*check off a mark* Aaaand that's the 7643 time this has been suggested. I'm not saying it's a bad idea, cause it isn't. It's actually a good idea. Just that it's been suggested many, many times before.
Also, shouldn't this be in Suggestions and Ideas? -
Is this a hint at a future moon zone??

Quote:Wow...And you can use CoX's Unicode support to make chat binds to have your characters say things in Russian using Cyrillic -- 'Готовый!' with the thumbs-up emote replacing the standard F7 'Ready!' bind, 'Привет!' to greet someone joining a team, 'Поздравления!' when someone dings instead of 'grats', etc.; I've used this on all of my characters that have ex-Russian or -Soviet backgrounds -- Yadernii Ogon, Ogon Moroza, Komandyr, Tenevoy Ogon, Zvukovaya Radiatsya, Ledyanoy Kulak, Stalnaya Deva, and others.
It's also entertaining to use real Russian research institutions in character backgrounds, such as the I. M. Sechenov Institute of Evolutionary Physiology and Biochemistry (Институт эволюционной физиологии и биохимии им. И.М.Сеченова), which give all kinds of interesting opportunities for various origins. And with no canon to contradict anything, you have an open field to create individual heroes and villains as well as groups for more background detail -- 'Народная Армия' ('People's Army', one of the state-sponsored hero teams), 'Красная Угроза' ('Red Menace', villain), and 'Генерал Зима' ('General Winter', villain), for example.
I just generally call my teammates "comrade" and denounce all the villains as running dog capitalists... I'm not sure how good I'd be at all that unicody bindy stuff. -

My CoV b-day is the day CoV came out. November sometime, right?

I've known this ever since she borrowed money to buy a drink in Pocket D and then didn't pay me back.
So not only is she a villain, she's also a deadbeat!
You hear that WW? You still owe me $3.57! -
Quote:If you were considering getting me a Christmas gift, that would be it.'Brax, we'll likely find out at the same time. My VR page is showing April 27 for the 72 month reward.
On a side note, I was browsing Hasting's Bookstore and found a book I'm going to have to buy several copies of for gifts.
Looks like an engaging read. -

I like finding stuff before it's popular and enjoying it and telling people how awesome it is. I look like I'm really hip to finding new cool stuff that way.
I remember watching South Park with a friend during the first season before it became all popular. -
Quote:Couldn't disagree more. No wait... there, I disagreed a tiny bit more.as nice as it is..i think it was a big waste of time.
the game is in a huge lull and i think they could have done something better with their time then give a buncha shadows to a 6 year old game with a dwindling playerbase
the % of people who will actually use ultra mode is so low i really cant believe they think it was a good idea.
there are people who still cant play in grandeville for crying out loud cause its too laggy.
But I guess every thread has to have at least one "doom" post, it seems to be the supreme law of MMOG forums. -

My vet rewards screwed up a while back and I had to file a ticket to get my 42 month reward. I was then owed my 45 month reward at the end of last month, but it looked like I wasn't going to get it. But now I've got my 45, 48 and 51 vet rewards! Yay!

Quote:Not only that, but there might be badges for staying a true blue hero, turning to the red side, etc.I was perusing Paragon Wiki and read up on I17, particularly the new badges. I read the part that stated that the new "1,000 badges earned" wouldn't be available until GR, and then it hit me like a brick; My main character and badger Pink Lioness is a hero to the core. In order for her to gain as many more badges as possible, she would have to...
TURN HEEL! Now I'm conflicted. I want her to have those villain side badges, but I don't want to ruin my number one hero by turning her bad just for prideful badge scavenging. What's a man to do

Quote:I saw your loading screens and I knew I wanted some of the screenshots you used for them, so thank you very much!Me? What'd *I* do?
<looks round in panic>
Umm... OK, go for it, do whatever you want with the screens I've posted. Just bear in mind that the loading screen mockups I did are just that, Mockups.
Gimme a sec and I'll dig up some of the other screens I took when putting the loading screens together...
You and bAss_ackwards do very nice work, you're like the top Paragon City photographers! -
What chip you using for that? I'm hoping it runs well on my Intel i5 quad core 2.6 (the Intel "i"s automatically overclock themselves.)

Quote:Do the cars blast more than that one techno beat track?If you think that the sound quality is good now, you should take a peek at the I17 Open Beta. It's not just the graphics that got an overhaul. A lot of things that used to be silent have sounds now, and the quality in general has been improved.
Edit: Can anyone post a YouTube video or something so we can experience the new sounds? -

Keep posting those great screenshots! We'll put up a bunch more tomorrow!
And just so everyone knows, we prefer either screenshots of the environment without a character in it, or a screenshot of a cool character to show off ultra mode features. Screenies of neat Demon Summoners are also welcome!
