    I would certainly be very happy if my main girl's "Glam" hair style didn't clip with her little cape and moved in the breeze. But I get that seems to be a sore subject. lol

    Once GR goes live, the ruined wasteland of a world ruled by the openly evil and insane Praetorians we've come to know will be totally retconned out of existence - it'll never have existed, and Praetoria will always have been the way it's protrayed in GR.
    Won't it be interesting doing Maria Jenkins arc when you started out as a Praetorian? o.O "Their embrace of Tyranny is truly staggering."
  3. I wonder if "Little Miss Mayhem" is a popular children's book in Praetoria.

  4. I don't think I can justify a six hour drive from Southern California to Northern California if it isn't going to be a full blown event. This makes me sad.

    How many is "not many", and what do we get for the guarantee if you are wrong?

    ExCUSE me? I was asking for clarification on what seemed completely ILLOGICAL. :P

    What I don't get is why you keep expecting a different answer on this when we've known this for months and months.

    What you asked is "Is going rogue just 1-20" the answer is "No, there is more." How is that not better news than we had?

    Given that mysterious slide shown at hero con, I would guess it would be a giant Praetorian Clockwork or PPD thing.

    Preferably retroactively awarding ones that we have on one toon, to all of them.
    I found this thread just to make that comment, and found it was brought up several times already. So yes. A thousand times this.

    Minor thing, that's a bit of a huge spoiler, isn't it?

    One of the best things about the closed Beta. I found this badge by accident when I ran the story for the first time. It was a really cool feeling, like playing a console game and suddenly earning a trophy or achievement. I doubt this will ever happen again due to the nature of MMO's and the community, and my own badge obsession. lol Not complaining, just saying I probably won't be pleasantly surprised like that again.
  14. It's no surprise, I guess, that all my suggestions have been named already. :P

    Gail Simone
    Peter David
    Kurt Busiek
    JMS from Babylon 5, cause I can't spell Strazynski
    Chris Claremont
    Stan Lee
    Will Wheaton
    Seth Green
    Felicia Day
  15. Is there any word on when the AE will get the new powersets and Power spectrum for custom critters?
  16. I don't understand how the GR closed beta can happen this week if issue 17 isn't even in open beta.

    Though who knows, we have Hammy back... they're letting a lot of things slide!
    Yeah...I guess. I don't mean to be antagonistic. So...sorry devs!
  18. Welcome back! It is kind of slow these days, but that should change once the new issue comes out.

    I guess I agree with all of you. lol
    I think I just saw the words unreasonable and interpreted it the wrong way.

    I don't know if any of the red AT's are required, actually. You will wind up with a brute and a few corruptors or doms on a pick up, most likely. The temps are great against the ambushes, but you can just kick back and pick them off. If you don't have the Mastermind, you can pound your way done.

    This simply isn't the place to discuss it.
    I see that point, but I find it curious that we have threads that also seem like they are in the wrong place. Most of them are not locked. (I'm not sure what Japanese babies have to do with "comic culture".) :P

    That's pretty much WHY Desdemona is the poster child for going Rogue. Because you don't expect it.

I know most of us can name a dozen comic book heroes off the tops of our heads, with maybe 2 of them being magic based.

    I'll learn to cope. But if one more person tries to read my tarot cards in game again, I'm gonna scream. :P
    Have you read any Marvel books lately?
    Dr. Strange, Dr. Voodoo, Dr. Doom, all the asgardians and the hood are "uncommon"? hehe

    Yeah, you can't really skip most of the missions and complete them with one or two teammates like you can on hero side.
