When someone asks you if you're a god, you say "YES"!

Yes please.

Quote:I'm sure if KB did meaningful extra damage based on the distance knocked back (which is both logical and thematic), it would be more popular.Originally Posted by Veslin
Makes me sad that the KB is considered so bad almost everyone chooses a specific Patron Pool for that reason alone. Takes away from the idea behind CoH being making a unique character and taking powers you like rather than to mitigate a drawback of your primary powerset. -
It's died a considerable amount to me, especially the CRPG genre (damn you Bioware and Bethesda
).

Quote:The fact that you have to wait until level 35+ is problem. The only way I'll make and play a character is if the costume is completely finalized at character creation (costume recipes being the exception). I wouldn't be opposed to turning all unlockable pieces into costume recipes that drop upon completion of the required task. Of course that would mean the badge unlockables would need a change so that they are repeatable.Originally Posted by Gray_Lensman
I also think you're exaggerating how much work unlocking these things requires. You make it sound like completing an ITF or doing a couple of ship raids are horribly onerous, involved tasks that demand a huge chunk of your life to complete.

Hey, Planescape: Torment broke the chart after only three spaces.

In the past, certain costume pieces were special because one earned them.

I'm inclined to oppose this as well, but to play devil's advocate....
Unlock them at level 38. Given the nature of most tier-9 secondaries, giving players the choice of taking them or taking their first epic pool power would make for some interesting build options. While the epics usually help "round out" a character, many/most tier-9's are "extreme situation" aspects of the archetype. (Elude, for example, offers extreme defense values, while many of the ancillaries offer a controller-y power at the first level.)
- It wouldn't necessarily be game-breaking
- It would open up more power selection variation
- Now that fitness is inherent, it offers additional power options in their place (people could choose all 5 epics.)
Of course,
Does it NEED to be done? No.
Is it necessarily a bad idea? No. -

As the devs have said, though, there's a difference between a "booster" which may hold just very specific items, and a "super booster" which is intended to be closer to what you're describing.

I'd trade a bunch of power selections for slots on my Warshade. So many worthless powers.

Things would need to be scaled back a bit, but I think a lot more heroes are possible than before.

I can't see any actual super powered comic book characters working well on a TV series. Too little budget and not enough action to really capture the spirit of the major superheroes.

Quote:Assault would mean Dual Pistols with Martial Arts and the possibility for a Gun + Sword set. And Gun + Bayonet. And Melee Knife + Throwing Knife. And so on and so forth. *salivates at the possibilities and lack of redraw*Originally Posted by BrandX
If Assault = Dual Pistols, then I would agree.
*edit*
That could be the gimmick of the new AT, two half-size primary attack pools (ranged and melee) that you can combine in different ways. -

Quote:This, this, and this.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Because I want to actually use the costume pieces, and if I don't pay money for them, they'll get stuck behind running the Alpha TF three times, killing 1000 War Walkers, having been subscribed for 100 months or possessing 500 badges or some other nonsense like that.
Recent content seems to suggest this is now less likely the case than it was before, but as long as we have a Vanguard set which costs 1000 Merits, Rularuu weapons which require 100 level 40+ Overseers which always spawn in groups of twos and threes, Nictus Romulus items which require doing the ITF twice on the same character and Rikti weapons which can only be unlcoked in rare, annoying, lag-infested events, I choose to disbelief that anything has changed in a meaningful way. -

Quote:If only that level slider set the recipe's level.Originally Posted by SwellGuy
There's a problem for your rolling right there.
There are certain levels where some recipes/enhancements sell for much more than the other levels. Some prime examples are 32, 33, 35, and 38. So when you are level 39 or 41 and so on and you roll your rolls are already diluted in value even if it is one of the most desired IOs.
I don't like to sit on items so I only roll at 25, 30, and 35 and I save my tickets, r-merits and a-merits until I am at those levels or until I am 50. This is just something I do to limit the risk of my rolls. -
Quote:That will happen at the same I get a branching PPD Epic AT to go along with the Longbow Begone expansion.Originally Posted by FredrikSvanberg
I'll just wait for the Rikti epic AT which is no doubt being created RIGHT NOW to go along with the RIKTI HOME WORLD EXPANSION which should be coming along shortly. In a good and just universe it should, anyway.

Quote:Of course they're not going to look as good as if they were filmed on a bleeding edge modern camera, but they will look a hell of a lot better than any DVD release. And the Superman Blu-Ray does look a hell of a lot better than the DVD. The movies that don't look better on Blu-Ray than DVD were filmed on regular digital cameras, incredibly shoddy film stock, or mishandled during conversion (e.g. the pure evil of DNR).Originally Posted by Mothers_Love
And considering the age of the original trilogy, even though they have been restored, they were not filmed in high def so are not going to be as crystal clear as if they were filmed with todays camera-tech. I've read several reviews that said the Blu-Ray Superman film is barely worth it over the normal remastered dvd re: picture quality.
