Looting the Library
Oct. 29th, 2005 11:20 amSince there was no Conifur this week, we had Lazar's Shadake game instead. Java was absent, at work and/or getting drunk or something, but we were distracted enough by the new City of Heroes patch which Lazar and Murdock were playing around with while we waited for the pizza to come (Snowwy and I were looking at Neopets). After an hour or so, Sandy stomped out and growled at Lazar about why he hadn't called to bitch them out... so he did so, and although they claimed that the delivery was on schedule and that they'd told him it'd be an hour and a half until it would come (yeah, right), it arrived five minutes later, kind of cold as if it had been sitting on a shelf for an hour, forgotten until we called.
But we did eventually get around to playing.
( game summary )
Murdock had burned the 'majorpatch' file for me, and the fears about a broken patch proved not to be the case, at least in the united states. So I was able to actually get all patched and everything by 2am... then spent the next two hours running alllll around the city with Cinnamon looking for Warburg, which wasn't on the city map. It turns out that all the PvP areas were off the *yellow* (newbie) train line, and not the green line which I searched first. Warburg in particular is in King's Row, in case anyone else has trouble finding it. You can get to the rooftop helipad by clicking on the building's doors.
Once there, I ran a couple missions, not running into any PvP problems since it was the middle of the night, and got a temp power of (of all things) phase shift. The zone itself isn't really that interseting (it's yet another city zone), but the missions had new tilesets and enemies in them. Arachnos drones are *annoying*.
