  2. Well, I should've said 'both Kheldians' but it looked weird when I wrote it that way.

    I'm not sure, but I think we were just Raspberryed. heh
  4. - - - Incarnates - - -
    Incarnate as an origin type aren't available to players for whatever reason the devs decided. Statesman and Recluse are the most well known, but there's also Imperious, Trapdoor (from a villain experiment gone wrong), the unnamed woman who gave birth to the Snakes, and Ms. Liberty / Miss Liberty from the Girdle of Hera. Others may be out there, but that's all I can think of at the moment off the top of my head.

    I can see how the 'powers that be' want Incarnate to be exclusive to the major heroes and villains, but that aside it would be nice if that was made available to players in some form or another. Maybe both sides, but since the VEATS are relatively less restricted than Kheldians, there could be a more in depth Roleplay reason for them not to be given to the Villain side, as Recluse wouldn't want the competition or whatnot.

    Incarnates as a HEAT could counterbalance the two VEATS on the villain side. The reason I say that is because Kheldians have Voids and such giving them a hard time. (more on this below)

    - - - Kheldians - - -

    There are arguments over Kheldians that're as long as they have been available. Voids and Quantums being the main ones for players of Kheldians, and Shadow Cysts for players that don't play them. Meaning: They don't like Kheldians in their group because they could spawn a big bad Shadow Cyst and screw up their plans of Über Domination. *shrugs*

    - - - Badges - - -
    I've looked, but haven't found Defeat badges for Quantums, Voids, or Shadow Cysts. If they're around in some other form, then disregard my suggestion of adding them. If they were introduced, then there might be more folks willing to have them in their group, so that they can go after those badges.

    If they get all three, then they can get an Accolade that would either give a resistance to those energy rifles, etc, and/or give a better attack/damage against those sorts of mobs, or all three.

    Name them what you want, but giving a perk for defeating those mobs would most likely get those who simply don't like Kheldians turned around. Well, hopefully.

    Then there's the other possibility of nerfing the Voids, Quantums, and Cysts, so that they don't seem to auto hit the Kheldians. *shrugs*



    At any rate, I had to get this out of my head while it was still in there.

    Anyone want to toss this about, or are flames in my future? *dons asbestos suit*
  5. I fully support this idea. In addition to existing zones and stuff, they could have generic cityscapes which could double for neighborhoods that aren't in game yet. Sort of like the existing train missions.

    Dolphin, if thats all you got from the OP and the subsequent posts you where not paying attention.

    To recap: cool new stuff good. Limiting it to origin bad.

    If you want to know why I suggest you re-read the thread.

    [/ QUOTE ]Then don't limit it to origin?

    *shrugs*

    We've got magic folks wearing tech armor, and technical geniuses running around in loincloths for crying out loud.
  8. Wow. The negativity from the forum high post count seems way too high.

    What the guy's asking for are the Iron Man gloves that have repulsors in the palm, Captain Cold's freeze ray (that pistol doesn't count as it's a 25 minute one shot), Weather Wizard's wand, or Green Lantern's Ring: An actual physical device or weapon that is the source of their power.

    Personally, I think it's a marvelous idea. I doubt that the devs will put forth the time or effort into it. But, I think it's a wonderful idea nonetheless.

    Put me in the 'want' category for this one.

    I was going to let this go, but I don't feel right doing that.
    TA, and everyone that tended to snicker at his comment, how would you have responded if I told you he WAS gay? Or, that I was gay? I'd expect the art community to be a lot more tolerant and a bit less "juvenile".

    Listen, I've been a member of this art community for a few years now. This is the FIRST time I feel a bit disappointed by the behavior displayed in a thread. It's an alienating feel thinking I may be the ONLY one finding comments criticising a character's appearance for looking "gay" a bit distasteful.

    If I'm the only one finding a problem with that, then I'll bid my farewell now.

    OI! I respect the LGBT community.

    However, you have to admit that it was at least chuckle-worthy.

    Thanks guys. You made me wake up the wife with the laughter.

    She thinks I'm crazy now.
  12. Yeah, sorry. Thought I was more clear. Sleep deprivation makes me babbly.

    I was going to edit that. *pause* In fact, I will.

    Now for the suggestions:
    1. Improving the game engine: I think they're doing that with the rogue thing already.

    2. Stances: It would be cool to have stance settings. Standing 'cool' or 'slouched' or whatnot as an actual all time thing for when they're standing still would be nifty.

    3. Minor Costume Enhancements: *nods* Cool.

    4. Voices: That would take a whole new department I think, plus voice actors, script writing, yadda yadda yadda. I don't think they'd go for that.
  14. The main problem with sonic is that it has to sound right for both male and female characters. Then again, I don't play female characters, so they may have solved that by doubling the sounds already. If not, it'd be nice if they did... *shrugs*

    At any rate, I don't play my sonic because of the annoying noise. Which makes sense, since they're supposed to be annoying to hurt mobs and whatnot. *shrugs again*


    Ok... I got nuthin.

    *skulks off*
  15. It is a bit weird that they do nothing but roam the streets.

    This would be cool IMO.

    I don't know of anyone who cares about DRLAISN, KT0LAQHF, DYXT, or whatever nonsense name that they come up with. I personally don't give two snits about when NCSoft catches and bans those tools. I'd just like it if they would have a script that would periodically scrub the global ignore list when you log in or out or whatever.

    [/ QUOTE ]Then you'd lose anyone who had actually earned a place on your list for their own actions. (Which you do now if you don't periodically clean it manually.)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If they get banned, why should I care? They wont be back on that account at any rate.

    [edit] Even if they get unbanned later, it wont take long for them to get that ignored distinction again if they haven't changed their ways.

    Actually, increasing the "ignore" list just pushes your "fingerwag incident" out further.

    But an auto-drop of accounts once banned would be great!

    [/ QUOTE ]That won't ever happen, because that's NCSoft informing you of customer service actions against other accounts.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    So they don't have to tell us. I don't care if they get banned. I just want the name to be quietly whisked out of my bloated ignore list, by the invisible cyber-pixies under cover of night, never to see the light of day again.

    Don't tell me, and I'll never know or give a rat's rectum.

    [/ QUOTE ]It *is* telling you if you notice the name at the top of the list is the one that suddenly disappeared.

    Ack. Either someone didn't check the list of names, or didn't notice the skin tone.

    Rachelthulu - How about making glowies act as friendlies with a series of point blank area of effect buffs that ignore line of effect, each with a progressively smaller radius? Have the buffs do nothing, but they stack with each other. So as you get closer and closer to the center more icons appear as 'effecting' you.

    [/ QUOTE ]This actually makes the most sense to me. Either that, or an arrow like effect on the compass map that shows up when within a certain radius.

    Your ignore list is full. '@spamartist' was removed from your ignore list to make room for the new entry.

    Please either increase the ignore list "queue", or auto-remove banned accounts.

    Thank you,

    PS:
  25. All I know about this expansion is... Krotus and Sorozat are going to be frikken ecstatic being able to get out of their current situations.

    Thank you devs for finally doing this. I'm sure the deaths of the interns had nothing to do with that...
