<b>VICTORY</b> is the decided server for release!
Ok, a few things to keep note of:
- Victory was the original Name Reservation server, this means you could have the name you want on it, but could mean the server is overly packed and laggy and even full at times since people want their names.
- Pinnacle and Freedom were the original Playtesting servers, a ton of names will be taken, and alot of people will likely stick to this servers. Even moreso than above, these will likely be packed, and sometimes full. But they will always have tons of players to hook up with if needed.
- Team colours for the NS Supergroup are going to be some form of dark green + dark blue. This means your costume does not have to be this colour. What this means is once a supergroup has been formed, they can choose a primary and secondary colour set and when you join a group, you can choose to have your uniform colours change to the supergroup colours so you look alike. This is not mandatory at all, just an option!
- We need a name, please post replies of any ideas.
- Stop by #NSCoH
- VOTE!

ok, I am sorta leaning to guardian... not sure why (mention of it being the unoffical EU server)
I would like to stay away from prime(freedom) and pin b/c of the swamped factor (overloaded servers can realy suck)...
so yah, my vote goes on guardian (I guess)
As far as super groups go, I think something like "Natural Selectors" or something cheesy would be great. Its gotta be cheesy, its comic book style :)
<span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>YOU'RE SQUAD 5!</span>
At that point you keep your character(s) on the other servers, but can set up scheduled times for get-togethers on Infinity (edit: Or even better, Protector! It'd suit the theme) to go out and kill stuff as a brigade?
And just so you know, they changed the name reservation procedure at the last minute... you could have one name on each of the four servers. But if you had MORE than one character on a given server at shutdown-time, you received NO reserved name on that server for when it all comes back up on the 25th.
I also vote for Squad Five as the supergroup name. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> Natural Selectors sounds a little too cheesy, but S5 is taken directly from NS heritage. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Gotta wait till I get a new videocard and some $$.
And as for the supergroup name, squad 5 is perfect! "Can take out a onos with a saltshaker!"
And as for a video card... the minimum requirements are a GeForce 2. Of course, you probably will get crud for framerates, and won't get as many of the neat effects... Remind me to turn on 6x FSAA and 16x aniso, and toss up some screenies. I'm only running around with 4x and 4x, respectively, as I never bothered to change it.
Still pretty, but I see jaggies on a few things like power lines. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
but i want in.
where do i go to buy this game? it is out in theuk right? ill go look for it this afternoon..
Also, I would have slight reservations about the name "Squad five" though, as another villan group is called "The 5th colum" which is perhaps a little too close. How about just calling it by the full name of the TSA marines: "The Trans-system authority" and be done with it?
Virtue will be the unofficial RP server.
If you live in the US (and probably canada) You can just go down to your local computer super store and pick up a copy (or order it online)
for you EU People?
You gotta import. For somereason there is NO EU support (sucks dont it?)
good luck all <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
(oh and guardian = teh win <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
How about "The Selectors", "The Selected"?
I vote Pinnacle. I don't live on the same time frame as European.
and for the rest of the time, we just play there as normal.
Alius insists on playing on Victory, as it's the server where he has "The MedBot" reserved (no silly version numbers this time!). I'll probably go with alius no matter what you guys do, as we make an excellent team; it would be nice to be in Squad Five, though.
Superhero Armory Humpers!
That or a stereotypical obnoxious player quote. "COMM! HMG AND HA NOW YOU NEWB!"
Wrong. The "Do you play CS?" poll (look up in the stickied posts) is quite new.
Edit: Oh snap, I'm a nub. It's not there anymore.
But Yah, my cable is so good it probably wont matter <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
uh... 38 votes? I didn't realise so many of the NS boardies were playing CoH =o
there is no EU server
just that Guardian is East coast <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
