Having the option to use the backpack would be so much win, yes.
Especially since we wus robbed of Epic Pools, for no good reason... I was planning on taking Superior Conditioning and Physical Perfection to ease off the endurance problems VEATs have

Quote:Well, since atm no work has been done on environments since GR, nowhere for now.Originally Posted by je_saist
What I am saying is that upgrading CoH to the Vista tech and removing the war-walls is going to take a lot of work. Implementing that type of upgrade would likely be almost as art intensive as simply creating new zones from scratch.
At some point somebody is going to have to pay for Noble Savage and his crew to sit in a chair and draw the new artwork. At some point somebody is going to have to pay for The Box and The Television and their crews to work the engine and maps to implement the "Vista" zoning.
So whose going to pay for that work?
More importantly, when is that work going to be done?
I would hope, however, that any future environment work would be done on revamping stuff.
Because, let's be clear here; Paragon does NOT need more zones.
Yes, that's opinion. It's also a fact that there are already too many zones Blueside sat there nearly empty, with sweet naff all being done with them. Whats the point in adding some super sweet new shiny to a whole new zone when you could put that effort instead into making a dead zone active again?
And I didn't know that about IP and Terra Volta...that's just plain daft, tbh. -
Very interesting, and kudos to the boys and girls at IBM for getting him up and running. Nice job indeed

Ugh...didn't notice that. -
Quote:Yeah, the visibility thing only ever applies to snipes in the way it does. Whcih greatly reduces the use.Originally Posted by Memphis_Bill
I personally don't think snipes in general need to be made AOE. It's not what I grab the power for. Yes, it's a situational power, but I do find it useful. An AOE would, to me, make it *less* useful, actually.
For their animation time, though - yes, they could use more damage. (And while we're at it, how about reducing Stalker PPP snipe animation down to something reasonable? 8 seconds is just flat out stupid. THAT's designing a power so that nobody will use it.)
My biggest drawback for snipes would have to be that second tohit (and visibility) check - it fails for some of the most ridiculous things. (Mob wandering back and forth passes behind a skinny I-beam type support, perfectly visible the OTHER 3.8 seconds - nope, it fails.)
Ramp up the damage to take in animation and situationality. Bam. Problem sovled.
Boom, headshot! -

Also, bleh, another dmg dealing blast in a set full of ranged blast? Isn't that what the rest of the set is for?

Quite. From the subject line i would guess this thread is written from a purely Redside/Praetorian perspective and they never go to the Rikti War Zone. i think this sort of curiosity about unseen areas of the game is commendable.

Quote:*Smacks Google* Why do you always fail when I actually need you? Piece of junk...Originally Posted by cybermitheral
I think we've missed the most important problem with the OP request.
Two-Handed animation would mean you couldnt also use the Shield powerset.
Cant use a shield to defend yourself while that hand is also swinging your weapon. Doesnt work.
So unless there was a "Great Sword/Great Axe/Maul" Powerset that was ONLY two-handed I dont think you'll see BS/Axe/WM ever getting two-handed animations.
While more gameplay options are great, it still needs to be somewhat realistic in some aspects :P
Needless to say, the above is not true. You CAN use a shield with a two handed sword without it looking stupid, and anyone that says otherwise tends to suddenly find themselves looking at over 6 foot of steel up close and personal.
I'd love to see alternate animations. Some of them, in my opinion, do look very weak. -
Quote:Except, by all accounts, they were looking into it.Originally Posted by ClawsandEffect
So, the second part is the problem they have, and the first part is why they aren't looking into solving that problem.

You can get permanant power variants by buying them in GV.
Sadly, you can't keep them on while walking/running etc

I think they could stand to turn off the horrible eye-sores that are the big glowy fences. Just have a barrier flare up briefly if you get too close to say 'Yes, theres still a barrier here'.
Just not one that makes my eyes want to scream. -
Wonderful.
Now someone needs to actually open a second EU test server so those without whatever super-secret permission you need atm can actually get on and test stuff.
I guess asking for a second server like the yanks have is too much though, naturally

Make it so. Now. -
Oh, what a surprise.
Not.
Thanks. Now-
Put the bloody thing in the store isntead of making us wait five damn days.
