    Really long hair

    [ QUOTE ]
    Post costume related ideas here.

    But I would love it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    LMAO! You know for as long as i have been posting on these forums and have posted in the costume sugestion thread I know I should have posted it there.

    I told a moderator and hopefull they can sticky this idea to that thread.

    Thanx for all the replies. I was thinking along the lines of a cape like animation but make it more 3d'ish.

    Really long hair

    Really long long hair, like down to the ankles- Hair longer than we currently have- make it an acutal back option unlockable at lvl 20- or 10- or whatever. Instead of capes players could have the option for really long hair. With a little bit of animation kinda like capes.

    Just throwing it out there......

    Thanx for reading.

    When I rolled my new Fire/Kin Controller, I decided to break from my usual magic to go for a Tech theme. I didn't want to use ALL of the Enforcer set, but the winged jawpiece, the arm parts, and the fore-armor was just too perfect. Everything else came from other sets that ended up fitting together a bit *better* than straight Enforcer, I think.

    Young Face 11, Rapturous hair, Cyclopian Face Detail 1, Enforcer Type 1 Face Detail 2, ExoProto Tight Chest, Enforcer Chest Detail, Tech 1 Shoulders, Enforcer Gloves, Tech Tactical Belt, Armored Pads Tight Legs, Justice Boots.

    I love the jester set but I have no characters to make use of it for it now...but I did use some of the new options to make a new costume for my Dual Blader Slashdancer.

    A mix of many options, including Dagger, Lock and Enforcer pieces.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That's a great costume, loved it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Have to agree- that is a great look!!

    The enforcer options are just so awesome. Mine is actually a magic/natural character(what you consider it depends on personal interpretation really), but that doesn't mean she can't have a snazzy tech looking costume, does it?



    In two colors! 'Cause I didn't know which to go with on my character yet.. I included both.

    COMMENCE PRAISING ME, or I shall be sad.

    MISS KITTY MADE A CAT GIRL??!!!!

    Yesterday afternoon, I helped complete Statesman's TF for the first time since it went live, and snagged a fantastic screenshot of LR's flyer while we were taking down his web towers.

    http://www.nyghtfall.com/coh/screens...8-16-20-02.jpg

    The last moment of the final battle with LR proved remarkably easy. When his HP was down to a sliver, a bunch of his minions appeared out of nowhere. I tossed out a Fulcrum Shift and the fight was over within seconds. The next thing I knew, a Mission Complete notice was staring me in the face.

    I also earned my Peerless, Diplomat, and Saved the World badges.

    THAT is what the game is suppose to look like?????

    /cries!!



    but, I guess that is okay...I'll still enjoy the game fighting crime with slide show girl.......
  7. Gotta agree for the great work!!

    5 stars!!
  8. Work_Ethic

    For Fire Lilly

    Ohhhhhhh

    That's really great looking!!
  9. Gratz to the Diaper Decimator!! I'll email this thread to Castle- I doubt Decimators are suppose to Solo AV's (even if the AV is Manticore....LOL). Hopefully he can crunch some numbers to see if the Decimators are working a intended.


    On a more serious note- does the Ms. want drawn pics of the Decimation or like photo shopped pics of the pics you provided of like a monsterous drooling baby slaughtering Manticore?

  10. Why didn't you use your own forum account????

    Anyway- any chance of getting the monsterous legs to go with the kilts- currently it is not an option as monsterous legs and Kilts are both under their own options.

    Thanx!!

    Hopefully with the free CoV, we'll see an actvity spike in bases and in turn base raids and the IoP trail will get some Dev loving.

    Already in the works, as Neutra relates in the transcript of Jester's interview with Posi and Lighthouse here.

    [ QUOTE ]
    One of the goals at the new studio is to hire a lot more Engineers to come in so that Bases can be worked on and fixed. Base Raiding, IoPs, everything is going to pushed to get working.

    EDIT: Fixed link.

    Wow......

    That's great- my fingers are crossed to hopefully see bases get some loving. Thanx for the links and update.

    My concerns are as so:

    NCSoft can sometimes be kinda harsh on its employees-- the recent layoffs for example. What happens when the new game that will make tons of money FER CERTAIN REALLY needs more devs? Will talent be siphoned away from NC^2? When the new game that will make tons of money FER CERTAIN REALLY turns out not to be quite as successful as the wined and dined had hoped, will said talent be laid off?

    Remember that salesmen are always the last to go, even when they make the bad decisions that lead to the rank and file being laid off. NCSoft has a MUCH worse reputation than Cryptic for this.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ok I know I am new here and this is my first post but I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. Particularly after what happened with the other NCSoft game I was playing: Auto Assault. That was a rather good game I admit to play and cool concept but apparently not cool enough for NCSoft to market it enough to get the subscribers it needed to keep it running so they claimed they had to shut it down this past August due to "Lack of Interest" after they had acquired it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hi!! Welcome to the forums!!

