If they are not already at or over the new 100 character cap, which if memory serves, guyhumual is. All the saving in the world will never get them another character. Some of us with altitis cannot bring ourselves to delete characters, at least max level ones we've spent time on. Is it a handicap in situations like this?…
A "bug" that has been around since launch, touted as a feature and was the main reason I bought a LTS. Had I known this was in the works, I would not have purchased my LTS. I understand that you need to make changes and potentially make more money, it just seems far too late in the game to make a change of this magnitude.…
I'm still waiting for the rest of the patch notes. I mean, notes would imply plural and there is only one thing listed so either they forgot to post the rest of the notes or the title should read Patch Note 6/14/2018. Yeah, I've had a bad week and I probably shouldn't take it out on something this harmless, but I did. Not…
Short answer, no. Long answer, no, but maybe someday. Champions Online was originally developed to be played on the XBox360, but that deal fell thru before the game launched. Cryptic HAS ported not just Neverwinter to the XBone, but also Star Trek Online, which is also on the PS4. No idea if NW is on PS4 because I don't…
I'm not in a position to actually answer this, but I can speculate on why this and other changes are being considered for CO. I believe this may be a needed move to potentially port Champions to consoles. While CO has been "like this" more or less since launch, it's entirely possible that any attempt to port the current…
Fairly certain this is not something Cryptic thought up, but their bosses at Perfect World. And as employees, they do what the boss says, even if they may think it's a stupid move.
Absolutely not. Cryptic only has 3 games, CO, STO and NW. There will be no increase to the Cryptic dev team from the closure of those 2 games. Well, for me and many others, it will be a bad thing. I personally don't team much if at all in CO, outside of my friends and SG anyway. I hate alerts and as a result, I don't run…
Yeah, you may be right. I'm just so unsure exactly what is going on, I may have over reacted. I went back and edited out my original post. So, just to make sure I do understand exactly what will happen as things stand now... As a LTS, if I buy new slots once the ones I have run out, I can make FF's? No need to buy FF…
It means, sub until the game closes or you will lose access to your Gold FF characters. If they are FF's slots you bought, you know, the $50 ones, those should stay the same. If you are currently subbed, stay subbed. You will have to convert them to AT's if you want to play them if you don't. Unless they actually come up…
Okay, now I'm even more confused than before. I want to be 100% certain what happens to slots I currently have as an LTS? I can currently make either an FF or an AT and after the 7th, these empty slots I have I'll continue to be able to make either/or, correct? Also, since you're going to make even Gold/LTS buy FF slots…
According to one post from biffsmackwell, there is also going to be a character CAP put in place. We will be limited to 59 total characters. If you currently have more than that, you keep them but will not get any more.
I have to say, if I'd known this was the direction the game was going to go, I'd never have bought my LTS last year. As an altaholic, the fact I would get new character slots for every lvl 40 was the major selling point for the game. Yes, I can still buy slots (up to a limit), and I will since I'll still be getting the…
Since the problem hasn't been addressed yet, as far as I'm aware, I doubt they'll even bother at this point. The folks who didn't get the free slot likely make up such a small percentage of the player base that it would probably be a waste of what little resources they have to find the problem let alone get a solution out…
Franky, at this point I've given up any hope this will get fixed. CS closed my ticket down and when I opened another they closed it immediately and said to contact them through the first ticket. Which since it was closed, I can't do. Cryptic doesn't care so why should I? I was willing to give the game another shot but with…
I have heard that rumor, but that shouldn't be part of my issue as I've never purchased any slots. When I was subbed I just got new slots for hitting 40 and that was plenty. Granted, I'm no longer subbed but the free slot seems aimed at Silver players more than Gold anyway. Whatever the issue is, I hope it gets fixed soon.…
You sound like I feel. CS closed my ticket with no warning and without the issue being fixed, obviously. I'm going to give them until the end of the month to get it straightened out and if it isn't, I do believe I'll simply walk away from Champions for good this time. The game has been going for nearly 6 years now and I'm…
I'm in a similar boat as I can't seem to get the free character slot, though for likely different reasons. I'm a former gold player who is now silver with 12 characters. I actually "purchased" the free character slot but for whatever reason, I don't have an open character slot. It shows in the Zen store that I did indeed…
I didn't even get the e-mail announcement about this sale until this morning. As someone who still has at least some interest in the game but doesn't play very often, it would have been nice to have a little bit of advance notice about this sale. Then again, there didn't appear to be anything on sale I would have gotten…
So, let me see if I understand this correctly. There is a free vehicle and costume set available to everyone, Gold and Silver alike. Normally, vehicles are an account unlock and usable by every character on an account, as the vehicle can be 'traded' through the account bank. And now with this give away, it's character…
Not sure if I would count as a familiar face or not, but Pinn was my home. Wasn't a heavy teamer-upper but I did get around. Anyway, I can answer both of your questions, though I don't play CO much. Buying the freeform slot allows you to make a freeform character, whether you're subbed or not. And yes, you are correct, the…
