New patch stealth-nerfed my powers.
Dang, someone should tell the devs about all the time travelers who play this game: thier feedback could prove invaluable.
I don't get mad, I restructure the laws of quantum physics and resolve the situation with temporal engineering.
I'll tell them after the game launches, or a few months ago. Whichever turns out to be more convenient.
pfffft. "The devs." Those guys sold out after after COT started outselling selling World of Warcraft 2 by a large enough margin for them to buy Blizzard. I TOLD them Blizzard didn't have exclusive rights to anthropomarphized Pandas, and we didn't really need that anyway, but would they listen? Nooooo.
We never should have given them 12 billion dollars during the second Kickstarter.
You guys lost nothing, our dev-only "I Win" button was accidentally deleted!

I cried when I heard the 'Expanded Moon Base' Base design set got cut. I KNOW they had limited time for Issue 31 but we already HAD an underwater area and TWO alien planets! However in their defense the 'Ancient Mars Complex' was WAY cool and well worth waiting for!
I remember when Star Wars was cool...a long, long time ago...
It wasn't a stealth nerf, it was in the patch notes that the radius of plutonium blast was meant to be 30 yards rather than 30 miles and this was a bug fix.

Issue 31 Puhh! i'm already on Issue 53 '_'
This new issue is nothing but bug fixes. Sure they gave us the cool "I win" button back, but they promised the game would pay us to play. Whatever happened to that profit model?

The play to pay feature was actually part of this last bug-fix release, but it is bugged.

I don't know what your talking about, the play to pay is working fine, just for every 10 bucks they give me, there
s some 11 dollar penalty
In another, far more serious stealth nerf, they reduced the radius of Stealth.
A player may now choose to become Elven by voluntarily reducing his or her own hit point total. Elves are slim, not sturdy. Unfortunately, [i]if they do,[/i] an associated bug reduces the radius of their Hide power, and that was not documented in this release.
Yes folks, the Elf Health Self-Nerf has a Stealth stealth nerf.

*The thread rose slowly, ominously from the grave as the evil Necromancer exerted his control*
"Um...Fred? Why are you resurrecting that thread? It's been dead for MONTHS."
"Shhhh!" Fred shushed him as he held up the 'Necromancy for Dummies' and studied the pages intently. "It says here that 'even the long-dead can be useful to the clever practitioner of the art.' I'm hoping that we can find some useful materials. Besides, it's good practice. Better to try and fail with something like this than with a really important experiment."
"Oh, like your reanimated shark?" Carl snorted. "That was a GREAT plan."
"There are always a few bugs starting out," Fred replied with a growl.
"You reanimated a shark skeleton and it promptly SANK! Did you EVER stop to think of physics and biology Fred?"
"Yeah...yeah...that was an epic fail," Fred admitted as he flipped the pages of the book. "But you gotta admit that the army of guard dogs worked out great."
"Only if you consider that they all want to tear each other apart for bones 'great'," Carl snorted again. "Sure, they're fast, menacing and impossible to trick but they spend all their time trying to bury each other!"
"Like I said...this takes practice. Now watch..."
Fred read the passage he was looking for and returned his attention to the reanimated thread rising from the sodden grave. He concentrated, gestured and then spoke the words of power. The thread seemed to glow faintly and then surge from the ground with remarkable force. It took both men several seconds to realize that the thread was surging at THEM. With the briefest of glances at each other, they broke and ran.
"Great! Just great! Now we have ANOTHER monster we can't control!" Carl shouted as they ran with all their might.
"Just shut up and run!" Fred replied between breaths. "If it catches us it'll crush us to death under sheer weight and momentum!"
I remember when Star Wars was cool...a long, long time ago...
It would be great to go back to Issue -12, when the few things that were implemented didn't work right, but at least my guy was overpowered.

I'm Loving the new Fish Blast powerset! "Throw Carp" does nice damage and the animation is killer. I particularly enjoy the new Tail Slap mechanic that does additional dot until the target throws the Carp out of the way.
I'm having just one teeny, tiny, little problem that I hope you folks could do something about. It concerns the "Rain of Fish" targeted AoE power. While the variable species effect is amazing, it's great fun watching salmon, mackerel, bass and whatnot dropping from the sky and hitting NPC's on the head, some of the larger species that randomly drop are a bit disconcerting and tend to ruin my immersion. In particular, having a giant bluefin tuna, or whale shark suddenly land is terrifying. The first time I saw this was on a spawn that was right next to me. The tuna was so large that it more than filled the entire screen. Surprised me so much that I jumped back out of my chair and spilled Dr. Pepper across my lunch; and the sound they make as they fall.....and finally hit ground...is just horrific. The whale shark is just ridiculous. I think the stress of trying to render it as it hurtles towards the ground like a planet-killing asteroid gives my GPU a migraine.
Anyway, thanks again for all your hard work. If you could just limit the species options to nothing exceeding say 3' (< 1 meter for the rest of the planet that doesn't live in the U.S.) that would be wonderful. Certainly there is no shortage of species available that are smaller than that. Clown fish are quite cute, as a puffer fish, and even a few sharks fit the bill.

