Sure msg me here or in game.

Sure MSg me here or in game.

something like this?

"Instead of just building another ghost base no one will use" I do and will build if there is no Interest. was just a offer to the community in case anyone was looking for a base builder.

I think I would go the outher Way Poor inf into the market over a long time picking up hundreds of thousands of IO's millions of converters Etc. prob take 3-4 years of buying and hording and setting up over thousands of different toons. (as you can only have 200 things in your market at a time i think) then before I leave the game post Everything for 1 inf. Overflooding the market for a year or so in cheap Everything, then when the supply runs out the market would adapt but for how ever long the billions of inf you put into the market might make a decent bit of chaos. with any luck you would have a room full of you Billionaire investor friends all there to help lower the market cost. (and buy things at 1 inf to have it show up how low things are selling for) I think the insane them it would take just to set it all up makes it never worth it, but might be fun to see that Chaos of people filling there inventory up with as many purples as they could get while there only a 1 hoping to make a profit later.

I was away for the Summer and still left frustrated at the large base I was working on (dang floating objects.) I often build on a different base to get back into the groove of things and then pick away at my big base again when I feel less like breaking my computer. Instead of just building another ghost base no one will use Figured I would ask here if any one want a small-mid sized base (3-5 rooms) Preferably all in base building, I can send pick of things I have Built if there is any interest or post it here if people just want to see.

I have sold more then a few Rooms for inf here and there and a base or 2 But Its not that common I think. for me mostly people I play with who like to hang out in one of the bases I made will ask if I will make something for them, most the time I will. If i'm feeling burnt out or don't want to many people to ask i'll charge often 500 mill inf for a room. I have only charged for 5 ish rooms on HC, But if you got well known in the community and did not charge a lot i'm sure you could make a good amount of inf every month doing it.

that Because it is not an answer to you but to Overlordoutpost My answer to you was I just don't agree with this, just a difference of opinion I guess. But to address each point. First: Every MMO is different there is no one way that works best for them how you RP in COH will often be different in say WOW. The people community and overall game mechanics change everything on General RP in mmos. Second: This was just a point on What I called In world RP, it had nothing to do with the in base Rp was just explaining to Overlordoutpost how I divide the 2 RP and how you can take a lvl 2 in pocket D seriously but should not let your "RP Ides" kill important in game mechanics if your planning to play in the world. But we aren't talking about running in game content./ I was There are things that would be entirely feasible for a character to have or to do in the CoH universe but are not something you can actually back-up with in game mechanics. / True but that is why when your playing "In base RP" you more or less ignore game mechanics for the most part, Witch is what I more or less said. Do rich characters need to have a ton of Inf in order to roleplaying being rich? ( no? inf is not $ its inf the game made INF the currency so your toon could be Rich with $ and make like crazy advanced teck and not have to be in game rich to justify it. Does someone who's character has an amazing hideout need to be an amazing basebuilder and actually build the hideout? ( no but it would be cool,) If someone is a fire/fire blaster and they write that their character is highly resistant to fire need to be able to run a firefarm to justify the trait? ( depends? for IN WORLD RP yes they should be good Vs fire as there power will give them al ot of defense for it. IN BASE no they can do w/e they want nothing matters in Base is 90% just Text base) Is a level 50 fully built staff/willpower brute who's concept is literally "I'm a janitor" stronger than your character because they can beat you in PvP? ( could be? "weak" people beat "strong" ones all the time in Comic books the point of the In base PVP was not to prove who is stronger but to help make the story. you could just to Text base RP of ya im hulk I must auto win Because hulk is strongest there is, if you want to do that your free to, I argue why play the mmo then, use the mechanics to the games like you would a GM do a pvp fight Or dice or w/e you want and see who wins then Rp abound the the result you did not know you where going to have over just RP what you wanted to happen because HULK STRONG. COH PVP can turn off all enhancements make you both w/e lvl you want etc you can make the fight as fair or unfair as you want. I would argue no on all counts. You are ENTIRELY correct that you have every right to opt out of any situation you don't like, but we are once again falling back to our ultimate disagreement as to how much roleplaying in an MMO differs from a freeform forum based roleplay. In my opinion, the game's mechanics help inform a roleplay and are a tool to be used. There is nothing about the actual mechanics of the game that make utilizing every aspect of them an absolute requirement. I have no idea what your talking about here. my point of ( Sure i'll go along with it but in my mind you need to beat me in PVP or something ( i do not build for pvp) I'm fine with letting people "be who they want" until they try to affect my Toon into w/e there doing, then IMO I can opt out or we can use in game mechanic to Decide how the RP will go ) Is just how I deal with god-modding in COH if you want to affect my Toon in some way then I turn to in game mechanics to see how it goes, They might win and mind control me etc or they might loose and we RP what happens that way ( most god-modders will not risk loosing and just opt out) but again how I RP is as long as its all text I'll RP along as soon as your trying to affect me or i'm trying to affect you in some way you use what you have in game to come to the Decision over just Well my toon is power level over 9000 black ball beats it all you have to loose stuff.

