I plan on resubbing when Issue:14 hits and am looking for a different experience.

I first played in open beta and continued for about a year.  I have since resubbed a few times for a few months and then became bored and moved on.

This time I would like to try a SG that is truely active, not just one or two members on at a time.  I don't care if the group is overly large as long as there is consistantly players on to form groups.  Heck even a constant duo or trio that is fun would be fine.

I want to explore everything I have not seen.  Which includes many Task Forces and probalby a lot of story lines.

I have played all but Epic Archtypes... I have a few people in the mid to high 40s, but always got bogged down watching my XP bar move.  This is partly why I want a nice group so I can do things and stop watching my XP bar and waiting on that new skill.

I don't care what server it is.  I suppose a high pop one would be nice in the event the group breaks down.  But this is not a deal breaker.  If it happens to be a server I have characters on that is fine.  It however doesn't need to be as I am an alt aholic.

So can anyone point me in the right direction?  I may resub soon if Issue:14 is going to be released in the next month or so.  I plan on using the mission builder alot, as that is a main pull for my resub.  Unless I don't like how the final missions end up.

Unfortunately I do not have an active NCsoft account so I can't post there for help.

I hope you find what you are looking for.  I played for many, many years (4) and truely enjoyed my experience.  I bounced from SG to SG trying to find the right fit.  I found a few and they were great while they lasted.  The last sg I was in, was one of the more "organized" ones.  They had their rules and such, which at first turned me off, but after a while I found that this was one of my favorite sg's of all time.  Unfortunately, many members got into the Champions beta, and the concensus was that the sg would move to that game.  I will, of course, join them when Champions is released. 

Wow, I think I'm just rambling now.  Good luck in your search.  The right SG makes all the difference.

Heh, I expect I will try Champions Online and hope it has everything CoH has and more.  Once again Cryptic's open beta for CoH will gain them a customer, this time for Champions Online.

I hope there is an open beta for that one and I would like to give it a try first.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it as well.
