  1. Can't say I won't use silly names. I already have Jester Notherguy and Artie Choke.
  2. My character Milford Whimple's battle cry is "Behave, you hooligans!" His bio: Milford Whimple is a chemist at the Paragon Potty Paper Emporium. One night, as he was working on a new sensitive skin formula, members of the Skulls broke in and tossed him in a vat of chemicals. When Whimple emerged, he found he had been endowed with super strength and invulnerability--and a nice lilac scent. He has dedicated his life to safeguarding the people of Paragon City from evil-doers and developing the softest yet toughest potty paper to protect Paragon's posteriors.
  3. I don't have any alts. Just 90+ mains. In CoH. Doesn't count all my mains in LOTRO and STO. Someone once asked me how much time I have to spend in games to play all of those characters. My response is that it doesn't take any more time to play 100 characters than it takes to play 1. It just gives me variety in how I spend that time. 🙂 That may be why I don't have any characters at the level cap in LOTRO (and I'm a Founder/Life-timer). By the time one of my characters gets there, some smart aleck has moved the cap.
  4. I had several characters on Live that I was very slowly leveling up entirely via the AE, so XP was part of the AE on Live. I didn't do any farms, just story arcs. No insta-max levels for me. To me, the AE offered a change of pace and the opportunity to play a bunch of new content, which gave a much more varied leveling experience. While I only designed one active story arc of my own, I was working on a number of concepts, so the creative side was also a blast. The AE was never an holographic simulator for my characters. From my perspective, the missions my characters took were every bit as "real" as any of the official story arcs. Frankly, the only major issue I really had with the AE--on Live or Homecoming--was that I couldn't filter farms out of my searches.
  5. For me, auras yes, capes no. It always seemed silly to me to have to wait until such a late level to add a cape to your costume. Capes are a staple of superhero costumes and should be available at character creation. Unless you're Mr. Incredible, of course. Then "no capes!" I still run the cape missions on occasion (even on caped characters) just as a change of pace. 🙂
  6. I'm not talking about door sitters. I'm talking about the rest of us. The problem with your "solution" is that it hurts everyone, not just door sitters.
  7. It's not; I never said or even implied that it was. I don't door sit, I play missions.
  8. Holy cow! Why would the devs want to destroy a fun part of the game for their players? I never PL or farm in the AE. Never have, on Live or on HC. But I enjoy playing AE story missions at various levels so that I'm not just doing the same mission arcs over and over again, with little variation. They are a fantastic change of pace and add to the enjoyment of the game. On live, I even had a few characters that ONLY did AE missions--and they leveled very, very slowly (because I didn't do farms). It was a lot of fun. I even wrote a story mission myself and have been considering designing new missions here as well. It's great, creative fun. If I level characters through the AE (slow or fast), it has absolutely no effect on others' ability to enjoy the game. I don't do ITFs or PVP (on HC or NCSOFT servers), I mostly solo or play story content with my family/friends. If the AE had never existed, I still wouldn't be raiding. The AE changed nothing in that regard for a lot of players. It just gave us other options to play the type of content we enjoy most.
  9. The original question was: Does CoH run in windows 11. The answer is: Yes. Everything I loaded on my Windows 11 PC has worked fine so far.
  10. My new PC is Windows 11. I'm running CoH, LOTRO, SWTOR, and STO on it with no problems at all. The machine is blazing fast, no hitches, smooth as silk so far.
  11. Ah, this is true. I just liked the bottom left, so it worked for me. I misread that part of your comment.
  12. FYI, you can move the taskbar to the left. I hated it centered too. Right click on the taskbar and select Taskbar Settings Click on Taskbar Behaviors (near the bottom of the settings screen) In the dropdown next to Taskbar Alignment select Left As for Gaming in Windows 11 in general, I run CoH, LOTRO, STO, and SWTOR with no problems so far.
  13. A very Merry Christmas to you all! And, A Cat, for the record: If I am in game tomorrow, it will most likely be with my family. :)
