    Or are they going to alter the Beam Weapons animations for use with Pistols?
    I assume for Dual Pistols. There is also voting on rifle models - presumably for Beam Rifle set.
  2. There are times I think they got the evil and good morality missions screwed up.

    I become a hero by letting an assasin kill my alternate self...

    I become a villain by defeating my future world conquering self...

    Whole heartedly agree, it helps make up for things like not holding pummits out where people live that aren't convienent to Cali... (and I meant this as a positive, and not a dig)

    But that does not answer the OPs question about how to get back to their desired characters, does it?
    And if they cannot access the VIP server to move them...

    (I am just trying to figure out if the characters/Exalted being in the mix is what is making his experience different and try to help him/customer support.)
  5. nice looks, tough choice.

    I went C, it had the accordian pleated elements I picture in retro looks. And as much as I liked B, there aren't any glowing lines on any retro suits my memory provides me...


    EDIT: BTW, I love the option to vote on the concept art. Well played in terms of follow-up to the initial phase of this effort.
  6. I voted B.

    It had the rings, that were a big part of what I saw from the design element from the pummit and the fin flaring back would work well with a lot of current costume pieces style/theme-wise.
  7. I'll ask again... did you move the characters to Exalted the VIP only server?
  8. Is the server in question Exalted, by chance?

  10. Looks at OP...

    A lot of leaping to conclusions... *decides to wait for the actual SSA release*

    OR, no he is not. I zoomed in on the pic and it is someone in the elemental armor.
    Just looking at the in thread version it looked like Manticore.

    Nothing to see here, move along, move along...

    And, Panzer, I like your statues as well. They look very nice, and would be fun to collect without a doubt. Enjoy.
  13. Nice eulogy. A nice piece to fit in the lore.
    And, I'm glad this wasn't in a cutscene in an SSA at this length... maybe a shorter version in game, so this works nicely.


    (AND, am I the only person who can see Manticore standing right there left of the casket?...just behind the two ranks of LB.)

    As was mentioned - nope.
    Not only here since mayhem's, but was a major element of the Going Rogue release as her entire story in that has her side switching from hero to villain....

    Edit: and, oh, Fusionette. No contest.

    re-edit: Man, I just didn't read far enough...

    I'll come over and help her, Wyll.

    Great call. My vote goes with Samuraiko's for Sister Flame.

    Granted, I cannot deny it.

    However,... I can't imagine just anyone gets to pull Rularru into this world/dimension willy-nilly... or that it just coincidentally happened either.

    I've read some pretty convoluted and preposterous comic book plots....

    Who are actively helping him, given who I had to fight in the arc we appear to have beings as 'cosmic' as this game has presented so far... so looking back at the earlier statement.........

    um... so I just flat don't understand this comment at all... there is a need to explain/discuss why Twilight is fantasy?

Tolkien's magic works because.....Frank Herbert's Dune works because....the writers have made the effort to convince you of the validity of their story.
    Bah. it doesn't hang together any better or worse than any traditional comic story line... it feels and plays like most any comic book story I've read. It is as much a factor of the mashed up, convoluted genre as anything

    I personally think the 'fudged' and other complaints are overblown... but, yeah, is it a stretch that a minor character Darren Wade sweeps in and downs the big guy. Sure... but is the little fellow playing with things over his head? Is someone manipulating him?

    On the whole, I think I am in "Silver Gale's camp". (If there is one... or I'm in my camp, calling it Silver Gale's Camp.... Maybe Sivler Gela's Camp to avoid copyright infringement....)

    So. Poison.

    Thematically, I have enjoyed my Radiation Blast/Posion corr.

    Rad is relatively low on the melee range, so it has been working nice through about mid-20s (in relation to Aett_Thorn's) comments.
  22. At the time I thought how it seemed States got caught monologuing instead of the villain... (And he was just a ton over confident, but I guess being invincible will do that to you...)

    And the fall of Statesman should put the stamp of shame on all tank sets that don't include a self rez....


    Edit: for the record I do not see anything to justify/explain why they revealed the death early.

    Either get rid of the sound completely, or set it back the way it was. As it is more annoying than useful now.
    Didn't say I liked it. Just musing a "perhaps" scenario...
  24. With these two tricks, you can pretty much skip having to worry about the animation you do not want.
