Nothing seems to work. GameSurge doesn't show up on the optional IRC networks.

Gah! Stop it! You're making me almost want to get CoH!

Oh, and do you guys plan to have people with jet-packs.

I found a way, Renegade. Just click <a href='http://www.gamesurge.net/chat/' target='_blank'>this link to Gamesurge.</a> Type "/join #nscoh" without quotes in the chat line. You can change your name in the lower right corner.
Not sure if this is what everyone else does, but it seems to work.

This is great fun. :-) SkinnY and myself teamed up for alittle
while and helped each other out. I helped him clear a warehouse
of no-good thugs and he helped me kill 10 weird zombie things.

On our way to the Station we saw a civilian called "Jesus".
Oh how we laughed :-D

I'll be uploading more screenshots to <a href='http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.taylor2/images/City%20of%20Heroes/' target='_blank'>http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.taylor2/...%20of%20Heroes/</a>.
Feel free to email them to me if you take any good one's,
and i'll upload them for you.

SkinnY · May 2004

cursed... i were about to go to bed (actully im in my bed with my laptop atm ) but now i have to get up and play CoH.... damn my needs.... hope to play with some of you guys aswell, it sure could be swell to make a huge TSA group and run around and solve missions <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Spooge · May 2004

I must say, I was a bit apprehensive about teaming with random players at first. But I have to tell you that a team of 7-8 battling groups that are 2-3 levels above you is just awsome! Attacks are flying everywhere, I'm trying to keep up with heals and bad guys start running in the other direction <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /> And now with hover I can stay well above the fight.

Man am I ever glad I bought this game. And the GF is already starting to hate it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

ANeM · May 2004

Heh.. the female one looks a fair bit like my TSA based character Natalja Seadjin.. Except the legs are different and I used armored type legs and body.. Tights just don't seem right for the TSA. I never saw the marine armor in NS as all that tight.. Even the clothing under the armor looks fairly loose..

SkinnY · May 2004

just wanted to say, that after a format ( due to virus... darn no good programs.. ) CoH is the only game i have <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /> hell... its the only thing i have exept for windows <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Talesin · May 2004

Well, TSA Commander has reached Level 10, and Squad Five is now open for anyone who has a character built on the build-list at the beginning of this thread. The old Squad 5 is going to be handed over to Geminosity as the 'casual' NS collective, as managing two supergroups is somewhat of a load to deal with.

So if you have a CoH account, make an alt off the builds above, and /tell me in the game (or in the #nscoh channel on GameSURGE) to be added into the roster.
Heck, for low-level alts, we can Mentor new (level 5 and under) characters to get them up to speed and fighting nasties alongside the rest of the crew. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

Hopefully we'll end up fighting L14 Hydras before too long, and get a REAL NS-styled battle going on. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

HA are recommended to be Tankers, Scrappers, or Blasters (Assault Rifle). LA Marines are recommended to be Blasters (AR again) or Controllers.
For other types (Defenders and so on) I'm working toward an NS-themed build for things like medical bots.

And before too long, I hope to get at least a Fade build for those who favor the Kharaa. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

(edit) And on the alt-name, please use the format 'TSA NameHere' if you haven't already made it, to add to the confomity-appearance of the group.(/edit)

lagger · May 2004

COH has a monthly fee correct?

Aldaris · May 2004

Yes CoH has a monthly fee of $15 with the first month free..

Geminosity · May 2004

Thankies Tal =D

Now I just need to sit and stare at the letterbox, the game's due for me today <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

Renegade · May 2004

Cool, count me in <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

*EDIT* Hey Talesin, what's your ingame name on CoH?

Necrotic · May 2004

I'm ringing FedEx today before I goto work to try and sort out my shipping woes so hopefully I'll be in within the week ¬_¬

Talesin · May 2004

As noted, I have a few... TSA Commander is probably going to be my most-active one, though I also go by Valkyrie VT-451, and have been trying out a Blaster character. Seriously, come to the IRC channel for discussion. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /> This was mostly just a place to hoard build lists for the 'formal' Squad Five, so we'd actually look uniform when we come crashing down the street, chasing a Hellion with a purse. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

DY357LX · May 2004

Count me in Talesin, i'll in be irc alot of the time.
(cough peon cough) I keep finding more enhancements
than I can carry <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

Talesin · May 2004

Aright, Dy. I think I already added you to my friends list in-game, but I haven't seen you on just yet.

I've been on alot with SkinnY. I'll be on later today
from 2pm (GMT). I'll be in irc before hand and PM you..

Talesin · May 2004

Which means 6am here in PDT, Dy. Which I was very, very asleep at.

Nemesis_Zero · May 2004

Since I don't have CoH, I have merely one question: Tal, why in heaven or hell do all the TSA marines have to wear the German coat of arms (that skinny eagle) on their chests?

Talesin · May 2004

Mostly because it's the closest thing to the TSA logo available, and there's no 'no emblem' selection for a supergroup.

Infinitum · May 2004

How about sans-logo....

Supernorn · May 2004

Now thats what I call sweet.

Got any shots of Squad 5 in action?

ThoraX · May 2004

I personally think that the LA would look better without the Bird logo on their chest. Is it alright If we join without the logo? I will definetly pick this game up and join you guys as soon as I get my computer back and I aquire some money.

I was playing this til 3am... whats that your time?

Talesin · May 2004

GMT -8, Dy. Which means 7pm.

Joining without the logo is fine, but when operating in Supergroup mode, as noted, there IS no 'no logo' option. Well.. unless you set the armor to green, and the logo to green as well. Then it'd just mostly blend away.

That_Annoying_Kid · May 2004

I know it's random, but a friend of mine has one of the top 15 coh characters