Idk when your making 100 mill a hour not doing anything but standing afk with a few account while you do your RP or also Farm hamidon or MSR you dont need to do much but Sell everything you make and horde all the INF into one account. I dont think there Farming for drop just to get Free inf while they play, They might store all there purples in a base or something for any player to grab from when they want/need to craft, but there just farming to make the 500 mill a day (5-6 hours of play/farm) to about 2 and a half billion a week? do they need to craft or anything that all takes time after all the point of the afk farm seem to be to make inf and do nothing.

I have but RPers seem to hate Anything related to PVP. (not all but I would guess over half) I have had a few fun "bar fights" in pocket D with the Cage area, And if you ever do want a "private bar rp" you can also use the cage for that as you can add passwords invite only to feel like you "rented" an area for Business, and with it being a PVP zone your free to RP it going Violent 😛 (only happened once's poor trolls) Really just anything for more open world RP would make me happy.

It's not the same. things in the open world bring people to them and lead to more open world RP. IF there was say a Skull base in the Sewer under KR People might make Skulls to hang out there or hero's might go there just to bet up skulls. Then they might bump into each outher and RP 😛 or Again with any base it might be a locations you use when you want to "shake down" an informant for RP etc. the Stuff from Null the gull is fine and I use the warf alot, but the warf feels empty of crime and null is in a sudo private area. I hade more hero try to "stop" me when I was "guarding" a drug line for dyne then I ever did on the beach in talos.

its 8 afk farmers on 1 map, as far as I know. I think its a cave map they set up at the entrance and over 20 min or so the full map will walk into them at the front they set the tanks up in front 1 healer in the middle and 2 dmg dealers in the back rest I think is brutes and just leave the AOE on over 20 min they clear the map and reset it. Think they said they where averaging over 100mill inf an hour (not including drops so) so just about 4 mill per toon per map, and would just play normally on there Main just needing to stop to Reset the map.

I just don't agree with this, just a difference of opinion I guess. This was just more of the point It would be nice if there was more to do in Mish then just Hit things. most TF I think could add extra side objectives to this stuff kind of like In ITF how you can Hack the turrets and turn them into allies. not that you cant RP something because its not a mechanic in the game Just it would be nice IF there was more things to do in big mish then just hit things till they fall. Like I Said you Get 3 builds I agree gimping yourself for the sake of a In game mish will suck and most the time is pointless, Unless your in a RP Sg you like and Everyone has more or less built to be a "team" mine was less about I wont see you as superman if your not lvl 50 max build (unless you want to keep up PVP for W/E reason and I have to loose cuz your Superman) I just Break the RP in 2 parts In world RP and In base Rp. In World RP you need to be playable it might affect the Idea to your hero's Story like a petless MM because you want a whip. Its fine to do that and I wont be mad at people if they want to be there hero But you get 3 builds make you Petless MM one of the 3 for fun don't jump into a Master TF run and say ITS MY RP. might as well say its what my Character would do. like D&D and most game you need to be able to Function at your in game job. But like you Said its Easy to be strong in this game, if you don't have the time or Inf to build into a demi god (and somehow you dont know a player willing to just give you INF or earn it in some way because you have to do it all yourself with your 20 min limited time to play) you can still do -1 mish and beat everything. But if you have limited time you are prob only Rping the outher way. I base RP the pen and paper stuff Sure you can be a lvl 2 demi god you just got here and are not going to "lvl" up as you don't care about human Security level. All fine you want to be a arrogant Jack ass in pocket D for 6 hours on how your the best and w/e Sure its your RP, (or the other way a lvl 50 "normal" human) But then to Challenge Everyone to fights or mind control people and they have to do what you say, Sure i'll go along with it but in my mind you need to beat me in PVP or something ( i do not build for pvp) I'm fine with letting people "be who they want" until they try to affect my Toon into w/e there doing, then IMO I can opt out or we can use in game mechanic to Decide how the RP will go ( you can also just type it all out but I prefer to use what's in the game or why play the game I can do that in discord or form RP) I do not find the RP mix well together. but you can use both, after a mish it was not uncommon for the SG to go back to base heal up (one of the players was a DR) if you fell in the mish you might have a broken bone or W/E if you heal super fast you might not need them or have inv you might Decide you can always fall and never be hurt or you did not even "fall" just you where thrown thew a wall and had to hold it up until a hero could assist you or you fond people and had to get them out of danger. how you Decide what a in game mechanic works for you is fine for me but there part of the game and should not just be ignored because its not what you want to happen.

