If you downloaded it previously it just applies the patch in all of 10 minutes and you go right in. My GF just ran it for me. :thumbs:

Is it 5 yet?
At home for lunch. You're right,.. 10 minutes to download patches. Went in and so far nothing much is happening. And it does seem very quiet. I can see people chatting about some of the new features. I guess there are portals you can destroy that do something. Thats all I know about that.
Anyway,.. I will be on later tonight. Hopefully I won't be too too late. Do you guys know of a resource I can check out that talks about the new features? My book is going to be quite outdated now. :sad:
45 minutes til quitin time. Gettin antsy. :sad:
yeah this sucks! I think my clock is broken!
So far nuthin to get too excited over. I'm back at work now btw. :sad:
Whatsa mattah Freddy. Ain't dere nuttin fun ta do in dere?Quote:

Downloading Omega drivers now. :D
Got the MSI RX9800 Pro, BTW.
The 9800 Pro 256 from ATI was severely backordered (5 months!) and althought the BFG 5700 OC looked might-y fine for the price, I stuck with my original idea.
Is that 256 referring to the onboard memory capacity in megabytes? Or is it referring to the memory performance in megabits?Quote:

In the price range I was going for, nVidia sucked.
The card is the RX9800PRO-TD128SP:

I think it has the 360 core, meaning I *could* flash it into thinking it was an XT model.
- 128MB DDR memory to generate the most detailed and immersive gaming experiences without sacrificing frame rates.
- 256-bit memory interface delivers bandwidth for real-time 3D visuals and barrier-free performance.
I also splurged on this:

I already had the n50, but this one had an extra row of buttins and better ergonomics.
The n50 will most likely end up on the kids' PC soon.
That WADS keyboard thingy looks really cool. I might have to get one of those.
I highly recommend that particular model. I know Delmer_1 has one too and likes it. The n50 model would be my second choice. I don't go for the entire keyboard replacement slabs by Logitech and others - pointless to have a second keyboard for gaming. Just having those extra keys available under my left hand is just perfect for me, the wife and the kids. We all love it.Quote:

Um, was it just me or was last night kind of a let down? I really expected to see dozens of baddies pouring out and things to get hot and heavy fast with heros tearing anything that moved up.
Well, hunting COT and some other stuff was fun too. Finding Peregrine Island was good too, sucks that I got killed in 1 hit... New features are nice. I like them. I hate how my smoke's had it's time shortened (so it seems).
In all fairness, it was two hits. :DQuote:

Inept and my wife had mucho fun fighting eyeballs in the PM in Steel Canyon - something we never encountered last night near the portals - so that was a bit sad, yes. Those things see thru stealth and invisibility also. They conned at lvl 16 to them, but one-shotted heroes easily.
She died 5 times. :p
BTW, she's looking to get into her first TF, if anyone is interested. Saturday morning would probably be best for her. Her dark melee/regen scrapper is now 19 - could be 20 by then. She's already a member of GoW.
As for me, I think I'll pop in tonight to take a look around, and Saturday evening (PST) sounds like an ideal time for the suits to come out to play. Whaddyall think?
In case I forgot to mention it, my 9800 Pro rocks.
What a change from the GF2 MX400 I previously had.

We have to submit that to the will of the sargeants - please vote whether or not to let Cassiopea into Phantoms of War. I will abstain from voting in this.
Trust me, I will not be offended and she will not know the outcome ofthis vote. ;)
BTW, I'll let her know about your offer for the TF, ILTU.
She's been logging more game time than I have these days. :p
I ended up getting home much later than I thought. Caltrans decided to rip up most of 101 so my drive home was a nightmare. But anywaaaaayyyy...
So uh,.. anyone wanna do a TV trial tonight? Takes around 3-4 hours, but we can all re-specify our powers if we get through it. I hear we should have plenty of ability to revive ourselves because death is very likely for this tough mission. So pack up pleny of inspirations before doing this.
But yeah,.. anyone down for this tonight?
Btw,.. technically (since I'm lvl 26 and we should keep a 4 lvl difference max for the team) we should be doing lvl 22-26 for a TV trial. So if we can get that number worked out,.. then maybe we could do a TF first (so everyone can get past that lvl 22 point) then do the TV trial. Unless you guys got a better way to do this? Otherwise I might have to find a 24-28 TV trial for RB to do.
I have no toons at level 24, so I can't do the respec trial. :(
Even with a TF first, I'm just a couple of bars from 22 now.
I will definitely get Stalemate into the Terra Volta Trial at one point though.
Have to.
Sign your wife up for an account on WD. Then she'll be eligible. Duh.

If the worlds of independant Adept and relationship Adept collide,.. it could cause catastrophe and cause Adept to crumble. An Adept divided can not stand!
(or something like that. Please refer to George Castanza for further information on how all these "worlds colliding" works.) :D
I remember that one. :pQuote:

Damnit! You all MUST get up to lvl 24 quickly. Put away your wife, your kids, your jobs, your lives. CoH must take full priority. Lots of coffee, crack if you have to,... play the game 24 hours a day. No sleep. YOU MUST HURRY!!! Wrbby wants to do the trials with PoW.Quote:

That and I'm really POed that they nerffed MY smoke when it was the smoke grenade that was a problem. WTF?
