Thought I'd include a pic from the tutorial. I decided to create "Aeoriel', your typical half-naked angel alt. I gave him a flirty personality for shock value. This way while he's hanging out at the precinct houses he can give all those hot cops his "How YOU doin'?" look.

One more thing...I don't know who modded Superman for the game but I just gotta say daaaaaaaaang, Supes is definitely packing!!!

Re: World of Tanks

My pleasure :)

Here are some tips I picked up early on:

  • Movement and firing flags you to the enemy if they are within detection range.
  • Hiding in hedges helps you camouflage.
  • Softening the armour on an enemy tank is basically asking for someone to steal your kill, but you get more XP for the damage than the actual kill. :)
  • Whilst sitting still in a shrub and targeting an enemy armour, wait for the targeting circle to tighten up to ensure you have a better shot. Keep in mind, though, that they will see you if they are close enough.
  • Your firing arc is realistic. Trying to fire over short walls is OK, but only if your gun barrel is higher than the wall, firing down from a hill is OK only if your entire tank is angled downward; if you are level, your gun will not track down beyond a certain angle.
  • Your turret tracks much more slowly than your camera pans. Don't waste shells trying to shoot something until your gun has lined up.
  • Driving up hills is a slow, arduous process. Research and purchase stronger engines.
  • (If you play SPG) Your artillery will have better range if you park on an uphill incline, but you will lose the ability to fire on short range opponents.
  • Upgrading your suspension allows your tank to turn faster, upgrading your turret allows faster tracking as well as better view range
  • Upgrading your radio allows you to broadcast enemy locations further so that your teammates within range of your radio can see them on the map. (And SPGs to target them from further away).


I'm dead chuffed about this game, too, so I'll be happy answer any questions about it. ^.^

My handle there is the same as here. :) Look me up once you're in. ^.^ If we get enough pipplez we can form a platoon. :D

I got the game yesterday and played for several hours.
I like the graphics and it plays pretty smoothly. It's still suffering a bit from "new-game-itis" but it didn't crash while I was playing, and there wasn't much lag at all. I got DC'd a few times during loading screens. I didn't come across any major bugs. More importantly, I had a lot of fun.
Character creation isn't as full as CoH/CoV, (You just can't help comparing), but its way better then many other games. The tutorial is pretty thin, it gets you into the game, but you really need to figure out most of the game on your own. I like the voice overs from the iconic super heroes, You're constantly getting calls from Batman, or Wonder Woman, that sort of thing. The missions I've played so far are pretty average, kill 10 rats, defend some NPCs from 10 rats, fight your way past 10 rats and help some "real Superhero" kill a boss rat. But, as I said before, I had fun doing it.

My toon is only level 10, and I've only played hero side, so I can't really give a considered review yet, but it seems like a pretty solid game so far.

Anyone have plans to found a Stonewall League?

Things to remember for Roleplay

January 18 2011
Remember we will be using the SFRoleplay channel for all Roleplay event communications.

Stay in character - If you need to leave, request to do to Sickbay or your quarters.

If you become disruptive and not follow the event, you will be asked to go to Brig or Sickbay.

Remember, the Captain of the event is the leader. The leader will lead how the event will progress.
