Hello, everyone. I am new to COH, and this community. I felt an introduction would be a good start.

 

My name is Archaeological_Hawk. I enjoy archaeology and old Hawkman comic books — both Silver Age and Golden Age. Other interests of mine include hockey, snowboarding, amateur radio, Cold War espionage, Syphon Filter, and history in general.

 

Anyhow, I look forward to making new friends here on the forums!

Welcome!

 

I've watched the entire 20 years of the original Time Team at least 4 times over now, and I follow the revival show on YouTube.  Does that count for archaeology? 😁  I'm a bit of a history nerd, too.

 

Since you're new and an archaeology buff, don't miss running the Faultline zone missions (levels 15 to 19, or visit the Pillars of Ice & Flame in the Oroboros zone if you've moved past those levels), beginning with Jim Tremblor (zone coordinates (-330, 0.5, -1211.5)).  He'll eventually introduce you to the contact Doc Delilah, the game's resident archaeologist/historian.  It's comic bookish at best, but she's fun.

Woah, that’s cool as heck. I’m going to look into those missions. Thank you!

Just a bit more info, Jim Temblor introduces you to Penelope Yin, who introduces you to Doc Delilah.  You have to start Yin before level 19 or you out-level her and won't get the introduction to Doc.  So best to start with Jim right at level 15 imo.

What about Syphon Filter interested you? I only played the first one and what I remember the most was the taser. If you know, you know. 😆

Welcome to THE CITY!

 

 

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

Good information to know. Thanks!

I played the original Syphon Filter back in 1999 or thereabouts, that was my introduction to the series. I played the other two games, SF2 and SF3, several years later. I have limited experience with The Omega Strain but enjoyed it. After discovering Dark Mirror and Logan’s Shadow, I purchased a PSP — I beat both of those games and sunk hours upon hours into multiplayer.

 

Nostalgia is my drug of choice, and the Syphon Filter series was an integral part of my childhood. What I like most about these games would be the espionage and fond memories from a simpler era.
