VileTerror Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 As many of you may know, if you click on street-wandering NPCs, they spout little lines of dialogue (like "I like pie."). Some, however, have specifically scripted statistic blurbs, based on the first letter of their names. Click on a wandering NPC whose name starts with M and they'll let you know the total number of hours you've spent logged in on a given character. I just did this, and found that I've spent 1343 hours on my main villain. That's over 55 days of play time. How's about you? 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call Me Awesome Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Back on Live CMA had somewhere around 5k hours online. I haven't checked anyone here but I doubt any character's much over 200.

nihilii Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 My main clocked in around 670 hours the other day. I tell myself most of it has to be AFK. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan Mail Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Yeah, I always look for Mike or Mxxxx whenever I ding 50. The last couple have been in the 40-45 hours range. Remember when it took 250 hours to get to 50 and that was somewhat 'respectable' or 'fast'? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on live, I had many thousands of hours on Ironblade. I ran overnight heal farms to get the badges for over a year-and-a-half. It didn't take that long for any one person - I helped dozens of people get the badges and I then switched to another character who I cycled through other people's SG's to get the healing badges for small groups since they unlocked base items.

I pulled him out for an ITF the other night but mostly just playing with all the alts now. Got 50 or so to deal with. Deleted a couple this morning, about to nuke a couple more, then I'll make new ones and keep playing the others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmySky Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 My longest time on any one toon hasnt cracked 800 hours. But I do have several alts so if I add it all its probably a number I don't want to know! 😁 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charistoph Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Too bad one doesn't show the time of all the characters.

VileTerror Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 HA! -My- highest is only level 27, Charistoph! I have over 100 characters, so . . . yeah. I can't quite fathom how many hours I've played total. Granted, dual-/multi-boxing obvious skews that number a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greycat Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Don't trust that number. It can end up inflated. I don't remember the mechanism behind it, but it can "run the clock" even with you logged off (unless that's been seen as a bug and fixed, I haven't heard of that.) I was in a set group of Shield tank/scrappers. We always played together. I maybe racked 1-2 hours not with the rest of the team selling things. On our 1-50 run, the other three were around 80-85 hours. Me? It showed over 300. 1 1 Kheldian Lore and Backstory Guide 2.0: HC edition Out to EAT : A look at Epic ATs - what is, could have been, and never was Want 20 merits? Got a couple of minutes?

DSorrow Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 No idea how many hours I had back in the day, but probably a huge number. On Homecoming most of my characters hit 50 with 20-25 hours played and I think my most played character is somewhere around 150 hours. This time around I don't farm or hunt badges besides those needed for some accolades which explains much of the difference.

ImpousVileTerror Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Up to 2145 hours on the prowl now with my main. So, over the past year and change, I've spent an average of about 20% of every day in-game. And that's not including the hours on all of my 130+ Alts (granted, with multiboxing, that time metric would be skewed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't check my HC level 50's atm, but my very first 50 on Live was about 750 hours though granted I was in no particular hurry. In comparison my first level 50 Green Machine (Emp/Rad/Dark) took about 250 hours and that was definitely fast at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are really curious (at least for future hours), you can add CoH manually as a game under the new GoG Galaxy client and it'll track total play hours for you (as long as you keep the launcher up). Shows me at 995 hours and 17 mins right now and I figure about 1,000 from before I started using it. Not to be a salesperson, but nice little program on its own that you can use to link, keep track of, and launch any game from any gaming service all in one spot. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, it won't go over how much I've already spent before setting it up. While I don't have the GoG app, I do have Steam, and Steam does track for its games, including the near 400 hours in Master of Orion (rerelease). I wonder if Steam does it for other games.

Not in my experience. I used Steam at first (added the CoH launcher as a non-Steam game), but Steam doesn't seem to track hours for non-Steam games that you add manually. Did make it a bit easier to take screenshots though as the CoH screenshots I took using F12 went right into Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrauleinMental Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I had about 2400 hours on my main during Live, and I have just over 700 hours on her with HC. Actual play time, no AFK shenanigans for me...but then it'll be a while before I get some of those badges. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
