Sorry to see this happen to you Snarky (again). Personally I wouldn't run higher level stuff with a random PUG as several others have noted. Now I don't run any high level stuff since I don't want to risk having something that big get ruined by some moron. That said, I almost always PUG since I don't have a steady group to play with. I really enjoy PuGging since I like the randomness of it all. Usually pick up teams work just fine, but sometimes you get a group that doesn't work stellar. I find it kinda charming. //Jack

I'm just now running through the gold part of the game for the first time since forever. While in transit from one mission to the other, I tried to assist a poor PPD officer harassed by a member of the Destroyers. The Destroyer goon had a red threat box as expected, and the PPD officer had a yellow one. I charged the destroyer and promptly defeated him (no AoEs used). I was kind of surprised when the PPD officer attacked me from behind, forcing my hand against him as well. As I'm following the loyalist path I figure this isn't the way it should work, but I'm not really sure on how the yellow threat boxes actually work as in the blue side of the game I only see them on Crey employees, and they deserve a good beating in any circumstance. Is this a bug? Or (probably more likely) me not knowing how stuff really works? //Jack

There's a lot to say about why I love our City, but I think most have already been said. I'd answer a modified question: Why do I still play? Or why did I come back? I came back for nostaglia since I from 2012 to 2019 kept searching for the same sense of home and not really finding it in any other game. When I got back to CoH it felt so familiar and welcoming. This time I brought my two boys with me. And since last weekend we all talked their mom into joining us! This is a woman that thinks Minecraft is difficult :). It was very cool to play the four of us at once around the same table. In the broader view of things I take this as a sign that this game has someting for everyone, and even if you take a break now and then you usually drift back to Paragon City or the Isles or even Praetoria for that matter. //Jack

Why not? To be honest I may have forgotten an 'or' in the paragraph. Thank you for the commentary anyways. //Jack

Well, I'd take that for granted. Was kinda thinking that a wider AoE would be lowed in damage and maybe tohit, higher end cost, stiffer recharge. //Jack

Old thread, but same issue. //Jack

Same here. One in three characters can get into the game. Edit: I get this: Waited several minutes just to get the same message. //Jack

Could there be something to gain from radiuses (radii?) to respond to range enhancements? //Jack

Cool! That's what I thought, but thanks for the confirmation. These changes are just for the player right? Wouldn't think it be ok for some random player to change anything for the entire playerbase. Is there som old gallery with examples of what the comunity has done with this? //Jack

20. If you announce your TF to be a slow, defeat most, kind of affair, don't ask "Ok with you if we speed this?" after starting the TF just because the reqruitment took five minutes. //Jack

I love tools and aid programs. But could someone explain what this is used for? //Jack

I'd say the guide is still valid. The inf-numbers quoted in the guide might be lower (or higher) now I can't say off the top of my head. But the ideas are still sound I guess. //Jack

Or... And hear me out... Every month was April! //Jack

Mr Bruce. Welcome back to the game. My warmest thanks for all that you have done for this game we all love. I hope to see you in game. //Jack

And check out her youtube series on base building. Even an old Snark would find a video tutorial easy to follow I bet. 🙂 //Jack
