  1. *ahem*

    Come on man, it wasn't even on the second page. Look before you leap.

    Having said that, the devs should take these multiple threads (I was going to make one myself before I saw the above linked thread) as a sign that this is an incredibly annoying "feature" and should remedy it in Issue 24 (unless they already plan to do so).

    It's not ironic either.

    And it would make more sense, in line with a Smashing slam suggestion...to keep the Vorpal name and swap out the damage type.
    While I agree that the name doesn't fit, the fact remains that it is a kicking attack, thus it is Smashing damage. Rename it if you must, but it makes zero sense for a kicking attack to be Lethal damage just because of its name.
  4. Add Registrars to the map (seriously, has it been this long??), and maybe make them a little more commonplace. Currently they're in Atlas Park and Port Oakes, maybe add another one each to Talos Island and St. Martial.

    Nothing was "fixed", it can simply be given a no effects (except PvP) setting (much like Willpower) via Power Customization, which has been extended to Power Pools. You can also color your Hasten hot pink, if you're so inclined.

    Some rocket-y ones would be fun too
    Kicks are Smashing damage, not Lethal.

    Not to mention every single mission that has War Walkers on an interior map.

    Power Customization wouldn't have happened if BaB hadn't worked on it during his spare time. It was always a matter of resources/time and that didn't change just because we got it.

    It also doesn't make you a hypocrite if you think something won't happen then use it once it does happen.
  9. I still don't get why we don't have an Orbital Strike Judgement.
  10. Doctor Creed's arc (still accessible via Ouroboros).
  11. I had this exact thought yesterday. I don't know why it defaults to expanded in the first place, it's just an idiotic design decision.

Unless the dev specifically come out and says "We aint never ever going to do that, ever." then never say never and even then for those small cases, its not 100% certain.
    I never said it was. I just said that I don't see it happening, and I don't see that there's really any point to it anyway when it's pretty easy to dump your stuff at the market or a vendor between missions (or just delete it as you go).
  13. Eh, it's not that big a deal to unload on the market. And I really don't see the devs giving us a virtual storage increase.

    It was more of a last straw type of deal which then led to banning those types of thread completely.
    Not to mention the fact that they really had nothing to do with Comics and Hero/Villain Culture.

    Scheharazede?

    Seems to be a book store, as its logo is similar to the now defunct Borders Books.

    That hasn't been the case since Freedom launched so I don't see why it would be the case now. I'm sure they'd have said something in the announcement.

    Patron plagues

    They're irrelevant by now anyway, completing any Patron arc unlocks all 4 pools, you don't need to see the powers before choosing your Patron.

    Nobody is taking your thread seriously because your thread was not made seriously, just like all the rest of your inane gibberish threads. Honestly I'm kind of shocked it's even still open.

    That, or everybody is too entranced by the original GIF to comment on it. I know I've had to stop myself from watching it a few times.

    That would require our characters to actually have fingers.

    He also forgot to put on face paint and give himself a Glasgow grin. Really just a botched job.
