    ask questions and reach out!!!  

     

    The absolute and unacceptable thing any game can do is eat the young.

    Good to know! Thanks for the advice!

     

    Now I'm thinking of going for Flying first, then take Jumping afterwards, ending with Speed for Hasten.

    Fly is my favorite. 


    Also, unlike your power selection these travel powers can be “respec” or swapped out if you don’t feel it. And trust me - character slots.  Can’t stop making / trying new stuff out.

  3. All of them!!!!  If you are concerned about being stuck on the ground there are many cheap jet packs to buy from p2w, earn from bank missions or other sources.  I put the power that best fits my characters story. 

     

    I will even take teleport which is the red headed step child of travel.  I just put the power in the zero “0” bubble and point, click, zero until I get there.

    I'm not privy to Homecoming's plans for the future but I'd guess that having a license from the IP owner makes a number of things easier. Server hosting, for example, can now search for a combination of price and reliability without having to prioritize "doesn't care about piracy". Openly advertising  our existence is another possibility. And I know of a least one person who's more willing to make an account thanks to the cloak of legitimacy the license provides.

     

    I want to get this in before the thread gets locked..... The single greatest development in all of this is ...... pineapple on pizza.

  5. I used to run “Sunday Villainy” at noon or 6pm on Sundays Liberty server.  Mayhems, story arcs, strike forces, new villains, incarnates, holiday content…. or just plain old street sweeping.  There is always a reason for villainy.

  6. Sorry if I repeat myself.  While I love powersets, zones, missions, AE, the sg base updates and new task force the best two enhancements COH:HC did was the 64-bit client and the HC client.  I have no idea how that was  done but it's cool.

     

    Year 2019, I crashed SO often.  I would say at least twice or more hourly and pick up teams thought I flaked or whatnot.  Tequila would have its own issues getting the game to start or tell me files were missing but they were there.  I even reloaded my computer Windows fresh bi-monthly and while that helped.... 95% of the crashes ended with the 64-bit client and 99.9% with the HC loader.

     

    I love the attention to infrastructure to just get people into a stable environment.  I look forward to finding out more about server hosting, security and beefing up services for what I hope will be an increase in player population.

  7. Thank you for the updates.  Will the next update be ....Issue 28???

     

    FYI MassivelyOP posted a new article.  For those unfamiliar with Massively, they have covered COH related news with a positive light for what seems like forever!

  8. Will HC see any additional options for collecting funding?  While I appreciate the current monthly method with the open/close window, I miss out sometimes.   I do not always get back here on the last Saturday of the month.

     

    Can we have a subscription process?  I have always liked the sub process and paid for two accounts all the years the game was live. 

     

     

     

     

  9.  

    welcome back to the game!  It's hard not to compare today to the past.

    There is still no wrong way to play the game.  1-50 solo, group, tfs, ae contente, farms, fire builds... some times I love to run to 50 with dble xp and all that.  sometimes I love to go slow and get there when I get there.  

     

    I just love the fact we have SO many slots per server and I can build a new character that runs only missions, mostly task forces, only team play, only solo, one AE arcs,  SO many options.  Yeah, I have my farmer and my solo money maker x8 +4.

     

    Still - welcome back!!!

  10. Sadly the numbers support the scammers.  Even one / one thousandths of a return rate and one / one hundred thousandth of a hit after that the scammers get money and they keep going.
     

    i supported an email system once many years ago and hourly 99.7 - 99.9% of incoming inbound internet was junk or spam caught by the various tools. I could not imagine the numbers today.

     

    ty Homecoming team for cleaning that up,  I appreciate you keeping the site clean.

    I think it would be cool to have customization tabs for henchmen. Especially with Thugs, so when you summon them, they always come out looking a certain way instead of randomized. Especially when you give your henchmen names and their look keeps changing  😁

     

    i have wanted this since city of villains launch.  Sadly I don't think henchmen customizations are coming any time soon.

    f.) Big Bee - I thought bees were tiny ... oh crap!

     

    Oh yeah!!! the Queen Bee comes out and starts casting all kinds of Placates.  Your friends are  now her drones!

  13. Bees mini power set.  When your hero or villain has been hanging out with radiation and nature a little too long.

     

    a.) Buzz Buzz tornado -  The horde flies in a circle and subject craps themselves.

    b.) Sting - ow.   cut it out.  ow.  cut it out .  ow.....

    c.) Cover a target -  Bee blankets and acts like a shot term Stun.  Add on a little psychological damage.  You are never normal again.

    d.) hive mind - you are one with the bees and sense their strength and anger.  Extra athletics and perception for a while.  

    e.) Sting 2 - you thought sting 1 was bad.... Bring epi-pens.

    Going by the coin they showed, and the wiki link. One could expect a civil war within the an enemy group, going by the old picture maybe a war with shadow reflections against the Rularuu. As the coin represents Ares who is on the coin was supposed to be a puppet king for the old Empire of Persia, where he tried to kill he puppet master but ended up killing himself instead.

     

    Revolution and chaos yadda yadda but a lot of upheaval could be happened, as the shadows might be trying to usurp in the shard and fight against their master to become something of their own entities with their own nuance.

     

    I can be completely off base here, and this is me going too deep into the minutia, so I am probably well off the mark in some odd way.

    I inferred murderous eunuchs would invade.
