That sounds rather cheesy to me.
Myself, I prefer to have it my way. -
I unsubbed from this game in February 2011. I was tempted to give away all the stuff I'd earned in game. Not just a plethora of purple IOs, but also quite a collection of base and component salvage!
When I returned to the game around October 2011, I was glad that I never did that. -

It was recently brought to my attention that there is only one R in Quaterfield.
There was this one time, though, I accidentally called him Dr. Quartermaster. -

Alternate version:
When in deadly danger.
When beset by doubt.
Run in little circles.
Wave your arms and shout.
When you find yourself in danger,
When you're threatened by a stranger,
When it looks like you will take a lickin'.
There is someone waiting,
Who will hurry up and rescue you... -

"No, go here. HERE! Crying out loud, do I have to teleport you? Do NOT make me teleport you, you pile of scrap!
Shoot them. No, SHOOT them! THAT IS PUNCHING THEM IN THE FACE! THAT IS NOT SHOOTING THEM! Ok, good, thank y- NO, NOT THAT MOB! DON'T AGGRO A WHOLE OTHER MOB YOU- ok, passive, follow. I said Follow. FOLLOW! This is not bloody rocket science! Ok, right, Defensive follow. I said DEFENSIVE. Yes, that means you attack them! Wha- NO, don't heal him, heal the Assault Bot!
Right, look, hell with it, you stay here while I go and toe-bomb that lot. Wh-?! WHAT PART OF STAY DO YOU NOT [Beep!] GET, YOU [Beep!] [Beep!] PILE OF [Beep!]?!?"
Normal day in the life of a Bots/Traps MM -_- Which is exactly why I stopped bloody playing him. -
Never start a fight, but always finish it.

Quote:So you're saying the new Justice League movie should have Wendy, Marvin & Wonderdog, and The Wondertwins?Originally Posted by RosaQuartz
And as dated as they seem now, the Superfriends cartoons were wildly successful. The Avengers movie doesn't have a particularly complicated plot, it succeeds on the basis of good characterization, fun dialogue, and HULK SMASH.

When Praetoria was released, the Dev's introduced the 'neutral' targeting faction. IE, the 'gold reticle'.
This is a TREMENDOUS feature. It allows enormous storytelling flexibility, and is the key technology that would allow free transit to all zones.
If you are a villain going to Paragon, all those Longbow patrols, all those PPD all over the place, they are no long untargetable NPC's, they are now gold box neutrals. They aren't SURE you're up to no good, but as soon as you take a swing....they know.
Add in the 'Seers-like' ability to radio for backup (PPD BACKUP RADIO!) and this makes things much more interesting.
Honestly, I have been a bit disappointed that the Dev's have not exploited the gold reticle a bit more. It is a tremendous tool for making dynamic content, just tremendous.
For example: "Lowby" zones tend to be a bit underused. King's Row, IP, etc. It would be fairly simple to sprinkle in a fair dose of neutral-set high level badguys. They're on patrol, but they're just chillin', because this is easy detail....Until it's not. Take a swing, and they go off on you.
You could have entire neutral factions, even. Heck, all of Malta and Cage SHOULD be set to neutral on the streets, and maybe in most missions. Malta isn't going to bother with a street battle, and Cage is curious to know if you have any cash on you before they start shooting.
Carnies should be a neutral faction. The Shadows aren't fighters, they're LOVERS, they just want to have fun and party and suck in the innocent and the unwary for a little soul-searching. Punching supers in the face is not a party activity.
Etc, etc, etc.
Granted, this would be a lot of work to implement, but it'd be cooool.
Please please make it happen! -

Is this the fortune cookie thread?
Let's try it!
Tall oaks form little acorns grow in bed.
Bless the mind too small for doubt in bed.
It is better to die for the Emperor than to live for yourself in bed.
Innocence proves nothing in bed.
Some men just want to watch the world burn in bed.
Wear sunscreen in bed.
Bob Dole in bed.
Money can be exchanged for good and services in bed.
The ability to get up after a defeat is far more admirable than the ability to never lose in bed. -

Wasn't that kind of plot where the bad guys capture the Justice League and then have to release them to defeat an even greater foe like, every other episode of Superfriends?

Quote:Which is also a robot. Super Mecha Statesman!Originally Posted by zachary_EU
Sister Psyches post was in IP so her statue could be there. Statesman needs really big statue... Something like statue of judgement in Judge Dredd. Top of statue on maximum height of the game and new superhero command center inside his head
edit. oh oh and lasercannons in his eyes -
Maybe they'll just bring back Terence Stamp as General Zod. He won't be so bored when there's a legion of heroes to challenge him this time!

Quote:So what... this game gives more control to the players who are easily offended?Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
That's always been the way it worked. Several years ago I had to rename a character because someone was offened by the word Phart. I laughed at it and renamed the character the same name in another language.
That offends me. I want that to change right now! -

Your little stunt is gonna leave the whole police department in debt up to our ******* eyeballs Murphy, OUR ******* EYEBALLs! Turn in your badge, and get out!
Murphy: Am I suspended?
SLJ as Da Chief: Yeah, the longest suspension you ever heard of! Now get the HELL out of my office! Now as for you Paul Rudd, what the hell are you doing in my office?
Paul Rudd: This isn't my office?
SLJ as Da Chief: Damn right it ain't! -
Wow. With all these epic movies being shown in Paragon City, it's kind of a bummer that all of the theaters there are so teeny-tiny!
Paragon City could really use a Giant Superplex Megatheater! -

Which means that it's probably going to be OUR fault when (NOT IF) he gets out.
EDIT: Oh wait no, I got it. WHEN we Incarnates mess up and let Rularuu loose, we all start preparing for his invasion of Primal Earth. But when he doesn't show up, we're all like, "What?"
Nooo, turns out he's gone to Praetorian Earth first. Full on clash of the titans between Rularuu and Praetorian Hamidon. It would set the stage for us to be rid of both of them once and for all. Especially if Praetorian Earth is finally rid of their Hamidon in the process, and that allows all of the Praetorian refugees to return back home to finally rebuild in true peace once and for all. -
The Shadow Shard would be way more cool if it had any of the following:
1. Villainside Shadow Shard Zones, with an awesome Arachnos base.
2. PvP and/or co-op zones where the hero and villain SS zones intersect (and where vigilantes and rogues could traverse from red to blue sides and back.
3. All of the other Death Stars holding aspects of Rularuu.
4. Nemesis' base.
5. Incarnate content related to keeping Rularuu from escaping the shadow shard. -

I don't know if having Alec Baldwin as a decorative base item is really such a hot idea.
