I have been able to claim the rewards as per Trailturtle's instructions. Screenshot below shows what it looks like for me. Bear in mind that as I have claimed the rewards, they're not highlighted any more. http://www.bluestar.com.au/champions/level-rewards.jpg Title should be just under the reward with all the R1 mods and…

For all of mine. All Heroes Song Name: Yakety Sax (Boots Randolph) Theme Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnHmskwqCCQ Reason: It suits the whole tongue in cheek campiness of the game.
-
Same here. Is this the end of anniversary event, lockout from game? EDIT: I had a character in Canada, and was able to log in to him alright. Most of my other toons are in MC, so I guess that's having difficulties at the moment. On a side note, I applaud the correct spelling of "levelling" in the prize packs.
-
This is like selling a book of raffle tickets, then taking out a handful and saying "here are the entries", which leaves all those who have bought tickets (in this case levelled 1-40 within the time period) scatching their heads and asking "what about my entry?"
-
You and me both, Mr F. Maybe because we're both outside the USA, but I doubt it.
-
Simple database query: List characters level 40 at the time of the close of the competition. Sort by creation date. Collect names of characters created on or after 29th August. Shouldn't be too tricky to work this out, but as Trailturtle has pointed out, something's amiss with either their query or reporting. I don't envy…
-
Is this a list of all of the qualifying entries, Trailturtle? The reason I ask is that I can't seem to find my hero's name on the List, nor a few of the other ones mentioned in the announcement thread. (There's a thread where people were posting their times as they hit 40).
-
Just dinged 40 on my Gadgeteer named Noodles. Time = 1d 22h. Shouldn't have spent so much time on crafting and making adjustments to costumes. Incidentally, anyone know of a way of getting a sort of bib and brace overalls? I can't believe I just did this, by the way.
-
I think that Galeforce's suggestion is a good one. Someone asked about where the bugs were (as they hadn't logged in for a while). If you have a look in the Bug section of this forum, there's a whole pile of the little bugs that need squishing. They seem to have permeated all aspects of this game. For instance, I'm doing…

In the Hot off the Wire mission (where your Nemesis takes over the telly station and plants those mind control devices) I had a different problem to the OP. My Nemesis gained health instead of losing it - I must qualify this - I could damage him, as the screenshot attached confirms, but whenever he damaged me, that amount…

City of Heroes was released on the 28th of April 2004. That's 8 years. Hardly shallow logic. NCSoft management seem to have decided that it is time for CoX to die, as per your statement. I would not have thought I would have to explain a single line comment to you, Agentnx5. You're reading too much into it.
-
Best off level up to at least 25, make your Nemesis and try again. Those placeholder Nemeses are frustrating to say the least.
-
Just let it die naturally. Eight years is a pretty good run for an MMO.
-
Just a quick question, TT, once you've hit 40 on a character during this competition period, will you get some sort of notification that you now have an entry into the draw? Cheers!
-
I am also having great difficulty getting any real progress in 'crafting' levels. I took a character with a skill of 3 in Arms to the SG bank, and loaded up with lots of rank 1 mods and armouring pieces to fuse. After enough fusions to make 21 rank 2 mods / armour pieces, I had gone up a massive 8 skill points. Woot. Does…
-
I'm going to have a go, I'm not very fast at levelling though. I agree with Jonsills, it would be really boring to level through Alerts. As it happens , I've spent about 4 or 5 hours and only been in a grand total of three alerts, at level 18 now. And quite sleepy.
-
Is that where your avatar + signature pictures are from, Beldin?
-
I logged in just to see what the general situation was earlier today. It was about the same time of the day as normal for me. Normally in Milennium city there would be about 6 to 9 MC shards at varying levels of user population. Today, however, there were only three. I'm hoping I'm just being paranoid about the lower than…
-
A Shapeshifter AT. Start out small, shaping bits of your body into useful stuff like melee weapons, energy projectors, lasso etc. Work your way up to shifting to other body types for specific purposes: for example a statue / gargoyle for heavy hitting, a bear or lion for mauling, some sort of bird for bombing runs. Plants…
-
A couple of bugs we can deal with, man515drake, but a quick browse through the parent forum of this topic plus the actual bugs forum will see that there are many, many bugs this time around. Likening bug testing or the lack thereof to the Titanic may be prophetic though.
-
Say what? You were the person adding complaints in about Sneak in multiple topics and demanding a Retcon just a few days ago. Smackwell has had to moderate and remove a bunch of your posts in other topics too, and your signature images (the old red honeycomb one, and the current one) are the only ones that I'm using…

