If you want to encourage player interaction, you could allow only one of the skills per character. But of course what would happen in that case is that people would just spread the skills to their other characters and move half made items around. One idea for that would be that certain items need ac...

There is no release date yet. It may come out 2020.

I think that's because of the latest PositiveGamer video. He is more popular now since he has a lot of CoH content, getting views from the Homecoming-crowd.

While we wait foir TrueSKY to be fixed, we're going to send out a newsletter showing some of the facets of the CCT, with a focus on creating heads and faces. Faces are tricky. For those of us who loved COH, we know that faces we not really distinctive. But SoH has a very powerful tool for creating ...

Things *are* moving with NCSoft apparently. Check here: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/7629-an-update-from-the-homecoming-team/ Ill quote it here: Hey folks, We know things have been really quiet from us lately, and we wanted to provide an update on what we've been up to. Homecoming and ...

I think the OP might have meant ice armor like in CoH. Personally i always thought that such armor graphics have been a flaw of CoH, because they do hide the whole costume (looking at you especially, granite armor).

I agree with healing badges. But support characters are not just about healing. It would be nice to have a "damage prevented" badge for those characters that do defense or resist buffs.

Btw., i just found this:

Tells you how to setup your own private single player CoH server in a virtual machine on your own computer. Game on.

Toggles have been great. And the whole toggle theme is touching another big thing CoH did right: A defender did not have to have great heals in order to be effective. He/she could simply have such efficient debuffs that healing was barely needed. I loved that part. I loved my storm defender. Put up ...

Me: “My god! What did you just do to that man?” Pyroman: “He was a purse snatcher, I simply effected an arrest.” Me: “You burned him until he passed out from the pain.” Pyroman: “Fear not citizen, soon he will be teleported to a holding cell and given all the care a hardened criminal such as him de...

When i was playing on the new private server the last few days, i suddenly realized one thing that CoH did very differently then any othe MMO that i played so far. The world, the characters, the baddies... they are all kinda cheesy and cartoonish and often very exaggerated. And that is exactly how i...

NCSoft is forced to act. The cat is out of the bag. The server sources can be downloaded, i actually saw where they are. Apparently you need to put some more work into the sources to establish a working server, but the basics are out. So NCSoft basically has 3 choices: 1) Play Whack a mole and try t...

The server situation is unclear at the moment, but it looks like the panic server shut down was not really needed. NCSoft didn't complain yet, it was just a troll. The CoH reddit has more details.

It's possible that a server will go back online pretty soon.

I am pretty split on this. On the one hand, this is obviously stealing of intellectual property. On the other hand, closing all servers and not allowing any emulations and not making a sequel was a dick move from NCSoft. The big question is: Why? The only thing they got out of it was bad rep. If the...

Another article popped up about this:

According to this, the full server source code might become available in a few weeks.
