Social information

There is no combat in Paragon Chat.  All those calculations and effects were done by the Server, which we have no access to.  However, the PChat Client simulates almost everything that the City of Heroes Client could do.

So, we have to make our own fun.  The Hero Entertainment and Resource Committee (HERC) coordinates with other volunteer groups to bring in Live DJs (almost everyday!) from TheCapeRadio.com and ParagonDawn.com); present weekly Costume Contests in Atlas Park; Holiday Special Events (approximately once a quarter plus other holidays); and sponsor Player Missions (simulated COH missions). 

​

​

​

​

​

in addition to the daily DJs, we also are visited weekly by Pogoman and Mad Vyking who do Paragon Radio live once a week and collect them online as a podcast.

​

​

​

There is also an active Role Play community.  Check in Pocket D and Atlas Park between 5PM and Midnight eastern and you will probably run into them!  Or ask in the Paragon Chat channel and someone can direct you.

You'll find a lot of the social life of PChat in the Discord channel sponsored by The CapeRadio.com

There are commonly 100+ folks in Discord at night!

You will need to install the Discord app if you don't already have it and get an invite to the TheCapeRadio.com Discord. Once there, ask a green-dotted Admin or Staff user to allow you into the General channel!


WALL OF TEXT WITH QUICK SOCIAL INFO!

  • When are folks in game?

  • Most folks are on between 5PM and 11PM (Eastern Time)  

  • The most people weekly are in-game during live DJ shows (www.thecaperadio.com, www.paragondawn.com, and Save COH Radio [ https://www.facebook.com/savecohradio] ).  We have live DJs in-game three or four times a week. They normally are in Pocket D or in Atlas. https://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php?topic=12086.msg   Also others at random.

  • Check with folks in-game (or the Discord 'programming-notes' thread) to see when to expect them.
     

  • The very most people are in Paragon Chat during the [roughly] Quarterly Events. About once a quarter we have get-togethers (Events).  We get over 100 in-game visitors on those nights!
     

  • Where else can I find former City of Heroes players and our new non-COH friends?

  • CapeRadio Channel  (NEW! Discord Channel)

  • The best place now to see other COH folks is TheCapeRadio.com's Discord channel.  There are often 100+ folks on there at night! DISCORD channel has pretty much replaced the original IRC channel.  (See above for invite information!)
     

  • What about Travel and Costumes?

  • All the trams, Facemakers, Icons, tailors and doors work. Binds and macros work now. If you will look in the Powers button (above the power bar) you will find new travel powers. Drag them into your power bar. You have 10 costume slots with unlimited edits, so go nuts with your suits!

  • There are CCs about once a week here in Atlas. Costume Contests are generally Thursday evenings (barring holidays), 5:30 pm Pacific / 8:30 pm Eastern, in Atlas Park. Themes are posted on Facebook and the cohtitan Paragon Chat Activities thread.

  • Instant Zone Transport: New toons will have a grey icon in their Power Bar (it looks kind of like the TP button, like a guy and his shadow).  Click that for instant transport. If you have old toons, here's a macro to help you get around: In the Chat bar, type in /macro PCTA mapmenu  and then press ENTER. (That should create a new icon in your Power Bar.) Click the new button you just made. Cool, yes ?
     

  • The QuickChat.exe Mod

  • CodeWalker and his crew are constantly working to give us new features. There is an mod that adds instant travel, emotes, combat moves, costume changes, and access to a new Zone! You have to exit PChat and COH to install it.
    Takes about 30 seconds to install.  See Quickchat Mod on the Mods & Advanced tab in the top menu or 
    https://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php/topic,11188.0.html
     

  • Progress

  • If you have changed computers since COH went away, try Ultra mode!  Newer PCs can often run Ultra with no special set up.  The difference can be amazing!

  • As of  PChat Ver 1.09, we now have the beginnings of a power system! You can affect other players and the NPCs!
    Badges work now and some glowies work! 

  • Bases are in process, {testing version} PLAYER BASES ARE LIVE, starting with Version 1.1 of Paragon Chat !

    I'm crashpositron in chat and Forums. Feel free to call on me! I hope the information helps!
