Reunion and keep getting " cannot find map! " error, followed by " account already logged in ". Restarted PC, Modem and router, still the same. Switched to second account, still the same. Can log either account into any of the other shards just fine, issue seems to just be Reunion.

I believe there is also a setting in options to set whether the screenshot includes the UI, not able to verify at the moment, but seem to recall seeing it there.

It's all good, reran it and finished it, was just very boring to do the same timed defeat all mission twice in one day, but on to other things.

Well still got screwed. Was in mission when they announced server maintenance in one hour, finished up mission and exited only to be awarded an automatic timed mission ( 90 min ) with only about 40 minutes left till shut down. Couldn't get it done. After the reset I logged back in and the mission cued up with the timer at 47 minutes, but it completely reset the map. Started all over and still couldn't get it done. Wasted 3 hours to get a failed mission arc. It did give me 15 merits, oh boy, what a happy day.

Not sure if there will be anyone able to answer this but wondered what the Maintenance Schedule will be this week 7/3-7/5. Was thinking that I might start a long Flashback Arc tomorrow morning but really don't want my progress wiped out by a server restart. I imagine not all the GMs, HC Team etc, consider tomorrow a holiday, so thought I should probably ask.

Started an Ouro Arc in base using base Pillar, "Ubelmann the Unknown" from Ashwin Lannister in the 25-29 section. After the first mission I needed to return to contact so I went to my base, went to the Pillar and used the Teleport to contact option to save the slog through Indy Port to get to him. Well suddenly I am rezzing in the Indy Port Hospital, not sure If it always does that with that character or if it was a fluke but still weird, I realize he is in the lobby of the Hospital, so no big deal but I should have appeared at him, not in the Mediporter.
