Unified forums with AVs and WWE
On a side note, I'll probably be trying to add a few more levels to my sonic/rad tonight if anybody has a 24ish villain they want to bring.

I replied to that thread. Also, I don't have anything in that range, but I'd still love to team with you. Looked for you all weekend but didn't see you.

We spent the weekend moving stuff out of storage, across Manhattan, up 5 flights of stairs, and into our current place. Our living room is currently 2/3rds full of boxes that still need to be unpacked, and we need to find a place for the wife's bike, too. (Why she brought a bike all the way from Texas to NYC is beyond me, but she did.)

Like most Thursday nights (our church night), we won't be on til after 10 or so, but yes, I DID make 32 last night. WOOT!

In that case, I'm going to see if I can get Tanselle closer to 45 and Hami raids (because you always need another scrapper at Hami raids, of course....) My goal is to hit 50 before I7 so I can focus on the 40-50 content in CoV then.
Drop me a global when you get online, and hopefully I'll have time to run a mission or two on the villain side. - Unknown said...

Well, it's just after 10, we just got home and have to eat. I'll try and catch you, but no promises.
- Palcioz said...
-
No worries -- have a good dinner, and I'll see you two tomorrow.

Maverick Thorn is almost 32 and I want my pet! You should be able to count on me, unless the wife has other plans for us tonight, which she doesn't as of right now...

April's Fool
I also found reference to a badge named "April's Fool", though this badge was named "badge_event_jester". Could there be an April Fools Day event planned?

Hmm...sounds probable. I'm guessing that the devs like to do events on the scale of the Valentine's thing, as it takes a minimal amount of new artwork (badges), lets them play with interesting mission structures, and doesn't really require any major changes to the game (like removing the 5th column or adding the Rularuu).
Of course, the ultimate irony would be if this badge didn't actually exist and was an April Fool's joke on the pigg hacker.

Ice Mistral SF: Wed 7:30pm EST
Level range is 35-40. Minimum participate is 4, but I'll try to fill out the team with coalition members if possible. This will probably only happen if we get 3-4 people together, so reply to this post so I know you're interested (and with a preferred time if 6pm EST on Thursday doesn't work for you)!
Update: Looks like we're now aiming for 7pm EST on Wednesday.
Update 2: Time change to 7:30 pm EST on Wednesday. So far, we have 5: Omicron Cypher, Grave Sorcerer, Chaos Force Mage, me, and King Venom will try to make it.
Update 3: Okay, OC and KV didn't show, and CFM wouldn't have been able to start until around 8:15ish. I'm not going to schedule this until I get better feedback about times -- post in the comments when would be good for you. I suggest Sunday at sometime -- I should be free all day. The SF is 6 doors and 1 hunt, so figure 2-3 hours.

Welcome to the blog, GS. :)

I'm sorry, I had an emergency come up. I probably won't be on until Friday night. This weekend would be fine for me. Saturday afternoon I have to change the oil in my car, but after that, I'll be gaming until the wee hours. Sunday, after 4 would be fine as well.

Looks like my wife and I are going to be painting our apartment this weekend, which means that the computer's going to need to move away from the internet connection. I'll hopefully be on in the evenings, but I better not commit to any specific time at this point.

Sounds like RL is a mess for most of us lol.

we have a reception desk? WTF! i didnt know we hade one! and also why do the Generator room look like a sewer, thats a dead giveaway to a raid. i think i should resdesign the base at least the Gen room!
- Palcioz said...

Every incarnation of our base has had a reception desk. I have no clue how you've missed them, seeing how they're right in front of the enterance. The generator has also been in a basement with that general look and feel since at least the end of November.
In regards to raids, (1) generators are too big to hide and easy to spot anyway, and (2) this is not a raidable base as it has no dimensional anchors or items of power.

Reviving Team Evil
As a first step, we're extending invitation privs to all slackers -- feel free to invite your friends or any other good players who are looking for a good group. We'll also be trying to move over any active players from Hidden Evil, and we're beginning to explore other opportunities to add to our membership.
We're still in the planning stages of how to increase our number of actives -- we'll be sure to keep everybody updated on what's going on, and feel free to contact one of us if you have any ideas on how to make the group more attractive for our current and prospective members.

Auto Assault
Basically, I'm wondering if the teaming situation is any better now -- convoying was pretty useless, and for me, teaming is the main reason to play MMOs....

I don't know if I'll get it. I haven't logged-in in months. I've been betatesting Space Cowboy (I'd rather fly than drive). Plus, I can't afford too many monthly fees. End of the month im moving to a larger (read, more expensive) apartment in my complex, so I may be out for a week as well.

From my time in the beta of Auto Assault (playing up into the 30s as a Mutant Archon -- yeah, it was past the level cap at the time, but whatever), I thought the game felt like it would make a really excellent single-player game but a really poor MMO. It felt mostly like Morrowind meets Mad Max -- fairly engrossing quests (with a difficult-to-manage organizational system), fairly easy combat (meaning either trivial or impossible -- basically no skill involved), and a lot of driving around the wasteland. As per the original post, though, that was before they did a massive revamp of the game, and I haven't seen it since then.
I wasn't really planning on picking it up, but I'd be willing to give it a go if you all say that it's worthwhile. I think I agree with Staggerlee when he says that CoV isn't really what I wanted, but I might just be getting a bit tired of the whole CoX thing in general. I'm paid up with Cryptic for another few months, though, so I'll be around regardless.
Currently, my gaming time is mostly divided between SW:Empire at War (I was one of those few fans of SW:Rebellion, and this is much better) and Puzzle Pirates, the latter purely because they have a micropayment system that lets you play essentially for free. I'm definitely searching for something new, though.... - said...

well this is gonna be funny to most of you. since i got bored with COV/H i have been playing Starcraft. (i know i like it that much!) For those of you who dont know what Starcraft is, is was an RPG that came out back in the mid-90's, its still a great game though, for any of who who played it. But if any of you can give me an overveiw of what AA is about maybe ill look into buying it.
Woo! Internet Access is Restored!
Silly old NYC building. Due to all the moving, I'm a bit behind in my research, but I should be back in-game shortly.
Hope the evildoing continues to go well!

Not sure what you're talking about Tech. The Patrol is still there. Did you quit the SG? I logged on a few of my characters and they are all still in it.

when i logged onto COH i saw that i was not on the SG. i know i didnt quit so maybe someone booted me off so im still tryin to get back on. but i just wanted to get that out there but maybe im too crazy.

VG Costume Contest (sticky until 3/1/06)
Here's how this will work: Entrants should create a costume and post front and back pictures to the blog by midnight PST on the evening of March 1st. Omicron Cypher and I will go through the entires and pick what we feel are the two best ones, judging by how well the costumes fit with the "Team Evil" theme and overall appearance. We will then open up a thread for member voting, and the costume that receives the most votes by March 15th (via replies on the blog) will become our official costume.
Only basic costume parts available to all characters are allowed, so no capes, auras, special helmets, togas, etc. You may post different versions for the three different types of characters (male/female/huge), or else your costume should be easily transferable to any of the three types. You may enter as many times as you like.
If you do not have posting priviledges yet, please send me (Palcioz) a real email address via in-game email, and I'll send you an invite.
Update: As we have received only a single entry, I'm postponing the choosing of a VG costume for the immediate future. We'll get this going again once the group is more active.
