Marine X

Weird. Why they all on a planet? That is actually at the end of Season 3, Then over the next 2 years they aired 2 shortened seasons referred to as Season 4.0 and Season 4.5 which brought the Story to an end. They tied up a lot of loose ends and the finale was really cool as they end up at the Cylon Colony, complete with a mix of Original series Centurians and the Contemporary ones.

Currently have only Marine X @ 50+ ( Inv/SS ) on Reunion, but with the frequency with which I can play, that's actually doing good for me. Have a 50+ Fire/Rad Brute, Bubba Burns on Everlasting, never got a Brute there on Live. Have a few Project Tanks, Grimmwolf @32 ( Bio/Savage ) and Major Meson @13 ( Rad/Rad ), but mostly all my remakes from Live and not enough time to play them. Have definitely noticed the changes since the Patch, Thanks HC Crew, seems this may get a little love back for having a Meat Shield on your team, it's been a while. Still gotta get back to Livingston @13 ( Stone/Fire ), AC Volt @22 ( Elect/Elect ), Warhorse @24 ( Shield/Mace ) and Xeniram @12 ( Bio/Titan ), but hopefully we have a good long time to get there and I'm not in a hurry.

It is by no means a new thing, as I had it happen occasionally on Live, but I've never figured out a way to make it stop. It's just weird and I thought maybe there was something in mouse settings or options I could adjust to eliminate it. I have a good Internet Connection and ping and am not experiencing any lag or rubberbanding. Since the powers are both Targetless, PBAoE, I assume that it would show a ring around it if you Double Tapped it but it doesn't, then out of the Blue it triggers. Maybe it's just Millie, our house ghost, having a little fun with me.

Not so much a bug as an annoying thing. On my Fire/Radiation Melee Brute my normal attack chain is ( with Irradiated ground on ) to run in crowd, hit Burn, then Atom Smasher. This usually finishes off a group, save maybe a love tap if a Lt survived. I'll start toward the next group and all of a sudden Atom Smasher goes off again. I've had the same thing happen with Footstomp before on Marine, even if I've clicked another power afterward. Anyone else have this issue? Any way to get it to stop? Not a big deal but can become aggravating some times if I want to use my normal chain, because now I have to wait for it to recharge.

THONGS FOR EVERYONE!!!!

I liked SG-Universe which I guess is an unpopular opinion in SG fandom. I agree on those as well, can't believe I forgot to name drop Farscape. SG1, Atlantis and SGU were all good but one of my favorite things was the 200th episode when they were trying to help Brainstorm a TV show concept...

One of mine, Warhorse ( Shield/Mace Tanker ), was this build and was pretty impressive. Didn't get the Incarnate Love that some of the earlier toons did but didn't seem to need it as much either. Started him for the Cimerora Launch. fastest toon to 50 for me.

I started Goldfever first, ( Illusion/Kinetic Controller ) then Marine X a few weeks later ( Invulnerable/ Super Strength Tank ) in Issue 0, couldn't do beta because needed to get Broadband installed. Had Marine and 2 other Tanks to 50 before Goldfever Did. Tanking for me was the better fit.

Strangely, most of my Characters, ( Firehawk, Marine X, Corona, Goldfever, Hawkstar, Livingston, Xeniram, Sludge, Warhorse and Thunderess ) were originally characters in a comic book I drew for Art class in High school ( 1980-1982 ) and some had different powers, but was able to find sets that worked for some of them on Live, So changing Things now is like a little re-tweak.

