Electric-Knight

Actually... The Valentine's Day event is very different in that you can keep the mission(s) on characters and run them at any time and anyone on your team can earn the rewards.
If you want any of those pieces while the event is not running, ask around on your server and you're bound to find someone who is willing to run it with/for you!
I have a couple saved up still, on Virtue, I believe.
Heck, even with a couple of server transfers, if absolutely possible... you can get those items for any character at any time on any server.

As one artist to another...
While you are of course completely entitled to your personal opinion, please do not buy into any "artistic principal" as being a reason why the color choice may or may not work.
Embrace the fact that artists cannot please everyone at all times and that choices do not need reflect/follow tradition, mass approval, stereotypes, tradition, and so on.

If fuchsia is the color of death within that ancient society... then it makes perfect sense, no?
Just because you don't personally approve of that color choice does not make it incorrect... and neither does anyone else's teachings.

Just my friendly advice on artistic perspective.
Basically, I don't suggest touting our own artistry as reason for greater importance on our feedback, nor do I approve of artistic standards being used as rules to prove our personal opinions.
(Again, I say all of this as casually and friendly as can be!)

Ouch, is that how the store works with individual items and packs?
I had it backwards! Sorry I gave the wrong answer to someone before!!
I honestly thought it allowed you to buy packs after you've already bought individual items from within it.

The vampire high collar is definitely something I want. With that alone being 200 points, if I remember correctly, I figure I may as well buy the pack.
Plus, I do love the Think Tank and the Medusa Hair.
I mean, I like and would like to have the whole pack... I'm just a bit torn, because I'm not entirely a fan of the things they are pumping out with some obvious limitations and quirks if they are just going to keep firing and forgetting.
I feel like I want to support them making oddball and unattached costume bits, but I also don't want to support packs that have relatively few options and too many pre-baked color options and problems (without any intention of making things a bit better).

Torn I am.

I'm attempting to not sound overly critical about it all. I just wasn't a fan of decisions made with the Animal Pack, especially concerning some limitations and desired tweaks (that seemed reasonable) and then even more so with the Steampunk Pack (the first pack I did not buy). And then the CoT pack felt even lesser to me. The Barbarian pack won out for me though.
There is excellent work in all of these, but... certain limitations are turning me off.
Which... is okay. I'd just like to feel better about 'em!

True, but it's a bit jarring to see the numbers so clearly represented in-game...

Or just hit the "Clear" Button at the bottom of the screen and it'll give you that plain character we had before this patch.


Some people will like this change, some will not. It's one of those things that one or the other will be on the outs with... However, there are easy ways to avoid any problems with it, beyond one extra click to start things off how you wish.

(Just for the record, I like starting with a clean slate best, but pressing the Clear button is good enough for me)

"Whoa.... Did you see that??"
"What?? I have no eyes!!"
"Some guy just ran buy who had a flesh head!!"
"Weeeeiiiirrrrrrd!!!!"

Oh, man... You're already messing up!!

Haha, that is really terrific!! Congratulations to the both of you.
It is wonderful to make such a connection. I met someone very important to me through a previous video game. And, while we connected intellectually online, it is amazing when it is even stronger in-person.

I love the screenshot and caption!

Keep growing closer to each other and never stop (you don't want to go the other way).
Congratulations and best of luck!

Agreed.
I feel the same way. That's why I'm basing all my purchases on what the items are in their current state and I don't want to reward practices that I'm not in favor of.
Hopefully they'll not neglect fixing things up (past, present and future) just because of the new thing every week goal.
*patiently waits and watches*

Yep, but there's nothing wrong about that, haha. Don't feel anxious.

I started realizing that about some things that would (and then did) come out.
I used to be a bit of a completionist, but a few people have helped me to enjoy seeing the variety spread to the point that people will have things that others won't and that's actually a good thing (for variety's sake... not a have and have-not due to limitations thing).

Until next week?
Haha, just teasing!

Yeah, honestly, I understand. I'm being careful (and even cheap, maybe), because I don't want to say "Sure, just toss it out there and I'll buy it no matter what".

The new thing each week is a nice idea and all... But I want to see a standard of quality.
Honestly, I'm a little disappointed that the base banners have been bugged since the issue's launch.

Bugs do happen and sometimes they take a while to fix (sometimes because they're particularly pesky, other times because they're lower priority), but... We can still voice a bit of disappointment when they do.

Besides Nelson hopping out of Springfield to say "HA HA" and the CoH Team being extra thankful... Nothing happens other than you spending more, in the long run!

Indeed! Me too, hehe.

I'm also thinking about Electric Eyes aura and a Robbie The Robot approach maybe!
