Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine City of Heroes: Your Chance to be a Legionnaire - Part 2

Gah. I can't get this one deleted... sorry...

I can certainly understand that, Seymour.

At this point, I've done virtually all the Hero arcs that currently exist at least once. I've played most of the powers that I really enjoy.

On the villain side, Space Cadet. is at leve 43 and has all the good powers from the MM set. There's still lag issus in COV for me, and quite frankly the preponderance of EBs/AVs bores me to tears. Yeah, Spacey can solo pretty much all the EBs there are, but it's not fun. It's a chore.

There's really no one I've played with in COV that still plays, and MMs aren't exactly great on pickup teams.

I still have a couple friends on COH and I don't really have any game to replace it with.

Three years into the game, I don't think the Devs are going to bring out much more that's new and exciting. I don't know how long the game will last, but I won't be surprised if it goes under after the Marvel and DC Games come out.

Issue 10 is supposed to be story driven, so hopefully it might bring some of the fun back.
I'll prolly hang around at least to see that.

I9 has gone live.

And former players can dust off their characters for free through Sunday. Should we get the gang together and do the new Statesman Task Force?

City of Heroes just reinstituted the 90 day inactive account can cause a name to go up for grabs again policy.

I'm surprised they didn't do that from the get-go.

How are you enjoying Issue 10? I haven't had time to play it yet since I got back, but the hubby's enjoying it.

It's not too bad, though it's probably better for someone who teams a lot more than I do. These days, I'm not able to play very much during the week.

The new Ritki outfits are neat, and they revised the Ritki Crash Site so there's new content. Unfortunately, even though you can pick up missions in there at 35+, you don't get very many before you hit a roadblock. I was only able to clear one contact and then they told me I'd have to come back at 40.

That toon is 36! Grr.

Is anyone else still playing or going to try the Marvel one when that comes out?

No plans for the Marvel one, but I do hop on occasionally. Issue 11 is coming soon (if it hasn't already launched), and there are a couple new power sets and customization options for weapons now.

I still pop on occasionally as well, though not very often. Didn't realize we were close to issue 11 already. I'll need to research the new powers & options!

As for the Marvel game, don't know much about it. Got any info to check out? I have to admit though, I'm not too inclined to shell out money for Marvel's pocket after all the trouble they caused to CoH.

Vee,

The funny thing is that Cryptic is actually developing the Marvel Game.


If they import the costume creator from COH I'll definitely give it a shot, I think. It'd be neat to fight the Skrulls and such.

Holy canoli! Gaming sure does make for strange bedfellows!

Maybe they'll get around to licensing the Marvel chars for use in CoH after all.

I don't think they will.

Microsoft is going to be producing the Marvel Game, and NC-Soft produces COH.


Which is sad, in some ways.

I'd kind of like to import some of my COH characters into the Marvel game.

(I'm not quite sure how to explain it, but Cryptic develops the games, but the other company produces it ... basically funds the game and its operation. At least I think that's the diffrence.)

There hasn't been any real news since September, 2006. The official name is Marvel Universe Online and you'll only be able to play it if you have Windows Vista (no XP) or X-Box 360.

That is the one downside to it. not so much the Vista as the X-Box 360 stuff. I'm afraid the controls are going to be pretty dumbed down to work with a console.

I just logged onto Andrew Nolan for the first time in ages, and he wasn't in a SG any longer. Did they finally catch us and delete our SG or did someone disband us?

Shadow Lad is still in, and there are several names I don't recognize. Some of them, including Val Amorr (don't remember who that is in real life), who at some point got promoted to highest rank, have been on in the last 10 days. Maybe he bumped you.

Those of you who still play COH, check this out:

They've got the new version of Defiance on test for blasters. I think this version may be borked so it's giving too much damage, but I am enjoying being able to use two of my attacks while held.

Double XP weekend! Anyone going to be on?

I'll be around

Haven't seen either of you guys on yet, but it's good to know that you still play.

I can't believe I missed Double XP weekend, I needed that so I could boost my lvl 28 troller up, really fast! Anyways, the first page really confused me while reading this, so I am going to assume that you guys run a Legion of Super-heroes sg, that's pretty cool. I would gladly join if their is any room, or if all the characters aren't taken by now.

Anyways, I just read some more of this thread, and not really a sg lol. But my main is.

Cozmic Girl, lvl 28; Earth/Rad controller. On freedom.

I have been there for 21 months, but I have a bad case of altism lol, but all my alts have the word Cozmic in it, I lack originality
