And they should not balance it around soloing pylons.

Soloing Hamidon is a much more accurate measure of powerset balance.

Who's first?

"English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar."

So as a Villain, you could do a Rogue alignment Tip. I don't recall if this requires teaming, or if you can do it on your own.

But he also tells Bruce "I've stitched you up. I've set your bones. I'm not going to bury you." (apologies if the quote is innacurate). This, in my mind, is a failure to keep another promise.

Would love to see "The Running Man" filmed even remotely faithfully to the book. Richards (in the book) is a real underdog, a man who is literally at the end of his rope. A man desperate enough to take any shot, even if it's being "the sucker in a rigged game." (I hope that quote is correct).

I'm a big fan of King, but his Bachman books have a darkness all their own.

"Recall" centers around implanted memories (in the book, one of these is being a government agent) which may or may not be real.

"Bourne" is a story about an amnesiac secret agent (in the book, shot in the head) trying to recover his lost memories.

Personally don't see one as inspiration for the other. YMMV.

BTW, had to check dates on the written versions. "We Can Remeber it for You Wholesale" (if there is anyone out there who is not aware, "Total Recall" was very loosely based on this P.K. Dick story) was published in 1966, "The Bourne Identity" in 1980. I had always assumed Ludlum's work was much older.

Fixed that for you. I have personally seen both used multiple times.

Possibly his pre-GR bio, before the major Praetorians were retconned?

Fixed that for you.

Yes, you made up your mind before wrote the OP. That's the one thing you've said that I comepletely agree with.

Except for the in-combat defense buff. Not as large as the out-of-combat buff, but it is there.

I've played several stealthy characters, and can't recall any of my teammates having an issue with my transparency. Perhaps you play with people who see (pardon the pun) things differently.

Please cite your sources proving a) we are all male, b) males like stealth more than females. Also, stressing the word "boys" as you do could be taken as insulting; in the context of your post, it seems to be used to indicate immaturity.

Hmmm, so are you saying that an in-combat defense buff (which CD provides) =/= an in-combat defense? Not sure what your definition is.

But even if you do read this, you seem to have made up your mind, and will not be swayed by facts. So be it. To borrow an old adage, there are none so blind as he who will not see.

Dare I hope that this will fix the problem of previously purchased items still showing the"buy now" button?

I shouldn't, but hope springs eternal.

How...

How...

How dare you confuse this issue by introducing FACTS??!?

Don't you know that discussion of power selection/slotting can ONLY be based on hearsay, rumor, idle speculation, and bald-faced lies??!?

I kid, I kid

Seriously, anyone know offhand what the actual numbers are "out of combat" vs "in combat"?

It's a definite maybe. Still waiting on the "brain slug" shoulder pet that was in the concept art for the Retro SciFi Pack.

Ok, I've read your post twice over, and I fail to see how you are "forced" to take this power. If you don't like it, feel it's useless, etc, then take a different power. Sure, you'll be losing a LotG mule, but if your toon lives or dies based on one 7.5% global recharge, then your build has deeper issues. IMO, of course.

I need to add this to my CoX Forum drinking game rules... "Whenever a post begins by saying 'I've been (doing X) for (amount of time)' take a drink."

Welcome to the Internet! We hope you enjoy your stay!

No, we voted for a Post-Apocalyptic set. Casey Jones is not, to my knowledge, part of such a setting.

Screams "comic book" to me, and that's what I want out of this game setting. Comic Book =/= Superhero.

Dismissive of a significant part of the player base. Nice. And that's 3 for 3 on Casey Jones.

And how many of them are "poor widdle willians"? (see above)

Wow. All this AND time to conduct a comprehensive survey of the player base to determine what the majority will do. Where do you find enough hours in the day?

Too bad you're tapped out. Otherwise you might come up with some well-conceived magical/technologic/science-based character creations that utilize this new set.

Please wait patiently, this is a Work In Progress (WIP).

Personally, I like what I've seen so far. Thanks, Dink!

Q: How did the Hipster burn his tounge?

A: He was eating soup before it was cool.
