Some Observations, Impressions, a few Reminisces, and a Couple of Questions

[AlBQuirky]

First off, Thanks to your team for getting CoX up and running again! You have gotten BACK into MMORPGs! The other day, I actually played a single game for over 6 six hours straight. I have not done that in decades. I log into Wizard101 on occasion and P1999 when I get an old EQ longing. Neither of those games keep me logged in for long, or looking forward to logging in again. I actually heard the "glowie" sound as I laid down to sleep :)

 

So much I had forgotten about the game. I'm grateful for the tutorial to help refresh my faulty memory. It took about 4 characters running through before I realized that at the end of CoX's run, Galaxy City was destroyed. I always chose Galaxy City as my home base so I was disappointed it was not an option... until I remembered :)

 

I made my characters on the Everlasting server (fitting, I thought). It has been taking quite some time to go from logging in to seeing my character select screen, between 45 seconds to 1 minute. I wondered if that was a server communication issue, but today when I logged in, the time seemed better, more as I recalled.

 

A couple of Questions:

1) "Patrol XP." What is that again? This question comes from the "experienced power" that we get right off of the bat. I've clicked a couple of times and saw a kind of sort of level up graphic, but no increase in level. In your "info" description, it talks of only using once per level and having only 5 uses, but I'm still foggy on what exactly this does. In have noticed that my XP bar has a blue area that exceeds what my pink bar shows. I think I mistakenly saw that as debt. Is that how the "Patrol XP" shows?

 

2) "1000 Characters." Is that per server or total overall? I doubt I'll ever get near that number, but was curious :)

 

3) "Notoriety." Is that a global setting or per character? I was happy to be told where this was as I was having loads of trouble with whatever the default setting was, visiting the hospital sometimes 2 or 3 times per group of baddies. Once found, though, the criminals became more possible to arrest. But I noticed that ALL my characters qwere set to this new "notoriety", so thought I'd ask :)

 

Again, thanks for all you team's hard work! It is appreciated :)
