I was thoroughly impressed! When the beta comes, I'll be as happy as a child on christmas eve, I've missed that game since the alpha was ended.
For me, it was a CoH with everything I could ever dream of, and I had a lot of epic moments with the new True Sight and Cold Tech - it just works so good and feels so right, imo!
In my Quake 2/3 days my nick was Seb. Then, when I started playing games which had to have unique nicknames, OGame in this particular case, my nick was of course taken and I had to come up with a new one, unique enough to rarely be occupied. Since OGame is a space colonization game, it had to be something spacy and I was inspired by quasars, "the most luminous, powerful, and energetic objects known in the universe".
Then when I created my CoH account, my usual nick, Seb, was already taken again and I just used my new "fallback" nick.
