The latest video has been uploaded and still being processed...

Question 6 - Team-Killer

And now the truth is revealed about why Captain Catastrophe is known as a "team-killer"! The answer will shock you as well as the name of the "legendary online adventurer" that the Captain tries to emulate in his missions.

Comments are welcomed.

I don't know if my "modest contributions" would count here, but if so then you probably should also add...

And just added today (and still processing)...

Ask Captain Catastrophe - Part 6 (Instructional)

I originally thought this would be good for a veteran's reward, but then I thought about it and realized it would be better to just go ahead and make this a full-blown expansion pack.

SUPER BOOSTER PACK: SPORTS

Include costume pieces and sets for the following professional sports:
• Baseball (both player and catcher’s gear)
• Football (include shoulder pads and helmet)
• Old School Football (with melon helmet)
• Hockey (include Goalie pads and mask)
• Golf (golf shirt and cap with short gloves and slacks)
• Soccer (golf shirt with long sleeves, shorts, and sneakers)
• Lacrosse (soccer outfit with goalie pads)

Customizable weapons (war mace):
• Hockey Stick
• Lacrosse Stick
• Pool Cue
• Aluminum baseball bat (wooden bat already exists)

Emotes:
• Ref whistle (with sound)
• Touchdown dance
• Touchdown spike
• Ref: “Yer OUT”
• Ref: “Safe!”
• Ref: “GOAL!”
• Golf clap
• Baseball pitch

Base Items:
• Trophy Case
• Trophy Football Jersey (wall item)
• Trophy Baseball Jersey (wall item)
• Base Pennant (wall item)
• Football helmet
• Football goal post
• Basketball Backboard and hoop (wall item)
• Soccer/Lacrosse goal and net
• Billiard table
• Pool cues (wall item)

Misc. Item:
• Baseball weapon (ranged weapon similar to rock or snowball, negligible damage)
• Sports Juice (when active will provide maximum endurance for 2 minutes - recharge in 30 minutes)

I don't know if anyone posted something similar, but this is what I came up with. Any thoughts?

[ QUOTE ]
It may not be decorative. But I'd like to see NPC's in my VG's Base. You know, like tech's to work on the Arachnos Flyer, a janitor to wander around the base cleaning randomly, or medical personnel in the medbay. After all, what villain is actually going to do these things.

[/ QUOTE ]

I actually suggested it a while ago...

Here are the full details.

[ QUOTE ]
I want to add this website:

http://www.techinteriors.com/

The ideas here for control rooms and command centers is just Jaw dropping. I hope the devs can look into adding many items that look like this. And for players, I hope I just gave you many new ideas too!


[/ QUOTE ]

I second the motion.

[ QUOTE ]
Not sure if any of these have been mentioned. But I would like to see:

-Customizable History Plagues (could tell history of SG or whatever)
- Windows (basically just pics that look like outside, space, underwater, skyline, etc.)
- Statues
- Dogs playin poker painting (still makes me laugh)

[/ QUOTE ]

The history plaques and the dogs playing poker painting could be done through Splasher.

Here's an example.

But I agree with you on the windows and statues... as well as my own growing list which I will post in a little while.

[ QUOTE ]

On a sidenote, I would like the base bug addressed though, its really freaking out a lot of people.


[/ QUOTE ]

And since there is no way to reply to the base announcements, I have to borrow MonkeyB's post to put in my two cents to the devs...

PLEASE have the base problem fixed as soon as possible!

Here's one...

Wayne Industries collapses - Batman doing Infomercials

[ QUOTE ]
Can we petition the Devs to include these in the game manuals? Maybe have Captain C as the first contact in the tutorial?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm sure the Captain would get a kick out of that.

[ QUOTE ]
Hey wait, these are still going! I haven't been reading the topic because I just figured you were all still talking about the first one!

Looks like they are still going good but watch the timing. In the 2nd video, I was half done reading Captain C's chat about fillers when suddenly he starts yelling! Remember, some of us folks in more relaxed parts of the world take things slloooowly. (Especially folks who take their nickname from a critter that sleeps about 23 hours a day. )

[/ QUOTE ]

Thanks Zloth. Yes, timing is something that I've been trying to tweak and balance out. (It doesn't help that I'm also a speed-reader.) Hopefully I should have the right balance by now (or as close to it as possible).

[ QUOTE ]
it seems to me ,that the time has come to replace the current engine, more and more it is holding us back from getting what we want,while a great job has been done retro-fitting upgrades, maybe the time has come to start over,

[/ QUOTE ]

The problem with that idea is that replacing the engine and starting from scratch (CoH2) will force current users to upgrade their computers if they want to keep playing.

I know this is sacrilege to tech-heads, but not everyone upgrades their computers to the latest-greatest toy on a regular basis. Some people can't afford to, and I really don't see the devs thinking of the lower-end users when they start writing code.

Then there's the hassle of trying to transfer the current information to the new engine. Do you really want to force longtime players to scrap all their 50's and start from scratch? That's the kind of dilemma these guys have to deal with.

I don't mind the idea of doing a new engine, but there's a lot more involved with it.

HOLEEEEEE....

I'd get it just for the costume change, which has been LONG overdue!

On the heels of video #4, I've come up with my fifth modest contribution...

Issue #5 - City Hall (Part 1)

Enjoy, comment, etc...

Whilest I was waiting for i14 to come about, I cranked out yet another video.

Issue #4 - More Simple Questions

This time the good captain answers some more questions about Paragon City itself.

[ QUOTE ]
These are great!

[/ QUOTE ]

Thanks!

[ QUOTE ]
Getting better all the time.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thank you!

The THIRD video is now up on YouTube.

This one answers the question of what the Captain did to get stuck with community service.

It's cute, and I put more emphasis on the comic book look on this than in previous videos.

If you like, please sound off in the comments.

[ QUOTE ]
ParagonWiki is your friend!

[/ QUOTE ]

ParagonWiki is more your friend than search ever could be!

My RW work is currently tied up with another Internet radio station but would you be open to some modest "City of" themed contributions? (aka mock commercials)?

Great work! Certainly makes my own modest contributions pale in comparison.

[ QUOTE ]
you're being too modest. Another fine bit of work. I like the use of the stills instead of vid for this. It has sort of the right feel. Waiting for number 3.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thanks! Yeah, the comic book look sort of fits here.

BTW, some chowder-head just posted a rather condescending comment on the video, so if you like what you see, please drop a quick line to prove that he's full of it.

OMG! Well obviously the Rikti are running on old maps.

Maybe that's what we need to do... we just need to make the war walls solid right where the Rikti normally enter and then, BOOM, no more bomb drops. Then we can focus on the troopers.

Good video!

Okay, video number two is up. I was working on this one last night while reading the positive feedback from the folks here.

Question #2 - Teams and Fills

Not AS funny as the first one, but it does have some helpful hints, plus there are more stills so it's just not the same three pictures over and over again.

The third video, which I'm working on now, will be a collection of quick questions, including what the Captain did to get himself stuck with community service.
