I am reasonably certain the code requires periodic regen nerfs to remain stable.

What had me so concerned were specific posts in various CoH related Discord servers, and FB groups saying things to the effect of "Hey!  XXXXXXX server has this new kewl thing.  I'm wanting to try it out, but I don't know how to do it.  Anybody help?".  Or "Stability, and large numbers are great, but I just GOTTA try this new thing!  XXXXXX server, here I come!".  

But, apparently the numbers are small enough not to be of major concern, so I won't be concerned.

To be honest, if HC's methodical approach results in more stuff like Electrical Affinity, sign me up for methodical.  That set is pretty much perfect.

I played a defender to 50 with it.  I agree completely!

Just lemme make an OP martial arts/kin and her cousin from the stupid side of the family who is TA/regen.  Wow what a duo 😝

[ImpousVileTerror]

No no no, it has to be Kinetics / Martial Arts.  Tsk!

To good health and things getting back to normal.  This has been such an off year.  My house decided to have the washer, dryer and fridge all die since New Year's Day.

 

....in have New Years seems a year ago.

Trick Regen Titans are getting a nerf as they were a bit hard to put down.

Could be the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, a.k.a. the "frequency illusion".

 

Kind of like missing on two attacks within a few seconds and wondering if there's something wrong with your accuracy.

❤️❤️❤️❤️ is all I have to say to HC team.

I'm actually excited about the prospect of Energy Melee getting un-nerfed.

 

In 2020 I'm actually excited about the possibility of a single animation being reverted to the original one in an old MMO from 2004 that was shut down in 2012. It sounds crazy when I read that out loud, but it's true.

In 2020, nothing makes sense anymore bud, just roll with it ❤️

O.o that explains the no cyberwear issue as well.

We're all still alive - real life has just been incredibly busy for many of us in recent months. Most of this is due to (or made signiciantly worse by) Coronavirus-related problems, and some of it just really bad timing. For the moment we're having to prioritise the small amount of free time we have available for the project, which means some things aren't getting much attention. The talks are still ongoing, and as that's the most important thing for the long-term goals that Homecoming has, it is the priority.

 

From a development standpoint there's several things which are in progress (some of which are nearly ready for testing), but right now we don't actually have the capacity to run live development, testing and iteration on those features (see the Enhancement changes being stuck in limbo for an example of this). Once that capacity returns we'll start to see stuff hitting the test servers again.

 

Whilst all of this is going on it's still a priority of ours to ensure the consistent and stable operation of the server. Our fantastic GM team has been critical in facilitatin this, so please be sure to thank them if you see them around 🙂 

 

Can we really update the game without nerfing regen?

Once things settle down, why not recruit more developers? I was looking at the future developer volunteer thread and there are some pretty skilled developers looking to help!

[ImpousVileTerror]

I think they may have done exactly that . . . I've noticed a few new accounts, and some old ones getting their flags changed recently.
