riariHappy Year of the Ox!
Well, my weekend, when I wasn't out with friends, was definitely spent playing City of Heroes for the Double XP Weekend event. Somehow I managed to get that 80mb patch down part of the day and overnight on Thursday and so I spent a lot of time playing.
My characters level totals for this weekend:
-Warshade from 16 to 20
-Peacebringer from 18 to 20
-Blaster from 10 to 14
-Dominator from 22 to 23.5
My god was my connection giving me troubles. Anything and everything was flooding my connection and knocking me off. CoH crashed 3 times yesterday alone from being unable to process the dataflooding and had to be forcibly process stopped each time.
I was definitely horribly frustrated by a Longbow mission Villain-side where it was timed and a battle was occuring. Thanks. My connection just really, really likes NPC battles going on. </sarcasm> I almost took out that Longbow Ballista (which was the mission objective), but the timer ran out. Had him down to a 1/4 of health, inherent Domination was on and I was spamming Domination and Confuse and all my ice attacks. But wasn't to be. Too much of the mission timer was wasted by being repeated knocked offline, or load times and yeah. Sucked.
Definitely taking a break from CoH for a week. Now, to get my taxes done. I realized that I was waiting for a mailed report from my loan provider that was easy to get online. And only online unless I ask for a paper version. So that was one of those "duh" moments.
