Energy Melee was a dead horse too, but people kept talking about it. Had nobody ever talked about it for fear of beating a dead horse, the Devs may have never came up with a solution. I don't see the logic in keeping silent about the subject. If somebody owes me money, they won't be very motivated to pay me back if I never ask them about the money they owe me. Same with topics such as these, if something needs looked at, it won't get looked at if the players don't bring the subject up from time to time. Posting memes of beating a dead horse only undermines and makes a mockery out of the subject. That is why I gave it a thumbs down. Nothing personal, I just didn't want to show support to the gesture by laughing at it.

Glad you like it. 🙂

Oh well, too much trouble to fix it. It will just have to stay, lol.

Doh!

This mod may affect other sounds in game, but if the portals give you headaches, this mod will be worth it.

This mod may affect other aspects of the game, so far I have discovered none, but that doesn't mean that you won't find at least something, somewhere. However, here is a video of the mod and you can find it on the CoH Modder Tool.

That is wild indeed, considering I have yet to witness anyone with Regen as their secondary. Kind of blows my mind really. However, I will say this, is it feasible that people are power-leveling to 50, finding out how horrible it is and not playing them? So now they are just level 50 Regen Scrappers being shelved? I wish we had a time played chart rather than a chart that shows how many exist.

It existed in the 80's among the hacking community. I'm just saying I don't recall seeing it in game (outside the Freakshow) until the game was well within it's second year. But, my memory of the events is old as dirt, so take it with a grain of salt, lol.

is that short for doing the Holky polky? haha. I hear ya though.

You're probably right, I just can't ever recall seeing leet speak names until after I had been playing for quite some time.

Yes, but I don't recall seeing players using leet speek until after the generic names started drying up. Like I said, I am not 100% on any of this, but this is how I remember it.

Not 100% on this, but I am fairly certain the only reason leet speak existed in this game was of because players not being very creative with names. We didn't see leet speak in this game until around i6 or i7 if memory serves. They were so desperate to get that generic name that was already taken, that after trying,, The Shadow TheShadow xTheShadowx XxThe ShadowxX Xx The Shadow xX T H E S H A D O W ...and any other variation just to find they were all taken because there were several other desperate players who were also not very creative, they decided to start adding numbers in place of letters to get that name they wanted, IE... 7h3 5h@d0w The style of writing was thus born out of desperation.

I have taken issue with this before as well. it's to a point that I don't even use white on my face masks anymore.

"And knowing is half the battle!"

Okay, thank you...I thought I was maybe missing out on some marketing trick, lol.

How in the hell are people buying these for 10 Influence? Please explain to me how this is even possible when there are 725 people bidding? What, are they all bidding 10 influence? I am so confused.

No, let's not...it was dumb then and it's dumb now. Some things you just don't bring back, L33T 5P33K should remain buried just like pants from the 70's and 80's. I rank this in there with Bell Bottoms and Parachute Pants. Once you get rid of cock roaches, you don't purposely bring them back, you don't bring back a used port-o-potty and you don't bring back the turd you flushed an hour ago, therefore you don't bring back l33t 5p33k.

Only the Devs have control over fading sounds. What I can do is either turn the volume down on those sounds, or change them to something less intrusive. I'll look in to the Portal one and see if I have something or can whip up something that is a lot easier on the ears and get back with you. I think I have the sound just for it, I'll have to see if it fits before I make it a mod though. So check back within the next day or two.

LOL, sorry. That was probably me, hahaha!

The Atom is not covered in a thick fog of smoke either. So Atom can disagree if he wants to. 😛

You'll have to forgive the images being a file, the actual web page image links wouldn't work for two of them and apparently the files won't work either, so I'll just remove them, lol.

I figure the glowing effect would be perfect for this particular one, especially since it already exists with Energy Aura. Something like this...

I can see the option working fine for large bodies, or maybe a monstrous character, but for a character that look heroic, it's a bit much I think. it needs a glowing affect option, much like what you can get with Energy Shields.

Sorry to Necro this, but I don't like making multiple threads of the same topic. I had to google this to find it, but rather than make my own thread, I would like to give support to this one. It's a great set, but those effects can be very overbearing on some character concepts. It's perfect for some, but for others it;s just too much. A minimal Effect option would be nice indeed. Something that allows you to actually see your costume. Maybe an aura rather than a surrounding effect like it is now. Like a glowing aura?

Good times, good times!