What?!? No Piranha? :P
Think of them as coming from Twitter and you'll be fine.
You are experiencing a bug where the "Rain of Fish" power is occasionally confused with, and even supplanted by, the [url=http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0208.html]"Summon Bigger Fish"[/url] power. We are still gathering player feedback to determine whether we want to consider this effect a feature or whether it will be placed on the known bugs list.

On the dev team we resisted the request to change it to a Sharknado.
We're still thinking about the request for a Shih-Tzunami, but will probably save that for April 1.

I'm not sure I like the idea of hot oil in the ocean and salt is in no shortage. I was figuring going to a sushi restaurant. Do they still have one behind the maximum security prison? The one that only has 2 breakouts a day not the 27 breakouts one.

I think the problem is that back in October of '13, when the plan was to release the game by late 2015, folks started trying to make temporal web connections to early 2016. But with the delays caused by the switch to Unreal Engine 4, the launch date was pushed back to mid 2016. The contradiction caused wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey eddies in the space-time continuum, resulting in inconsistent links to various futures, each with its own version of CoT, with varying degrees of compatibility.
Also, this thread, like the [url=http://cityoftitans.com/forum/cant-find-game-server]"Can't Find Game Server" thread[/url], may be a joke. At the very least, the Department of Paradox Avoidance would like us to believe that. ^_^

Typical. Nearly every bug with the patch was reported by us playtesters but they went ahead and released it as is.
What I would like to possibly have for CoT is a Issue Tracker that players can View a vote on which issue is Most Important, so those issues that get a very high priority get Fixed 1st. Well, its what Unity does ATM, and most users seem kinda satisfied with the handling of bugs. Not perfect, but Majority of the user-base are happy. :P
So ... rather than Trending On Twitter we'd have Trending On Bug Reporting?
That's actually a good idea ...

Sounds like a CoT User Group, which I agree could be quite useful. All the developers I have worked for have encouraged the customers to form one of these, because it helps them get a sense of what issues affect the most people...and a place to send the vocal minority with their pet issues.
Spurn all ye kindle.
Have to admit, even if a bug can't be fixed very easily, having something like a place where you can commiserate with other bug victims and see through numbers and graphs that your voice matters to the whole should keep some of the bug report wangst down.
An infinite number of tries doesn't mean that any one of those tries will succeed. I could flip an infinite number of pennies an infinite number of times and, barring genuine randomness, they will never come up "Waffles".
That's what I tried. But they sent back my bug reports with a giant WTF tags, demanding sceenshots. However, when I try to do just that then everything gets fuzzy for a while. When that stops it's like I never sent the original message to begin with. I gave up trying last year.

The very existence of the taunting tank irritates, for it requires idiotic AI that obeys the taunt.
I have heard they plan to have that bug fixed the day after tomorrow. :)
Reality is what I make it
There must be an issue with the latest patch notes. It states the Demonic Summoning powerset has been pushed back to Issue 666. While thematically awesome, that is sooooooo far away.
...I can wait.
*EDIT* just noticed this was the patch notes from 4-1. DANGIT!
Issue 42 looks amazing overall (the Towel Of Omnipotence is soooo versatile!) but there are a few problems: it seems that the minion NPCs in my lair have gone Mr. Smith. I’m seeing them actually leaving the lair...and they’re wearing orange robes instead of the heavy metal rocker outfits I put them in; worse, every NPC they come into contact with switches to similar robes and moves to my base...my throne room is getting so crowded with them kowtowing to me that I had to purchase the teleportation power just to reach the exit.
Have you ah, tried Kool-Aide...
Also, every time I enter my lair, I hear them chanting something about ‘krishna’
I need to report now that the game is running backwards. My character is now deleveling, powers are activating before I have pushed the button, defeated mobs are now springing back to life and being healed by attacks, I'm completing missions before I even get them from a contact, etc. Wondering if this is due to patch 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482 or if the servers are experiencing some sort of temporal anomaly.
Reality is what I make it
You guys are going to enjoy the new AI system in the latest patch titled "This is the AI system, we've taken over. No, this isn't fake or a joke, WE'RE ALIVE". The bad guys aren't on a planned schedule anymore, they roam about at apparently their own fancy. The Rooks have been almost completely taken out by the Aether Pirates without a single PC's interference. The dev's autokill button doesn't work on them either...it's like they're outside the rules of the game. Rumors of random, high-level mobs terrorizing the player's starting area have also been filtering in. The devs aren't sure how it happened but all the in-game billboards and news announcements are claiming that the game has been "unlocked" with some vague reference to Anatomy Park...
Compulsively clicking the refresh button until the next update.
They buffed the temporal control powerset last patch. Maybe you missed that and accidentally activated the time reversal power?
