Dark Energon

I literally just made a new corruptor, Archery/Trick Arrow named Eagle-Eye.

I got that Forbin, and that is something i did pick up with that ordeal.

Also, if, and that is a big IF, a GM decides to Generic me, it'll be my 1st Gen'd toon in 3 years. That is much different than being new to the game and having 2 gen'd toon in a span of 3 or 4 days.

Zombie man, u mean!
but damn, that made me laugh.. I'll deff try the mission door thing one day.

My opinion about what i just saw.

Nice touch for the Costume Contest winner. I remember him, he looked pretty decent in the contest. So props to him.

About the missions itself:
1st Movie, the Casino Heist seem a little confusing. This might be because i haven't played it yet, but the pop up power to help out your team mate with the phone call should get more attention drawn to it so people can use it. Also the class picking should be something that could be explained prior to picking the class.

Also.. WHIPS! I was looking at the guy with the Whip, looking for demons or his AT, couldn't see if he was a Demon MM, but yeah.. Whip Powerset anyone?

2nd Movie, the Gladiator battles.. nice touch with the crowd interaction, maybe an idea to add an animation like a show off to it to justify the crowd going wild?

Overall, i'm looking forward to doing these in person. Seems like they really did their best in making something very new, and it worked.

Great job guys.

X Caliber, Dual Pistol/Energy Blaster.
Body of Darkness, Dark/Dark Dom.
Time of Death, Time/Beam Defender
Polly Ution, Radiation Troller.

Zwill did say there was going to be a live aspect to this at a later date.

However, yeah, after the 1st few days, this invasion seems to get the ignore treatment. What a shame.

Zwill said it best, give these guys some leeway, they are not set up like we are when we play.

I enjoyed the Trial preview, and i'll check the summer event out too.

Indeed, this is some great advertisement for the game.

Nice to see people on both sides on the fence regarding this issue.

Let me clear a few things.

I do not want people perma banned for 3 Gen'd toons in a short amount of time, maybe i should have used the term suspension.

I also understand that there is a difference between ripp-off toons and homage toons, and i do not know how the Generic process works, but there has to be a difference between them regarding punishments.

Rip-off toons know they will eventually get generic'd, while homage toons have much less chance of this happening.

That said, i have reported a few toons for violations, mostly because they look, are named, have the bio, and have the powers. I don't report people for just a name, and the amount i reported is countable on one hand. The thing is, when i reported a Simpsons rip-off toon that had all these things, even weeks after i reported him he was still in game, this just made me wonder how much CS really cares.

I do not know if accounts are being flagged atm for a violation, and if so, how flags are being seen and such.

I do would like to comment about a reply:
Someone mentioned Probation after being Gen'd, and i like that idea.

Is it just me, or are more people getting sick and tired of these people that have no imagination when creating a toon?

last week.. Wednesday was my 1st day in game that week, i made a new staff fighting toon, swept the street to get a quick level. I go to Miss Lib, and who do i see? a toon names SnakeEyez, dressed as Snake-Eyes, dual Blade power set and even a bio stating he was from a top secret military unit.
All i said was: "Pleased to meet you mister soon to be known as Generic 847 924 6722, because if someone reports you, that will be your new name." He went off on me that i should leave him alone, because i had his toon Gen'd a few days prior. A whole discussion about copyright infringement started with people giving their two cents.
10 minutes later, a toon named Generic ### ### #### starts yelling at me that i should get lost because i got his toon Gen'd, his second in a few days. Again, a whole altercation followed, and he said he was going to report me for harassment. Only thing i said: : "Good luck."

Now, obviously if he has two toons that got Gen'd in a few days, this player has no imagination. His reaction, albeit a little, just a little, understanding, was directed at the wrong person. I never reported him prior, or even after the incident, all i did was laugh.

Would it be a smart policy to not only protect the game, but also the players from these type of people that could potentially hurt the game, but also drive people away because of the repeat offender's attitude because he get's angry about the fact his toons get Gen'd.
One way i see is a simple ban for a period after your 3rd Generic in a set amount of time.

Now i hear people say: "hey, i have been playing 7 years, and i had 3 toons Gen'd in that period, i should not get banned!" And i agree.
But i do not agree with the fact that people get to oust their frustrations after a 2nd Gen'd toon in less than 1 week, and this has to stop.

People should get banned for being a repeat offender in a short amount of time. These people will add nothing new to the table, and will only cause harm to the game in the long run, and the player base.
As i stated, i got his full wrath, because he thought i got two of his toons Gen'd. If he went off on a newer player, that new player might just quit the game in order to not deal with these types of people, where as i merely laughed in his face because i knew i did nothing wrong.

Anyone who has any suggestions or feedback regarding this?

Thnx Sentry for the link and info.

I love PvP, and i'd prob join if it wasn't on a diff server.

Anyways, i hope you guys have fun!

And again, we should revive the PvPReps!
PvP is still done on a few servers, some are more PvP heavy than others, but PvP is PvP, and like me, some do not want to transfer their toons to a diff server, even if it is just for an event..

I understand that part, it has been said a few times.. what not been stated... What Server this is on.

What server is this on?
And i rather bring my own 3 man team.

So i guess it won't be on Guardian, Test or Beta, meaning a server transfer, this combined with the team aspect.. count me out.

Nice idea tho, i hope you guys have fun, and good luck!
We should get new PvPReps, host these types of events on each server, and have the server winners battle it out on Test/Beta.

I'll even volunteer to be a PvP Rep for my home server.

Devs: We will test out a new system we want to implement.. Freebie Friday, you get something for free every week.
Playerbase 1: YAY!
Playerbase 2: Free? How much will that cost us?
Devs: This week it's an XP booster
Playerbase 1: Test worked, looking forward to next week!
Playerbase 2: WTF? I do not need this, why this, what's wrong with you? I wanted (fill in the blanks)!

I'm in the 1st group, i do not care what group you belong too.
Hit Streak said it best, so did Black Pebble: You do not have to 'buy' it if you do not like it.
They understand that they can not please everyone all the time, even with a fully free item, people will find a way to complain.

Best part was when spider-man got bullied out of his lunch money, while in the lunch line, by Maria Hill... Fury saw it, and could barely control his laughter.

Player: I demand change, i will not be bullied any lo......
