*sniff* I had a character in a Champions RPG game get killed just from the shrapnel of a 16" shell fired by the New Jersey. 16D6 AOE Killing Attack messes up a lot of things, except of course the supermunchkin hero it was aimed at and hit. I didn't bother making a new character for that campaign; the over-the-top nature of the Game Master was just too much.

Maybe YOU don't, but I spend a lot of time in zones. Missions, and the too few map tilesets, are too repetitious (nature of MMOs, sadly), so I do spend some time saving citizens out on the streets. Depending on where, the scenery at least is more varied or at least I can vary it as I see fit. I'd like to see some new store fronts, and I would like to see some more interiors (could have a chance of a robbery taking place INSIDE). But, a guess based on general player chatter, I'm one of the very few that immerses myself into the game world.

Ditto, except since about i6.

I loved the Andorian episodes as well.

I knew they were awesome the first time I heard the Andorians refer to the humans as "pinkskins".

.. got me right there...
Where do I sign?

Truthfully though, CoX does fine for me for the stacked part.


I won't be bothering with it; I prefer a gritty sci-fi game. I'd watch this if it was a TV cartoon, but won't play it as a game.

Expouding on this a little..

Praetoria, being an alternate Earth, could work for this. Jurassik Park could have become a real amusement in that Earth with Hamidon wars releasing the dinosaurs, whether purposely or not.

I want to play a jungle-based character (see avatar ) so more woods/jungle areas in a variety of zones would work (Perez and Eden just doesn't cover enough levels).

Another option could have been a university professor (both sides) that was able to get a limited access time portal and sends volunteers on missions... which leads me to..

Have more spot contacts with missions, like university professers at the university, store clerks having a short mission arc...

and the editor is flaking on me so that's it for anow.

Oh, these things happen.

What also happens, rarely, is bit code changes to programs (BAL, Basic Assembler Language, code) on the fly while the system is up. Just don't tell upper management, they get real uptight about that. I had to make the coding change (it was my program), and the people in Systems checked it with three sets of eyes before their lead made the actual change with me watching.

Then irritate yourself. Travel industry reservations systems have NO scheduled down time. They are up 24/7, barring crashes. We even loaded new software with the system up. Granted, we did it for the airline I worked for during the lowest user load times, but the system did not go down.

A different one each issue so if there is enough issues, all of them.

I disagree. IMO, you should be able to pick a travel power at character creation. I always thought this from the first moment I started playing this game many years ago and it is one of the things I dislike about the game.

Now with it being available at level 4 soon, it won't be quite so bad (I was so glad to get the vet reward to pick a travel power at level 6 instead of level 14).

Having been on Virtue the last 2-3 years looking for RP groups to play with has me come up with a couple of reasons why RP teaming isn't as easy as some believe. Many roleplayers are either in Pocket D emoting or in-character chatting, or are in their own exclusive little circle of friends or SGmates. RP teaming does occur, but the RP PUG teams that I've been on do not last long and the IC chatter sometimes dies out. The few new RP SGs I've seen created are mostly redside, which I'm not all that interested in, are about Arachnos (yuck), or have some sort of demon/angel/angsty theme (double yuck).

As for 50 woes, the incarnate system is not for most of my characters and I really don't like that path after playing it a little. I want more level 50ish (say, 45-50) story arcs, not the one big Incarnate show at the end for every one of my characters. So alting I go.

You guys beat each other up fighting over the redhead; I'll take the blonde, every time.

I took a screenshot of the slider positions and referred to that when making a "new" character. I haven't looked at that since the Save/Load feature was added.

Thanks.

Wish they'd get rid of the recoil part of the animation. Looks silly for the beam to react the way it does with the recoil effect, besides that, energy weapons don't have recoil.

Thanks.

There's not enough jungle girls. I'd love to see a remake of Jana, but <person in jungle> stories do not seem to do well since Tarzan was big many decades ago.

No.

Who'd want a stupid name like that?