    Auto Assult had a really small subscriber base which unfortunatley lead to it's eventually closing of doors.

    How do I take the news of NCSoft taking over The City of francise.....

    It is the end of days.......................

    Hopefully it's the end of the BAD days as opposed to the GOOD days...but YMMV.

    Did anyone have an idea why the "Vet Reward time" and the "Actual Time" differ? I actually have been playing for about 18 months, but my "Vet Reward" time indicates 21 months. Since I only just got my 18 month badge I'm assuming they don't use the "Vet reward time" number, but I'm curious as to why there's a three month discrepancy.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    To my understanding of this, the free months you got with your game purchase count toward your vet. reward time, and not your actual game time. So, when you bought CoH, that gave one free month. When you bought CoV that gave you another month of free time and if you got the GvE edition that is the third month......

    I used to think the free months counted towards your vet time but reading your post it seems no....dunno why.

    But it has to do with the free months you got with your game purchases.

    Okay I've been playing for only a year and have never used a respec. In fact I trully don't understand the benefit of them. Do you get to just rechoose the powers in your set, or the power sets themselves. Do you get all the enhancements back, how about slots. All of theses questions have kept me from using my free respec and getting more of them until I understand them is absolutly meaningless to me.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Okay- you get to re-choose the powers in your primary and secondary power sets. You do not get to re-choose your power sets. First you pick your powers up to your current lvl- then you go to the next screen and slot your powers. Then it takes you to the last screen and there is a box on the bottom of the screen with all the enhancements that you had in your powers at the time you decided to respec. You then take your enhancements and put them where you want them to go. Any enhancements you do not use you can sell back at the cost you bought them- cost of IO's vary as do various enhancements.

    Powers first.
    Then choose where you want your slots to go.
    Then you place your enhancements.

    I hope this helps.

    Long time player, 7th time poster. Call me crazy, but when I think of Super Heroes/Villains, the last thing on my mind is what kind of 'weapon' they can wield. This is not D&D, WoW, etc. Why in Heaven would you devote a THIRD power set to SWORDS!?!? Very disappointing

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Because the players asked for it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The players asked for this ALOT!!!

    It was BaB's first, too!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It was and I gotta say, not impressed. But I grew up in the south and midwest. I've faced down hurricanes, tornades, thunderstorms, hail, sleet, blizzards, [u] TROLLS [u] , you name it I've been in it. Got myself into a load of trouble by venturing out into a hurricane with a trash can lid when I was a wee lad. I was trying to turn myself into an untethered kite in 100+ mph winds before my mother caught me.

    This earthquake just rounded off my exposure to natural disasters. All I need now is a volcanic eruption to complete the set.

    Okay, so sure it was surreal, but no more surreal than vibrant green funnel clouds or standing outside in the eye of a hurricane.

    Fix'd!!

    Top Notch!!

    I'm not sure he still plays either. I haven't seen him post lately.

    I'm hoping he's just playing the game. He never was a big poster but damn, his costumes frikken rule!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    LOL- I actually loved his avatars.......they were neat and well done.

    I can't remeber off hand if I ever saw an outfit done by him though. BUT I'm pretty sure they were kick a$$.

    Quoting myself because I would really like an answer to my question- can you re-do arcs that give you a reward at the end- like the wedding bad, war wolf whistle, bow and arrow from croatoa?? And re-get the reward? Not have them stack but get another warwolf whistle after yours has expired? Thanx much.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    We don't know.

    We do know that story arcs can be repeated. But nothing about renewing temp powers from those missions.

    It's difficult to go on precedent since in the game, some temp powers are available in limitless supply (every time you do the Chalmer's Ballista mission in CoV, you can pick up a jet pack if your old one has expired); others are limited in number (the number of times you can pick up stealth/phase from PvP zone patrol missions; or the number of times you can pick up Summon Amy from the Katie TF); others are only once (the temp power reward from completing a successful Mayhem/Safeguard mission).

    So... dunno.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Okay- I can live with that answer for now- Thanx Zombie_Man!!

    I'm surprised no has asked this yet- what about re-doing missions that reward a temp power to the mission holder- ya'know like a warwolf whistle?? Because that would totally freaking rock!! I'm more interested the bow you get from rescuing that guy in the Croatoa mission/arc. My magic scrapper loves it and it fits his "theme" perfectly I would most definetly do this mission repeatedly to keep on earning the bow.

    Thanx!!

    Flashback looks cool

    More powers cool

    Power Customization- completely unexpected and greatly greatly appreciated.

    Rare-er loot- meh (to me), but whatever, this makes other people/players happy so cooool

    Looking to be a great great issue.
