  3. Nice one coin, as I was reading it in my mind, it was the same exact voice from the song XD

    Talos Rising

    This was kinda inspired by a thread I read through a couple weeks ago about the mound on Talos Island and how it could be the final resting place of the giant-hero, Talos. This sparked my imagination in that it would be cool to see giants tread the streets of Paragon once more. We can have giant pumpkin trees, retarded gnome-baby into chains, a mechanical spider, but no Talos or Atlas.

    This is my tribute to the big guy:

    Talos Rising

    Artist's notes:

    -I figured that Talos would have a sort of bronze costume, but after so many years under the earth, the colour's faded somewhat, so that's why the glove is that colour.
    -The heroes are not based on anyone's, they're just randomly generated in my mind. I call them Kitty-Litter and Jamaican Justice.

    this is why i think DC needs to think harder for there heroes, they all look to glossy and lame, reason 3 why i like marvel a lot more then DC can ever trow around.

    Yeah cos Marvel is so original. Oh, there's a new x-team? Lemme guess, Wolverine is on it? Of course he is! The biggest loner in the marvel universe must be on 4 different teams as well as having 2 solo books. (I know Batman does the same but I couldn't give a damn about him, he's a lamer)

    I spent the whole time until I could get another costume respec worrying I was going to get banned by a GM for corrupting any 12-year-olds that might be playing the game. (Then I realised I wasn't playing WoW... )

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Because all the 12-year-olds playing this game are already corrupted?

    I bloody hope so, if not I will personally mail all of them a copy of the first volume of The Boys
  8. You know what would be great? For each individual toon to be allowed to select the reward they want for each vet reward badge.

    Say you wanted to get the 15 Month reward but you don't want the wings, you want the Signature group logos that come with the 30 month reward. Why can't we implement this? I personally find some of the cooler rewards further down the list. Why do I have to suffer the dregs of the shoulder cape and wings when I'd rather have anime armour and arachnos helmets?

  10. Those are some great stories, ones I encounter often are the guy walking in midair in Atlas (aaaaah nostalgia!) and enemies dying in midair, that happens a lot whne you have an AR/Dev blaster methinks lol

    I like the idea. Even with Fat Controller.

    Basicly it would be a board train mission right? Not something like an event?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    No, like I said, like a board train mission within a "Board Train" lol

    And yes ninjy, I will be using that BTTF train as ref material
  12. This is an idea I've been sitting on for quite some time ever since I heard of a mission/arc involving Nemesis and a some kind of railway.

    My idea is simple enough, it's along the same vein as the "Board Train" missions along with a villain type twist.

    You board a train in any of the stations as per usual and you are taken to a train yard infested with Nemesis and work your way to the colossal and impressive Nemesis Express. Then you board then train in much the same way as villains get onto a frieghter then enter the bowels of the ship.

    "You feel the carriage shift as the metallic monstrosity groans into life and starts moving."

    You gradually work your way through the carriages, containing nemesis soldiers and some automated turrets. When you get to the engine itself, which has an elite warhulk hardwired into the machinery and you must defeat it to bring a halt to the train and foil the plot.

    I'm in the process of mocking up the train design and I'll be posting it in the creative section soon enough. Please tell me what you think.
  13. Inspired partly by rpgguy's thread about his void spawn encounter, I'd like to hear other people's weird bugs or stories of messed up things.

    The weirdest thing that's happened to me in-game was the first time I was shifted to an empty Atlas Park, no trainers, contacts, nothing. Not even litter! Scared the hell out of me. It also happened once on my villains main in Nerva.

    Over to you guys!

    Had a PB on the team last night. PB left after a while. Couple of hours later and we're still getting Void and Quantum Spawns. It's like the Kheld with team flag gets set and just never gets unset.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    This is a long running bug that's been with us since I3. If ANY member of a team has teamed with a Kheld in their current play session, any team they're on is likely to get quants, voids and cysts. You have to relog to clear the flag.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Since I3? Seriously? And they never fixed this?

    I agree with Phantom on the exploration front, while the exploration badges and collection badges are cool and all, they offer little else. Perhaps turn the badge collection badges into accolades, at least, the high end ones (ie 100, 200 and higher if they get introduced)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Perhaps a 'Super Explorer' accolade which gives you a power which can help you detect Exploration badges near you? It probably wouldnt happen but hey its a idea!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    yeah but once you're up to that level, you've already got the majority of badges so what's the point. maybe a couple of special emotes?

    Not sure how many have seen this or been told about this but on the US forums someone showed a link to a video of the new Vanguard Shield being turned on.

    You can see where the budget went, can't you? hahaha

    a human shield?

    I prefer the term "Meat Shield" preferably it would be a small child, just to make it that little bit more villainous

    Catz

    Got bored today and fancied a stab at drawing someone's toon, first icon on my friends list I saw was Catz's so et voila, a Catz quickie

    The face isn't too good admittedly but I like the way I drew the body so I decided to colour and post

    Day jobs

    I suppose the 30 day accolade system should outrage me but I'm more angered by the "Commuter" day job. Are the bloody kidding? Commuting isn't a job!

    I was hoping for some sort of comic-store owner day-job, and I hope it's gonna be included at some point. It could give an extra piece of invention salvage.

    Apart from that, the system seems solid to me, it'll be interesting to see what people choose

    Kind of wondering if 'Agony Auntie' will be available for Pain dom, not had inspiration strike for shield yet

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why not "Vigil Auntie"? Nice play on words and up for grabs I bet.

    I13 screenies!

    All the shields showcased thus far are impressive (despite the dull grey on many of them) and the new cossie pieces look cool, cop stuff will help with my Urban Shield toon once this goes live and I remake him. Can't wait to see what's unlockable and what other designs they can come up with squee