I understood your point in my Made up Example it was how you could still use magic to "fix" the problem and not have it more or less be a instant perma fix and have RP to build on. But again If your a high lvl magic caster you could Fix some issues on the spot forever Like Super Cancer, Again it's magic IMO it can do anything, if COH magic was better defined it would have issues but its not. The approache I often take as a Caster who can "fix anything" when rping with people is often just ask them have they looked into magic it can prob fix anything, if they say they don't want that I drop it and RP more the way they want to fix W/E problem they have. Its there toon and there RP I'm just along for the ride. IF they had no idea and just wanted anyone to fix it and leap at the magic option I talk with them OOC on what they want and work to there Goal. That just IMO how you RP with people, I mean sure you could use Super Science alien stuff etc, my McGuffin is Magic. But it does not change again that in COH magic can prob Fix or Break anything as far as the setting.

Might be a Bit bias on this one as I mostly play a mage But to me magic probably could solve Everything if it was real, I mean it's magic BUT again if its an RP then how you get to that spot is what matters. What your power are out of control and you want magic to fix it sure. There is a spell we will need to Break into the COT to get the book, Great we got the book now ne need to go all over and get the material for it. good you got all that, now we need to wait till the full moon and cast the enchantment on this amulet. Got that done Great now keep the amulet and your power will be under control, make sure the Circle does not know you have it OR any villain its worth a lot people will try and steal it and we will have to do all this again. I disagree with most your points up there the Issue is not the Rpers its how they do the RP One of the worst ways you can determine a character's power level in any respect is by how they perform mechanically in combat. How else should I see your power level? if you can just tell me why bother with the mmo? just RP online in Text. Are you Superman well then why are you spending 90% of your time on the ground vs skulls. If you want to play the game but also be "weak" you get more then one build. all my toons have 3 builds Solo/Team/RP you can swap between them with a push of a button, some of my toons RP build are not even past lvl 30 But they still have a lvl 50 still full io set and incarnates because I like there build. I'm not going to say you have to have a full build to be able to RP but if you want to RP as a Demi god and be lvl 1 in pocket D some how I have to look at this and know in a moment you could end the universe with a thought you need to put in more effort then the Link to your 500 page back story in your info. I do agree there is little for the "batman" to do is most mish in COH I would like them to have more one guy fights off the mob of ambush while the other one does there computer skills to stop the robots as the turn on but nothing can be done there unless you make your own AE (and I do try to make more interesting things in my AE mish for everything like a clue you would only get if your magical etc) But at the end of the day each player wanted to be a different hero and sure when the rik'ti war hits superman flys up and attacks the ship and batman stays on the ground and teams up with the lower level heros giving them orders and protecting the Civs. nothing wrong with that that is what they wanted to RP as.

