So close yet so far.....I feel your pain.

Overall the game is running well

AE exp was cut by half due to all the farming and crashes, not sure if they fixed it yet

Arena server is unavailable....thus blocking access to o a significant amount of badges

Ski lodge was open last I looked. But winter event is not on

It looks like you can queue up and run the summer blockbuster event but have not tried it. Yet.

The market....well some recipes are appearing and last I checked there is one of each of the pvp is that boosts defense by three for sale at each level....why? It doesn't take a lot of merits to get one from the vendor.  Overall there appears to be on be a lot of salvage selling and recipes are slowly loading up

Game is tricky when you are not at defense cap

Supergroup bases  you can register right away.
Prestige no longer needed
All base items unlocked
No restrictions on which items can go where,.

So for something quick, activate your base, get the biggest lot, and you entrance room can have a craft table fo invention, salvage and enhancement storage bins, put a small room next to o it with a teleporter with the pocket d beacon.

Now you can warp to pocket d, use their vault, merit vendor, tailor,  trainer, and type /auctionhouse to bring up the market, you cannot use that command in base or missions.

Stay in pocket for an hour to get fhe vip badge and pocket d teleport power.

Also only one hour in each pvp zone to get the badge for that zone.

Day job required time reduced.

Must be L14 to enter ouroborus portal, must be exposed to time travel to get the power.

Statesman is dead.

Taskforces all appear to be running.

I want to play on one of those servers, but dang, the fear of losing access to it again makes me stay away. I did run a private server, but way too boring by myself. Waiting to see what ncsoft does before I really get involved.

If nothing else, play on it to get familiarized with the game again.

If NCsoft does shut it down, you still have your own server.

On all three point...

Fear is the path of the dark side.

Private server?  Why not invite your mates to join..?

You'll be waiting a long time.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

Well now, I  have often stated that I wanted to play City of Heroes again before I croaked and I have!

I created old toons and new ones!

Did 2 SG's.

Starting marketing.

Ran The Hollows

I teamed on Pugs.

I did an Oroburos mission.

I am content and happy.

So if you are waiting until you can have fun in the game, STOP WAITING. Waiting for the perfect moment to play may not come. Why deny yourself the fun you could be having now? See you on the streets! My global is mwruger

I'd rather play and lose it again than not play and just keep missing it. I'm kind of assuming that the characters I'm leveling right now won't be the final iterations and that I may end up on other servers entirely, but that won't stop me from having fun right now. :)

After all, the code's out there. Can't stop the signal.

The thing about perfection is that it is unknowable but is around us all the time.

And that time is NOW.   Make your account number hich will let you have 1000 alts and start playing!

I've been running into the same problem. I literally had tears in my eyes when I logged in for the first time a few days ago.

I played city of heros for a bit shortly before the big shut down when it was free to play and loved everything about it.  When it shut i tried to migrate to dc universe online and champions online but it wasent the same.  When I heard details of the homecomeing server i was so there it aint funny.  Now I got heroes on the brain trying to come up with new heros and villans and the plots behind them for RP

Arenas are activated on all Homecoming shards now, so that has changed since a previous post stating that they weren't.
What was no more, is now reborn!
