  1. how about this for PEATs:
    -Experimental Subject you are one of the experiments that has turned a good number of people in to the ghouls.... you might be a ghoul your self or you might be one of the successful experiments.
    special costume pieces for this EAT should be the cuffs, praetorian ghoul expeirment prisoner jump suit and experiment serial number marking (the cuffs, and jump suit would also unlock for other toons once you reached the proper lvl to unlock them), and would get there own special ghoul run (with super jump), the origin of course would be science, and for there innate ability (like the blasters defience etc etc) would be frenzy a bar would build from fighting much like a dominator and once activated would make your toon give off a screem that increases every ones attack rate and strength for a short time.

    -Seer: one of Mother Mayhem's seers
    special costume pieces would be the over the eye mask, neck option, shoulder option, chest option, belt option shown here

    eye option and belt option available to all characters once one toon has unlocked the EATs. special vertical standing flight. Once again science based origin and special innate ability psychic charge all team mates with in range X get a X% chance for X psionic damage added to each attack.


    the way I see it both of these would offer interesting stoylines aside from the normal praetorians just as the hero and villains had for EATs and like wise both of them would allow you to go loyalist or resistance.

    my point is this: Most other months that has a respec AND something else, so its not that they gave us a respec its that they gave us ONLY a respec for that month and by compairon to most other things in the list it lacks... I mean its free and its cool since NC soft is gracious for offering the vet rewards.... it just feels like they had all these cool ideas then on month 69 had a brain fart and couldn't think of any thing...

    and yes this is my opinion that is why I posted the topic
  3. let me be clear I have no issue with every one getting jetpacks in general but some special ones for the 69 month reward would be cool hell any besides just a respec, a respec and power, or a respec and special costume pieces, respec and extra costume slot, respec and more salvage space, HELL a respec and some merits... or how about this 69months a respec and 4 incarnate shards.....

    I dunno just for 69months just a silly respec seems a bit lackluster.

    they could have several jet packs other then the ones I listed available to all accounts then have some like the ones I listed be a vet reward... fact still remains the 69 month reward sucks. if any one else has suggestions to improve it I'd love to hear them.
  6. okay so I was just watching video on issue 20 and saw this

    which makes me think they might have added them so in that case if they have given us all the jet packs listed above then ignore my request if not then which ever ones they have not, and if that is not a jet pack back piece as a costume part shame on them for teasing.
  7. /signed

    and I'd like to add the bandaged face option that they had in CoV beta
  8. Okay, so in all fairness I am still a a bit aways away from this reward but I was looking though what I have to look forward too, and most of the rewards are at least decent if not down right awesome with the glaring exception of the 69 month reward:

    69 Month Milestone: Genuine

    really....Really... REALLY? That is ALL we get for 69 months? I mean come on... So, here is my plea to the CoX peeps to make this right.

    My Idea for the 69 month reward is........ JET PACKS!

    I think as the 69 month reward we should get jet packs as a back option (maybe only unlockable at lvl 20 with capes)

    I propose we get the follwing jet packs as a new back option:

    Jump Jet pack
    Gold Bricker's Jet Pack
    Long Bow Jet Pack
    Sky Raiders Jet Pack
    and the single engine leap pack you can get from doing the bank missions

    and it would be soooooo easy to program in (more or less), since we already have seen them on characters as parts of temp powers so why not make them part of the 69 month reward as costume pieces

    of course this should also be retro active to all people who have already achieved the 69 month reward... Come on Devs Do it you know you want to....PLEASE!
  9. okay so I am not complaining seeing as we get this stuff for free, but wish this top was available, both in general and definitely as part of the pack (or even just for those of us that maintained the account)


    also the thing says for maintaining the account through april 18th but then says we get the stuff on april 28th so is that a typo or do we truely get the stuff 10 days after technically earning it? again not a complaint just an inquiry.

    Nice ideas but with the current restrictions, may not happen.
    FYI it's the same reason they 'Generic' the Supes, Bats and other clones.
    all ya have to do is make it unique enough that it doesn't copy the TMs exactly its not like Guiver has a TM on electromagnatism :P
  11. I have an idea for 3, 2 of which are based around the same thing:
    1st electro magnetic Armor gather this would look like a glow on your character and bits of armor would suddenly magnitise to his body a bit at a time but rapidly culminating in a bright flash and wala you are in what ever costume you changed in to.

    2nd Armor explode your chracter balls in ward a bit then thrust there arms eagle and armoro bits explode off them revealing the new costume

    3rd Tear away costume your toon grabs there own costume with both hands and tears it open alla superman and reveals the new costume

    so buy the valk pack it has alot of cool pieces + the power to teleport you to any selected mission even in another zone

    but honestly most people playing have been playing for way more then 15 months

    okay I had mentioned the eagle head sooo okay some other interesting parts including feet? hmmm I may still get it I was frankly expecting more animals like some more reptiles (like snakes, various dinos, and turtles), maybe something like a rhino, Pig, other birds and/or rodents such a rabbits and rats/mice
  15. so I may have missed it looking through... but are the pieces in it just The 3 or 4 cats, the new wolf face, the bull and the eagle? or is there actually more?

    Not that there aren't other current in game issues that could have used a patch to fix. "Cough", "Cough" and all that.
    yea? but who plays Kheldians any way? :P

    I don't think the CoX art can be used...

    ...but you're already on the right track for bottle art.
    I doubt the CoX are could be used but thank you I may enter this

    there is nothing stopping COH from making alternate animations for weapon sets and most other power sets have either color tinting of some sort or 1 alternate animation compared to many weapon options

    lets take one of the most customizable powers Stone Melee:
    you have original unintable
    color tint
    Lava
    crystal

    now lets take dual blades:
    You have 27 blade choices if you have all that contnet packs 22 w/o any of them
    and 17 of those w/o having to earn them or buy a content pack...

    or lets take a less prolific weapon set Bows, you can get up to 9 bow options 7 of them to start.

    so I'd hardly call that balance.

    That said I realize not all weapons are equal (and I'd like to see some be a bit more equal especially since DB has got an overwhelming amount ) and that not all things are equal.

    But honestly I think its only fair for ex if you kill x amount of Rikti for a rikti blade but you also want those rocket boots that you should have to kill x amount more heck I'd even go so far as to say for ex you kill 200 to get your choice of the blade, gloves or boots then 1/2 that amount to get one of the 2 you didn't choose before (assuming you have a weapon) and then 1/4 the original amount for the 3rd piece and of course just the first 2 for those w/o weapons.

    but given that weapons have more options then most non weapon powers to start I think it only fair to even it out. but that is just me and I am not incharge


    either way (weather you have to reearn to get the extras or just get them all at once) these are still pieces I'd like to see.... I'd love to see more earnable costume choices in game (weapons inc)
  21. Dude boil down your 6 posts in to one post and a more cohesive argument. I am not (nor alot of other people I'd imagine) going to read 6 different rants. Also while I don't understand most things about programing, but I do know that when a gaming engine is built it has limits and at some point you reach those limits and cannot make certain things happen in a game. Further more they are not going to rewrite the engine of this game. If they are going to write a whole new engine they may as well make a whole new game.

    the point is to make it fair for those that don't have a wepon power if ya got both the first time around then it would still be unfair the weapon people would get 2 costume bonuses and the non weapon people 1
