Anyone here play it? It's an mmorpg.

Something my wife and I are truely addicted to. We already have 16 characters and a fantastic SG group...

For those of you who havn't played it...

It's an online game where you play with THOUSANDS of other people much like Everquest too...only it has to do with superheroes. You create your own hero from scratch, giving him various powers and of course a completely unique look...there is a 1% chance you will ever meet up with someone who looks like you.

Then you can do missions against groups of enemies alone or with a group of 8 people max...you can also join Supergroups where you can make good friends and allies to fight evil.

By far the best mmorpg out there today.

I did for a while, but I play Guild Wars now because I couldn't justify paying 15 bucks a month to play a couple hours a week.

A number of people played it in my guild last year. It lost interest though and it never became one of our "official" games. And I had a friend that played it. I just don't have the will, the time, or the patience to play MMO's anymore. After Everquest, Asheron's Call, Earth and Beyond, Planetside, SWG, Final Fantasy XI, and World of Warcraft I'm done with MMO's for good.

I would probably never play anything like that, but I admit it sounds cool. ^^

I started writing a story about people who lived in a superhero world, which was an online game (of sorts). :grin:

So I guess I like the idea.

Yeah that is pretty much the only thing I play on the PC anymore. That and console games.

Do you have a particular server you go on? I like TacticalGamer...but been playing ranked for the most part lately. DFRsquad is usually pretty good.

You already replied to my post in the BF2 thread.

I've said a couple times my clan has a server.

Doh! Dang man, where is my brain today?? huh? Tell me!!

Did you guys end up downgrading the server back to the pre-patch?
I havn't had any trouble with the patch..but I see quite a few servers have pushed back to pre-patch...

Yes because otherwise because of EA's stupid mistakes we would keep getting memory leaks and then it would crash every other game or so. Annoying as heck so yeah forgot to mention that we're back at version 1.0 for the time being. And since all the DICE guys are on vacation it will be awhile before that memory leak with hosting servers on 1.1 is fixed. :eyeroll:

Just got this game, dunno if any of you here are still into it, but you can usually find me on the Freedom server as Azier Trigonus.

Postby **Azier the Swordsman** » Fri Feb 03, 2006 1:08 pm

Nobody? That's a shame. It's really a rather fun game. :\

Random pic: See if you can identify the pun my 3rd char is based on.

Postby **ishy** » Sat Feb 11, 2006 8:01 pm

I'm on CoH on Pinnacle, and CoV on Infinity. I've pretty much played every MMORPG known. Still have my original EQ beta cd....

Hey Arizona, I'm on YJ too. What's your name on there?

Postby **Azier the Swordsman** » Sat Feb 11, 2006 10:26 pm

Currently, I'm replaying as Azier Trigonus on the Champion sever. I can also be caught on CoV as Razier Trigonus. (I alternate between the two.)

I just recently got this game, and I really love it. I've only got one character right now, Mynik Tracer, on the Liberty server, but I can only play during the weekends right now.

Plus, I've only got one account and me and my brother are sharing, so eventually I'll probably get my own account and I'll have to redo my chars.

Postby **Azier the Swordsman** » Mon Apr 24, 2006 7:56 pm

I had to cancel my account for the time as I needed to cut my bills, and have been generally too busy with other stuff to invest much time in it. But, I really miss it though. =(

Postby **mastersquirrel** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 11:09 am

Aw, that stinks Azier.

Anyone else still play this game? I was kinda hoping to meet some CAAers on there or something.

Eh...If I saw this earlyer...then yes....but, money stuff happended..and stuff.....
I played it when I was....different. I had dark characters, guys with hoods and claws, gothic girls with pail skin and deep black eyes and long swords.....

eeek....

Postby **Ranchluva** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 1:36 pm

I have the game....But I'm not alowed to play it for....like evry one says money problems..

I wanted to play so badly though

Postby **Linksquest** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 1:40 pm

Isn't there another game that goes hand in hand with this one... city of villains... or something?

I want to get this one... but right now I have no time nor money. T_T

Postby **Azier the Swordsman** » Thu Apr 27, 2006 7:42 pm

Well, I had a sudden urge to play through it again... so I rebooted it for now. I am Azier the Legendary on the Freedom server.

Postby **termyt** » Wed Jun 21, 2006 8:07 pm

I just started playing this game. It's my brother's really, but I will get my own account at some point.

You can catch me as Miyu Fumizuki on Liberty server.

Bonus points if you know where I got that name from.

Sweet! Liberty's the server with all my heroes on it. What level is Miyu anyway?

Postby **termyt** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 5:43 am

She's a level 6 Tanker. If I can get CoH running on my laptop (big if), I'll start my own account apart from my brothers and Iâ€™ll have to start over, though.

Postby **mastersquirrel** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 5:45 am

I had to do that too when I got my bro's account, but it's not too bad getting back where you were if you can team up with friends.

Anyway, it's nice to hear that there's another person playing now. I'll keep an eye out for ya.

Postby **termyt** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 7:21 am

Excellent. If you want to team with me, let me know who you are. I decline most offers. Pretty female tankers are in great demand and my results in teaming haven't been the best. So far, I've been abandoned twice in the sewers.

Although, the second time, three of the team stayed with me and we made it out just fine. I'm sure those who ran for it appreciated the fact that three of us stayed behind and finished off the bad guys for the XP and enhancements.

Postby **Sammy Boy** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 7:40 am

Like Raiden ... I can't see myself paying a subscription fee continually. So I play Guild Wars for that and other reasons.

Oh yeah! Forgot about that. Let's see, you're lvl 6... the best char to team with you is probably Eyara or Tae'lena. Oh, once we find each other, we should make eachother global friends so we don't have to search for each other.

Yeah, I've gotten on some pretty stupid teams before, they're a real nuisance. I remember being in one group where one of the guys just kept charging forward. He apparently thought using rest was stupid and liked to dive into frays. I was kinda glad when that team disbanded. I usually stick with teaming with my bro or someone from the SG now.
