City of Heroes Revival!!!
« on: July 17, 2010, 06:04:02 PM »
So Steam had Champions Online on sale a couple of weeks back and I grabbed it to see what the difference was between them.  Although CO has a bit more of a comic feel to it, it just came up short to CoH/CoV.

Well you guessed it... I re-activated my CoH and now I'm back in it again.  This is a call to arms for anyone who wants to just play casually again on this game.  I am really engrossed again and looking for friends to play with.  So if you are interested, even if you want to grab a trial and jump in with me, I'll be on when I can.

So what say you?  Are you able to brave the Paragon again?

I reactivated and am installing the client right now :-)

Not sure if I'll get on tonight or not (kinda busy, packing for Drumheller)

Remember to look for @Melbosa globally, as I could be on as any toon.

Oh he's doin' good :) I logged in to change my graphics settings. I may create a new toon just to get the feel for the game back.

I had some problems getting it to run in the correct resolution using Windows 7. Turns out it was my desktop zoom feature that was gumming it up.

Considered it for a minute when I saw this thread... but no, gotta decline, life is super-busy right now, won't go into details but I really gotta be moving forward on a lot of things.

Oh and BTW if you guys didn't already, don't forget to install the "map" hack that I remember finding and using and loving (it showed on your map the location of stores, etc... or did a later Official Update end up including that stuff?)

edit: omG has it REALLY been that long? 2004?
http://www.gamerscircle.net/2004/08/04/city-of-heroes-map-hack-updated/

I'm guessing the latest version of the Official installer does indeed have the locations visible on the map (instead of you having to memorize locations, which is what you had to do before the above-linked "hack" was released by some fans of the game)

I was tempted as well, however I do not have enough time to dedicate to it to make the monthly fee worth while...

I haven't even played the latest over lord DLC for Mass Effect 2 yet and I really want to.