Mission : Breaking point (Nemesis multi-part mission) Draysha infused monster does not emerge from the control room to trigger last fight and complete the mission. Nemesis type = Munitions.
-
Click the Socrates icon on the mini-map. There should be an option to exit the current map.
-
Yeah, that's pretty much what I think at present. Quite happy to throw some cash at Cryptic / PWE every so often, but not when the stuff I want to do in-game is broken.
-
Since the patches on Friday and Saturday last week, Selphea. I'm hopeful the changes will be reverted again, but a lot of stuff broke in the last patch(es). Pretty much all of the activities I enjoy in Champs are dinged up a bit or flat out busted. This thread might have been dead but it certainly isn't now.
-
Loading screen is flashing up for extremely brief periods when clicking on other players. Something similar to this happened a few months back, going to look through dead threads now.
-
I tried this with both UNTIL and Primus currecies and I also received Level 40 greens. I'm wondering now if I try that on a lower level character will the item be the same level as they are, or level 40 again? Well spotted.
-
Caliga is a pretty decent tank. Lady Isis seems to have a good handle on keeping groups alive.
-
More broken stuff to fix, guys. Get to it, and then we can talk about buying some Zens.
-
Can confirm that Psimon was broken in a Soul Siphon alert. He would do his rage monster thing at 1/3 health, then jump back to 2/3 when it was time for him to die. It was most un-sportsman like behaviour. Canada seemed alright to me, it did patch up a lot of files on loading though. Seems like quite a few bugs snuck…
-
This annoys me too. In the registry there's a key that has your username, but that only has an effect on the Launcher, not the in-game window which you're referring to, Piratespice. I tried deleting the executable and seeing if a fresh version would pick up fresh settings but no luck. I'll play around with some more ideas…
-
In a Nemesis Dockside Dustup? Where you are sidekicked (hamstringed) down to L30 with approximately 50% damage output? Really? That's impressive.
-
Weren't they (Cryptic) talking about being able to gift your XP to a lower level alt? Although, that'd just mean you will eventually have more 40's lying around messing up the place...
-
Just returning to jorifice1's comment, why do you think the griefers would target Costume Competitions? They always seemed kind of innocuous to me, sorta like a fun community run thing that this game has over other MMO's.
-
Just a single sentence. I don't spam stuff in chat, just occasionally answer questions.
-
I got that the other day too, I was warning people in Zone about a scammer who was cleaning out SG banks, and some twit just said "and you're reported" and put me on ignore. Pfft, don't worry about idiots like that, Omega, just like real life there's strange people all over the place.
-
Yeah, /signed too. Haven't been burnt in the Q-store yet (touch wood), but this is one of those rare cases where an extra confirmation dialogue box is a good idea.
-
I'm not sure if you're still interested in following this up, Sundevil, but I had a similar thing happen to me not long after release. I posted an explanation as a GM ticket, and some time later, I logged that character on to find he was the SG leader. It may have been a week or more (this is a while ago). I'd suggest…
-
Yeah, it's what I reported when I started this topic. His Shadowfeast passive is off the charts. I don't know if that Trauma debuff that Xeiros mentioned on the first page would keep pace with his healing in a Radiation Rumble. Someone was reporting in Zone two days ago that he was healing 480,000 every few seconds. Now…
-
Did it last night. Nemesis = Munitions, Henchmen = Military Weapons Commando type.
-
If Cryptic / PWE came out and said "we're having no new features for August, we're spending the whole month on fixing bugs" I could totally get behind that. The way they rush out untested content and then frantically try to fix it the following day, ignoring the PTS testers on the way, means any new content is going to be…
-
This is not any harder than other alerts, once you are aware of the mechanic at the last fight. Having said that, I still believe that all of the alerts should be level gated at about 10 or 11 as a bare minimum, or 15 so all participants have their three super stats and a good range of abilities. Raising the level for…
-
Mine's a quickie: Are there any plans going forward to amalgamate the travel hubs so you're able to go from any one hub to any other? For example Lemuria to Canada, Vibora Bay to the Desert etc in one jump. Actually, a second question: Can you throw a bit of time at fixing the UI in relation to groups with more than 5…
