    Neither origin screams animal parts so it was their own fault for expecting animal parts.

    They would be considered Science origin in this game though.

    Bah, if it's a branching AT the mix of standard PPD powers with Kheldian powers would be interesting. Plus, who says the powers need to be exact copies of the PB powers.

    That look seems not to go over as well in the East.

    Hats

    I just want the option to remove the hair from the hats. Robots and skeletons and other hairless characters need hats too.
  6. DAMN THAT NINJA!!!!






    Just kidding, already read the comic. Plus Lori and the baby get killed off.
  7. That would be one more step towards me actually wanting to play Traps.

    Hoverboard doesn't necessarily mean hoverboard. It could be anything from a high tech floating device to a rocket/missile to a platform made of energy to a chunk of rock/ice and etc. But it would be best made a customization option for Fly rather than a whole new power.

    There's only so much you can do with material that was recorded on actual film and is 30+ years old.
    Because it was recorded on actual film means it will have an actual improvement when put onto Blu-Ray.

    I don't think this first Blu-Ray release of Star Wars warrants this comment.
  11. I've got say that my favorite adaptation of the original War of the Worlds novel was its integration into the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen comic.

    No, I'm talking about how the two vocal devs are now gone.
  14. Based on what's been happening recently on the forums, I predict complete silence from the devs.

    It doesn't have to be actual grappling.

    Any bright ideas?
    A Judo based or grappling martial art melee control set. Pressure point attacks combined with throws (which would take some animation finesse to look right, but it's possible) and knockdowns. Would be a great excuse for creating a Martial Art Assault/Manipulation set to go with it.
  17. Willpower. Not only is it incredibly solid, it causes no redraw outside the tier 9 and it's probably the most character concept friendly set in the game.

    The game runs like *** half the time on newer, faster computers too.

    Exactly, a circle-j*rk.

Really, most of the debate comes down to consumer preference. Some people want to get a bargain personal computer, and that's just not a market Apple targets.
    Of course you're going to get ripped off if you buy a pre-built machine.

    It's not about needing to put an End Redux SO/IO/HO in the power, it's that there's a huge disparity between just using pet sets and mixing it up when it comes to endurance.
  22. With the huge drop off in dev posts, the forums seem like a useless circle-j*rk at the moment.

  24. Then I suggest that the non-damage pet powers' endurance costs be adjusted so that the pet can not bottom out their bar while using them.
