  1. I recently got the CoV and CoH shirts from the NCsoft store and was thinking.... it would be cool to have some of my heroes on a tshirt... and that this could be an awsome opertunity for them I'd buy like 5 or 6 for different heroes.... could also do posters like wow did where you can put your character on it etc.

Well, it has a particular problem that's inherent in how costumes are handled, in that I can easily "reverse" the evolution by swapping to an earlier costume. Because of this, I try to design my costumes like outfits, that is to say as things that can be swapped into and out of either in real time or with minor limitations (such as having to go back home to change). Any costume which obsoletes another costume is best done as a REPLACEMENT for the earlier costume, rather than as an alternate one.

    Now, I guess I could just go the werewolf route and have her sprout ears and a tail at night or during a full moon or when she powers up or such, but... Well, it's just ears and a tail, so that's a pretty underwhelming transformation of that's what I'll be selling it as. And I honestly don't want to go full werewolf. I don't have a wolf head I can use with hair (or that doesn't look like my butt), I don't want to go with backwards legs and werewolves are... Kind of a bland concept, to be honest. Granted, girls that turn into werewolves are inherently more interesting, but I just don't think the concept is interesting enough to carry a werewolf through.
    just set up marcos if ya do it right you could have her switiching costumes while in mid fight :P

    I would say make her human looking to start and then make the lvl 20 costume a lil more feral and same at 30 etc and then basicly by the time you have all the costumes the story would be like as her power grew so did her fealness and like wise the angrier she gets the more feral she is or something

    and I technicly don't use prefab either but they do kinda make ya start with one of the 4 then you move the sliders so I tend to shoose the body type that closest resembles what I am wanting then adjust from there

    I will never be able to fight the vahziolk without laughing ever again!great stuff I wqas laughing so hard I couldn't breathe

    after reading those I figured I try a few of my own.

    Rikti Trainer: "What do you mean 'Invading other worlds isn't my thing'? It's what we do!"

    Lost Trainer: "No I am sorry we don't have a health plan, but If you do well you to may one day wear a TV on your head."

    Freaks Trainer: "Pfft.. a pierced tongue? Is that all you got?"
  5. I know I am a bit late but I have made a female Character like this my self at one time and I found the best look was making her as tall as possible using the "Heavy" build widening the hips as much as possible same with shoulders and lengthening the legs all the way.

    Pesonally I wish they would make a Huge Female form (like the Hug form that ehy have but more feminine) cause in the end I ditched my big power house female for not being enough of a power house... in look any way
  6. YES! Cathedral of Pain is coming back! I actually got to experiance this once before they took it off. I was in a Massive group (they let you make up an alliance back then of more then the stanrd 8 and it was meant to require that) and we where doing really well even got a shield down and where fighting for like an hour before we realized the thing was bugged... can't recall what was wrong but any way it was rather cool looking and fun (till we figured out it was bugged) so needless to say I am amped to see it coming back and I plan to play it and actually beat it! (assuming its no longer bugged LOL)

    FEEL THE PAIN PAIN IS GOOD!
  7. I dunno about the servers being empty per say, I will say I play on Justice and at time I do find it difficult finding teams for the things I want to do, or at times it does seem like no one is on though that is typicly late at night very early morning.

    I would say city of heroes is less populated then it once was and less populated then some other MMOs I have played over the last year (including Aion),but all in all not to bad as far as population.

    Adressing if going rogue will make that worse I don't think it will, simply for the reason of unlike CoV where the content was overwhelmingly heavy on the Villain end of things (and it made sense why it was) GR is giving Vets 2 new experiances to try, that being the preatorian bit and of course the ability to switch from good to evil or vise versa and back again and of course lets not for get the long awaited return of the Trial of Pain. For new players I believe with GR it will offer something most MMOs only touch on and that is conisquence for moral choice.

So I'm turning to you, our esteemed veterans, for some historical knowledge and, ideally, names plus screenshots. I've seen a few examples posted on other threads, but let's consolidate that information here if possible.

    Thanks for your help, and with a little luck, perhaps we can get some of these items back for you.
    I am sure they have been mentioned but here is a short list of the ones I recal I liked that I thought we where getting or disapeared after Beta of some sort.
    Shone as part og the midnighters issue but then not given to us-
    Dedealus's Helm
    Imperious' cape/should piece
    Where part of the CoV expansion durring beta but then miraculously not in the final product-
    Blindfold w/o chains or barbwire
    Bandaged "Darkman" like face
    back symbol option (I'd like to see Shoulders too)
  10. To spite the title I like them both quite a bit, but there has still been a bit of disappointment in the area of weapons, both the martial arts pack and Mutation pack have given sword and DB users new weapon options leaving Mace, Axe, shields, and claws out in the cold I mean making all the weapons with that mutation style in mind wouldn't have been all that much harder.
    and for the martial arts here are some design ideas:
    Axes:

    Club:

    Shiled:


    I think it would be nice if something could be developed for those that have bought the expansions to have these things added

    well the servers where ready for it yesterday hence the point of the give away contest for people win it for free and use before any one else

  14. If "Ifs" and "Buts" where candy and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas.
  15. What time tomorrow will the mutant booster go on sale?
  16. Okay so now that I have not managed to wiff on every entry what time tomarrow does it go on sale?
  17. after having read all this I am still not pleased that as some one who prepurchaced GR that people who pre order get the in game stuff but I guess its not that big of a deal :/
  18. I have been playing since COH was in beta, I preordered COH, and COV, and have all the content packs except the wedding one, have dealt with most of the bugs that seem to only appear when an issue goes from beta to live ((like the animation and button trigger **** ups with issue 15 or the super lag after issues 4 and 6))

    hows that for ya?

    that said I don't care if they pick me for beta I just wanted to present my case :P
  19. hmmm maybe they shouldn't advertise us getting pieces we can't get
  20. I used my tickets to get the roman pieces but I cannot seem to fin the helm shown on the far right of this pic [image]http://www.cityofheroes.com/images/issue12/costumes_i12_roman001_full.jpg[/image]