Just wondering if this is just me, But I would like some more Fun stuff just out in the world to both RP around and RP in. like maby the Freakshow places could get some couches and a TV. the trolls caves could get some of the same. the old Pocket D could be a troll Rave, could put some labs or secret basses (both hero or villain) in the sewers so I don't need to use an AE map Etc I did notice in Kings row there was a Few "pop up" lines for getting Dyne and have used them for RP But would just like IDK more? a Skull base to hang out in (that is not a SG base) again would not need to be fancy maby just a few dumpster together with a Roof over top in a corner or something. I would loose my mind in delight if there was more PPD/Gang or even Gang Vs gang fights in the open world to RP around or play with. Any know if that is even possible? or wanted? Am I just crazy again XD

ya Tried that, even had to have the 4-5 other people I was RPing with around me Defend me and the difference between OOC and IC. Because I Was sending tell and they where just talking (( LIKE THIS )) yelling about w/e it was. In the end I just left and avoided them, I think they still yell at me when they get the chance I just avoided them so it is not often.

Team? alot of the farmers I know Afk 8 toons at a time for max Inf/rewards while they also play going back every 10 min or so to refresh the map. This has done nothing to stop that. they still AFK farm 8 toons at a time They still make as much Inf as they did (more or less) BUT now they dont del the farm toon when its Vet 50 and RM it to also Farm Super Merts. The farmers this hurt will adapt and things will go back to the way they where. I still think the Devs should make a Farm option for when your making a AE map that just give more EXP/Inf then other AE maps but no Rewards. (assuming that is possible)

Not Sure I have run into a lot of RP drama in HC, Been Rping in it for about 3-4 years now I think? My biggest issue has been Meta Info, I always Tried to leave all the OOC info I could about my toons in my info as I did not want to "trick" people if I was RP a shape shifter or w/e. Sadly over time I have had to remove most my OOC info and now have to send Tells to people if we start to get past "General conversation RP"(sadly they often Feel I tricked them or loose interest as they liked the "hero" I was pretending to be over the Assassin my toon was) . I mostly just Avoid the GodKins in pocket D if there not at least lvl 50 I mean ITs a Super Hero RP they want to be Thor or W/E i'll RP with it But they at least need to put in the effort XD I have had a few people be mad at Me and and take it out on w/e toon i'm playing But I count that with Meta info.

I have been told I play "hardcore" because of this But If I fall in a map and cant Rez I just delete the toon. I'm ok if I fall in the street or something or a friend comes and saves me from a map, but if solo and there was no way for me to get to the hospital I just kill them off. (Delete them and move on.) If you want something more "real" you can go with that.

I have always seen the forums as a waste of time 😛 its like twitter before twitter was a thing. people argue and yell at each other here then get muted, soon enough you only get msg and convo with people you already agree with. things like how to build X or how to make X work here as people with knowledge can answer questions to people who are new. Fixing the game, what needs to be added etc. Are always a questions to nothing, the Devs might look in on them but I have never found it will change anything.

There is the Paragon Unmasked guy, idk if he has a full SG or not.http://www.virtueverse.net/wiki/Paragon_Unmasked

Hello, I don't often use the form but thought why not. Trying to make a Heavy In city RP VG (sg cuz its blue side) on a bunch of the different gangs in paragon (mostly low lvl ones) The point of the VG is to do In city Activity's and add some random fun. Goals and hopes for the VG is to add some random Events into the world (if we ever got big enough) Possible RP pvp Combat done threw the Arena (could use pvp zones if there was interest) Add some fun ways for people to learn about the city or its lore. Or again even just to be there as interactable "npc" people could talk to for there RP The Gangs I started with are Skull Hellion Troll Outcasts Vahzilok looking for anyone interested in joining, working with me on the project, or even just throw questions at me here to see if I can even Defend this mess of an idea.

"There's quite a lot of crossover and mixes. For instance, a demon with some innate magical power may come to our dimension, then expand their abilities through study and spellcasting, then create magical items to simplify or expand their spellcasting, or create enduring charms or spells (buffs), and then finally, achieve a connection to the Well of the Furies and become magic incarnate" This is more or less been my Main for the last 2 years, Started as a hellion Summoned "demon Girlfriend" and has changed threw RP Study Magical items ect.
