  • I managed to get it downloaded after several tries, but now the Launcher seems to persist after the game starts (as a process running in the background not a visible launcher) in fact multiple (6 or more) processes called champions online.exe*32 are listed, and using memory and processor for each one. The Game runs but it…
  • Still no improvement I am however getting a different result on the trace route now 2 21 ms 20 ms 21 ms 10.29.37.1 3 23 ms 23 ms 23 ms G0-0-5-2.SCTNPA-LCR-22.verizon-gni.net [130.81.1 94.178] 4 * * * Request timed out. 5 * * * Request timed out. 6 * * * Request timed out. 7 * * * Request timed out. 8 * * * Request timed…
  • Yeah I get that sometimes too. not too often so far thank goodness
  • I suspect that was related to the Blood moon event. I started getting that in the second week of Blood moon when the crypts stage and Deathlords became active. I'll see how it goes now that blood moon is over
  • It's probably part of the same issue I've had since Aug 4th's update. If I keep trying it eventually goes through but then it might drop at th log in. If I get passed that it might crash at the black load screen. Next it might time time out at the character screen. Startung to play has a good chance of timing out and…
  • The issue is still the same of not worse as it was at the beginning of August
  • Still nothing? no improvement with any of the games I've dealt with if anything it's getting worse
  • OK, it's been almost a month since the problem started with the Aug. 4th update. I've run a trace route twice a week apart and got basically the same result both times. Here's the part that started the time outs. 4 * * * Request timed out. 5 * * * Request timed out. 6 * * * Request timed out. 7 27 ms 27 ms 27 ms…
  • I normally use the cryptic lancher directly, but i did check bot arc and steam to see if they helped when it started (they didn't). The problem can come up before Froced verify is an option. But I did try it when this came uo and again after you suggested it. It seems to help a little but after a few map transfers the…
  • Mostly used the direct link to the champions launcher but did try steam and Arc just in case when this started (didn't help so went back to the direct link to launcher). Forced verify was also tried when it first started, but problems can start before the force verify option is available. doesn't solve it but does seem to…
  • That has been turned off for years, LOL. I did try turning it on and back off again just in case, but it didn't help. My friend has started having the same issues on both Star Trek and Champions. We both have Verizon DSL, but other things run fine so unless the service is having issues with the Cryptic servers I don't know…
  • OK, I ran trace route but don't understand the results (I'm not that good with computers). Other then connecting to my service provider's server I mostly got "timed out" replies
  • Has an insect cocoon transform been suggested? Visually it would be similar to the snowball roll transform but more oval shaped and spinning like a top instead of rolling
  • The wiki is down. Does anyone know where I might find the Macro commands that could do this?
  • I thought it was Gargoyle, Flare and, Defender on the back of the wrap around cover for the first edition. I could be wrong though. I'm pretty sure I read who they were once, but I think it was in something that came out later, and it was a long time ago. (BBB was 4th edition I think)
  • True, it could have been a daisy wheel printer.
  • It looked more like a typewriter did it to me (they were still pretty common back then). I still have that edition somewhere. I think Defender is the only Champion left from it's cover.
  • I think it was only considered a bug since June 7(?) when they announced the premium pack would start. They mentioned removing the Free slot feature for level 40 characters in the announcement. Since the premium pack didn't go through it seems the free slots also continued, but probably weren't meant too. If they thought…

  • Not sure if it qualifies since it's mostly tails but... Lobster style head and tail Crab claw style hands Chest piece that looks like folded extra set of legs (doesn't move just looks like insect legs) Ant abdomen - tail Scorpion tail Praying Mantis -- hands (or bracers if easier)

  • Yes, it just started doing the same thing to me.
  • I started having this problem again just after the extended maintenance to first the lag and rubberbanding issues they did a couple weeks ago. (both of which seemed as bad or worse after it in my case anyway) It had been months since I had crash issues, but I've had 7 or 8 since then.
  • Would it be possible to get existing group agents for nemesis minions (like Viper, Argent, and Demon for example)? Would it be possible to add a variable to define your character as something other than human? Either filled in like a name or checked from a short list (Supernatural, alien, robot, Manimal, demon, elemental…
  • I'd like to see an Organic bow. (sort of like this http://gatec.deviantart.com/art/Organic-Bow-355037604?q=in%3Ascraps%20sort%3Atime%20gallery%3Agatec&qo=0 )
  • Yeah me too, CO and STO are not launching. Northeast Pa is my location. PenTeleData is my provider.
  • Yeah, but then why should it be "working as intended"? Powered armor toggles aren't that different from the advantage toggles other then you didn't pay advantage points to get them. Why would the one that gets it for free be better off then the one that had to pay advantage points to get it? I prefer to think it's an…
  • I'd agree, but the description says maintains or toggles. and the powered armor toggles work fine with it. It might be as intended but then they should mention it in the description of the affected powers. I would have bought the characters powers in a different order if I had been aware of it before hand.
  • I think I goofed catching up on online comics, instead of playing Champions when I got my power back last night after two days. Oh well, 20/20 hind sight. LOL
  • Yeah, I ran into this in the WCOC instance and the doomsday instance. WCOC was still completable, in spite of not finishing off the nemesis. (just needed to take out the mind control while fighting it. Doomsday; however, just kept running. I had the Nemesis over 10 million hit points before finally giving up. ( I was…
