Standing Vigil in game

[dwturducken]

Something that was made way back when but never really made it in-game.

Oh, dear.  My son is a huge Brony; he would go nuts over that.

Union, Zukunft and the server formerly known as France were kinda dead already.  I'm not surprised you got nothing.  I've been on them (OK OK I am obsessive, i MUST reserve Vickie's name on EVERY server) when there were 10 people on the entire server.

I have characters on all of them. We should take over. (grin) It was much more interesting when they were localized German and French. I don't speak a word of either, levelling on those servers was interesting.

Black Pebble was spawning monsters in AP33. Saw Hami, Lusca, and Tyrant. We all got turned into Nemesis Horses briefly.

He gave himself away when he posted a message as "Rex Woofers" on the admin channel, /getglobalname revealed who it was. :D

It was fun, but kinda annoying, too. I was trying to listen to the radio interview TonyV was doing. Finally had to hide on top of a statue and turn the game audio off. (lol)

Oh ho... so Rex Woofers was Black Pebble?

A horse?  Why was that never implemented.  I woulda got that off the market as a travel power.

[Aggelakis]

It was going to be an enemy type, like the Jaeger or Warhulk. It was never implemented tho.

Union did have a decent population last time I checked. Just remember most of it is in different timezones.

Virtue had a 20-strong vigil overnight.  My favorite was a level 1 clearly made for the event. SaveTheCatGirls, in requisite catgirl costume. I'm trying to figure out uploading a picture, but I would imagine she'll be there for a bit.  :)

Also, the variations on "Ensign Redshirt," a group of characters dressed like red Wolf Spiders is now up to five members.

That would be me!  Glad you liked it :)

Put my main on Pinnacle's steps. I might switch it out for my CCCP hero, but we'll see.

It's worth noting that you can stand vigil on the main servers, and log in to Beta at the same time. I am the same character on both right now, and it is awesome (although slightly schizophrenic). So that's good for anyone who wants to save the city, and play in it too!

Felderberg!  I see you there!

Eight of us on Pinn right now, and that is a great idea.

It's that time again, see how your server's Vigils are doing.

Pinnacle - 5
Champion - 9
Union - 0
Infinity - 0
Victory - 0
Zukunft - 0
Guardian - 3
Justice - 5
Freedom -  5
Protector - 1 (another me)

Protector - 1 (another me)

Thought that was you.  Captain Patriot has been called to help Fusionette.  Sorry. :)

Still standing strong. AP334E!

Woohoo AP33! There are even more people here now  :)

[Ultraviolets]

Can't say enough how wonderful the devs are :) After being griefed for about two hours by a guy who was in a TF so he couldn't be logged off and had SB on auto, a Dev rescued us with several giant monsters. The invisible dev then awarded us with a dance party :)

Hmmmn. I created a couple of F2P accounts, and determined that my spare machine can handle 3 instances of the client easily. Figured I could park a couple of heroes standing vigil in the lower population servers so they get some attention, too. Problem I have is that a F2P account can't easily get access to AE or another way of getting into TF mode. Any suggestions?

What if you teamed with someone or your main character who was on a TF / AE / Ouro mission?

Someone suggested that in-game, and it works. I was afraid it would drop me out of AE mode when I logged off my main account, but it doesn't. So my next experiment is going to be to see if I can point more than one F2P account at the same email account.

I'm was standing vigil with my 2nd account on Triumph last night while logged in with my main account.  Nice to have a PC that can handle two instances of CoH at once.
