Podcast – City of Heroes Podcast

This episode is all about 3rd party add-ons. As discussed in the episode, these are not sanctioned by NCSoft and are against the terms of use, so they are definitely “use at your own risk”. They could get your account suspended or banned from the game. One note from last episode: We mention that the Winter event is ending on January 6 (today!) and that they will likely close it out dur...

We have more news about us, than the game this time around. The devs have been very quiet through the holidays. Since there was so little news, we went ahead and recorded a faction spotlight for this episode. We discuss: A new intro New equipment in the “studio” A new domain name i12 and i13 speculation Villian Epic Archetype (un)News Planning for the end of the Winter Event A tip to f...

This week we talk more about the Winter Event. We had intended to do Ouroboros coverage, but haven’t had much time to *ahem* research, and what little time we’ve had in game has been spent playing with features of the Winter event. In this episode we discuss: Candy cane salvage and pricing for various temp powers Ski Slope tips Ski Slope Bug Quickie Father Time mission tips 2007 Winter...

New news-laden episode for ya where we talk about: Dates for the winter event Winterlord’s Holiday Extravaganza PERC Costume Contest earlier this year Justice Radio ( not WOOT! Radio ) Patch Notes Double Prestige boost goof Players Choice Awards MMORPG.com MMOSite.com Official COH Forums . Please note, on the podcast I said “forums.coh.com” but it is actually “ boards.coh.c...

Here is part two of episode 5 – the Main Topic. We went back and forth about including the faction section, but the main topic was only 20 minutes and this faction was already recorded, so enjoy the Carnies In this main topic we discuss everything about Enhancements. The major types and differences between them, how you get the different types, how they all work, and tips for saving millions...

… and just news. After editing we came to a couple of conclusions. 1) the podcast is too long – wait, we already knew that – but despite attempts, its even longer than the last one, lol.  2) there is too much news right now to keep the Factions discussion as well as news and a main topic. In light of this, we are going to take a page out of The Command Line ‘s playbook and...

Kind of the opposite from the last two episodes – this one is very, very short. Actually we’re calling it Episode 4.5 as it completes the main topic “Powers” from last episode. There wasn’t any significant news this week either, which added to the shortness (wait, is that an oxymoron?) This ep we cover: A brief explanation of content that was cut One correction Target...

Another long episode this week. I actually pulled some content out so that we didn’t go past the hour mark. I will either release them into a short addendum episode this weekend, or make them the main topic next week. This week we discuss: The date has been announced for the Prestige Bump and Debt Wipe (December 10) Further information on receiving temp powers again with the new Ouroborus ti...

We have a whopper of an episode this week. Since its a couple of days late, hopefully all of the great news discussion, terminology, and chat system info will make up for that. This episode is almost an hour long. We will try to keep future episodes shorter, but there is a lot of great information packed in here. Topics discussed include: NCSoft buys CoH IP from Cryptic (along with most developers...

The main topic this episode is teaming strategies. Specifically, what the roles on a team are, and the typical way that these roles are used to most effectively take down the bad guys. Only two news clips this episode. First, Floyd “Castle” Grubb, the City of Heroes Development Team powers designer, narrates this trailer spotlighting the all-new power sets introduced in Issue 11: &#822...

Here is the first “real” episode. I think that I’ve solved the problem of the hot “S”es (at least in Episode 0 I heard lots of crackly bits over my FM transmitter in the car). The intro/outro are almost the same, but hopefully the news and main content will have better audio quality. This is longer than I had anticipated any episode being at just under 38 minutes, but...
