Wrong coh attracts a different kind of people especially on blue side its not just like any other community ive played many mmos and especially compared to old days like everquest they are a really big difference thats not about ego lol. Seems your the one who has an issue with it to begin with and really just projecting your own ego.

I appreciate you guys really thanks for bringing the game back and fighting hard for yourselves and us. And most of all your hardwork and time.

You misunderstand why its important, the reason is because you knew how amazing the community was then and your helping bringing that back to mmos like this one, it has nothing to do with ego or being better and more to do with the communities like on the rp servers.

Yes that to.

Some classes are solo friendly others are not but doable if you turn down difficulty and have some influence and slot right. Anyways what kind of characters do you like to play? Have you tried illusion/radiation controller? Its a little slow at first but I recall soloing with him back in the day at the start it was not bad. Dark/Dark defender or corrupter can do wonders.

Tone it down a notch Cosmic... 1.) Very few people played CoX 7 years ago to now...If you are one of them congratulations, but the game is still by and large the same as it was in 2004 when it came out. Content has been added, Powersets have been added/tweaked, AT's added, lots of QoL improvements, but apart from Enhancements, there has been no key wholesale change in the game mechanics 2.) Solo Friendly does not mean "I can solo AV's and Bosses +4!!!!". Solo friendly (as many people have stated) means to them - I can get one, play almost all the content by myself, and still progress. 3.) Any AT can solo - sorry it's a fact - some will solo slowly, some faster, some might need to lower their difficulty, some might raise it - bu the speed/difficulty at which you advance does not define solo friendliness 4.) And yes, the game is also very team friendly - in fact part of the original vision for CoH, for better and worse, was a game where you could solo or team and still have a good time... Alright I will as long as they do, well most people do not use the term solo friendly for very slow and grindy but if you say so. Yes lowering difficulty as I stated before I already said it CAN be done but its hardly anything to write home about.

All projectiles need an option for colors to in my opinion, and eventually some sound options, tech bow, laser pistols and etc.

I know you guys have much to work on but before you guys come out with new sets and what not you think this is something you can look at? Honestly all the other melee older sets just feel horrible compared to new ones like db, staff, or street justice. For example katana does not feel half as fast as staff because in staff your always animating with katanna you look very clunky while your charging your next attack.

I want a battlemage playstyle, maybe a blaster in reverse with less damage and a little more tanky?

Some ats simply have better synergy with power sets, and thats great, I prefer it this way. Dark/Dark is great with defenders/ corruptors.

Now I am confused. You've gone from saying CoH isn't solo friendly to sounding like you're arguing that it is... And not being able to tank raid bosses or large packs solo doesn't make a game "not solo friendly" either. Solo friendly just means that you can level and quest at a reasonable rate solo. WoW had that from day one. And, in recent years, has changed a LOT from what you described. Still can't solo raid bosses you haven't massively outleveled, but it's often a simple matter to solo multiple enemies. Everquest, that was not solo friendly save for a couple classes. Soloing even one mob at a time was a time consuming struggle for most classes. Wrong eq had quite a few solo classes and you can solo about the same pace with unsolo friendly classes, but it was better to team just like cox, you prove to me you can solo better then eq1 with a force field/radiation defender with a video if you believe this so much.

That's just utterly false. Some have an easier time than others, but any AT can be soloed to 50 fairly easily. Your reading skills must be utterly false as I clearly stated you can with most but are far slower older MMOs are not solo encouraged they have classes that are solo friendly period Being slower does not equal "not solo friendly"... My reading comprehension skills are just fine, you're own personal definitions for terms are the problem. What are you talking about? If you want to play that game then lets play shall we? Solo friendly implies its easier to solo with this term, now if you say solo unfriendly this implies the opposite it does not mean you cannot solo though, you knew you assumed you just do not want to look wrong why don'\t you pointless argument with someone else your skill level next time? It is not a personal defintion everyone who plays cox 7 years ago to now knows for a fact that there are classes in this game very solo unfriendly, and this is not just the at but the power combination because guess what? They are more team friendly gaaaasp!!!! This is in fact an old school mmo sorry that bothers you so much maybe you should go play something with instant gratification like guild wars 2.

That's just utterly false. Some have an easier time than others, but any AT can be soloed to 50 fairly easily. Your reading skills must be utterly false as I clearly stated you can with most but are far slower older MMOs are not solo encouraged they have classes that are solo friendly period

Mmos get ruined when its not team encouraged, part of the reason why cox is so good is the importance and diversity of team roles, I hear you on being able to solo but lets not want that in sacrifice of team things to.

