I was working on my AE arc and a few things came up that i think would really add a lot for authors. Let's discuss shall we.
In my opeing mission after resculing a ally you need to find a boss but far as i can tell you can't actually get them to spawn with a waypoint forcing a game of "find the green glow"
My second mission, when i envisioned it, had 2 big bads duking it out with each other, exhancing banter and with the players needing to help one of the 2 combatants by laying into the other one. I'd love to be to set of duels. Sort of like Battle but with one boss vs another. Preferably a AV vs a GM
On the same subject i'd love to be able to set a "switch sides" effect. Currently in mission 2 once you rescue the lord of Arachnos the other Arachnos patrols still try to kill you, and seriously what spider is going to try and fight Lord Recluse? I'd love it if you could set a paramenter like "when xxxx is complete" this patrol/boss/etc switches to ally or rogue.
Again id also like to spawn multiple GMs in the same map. Id love to have a Arachnos Flyer in the same map that is initaly Rikti controled but if the players do something like say defeat a sub boss and take the flyer down to half health it reverts to arachnos control
Lastly i'd love it if escorts could be programed with destination that doesn't exist yet. In my 5th mission i have some allies who have a grudge agaisnt the end boss, but the end boss doesn't spawn until his honor guard is defeated. Ideally I don't even want them as allies but independent 3rd parties on their own paralele mission. That might actually delay you (or help/team up) with you if you cross their path. -
Would you mind revuewing mine? I've made a number of revamps to this arc since it's creation.

Through the Looking Glass Part 1
by @Cuppa LLX
Earth X lost the war with the Rikti in 04 due to a lack of Hero emergence. Since that time Hero emergence has been at a all time low despite the greater dangers. With the Rikti in control they reach out to us, Prime Earth, to help and like good medeling heroes we step up to help defend this world and beat back the Rikti Threat. -
Quote:this i gotta know as it could add a wrinkle to TTLGHere's a Lore Question put forward by Offizier Jaeger: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?p=3044316
In the Dr. Khan task force the text from Tina Macintyre indicates that Reichsman has been actively kidnapping alternate dimension versions of Marcus Cole and sapping their powers.
The actual task force itself plays out a bit differently. The task force gives the indication that Reichsman is merely draining the power of his alternative selfs, not that he actually has physical possession of these other Marcus Coles.
Ergo: which is it? Does Reichsman actually managed to successfully kidnap the Primal Earth Statesman without anybody else noticing?
If Reichsman is actually abducting various alternative dimensional Marcus Coles, how did he get to them or find them to begin with?
Where is Reichsman storing these kidnapped Marcus Cole's anways?
The story Tina Tells just doesn't add up with what the player experiences.
* * *
The interaction of Reichsman with alternative dimensional selfs also raises another question: Was Reichsman draining power from the Praetorian Marcus Cole, aka Tyrant? -
I'd liek to see more of the unique mape sliek the "abandoned super group base" from the posi tf, and the giant underground cavern from Eden TF

Quote:How much more selfish can "only I know what is right for everyone" and on the other point, He makes the norms, hard to violate yourselfWhile I would agree that Emperor Cole does use similar means (charisma, manipulation, intimidation... etc.), his goal isn't selfish, and he's not violating the social norms.
no he's just, and i quote, "a wild dog serving his master's leash" -
Quote:the same could be said about Emperor Cole, except the white man has the power, pushing the brother down!Even if you take an objective viewpoint, Calvin Scott is a raging sociopath.
Sociopathy is essentially psychopathy, except that it's caused by environmental factors (eg, losing your wife). For a professional's description of psychopathy:This is a perfect description of Calvin Scott. While I doubt there's much sexual intercourse involved in Scott's quest to get his wife back, he is absolutely using charisma, manipulation, and/or intimidation to get people to join his Resistance, and he's using violence against the Praetorian utopia to vent his anger. And regaining his wife is absolutely a selfish goal; he doesn't care what happens to Tyrant or any of the praetors. In fact, if they gave him his wife back, he'd probably return to being a loyal citizen.
Scott doesn't care how much collateral damage he creates pursuing his wife. He doesn't care how far away from the societal standards of Praetoria he strays. He has no guilt about it. He won't shed a tear about any of it.
Calvin Scott is a textbook sociopath.
Fight the oppression Calvin! -

Quote:i'm getting the exact same vibeHamidon Wars? Hm, this background is getting more and more interesting.
And the Ghouls look like the Banished Pantheon to me, stylistically... but I also feel they share some themes with both the Vahzilok and the Lost.
maybe Vazi uses rikti tech to make his zombies and it goes horibly wrong? -
is Scott perfect? No but in Pretoria everyone is a little darker...Cole...tillman...Scott...
in PRetoria the line between Good And Evil is made of swish cheese -
Quote:good luck and good health, i know the feeling i twisted my ankle a few months ago...it's still sore. My berother tumbled of his bike and bruised his ribs...Thanks for all your support and understanding!
Thought I'd give you an update..
So far...not quite as good as I wished it would be. <-- very frustrating indeed
I seem to be able to hold a pen again...though it's not how I naturally hold it...
My thumb seems to have taken on a different pose and seems to be stuck that way...I wish I had X-ray vision!
Anyways... it's better than before..but still not good. May even have to visit a doctor next week *panics*.
And yes bowling is awesome... perhaps I should practise throwing with left from now on.
Hope to see you soon again!

Quote:There are healing arrowsHaha well it would make a good answer to the "R U a Healer?" question. I sure am! Here allow me to "Insert" my healing arrow into you... I'm told one shot to the chest does wonders.

Quote:well the art is good, but i dunno the scene doesn't really hit me. the last one was this big brooding profile shot.That's what I was going for, Cuppa_LLX! Thanks!
Now another drawing request finished.
One for ShadowGhost.
Tower of Power looking in the mirror and seeing his "other side".
I'm not happy with the mirror itself, but otherwise... I didn't do all that bad, I think.
This doesn't really seem to have any emotional impact, might be from the angle. i've seen other mirror shots and its usually from odd angles.
Ever read the Mystique comic? Theres a scene with her (in disguise) on a train with her true face reflected in the window as she looked out it boardly.
Hope you don't feel insulted by my, hopefully constructive, criticism -
Quote:interesting. I love how the leather and cloat work together in it. Iget a very dark knight vibe off it

Quote:Spy?Thank you! I was exceptionally happy when I found the name available back when I first snagged it, around the time WP and Dual Blades launched. I could totally see an SG like that, and I'm sure we both know folks who could run with a concept for "Insert," though I dare not speculate on the outcome.
You know
Inserting into hostile teritory? -
Quote:please, oh and if it help this character is sort of a GR concept. In CoV she is a Mercs/Traps Mastermind, but after being curned to the form of a Catgirl she goes blue side to, well basicly she tries to get herself badly beat up so she can get amputated and restore her original robot body piece by piece....things don't go as planed.I do Cuppa_LLX! -> it was fun drawing Sapphic!
Shall I put you on my "request list"?
In any case shes a
Mercs/Trap MM
Shield/SS Tank