Trek has evolved over the years in some ways that make it hard to be a fan of all its versions. TOS was a classic and always will be what hard core fans will judge any new Trek against, what they were able to do, in a show that ran in 1966-1968, was astoundingly groundbreaking. They created a solid World of politics and Alien cultures that was very believable and engaging. Add lots of Cowboy diplomacy and you have a Classic, even if CBS didn't see it at the time. When they announced ST: The Next Generation, I thought it was a horrible idea.... Shows what I know. It took a while for it to find it's place Story wise, but once it did I believe that it set a new bar for SciFi on television as far as Writing and Production. Great Cast and Crew. I was actually looking forward to Deep Space Nine when they announced it. The Berman Era yeilded the most Unappreciated Series of the Catalogue. It was very much Anti-Trek Trek as the Characters were always in turmoil with each other. The serialized format of the show was a breath of fresh air after TNGs monster of the week format and made the series my favorite. Voyager is not a bad Series, period. But is it a great Trek show, not sure. Was it the female Captain that made people not respond well to it? probably ( although it had good viewership numbers, no one apparently watched/liked it, hmmm ). I liked it for what made it different, no Star Fleet to call in, and whether to still hold to those values, tough to do sometimes. Villains that were ruthless, the Vidians , the Kazon, the Hirogen, Species 8472 and of course, The Borg. Does not get a lot of credit for the fact that Voyager is a small ship a long way from Home. Enterprise was going to be an uphill battle from the word go. It was going to be hard to accept that communicators were all they had in an era of smartphones. That at launch, Enterprise didn't have Phasors, only torpedos. That Shields were not yet available, and probably the most jarring, No Federation of Planets, Vulcans were usually an antagonist and our primary enemies for the series are groups never before mentioned in Trek Lore even though it takes place before TOS. Some didn't like Scott Bakula. I thought that although the story seemed to keep exposing what it would really be like to explore space before you really had friends and acquaintances out there, most viewers just would bring up a laundry list as to why TNG or TOS were so much better. Guess I preferred a change of direction instead of another Cookie Cutter show, that's really all. Discovery started slow but is doing well in creating a whole new narrative in an era we know little about, much like Enterprise, but not trying as hard to be realistic, instead being very Creative with there direction. the fact Saru's species is considered a delicacy is very wierd. I like it, can I keep it? Star Trek: Picard. I guess we'll see, soon. Star Trek: First Frontier, guess we'll see it and then judge, they have got a great team from what I hear, and are in uncharted waters, could be the Feature film producers need to hire these guys. The films....... All good for different reasons and to different degrees. Wrath of Kahn and First Contact are my 2 Favorites, followed by Voyage Home, Search for Spock, and Generations. The other films are good, just not something I would rewatch as much. To me, the movies are like an extended TV episode and I have episodes I like better than some of the Features. Kelvin Timeline: Probably was the best way to reboot without stepping on a million toes, and It allows for their to be some uncertainty as to the way things would play out. Understanding that half the original cast is no longer with us, and even TNG, DS9 and STV casts are getting long in the tooth it was inevitable. I enjoyed them in that context and will continue to see what the come up with. To answer the OP: I am a Science Fiction fan and Star Trek fan, not that I consider them 2 different things. I also liked Lexx which was comedic but also SciFi, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Invisible Man on SciFi Channel and Sliders. I could fill a page full of books and Movies, but my all time favorite is still Gattaca, such a great movie with the SciFi elements very subtle and the story very to the front. I think I need a new keyboard....

Striga Island, next to contact Lars Hansen will get the Day Job Icon to appear.

I've pretty faithfully recreated most of my Live toons on Homecoming. I've only modified 1 so far ( Livingston went from Stone/Battle Axe Tank to Stone/Fire Tank ). Well I finally had to do it. I have hardly played Hawkstar at all ( Level 2 Warshade ) so I recreated him as a Fire/Inv Sentinel which so far has been much more compatible with my playstyle. I had an easier time on Live with my Peacebringer, and may start a Warshade again later, but it was difficult for me the first time around and even though Void Hunters are not around they still require a lot of patience. Anyone else Rebooted a Live Character to a totally new Archetype?

Then Linda Summers in Kings Row sends you, at level 5 to "Defeat 20 Skulls in Perez Park", all are at least 7 and in large groups with a Death Doll or equivalent hiding among them, ( I died , died, died, but did complete it ). Did a Door mission for her in Perez and then, at level 6, She tells me to "Defeat 20 Circle of Thorns in Perez Park". After searching for nearly an Hour, I wielded the Almighty "Auto-Complete Mission" on that Fantasy. There isn't ever any below 7, and I couldn't find a group smaller than 6 that wasn't level 8 or above, always with LT and mostly 9s. This whole thing just made me wonder, why did I have to Self Level from 28 1/2 to 30 to get more missions from Kelly Nemmers, which I could have handled, to then be given that garbage at 5? The world may never know.

Hyperstrike Members 290 943 posts Report post Posted July 4, 2019 Ice is great for Defense. But if you crack the Defense, it can eggshell nastily. So, while you should build towards soft-cap, always look at Resistance buffage too. Here's an example. It's kinda ridiculously uber-buff (Incarnate soft-cap to S/L and standard Soft-Cap to everything else. And, even though it doesn't REALLY need it, it's got multiple Recovery options (Energy Absorption, Conserve Power). https://tinyurl.com/IceRadTank And here's a Common IO build (plus the "must have" special IOs that you want to aim for). https://tinyurl.com/IceRadTank-CommonIO-Plus Credit the Master, Hyperstrike, always has a Plan.