Sadly there is no option for turning off redraw on staff other then that its a decent dps with higher defensive set from what I hear.

I've largely solo'd to 50+ multiple times over the years. It is incredibly convenient and easy to just play it like a single player game with a lot of interesting costumed people also present. I actually don't team much because of my disability and physical challenges... I can't be relied upon to be present all the time in any given team. But solo play is every bit as easy as something like Skyrim or Fallout 3. EDIT TO ADD: This is simply nonsense. There is no way to play the game "properly". Log in, do something. You're playing the game properly. The only way to play it improperly is to grief or harass others. Solo? AE Farm? Publish missions and never team? Only raids? PL to 50 and Mothership all day? Just badge hunt? Just tour and take pretty screenshots? Just play dressup and do nothing but make cool costumes? You are playing the game "properly" in all these cases. Sorry you have a hard time friend but as I said sure you can solo with classes that arent meant to solo but it will be far slower having influence helps.

And for me, CoH is THE most solo-friendly MMO game I’ve ever played lol. I love to solo or to duo with a friend, and on Live I was able to solo the Sister Psyche TG with my emp/sonic defender and a few shivans whilst chatting with friends in chat. Instances mean we don’t have to hang around in the overworld waiting for mobs to respawn and other players to bugger off, and pretty much any AT can solo even ‘hard’ content if you use inspirations and temp powers effectively. And yes, it’s also awesome for teaming :) I also love that it doesn’t have facing. Urgh I hate bloody facing in MMOs. I love the click target and then click your powers, and your hero turns to face. MCM Coh is not that solo friendly. it has solo friendly classes but far from being truly solo friendly and thats a good thing in an mmorpg.

Its not really action combat, and it takes a while to even feel powerful in combat because of the builder system.

Dude you should know why by now there are tons of posts on reddit about this its proven why cox is a better mmorpg in general, co is not much of an mmo to begin with hence why the population has always been kind of crappy. Just to name a few cox has far better power customization and viable builds while co gives you the illusion of freeform choice when in reality your pushed into only a few decent builds. The content plan sucks because all the exp is increased for doing bank runs and etc no one wants to group to do the actual content until max level, so the leveling experience just sucks. Most people do not even actually play the game, they hang out and show their costumes more then anything else. Co has a terrible build up system where it takes forever to fire off anything powerful, the combat somehow manages to feel even more awkard and slower then older mmos in general. The team mechanics are terrible and they actually cut out allot of cc from the game, far less team roles in the game and turned out to be kind of the holy trinity. Cox has far deeper team mechanics and many ways to help your teams. Lootboxes, need I say more here? The company has been terrible when it comes to balances changes, content updates, and helping whats supposed to be an mmorpg grow. The community is pretty bad compared to most. The list goes on and on. While co does have cool things better travel powers/look customization and better graphics with powers, and better super bases thats all it has over cox. I want a full mmo experience not some imitation of a super hero mmo.

Basically I'm using an aoe on claws and when a guy is sitting on an object, in this case a blood brother sitting on a metal box he did not even get up at first. I will test it out more. Minor update, I forgot to mention they are grey enemies to me right now.

I think its more fair to simply delete them and let others figure it out.

Everyone has been pretty cool there are some condescending people in the help chat on everlasting though I have noticed, and I also noticed allot of people ignore the ones asking for help. Other then that its still amazing.

I agree with you on this.

Hey bro you have to understand these other servers could possibly been some of the people spreading rumors, im fairly certain ive seen a few reddit posters do this and have post history saying more things about hc before but I could be wrong, most of us who play on hc are level headed and are just kind of tired of all the drama surrounding hc. For all we know you could be doing the same thing. But you seem like a reasonable guy even if it is just for pretend.

The way I see it is all is that it was their server, how is it wrong to not want to split the community and share your work with others trying to run a private server? Not to mention they did not want the heat, I recall something specifically about sharing the code and would of been really bad if they did. Whats happening here is people are twisting the original statement they made. And just because one person may have said this or that does not mean the entire team is at fault, people need to stop feeling entitled here in the first place, you know very well how people take things way out of contexts these days. Honestly who cares about the drama if patch notes arent enough proof for you well cya and do not let the door hit you on the way out, because they clearly care about the game and the community and thats enough for me and it should be enough for you. We are all here for free remember that.
