I remember a thread a LONG time ago about the CoX music... as I recall, some of it is is generic files in the public domain.

Great as always, however I feel I should mention that I'm worried that the flashing at one point might be a problem with people who have epilepsy...
I don't know if it will, but it made my eyes twitch and I don't have epilepsy. -
Quote:Fox Hunting was recently made illegal.Originally Posted by stever
Is fox hunting a sport that some people in England still participate in?
or Polo, or Cricket?
But my objection was mainly to the fact that I find the practice to be horrible and that I find it a shame that we're known for that abroad.

Tally-Ho: (England) An English TA/A defender in a classic fox-hunting outfit. I have no connection to the English in an ethnic sense but I saw I could make a snazzy fox-hunting outfit in the character creator. You can't see her and not think of England but she's pure concept
Anyway, I have quite a few characters that have diverse ethnic backgrounds, but I don't really have any that define themselves by their country. -

Quote:Over reaction much? If you don't play him, no one will report him, and even if you do get reported and generic'd... well, then you're just generic'd and you'll get a new name.
The thought finally hit me, That Character is going to get Genercised for Copy Right infirengment! So I deleted him instantly. -

Wouldn't there be concerns of tackiness if you started seeing Billboards advertising shampoo?
I think we mostly thought we'd be getting stuff aimed at geeks though when it started, comics, films, action figures/models, animé, geek conventions... instead we got a shoe.

You want to see in-game advertising?

I dunno if this is your department or not, but what's up will the in game advertising, has that been officially discontinued? -
Hey welcome, I hope you're wearing a flame retardant suit though

Quote:But it's only a cliché if it's trite and/or over used, not if it's just been used before or even used frequently.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
That's what I mean - if everything's been done before, then everything's a cliche/trope
To summarise... All clichés are tropes, but not all tropes are clichés. -
Quote:Other people are having fun and I don't understand why! They must be stupid!Originally Posted by Zyal
Guess they have the same mentality as the people that gotta say 'First' after a Dev/Mod post and the like. Never understood it, and to me annoying. I agree the battle cry spam during cut scenes are old.

Quote:In that case there is nothing that isn't a cliché then, since everything is trope.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
But isn't that still the same? Like a convention is a cliche, because if it's been used enough to become a convention, then it must have been oversued?

First thread I clicked on was one where members were posting pictures of their penises.

I go to all those zones still.... EXCEPT Boomtown, which you left out intentionally. Funny, that.

Quote:Indeed, and any "We can't/won't comment on it" talk is generally an admission of something, otherwise they'd just say "We currently have no plans".Originally Posted by Golden Girl
Becasue they may be seriously thinking about it, rather than just dreaming about it

This.

My guess is this. CoH2 is now in the extremely extremely early "So, let's actually talk about doing this" stage, so they've decided to register trademarks as part of that.
I highly doubt that any actual work is being done on the project, because it would be silly to wait so long to trademark the name.
Additionally, there's no guarantee that it will ever get off the ground.
Having said that, I certainly hope it does and I hope it's glorious! -

Toe the line. As in putting one's toes at the edge of a line and standing at attention. Not chaining a line that's had a transmission failure to a pickup truck and taking it to a repair shop or well-equipped garage.
