Man, I haven't played COH in so long.

I had a level 20 elec/elec blaster named DeusExMachina (with cape)

also had a level 14 super strength tanker named Dark Guyver (gotta love super jump)

And then some minor characters from level 4-8 I think.

I've wanted to get back into it, but dunno if I really will. I kinda gave it up for World of Warcraft long ago...

He was told that this might even be eligible for the elusive "Bug Hunter" badge.

If you do, be sure to give us a holler, especially if you are on the Protector or Victory servers.

The game has changed a lot throughout the Issues released, so that might throw you for a spin if/when you come back to Paragon City, but the fight for good is worth it.

I was never into fantasy/medieval gaming myself, so even if WoW has the better reputation for gameplay, I still prefer CoH when it comes to character creation and style.

I can't wait for the space content...

Buenos dias, Senor Stalemate! When will you give in to the dark side and try CoV? Yes, they are the bad guys, but their costumes are way cooler!

**Ensabahnur** · April 28th, 2006, 04:51 PM

I tried City of Villains beta for a while, I really enjoyed it (even more than COH).

The classes that are able to summon pets/minions are really powerful in PVE, and the costume choices are simply awesome. I guess I do prefer being a villain overall.

**El_Squid** · May 1st, 2006, 03:03 PM

Yes, the Master Mind class is my favorite. I tend to solo with my toons, so having built-in henchmen is a very big plus for me. However, I can not let go of my heroes, for there is that part of me which always wanted to bash the baddies and save the civvies from the clutches of evil-doers.

I actually just started the 14 day trials on both COH and COV, hehe.

I got myself a sonic/energy blaster named Nitrosonic on Protector server. Reached level 14 with him tonight and picked up super speed, man is it fast! I figured i'd try it out since it was the only travel power I never took.

I'm hoping to reactivate my account sometime soon, it's good to be playing a bit again.

**El_Squid** · May 2nd, 2006, 09:54 AM

I have way too many toons, especially with both CoH and CoV. I just can't resist making more of them!

Any way, I have a Claw/Regen Scrapper (CoH) called Uber Savage and a Fire/Fire Brute (CoV) called Pyro Daemon on Protector. I only have two because Protector is being used primarily by my son Logan. My primary servers are Champion, mostly heroes, and Liberty, mostly villains.

At any rate, we'll see you around Paragon City.

Hey, I missed your comment there.

Short answer: "never".

The long answer can be found in our SG website somewhere...

Well, now that CoH and CoV have access to the same costume choices, the playing field has been leveled. No longer will the Villains enjoy the Dapper/Coutourier advantage. No longer will the Dark Side be able to lure the innocent into its foul grasp with really cool fashions and sparkley bling. Excelsior!

Bwa ha ha! Bring on the Ritki!

Three of the boys have started playing more actively and we have family Hero and Villain Super Groups. I am luring them away from WoW and Eve and into the CoH and CoV reality. On Champions we are the Aberdeen Pub Crawlers (Heroes) and on Liberty we are the Evil Cheese of Doom (Villains). See you all around!

Issue 13 is coming in the next few days (new powers: shields and pain domination), and the following issue will bring in user-created content creation (mission architect).

Originally these were intended to be brought all out together (with some existing power changes, more missions, etc.) but was split due to the testing involved.
