The Hero-Con Costume Contest!

November 4th, 2009

It’s almost Halloween and you need to come up with a costume anyway, right? So why not make it CoH related? If you do, you can enter it in our Official Hero-Con ‘09 Costume Contest! We’re looking for heroes and villains specifically for this event – whether it’s your own character or a signature one from the game! Just keep it hero or villain themed and a character that is NOT trademarked outside of the City of Heroes game! Also – please leave any realistic-type weapons such as sharp wood, steel or anything else that could be seen as posing a danger to yourself or anyone else at home!

Badges, Temporary Costumes, and Other Rewards

November 3rd, 2009

The greater the challenge, the greater the reward! This year our Heroes and Villains receive new trick or treat prizes. Everyone who completes the various stages of the Deadly Apocalypse will receive a badge, and all of last year’s goodies will be back for players who missed them.

Deadly Apocalypse

November 3rd, 2009

As if our Heroes and Villains didn’t have enough foul-smelling fiends with rotting flesh to deal with during a zombie apocalypse, this year Heroes and Villains have to come up with new strategies to tackle a new terror. When Haunted Sigils appear, destroy them quickly and prepare for wave after wave of relentless foes. Only after all the foes have been defeated will you be rewarded with a ghoulish surprise. It’s a trick and treat!

The Deadly Apocalpse is upon us!

Brace yourself for the new apocalypse as our annual Halloween Event returns to City of Heroes®! Legions of Zombies, Werewolves, Jack-o-Lanterns, and other foul denizens are preparing to descend upon Paragon City™ and the Rogue Isles™. This year they’re bringing even more powerful allies! The new apocalypse is deadlier than ever as mysterious monstrosities are joining forces with the Eidolons, Shivans, and others. Paragon City and the Rogue Isles could be in terrible peril, and only the greatest Heroes and Villains can turn back the tide.

Compensation

November 2nd, 2009

ur client fix from October 1 unfortunately caused some trouble. Due to technical problems, several clients unexpectedly crashed. As a result, some players suffered character deaths and maybe even lost items and blessings. This is an unpleasant situation for both players and CipSoft, and we deeply regret that those problems occurred.

Missing Gold/Cash Shop item Issues

October 30th, 2009

Our technical team has been and are still working on upgradation of a few backend servers, the reason why the community is seeing Zero Gold. Our techies are working diligently to complete the upgrades. You should be able to see the original amount of gold that your account was/should possess once this upgradation is over. (It was supposed to be flick off a switch work but has turned out otherwise) We request the community to be patient as we fix this and we apologize for not notifying you in advance and any inconvenience this has caused.
