  1. I am sure it is something that has been on beta already. I would love for it to be the flying carpet. I am skipping the Carni Set (I only play male toons), so I kinda hope it is not that.

    This is the conclusion I came to. I also like racking up a reward token every month.

    This! Have a great holiday and safe travel to all!
  4. Makes me a little sad. I am wondering if that means the Statesman TF will also change.

    I think it will happen. Synapse made it very clear that he wants] to give us the extra slots, and that he would continue working towards doing so. At this point it is just a matter of time.

    Edit: I'll back off on this, actually. I believe it to be true, but I can't find the redname post I swear I remember reading stating as much.
    I am pretty sure the IO sets in the market can be used w/o a license. This was covered in the beta where the Devs stated that players will always be able to continue to use things they have paid RL money for. It seems the super packs would fall under the same statement.

    Crits are unreliable.
    This is a bit off topic, but it has been bothering me since the Coffee Talk on Wens.

    All of the ATs seem to be getting improvements and tweaks to their inherent powers. Now, scrappers don't NEED a change, but crits are the most unreliable and basic of any of the inherent I can think of.

    I think it is time to make it more reliable, or at least more predictable.

    I have to assume that they sold a ton of the powersets, which means we should expect more pay for sets in the future.

    And while people in game think the set is powerful, they didn't seem to buy them because they'd read about that. They just wanted a new set or liked the look.

    Of course there may be no MM pet sets like this, just ones that can go on several AT's so lots of people will want them.
    If it means more power sets for the game, then I really don't care. I will buy the melee powers, and enjoy watching others use the non-melee powers.

    To me, more is better even if some of it is not free.
  9. There are so many ways to get the IOs I want now that I am not sure I would use these outside of purples, because I ALWAYS get crappy purple drops when I get them at all.

    As for any other IO in the game (outside of PvP IOs) I can use alignment merits, reward merits, the incarnate stores, or the paragon market. Most of those are cheaper and more time effective.

    Well, Perhaps I would also use it on AT IOs.
  10. I am glad to see that stalkers are being looked at, and the tweaks look good. I do however hope that they go over ALL of the AT inherent abilities at some point. I know Scrappers don't need any help, but it would be cool if their inherent could be spiced up a bit.

    Thanks for the information, Positron.

    What about costume parts for purchase for VIPs? Could you restrict the purchase of certain items in the Paragon Market to only be for VIPs, with a worst case scenario being Premiums subbing for a single month 3 years from now and then buying enough points to get all the VIP costume packs they missed?
    This is what I meant in my post, and what I assumed others meant. I just want the option to purchase the items outside of the packs. I am still willing to pay for them, I just don't want to have to gamble for them.

    If that is the case I will buy the packs any way. Chances are I would any way, but I still feel there should be a way to acquire these items outside of real money.

    Hey I have a better idea. Let's ignore the clipping so we can all get the CoT costume parts we REALLY wanted. It seems clipping is only an issue when it is used as an excuse to not give us costume items.
  14. I think VIPs should have a way to get the costume items outside of the super packs.

    Agreed.
  16. None of the mutant pack items have the glowing parts any longer. I paid for the glow, and I would like for the glow to be returned.

    A big Thanks!

    Yes! Thanks to all of those who secure the freedom I so enjoy. I think you are all taken for granted too often, and not treated with the respect you deserve for the service you give.
  18. The Bioluminescence options no longer glow! I reported this multiple times in beta and it still made it to live! Please stop breaking my costumes.
  19. Yeah, it sucks that I didn't win. Is what it is though, congratz to those who did.

    I wanted to thank those who have complimented the costume I did enter though. It takes some of the sting of not winning out of it. There were several others who I also thought would place and didn't.
  20. I have a thing for DC action figures. I have some DC direct stuff, but what I really like are the ones that Wal-mart and stores like it carry. I keep them in the package, and use them as wall decorations. They tend to run about $15 each, which is not so bad. I have a few that I had to purchase on the web, but mostly I find what I am looking for w/o resorting to have it shipped.

    There are 2 that continue to elude me. I want a Cassidy Cain Batgirl, and a Kyle Rayner GL. Both of which are around $50, and my wife looks at me funny when I bring them up. :/

    The kicker was when I went to price the figures (always good to know what you have) and discovered that I have several that are valued at over $75. Didn't see that coming at all.

    This one in particular really surprised me, in a good way.

  21. Fearnet.com did some coverage of Tucker and Dale it looks super funny!

You play City of Heroes because we are who we are, much in the same reason you would play Guild Wars, L2 or Aion or, in the future, Wildstar and Guild Wars 2: For their own unique experiences.
    I agree with all of this, and yet I still wish you guys had access to all of the dance emotes in guild wars.
  23. Wow, that is pretty bad. I guess I am saving more points. I am trying to be charitable here, but this is really bad.
