Anyone still using a motherboard that has a floppy drive connector is likely deceased, I'd think. I'm 55 now. I haven't played on a system that old even when coh was in its infancy.

 

This is why my floppy drive is USB.

Thanks Bill!

 

I assume the Inf is the same as the XP multiplier, so with 3 accounts I'm making 1.5 as much as I would playing a single character. It may be split across 3 accounts but that's still a net 50% gain since I'm the same person. It does explain a few head-scratches I had, so thank you. 😁

 

That's if all toons are earning inf, and don't have it disabled in favor of double-xp, of course.

I'm 57 and bought CoH retail in 2004.  At the time, I ran the game on an Intel Pentium3 800Mhz (EB designated Coppermine at a whopping 133 FSB) with RAM measured in MB...128 IIRC and a 32MB videocard.  After a few months and new content/issue releases, it became a slideshow, with full teams on TFs.  That drove me to build my first self-assembled system, an Intel P4 3.2 Ghz Northwood (OC'd to 4.1 Ghz.  The Prescott version could OC a bit faster, but ran much hotter), with a "real" videocard (AMD X1950 256MB).  Both of those had floppy drives and I bet the Pentium 4 could run two instances of Homecoming, today. 🙂
