I had been playing CoH since the early days. No idea exactly when i started but i know it was before WoW launched. Over the years i got my girlfriend to play and we both bounced between it and other mmos at the time. CoH was great to use a way to take a break from the others. Pretty sure we played on Virtue server and we had way too many alts to remember.

Pictured in the link below is one of the few i have screen shots for. Ookami Kuro Arachnos Solider, i had her set up to be a mini master mind, summoning as many spider bots as i could. If i recall it wasn't as effective as a true MM but it was fun either way. I had plenty of other characters but cant recall what they were. I'm pretty sure my oldest character was a necro/dark mm that looked like a scarecrow. Think he named Lokiie, or maybe Lokye.

We didnt socialize much though so i doubt anyone would remember us anyway. We did a lot of newspaper mission groups to level but i cant recall really joining any SGs or anything.

Been thinking about the game alot lately do to work, and it's really hit me how much the game i never tried. Never played a dominator, so many zone stories i missed out on because we were always more focused on leveling for the sake of leveling. Really wish i could go back play through those. Tons of TF / SF i never tried. Especially ones tied to the super groups in some way.

So i do believe when CoT is out of beta and officially live, i plan to do everything i can... hopefully lol.

As a side note: A lil more about myself. I do embroidery for a living, selling patches on Etsy. I have a full stock of CoH archetype patches, which is why i mentioned about about my work reminding me of the game so often. Christmas this year has gotten me quite a few CoH orders so it's been fun and nostalgic. My forum avatar picture is my brute patch. Will probably always be my favorite patch.

I'm also working with MWM on their kickstarter embroidered patch add on. Definitely wasn't easy to do but i think it looks pretty neat. (Would post pictures, but I'm not sure if they want people to see those yet. If they don't mind i will edit this with some pictures to show the journey the patch design has taken over time. It's kinda gone full circle.)

Anyway looking forward to hearing more about the game and really looking forward to Issue 0.