One option might be to create a gmail email address for your Character and use it to create a Facebook page where you could post photos, videos, bios etc for free

For a Tank/Brute guy, It took this for me to mothball my crew for a while and get a Controller to 50, lol.

I wonder if you did 2 completely separate installs, 1 for each account if that would solve the issue. Like a COH1 folder, then a COH2 folder both on the C drive, with their own separate Tequila shortcuts ( also notated as 1 and 2 perhaps ).

A discussion came up on the Titan Network Forums a year or so ago. If we could have City of Heroes back, even if it was Issue 1, before all the added zones, before City of Villains, before Going Rogue, before Incarnates, before Wentworths and Crafting, before Capes even ( lol ) would you still want it back? The answer was pretty unanimously YES. So the new things we have here are light years beyond what we were willing to settle for and there is a trickle of new shiny thrown in to boot. I'm just happy with what's right in front of me and keeping it is more important to me than tricking it out with newness.

Here you go...Hyperstrike responds to post with a build and is a Tank Build Master.

Actually made a character based around a Costume Bug. If you selected " Flack Jacket " for upper body, then hit the left button for selections it turned your torso transparent. I used this for Crimson Cage, ( Krymsun ) my Peacebringer, Who was Unable to properly bond with a Human, so survived by being sealed in an energy field generating armor. Won a few costume contests with that one.

Was playing Grimmwolf for a bit before work Yesterday and while farming Deer ( Tuatha Steaks, mmm.. ) to get to 30 so I can do the Kelly Nemmers Arc I ran into an old friend. Jack in Irons and his entire Entourage of Red Caps were heading North out of the Woods, he seemed to really be having issues though. He kept stopping, turning around, then take a step and turn back around again, I've seen him a Hundred Times on his March, but not quite like this. He seemed broken. He headed up to Kelly Nemmers and seemed stuck going back and forth on the shore of the pond. I put out a Call to see if anyone was interested ( No, @5:15am GMT+5 on Reunion ) and I went back to farming. I came back about 10 till 6:00am and Jack was Gone, but his Entourage were all standing in the middle of the Pond, so I ate defeated them. as I headed South I spotted Jack, Stuck, going back and forth between some Tree roots. I logged out. I get home from work @3:30pm GMT+5, Log on, and Jack's still stuck in the same place...I felt sorry for him so I got a Humanitarian Team together and Humanely Euthanized him ( and got a badge and merits! ). It was sad, ahem, then we went looking for Eochai who we found was extremely Distraught and Rampaging west of the train station, so we Humanely Euthanized him as well, sniff...( and got a badge and merits! ). Anyway, I remember from live that Jack would leave his woods and Eochai would start his trek and if not disturbed, they would meet up and fight each other. The Vidiotsmaps Version of their course within the zone shows them never coming anywhere near each other, Was this Changed and I missed it? Anyway, it seems like the grid may be corrupted. If I recall how it was explained to me, there is an "under map grid" that say cars or NPC use that provides them their path, but it seemed like it had gaps or bad info because Jack spent 8+ hours stuck between a couple roots and his posse became a light snack went swimming. Just thought I would document it. Have a Great Day.

Somewhat simpler than using a VPN would be to Change your connection speed. If your Nid on your computer is set to 1000base ( GiG ) and you are running over Cat5 Cable or Wireless you can experience some weird connection issues if your Router/ Switch is GiG. The card sees the R/S and sets itself to GiG, only the cable is not capable of supporting GiG, so the undocumented packet loss causes all sort of problems. To test this as a possibility, Manually lock your connection speed to 100base, then try running it, it should run more smoothly. If you are on wireless this may also help. Upgrading to Cat6 or installing a wired connection instead of wireless can have a huge impact on gaming connectivity. Just a thought. There is a very small number of people having these issues, so the culprit is probably something relatively unique to your install or network. It's just a matter of isolating it. PS ( A steaming file such as Music or Video are not going to help diagnose the issue as they are Buffered, or loaded ahead of viewing and can request missing data. CoX requires a consistent Real Time connection to function properly )
