Quote:Sort of begs the question, why can't the pet powers be flagged to accept all enhancements? It's not like the pets could be slotted any differently.Originally Posted by Wonderslug
Set IOs are flagged as a single "type" of enhancement, while HOs are flagged as every type they can enhance.
Every melee damage IO, for example, is recognized by the powers system as a damage enhancement even if, say, it enhances acc/end/rech and doesn't buff damage at all. Only powers flagged to accept damage enhancements will benefit. Likewise, pet damage IOs are all treated as damage enhancements, which is sometimes problematic since pets generally have multiple powers which inherit their slotting from the power that summons them. If one of those powers doesn't accept damage enhancements, it doesn't get the benefit from pet damage IOs.
HOs, on the other hand, are actually flagged as multiple enhancement types, which is why you could slot, say, a Microfilament into Power Blast and still get the end reduction. (It would be silly, but you could.) It's also why HOs behave much more reliably in pets, especially things like Dark Servant that can be slotted for a multitude of different effects (but not, notably, damage). -
Don't get me started on the Magic Pack Witch Hat being female only.

The Praetoria Police Belt is missing its model. You can select it, but nothing appears.

Add a giant Festivus pole to each zone.

Those pictures kinda make the game look better back then, IMO.

I third Speed Racer. Also The Thing and Big Trouble in Little China look amazing on Blu-Ray, it's insane how well those were cleaned up.

I'd say replacing Conserve Power with something else entirely would be the best bet. What about a PBAoE that works like Siphon Speed+Siphon Power, but with the boosts only affecting the caster?

Perfectly stable here, but I am plagued by a flickering black textures and shadows in Praetoria and sometimes Villain side with Ultra Mode shadows enabled. Plus the insanely aggressive LOD setting in Praetoria (why yes I love having trees and nearby buildings change models every time I move 5ft). The worst offending area I can think of is the Resistance base with its magical popping metal struts.
I'm starting to think the game engine itself has to a problem with drawing a ton of unnecessary, non-visible objects which really craps out the performance; and the aggressive LOD is the devs way of admitting that they have no way to fix it. -

It looks kinda Green Lantern-ish - not awesome, but not awful

*twitch*
A movie, based on a 30 minute toy commercial from the mid-80s. All it needs is giant robots and explosions. Enough with the Bay-hate already, he's doing exactly what the majority of Transformers fanboys already want. GIANT ROBOTS and EXPLOSIONS. -
Until you can get decent 3D without glasses/gimmicks I'll be sitting out.

So I take it Mega Shark won the first round?

Speaking of which, I feel Psi Blast was a huge missed opportunity. I'd have LOVED to see animations for that powerset that just had your character do NOTHING but glow at the head. You know what I mean, right? You stand in place, focus your mind and people around you drop dead. No need for arm flailing or pointing or yelling. You kill people WITH YOUR MIND. I can't imagine that would take more development time than the absurd new animation that most of Psi Blast got. HOLY HELL is that one bad!
-
I'm dismayed by the incredible lack of pizazz and variation in these new animations.

Swiss, pepper jack, or provolone? Because if it's swiss, then bleh. Cuz that stuff tastes like feet.

Franco is awesome, but I don't watch award shows.

They should be allowed to take the APPs if only because they get access to the Patron powers.

Turn Hurdle and Swift into endurance-less toggles and allow them to use Travel IOs.

Isn't that sorta what comics are about? Fantastical stories and action?
