Cool! Maybe she'll run into Mordu and join the Legion of Super Villains!

So, I'm sure that we've all noticed the problems that have come up since I4 went live this week. Twice now I've been dumped from a server during a door mission. As Vee and I just noticed, when this happens, you lose any xp gained during the mission. Also, I noticed that the enhancements that I applied during the mission were un-applied after I logged back in. I think that we can all agree that doing missions and not getting anything for them, then having to do them again is not what we signed up for.
However, I think that there's a way to tell when a mission has gone dead. I noticed some time before we got dumped that the chat was no longer working. I think this is an early warning sign. Of course, once the chat stops working, there's only one way to let your teammates know. If you're on a mission and you notice that your chat messages aren't getting through, drop the team and wave. That'll let everyone else know that they need to bail out and restart the mission.
I have faith that Cryptic will fix these problems soon. In the meantime, we just need to look our for ourselves.
Thoughts?

Is anyone else having a "white screen" pop up during login? Ever since Issue 4 went live, I've had that happen .. sometimes I have to retry 3 or 4 times or more before COH goes live and lets me on.

THere's also a big memory leak that affects virtual memory (page filing). I've sent a couple bug reports about it, hopefully it'll be figured out within a couple weeks.
BTW, Prism soloed Terra sucessfully the other night.

There's a lot of discussion on the CoH forums about these problems. I was able to solve most of my crashing problem by turning off "Shadows" in the graphics portion of the Options menu thanks to a suggestion there. Before turning it off I was crashing constantly. Usually it was while changing zones or exiting a mission, but it could happen even just running down the street. Since turning off shadows, it hasn't crashed.
It does still begin to slow down and lag significantly as times goes on, which I imagine is the memory leak Lyle mentioned because my computer pops up a window telling me that virtual memory is too low. If I don't shut down and reboot, I eventually freeze up (yesterday I got stuck in mid jump coming out of the Hollows! ) and lose connection.
BTW Blue, lots of people are complaining about the same problem you are having also though I haven't experienced it.

Hey CoH Legionnaires, I won't be able to join you all tonight, so sorry! Scott is taking a few days off to make a long weekend for his 39th birthday, and I have promised him I won't play CoH again until Tuesday. This will also be good for a rest of the horribly painful case of carpel tunnel syndrome I have given myself by playing the game sometimes ten or more hours a day for the past one year this month. I have never been addicted to anything so badly in my life, except for sunflower seeds and.....
Congratulations to everyone for attaining higher levels for your Legionnaires. I wish I had your discipline as I still ping-pong around the servers. Be safe in Paragon City guys

We'll miss you Caroline but I hope you have fun on your long weekend! You and Scott really deserve a little bit of a break.
And Happy early B'Day to Scott!

Prism's still stuck on ideas for his 30 costume... except that maybe his 30 will be his 20 costume in black and his 40 will be an attempt at copying the decoys... that'll be useful if he tries PVP.
Ooooh, I'm so close to fighting Praetorians and visiting alternate dimensions!

Praetorians are kind of fun to fight ... Blue got to put the smackdown and sit on Tyrant's throne a few weeks ago. 8-)
Does anyone on Virtue have a fire controller that Prism could help level? Imps and phants vs Praetorians would be cool! 8-)

I must thank Prism, too. He helped me zip through 33 for Shadow Lad, and now he's 34 and can get three pets going at once!

I played with an illusion controller who's costume was remarkably similar to his PA. He looked very cool.
