Ghost

It was all a plot to free up the abreviation GR for Going Rogue instead of GhostRaptor!

Give the cities that feeling that they are alive, then I can feel that I accomplish something with each generic mission, as the city would keep growing...

[/ QUOTE ]
I agree with this.

Of these three, I only find the middle one a good one for covered eyes.
The other two are just.. cheap to draw comic that became a style. You'll notice this as the white will move along with the facial features and is actually covering ON the eyes instead of over them.. must be hell to blink when you have eyelashes, which most of us do.

That said, though I dislike the style as in my book it just doesn't make sense (for the above reason) there are those that like the style (a friend of mine being one of them) I think the option of having single colour eyes would be nice.
Though to get away from the face paint, they'd need to add texture and depth to the excisting masks to counter that side of the complaint, but that's not really mentioned afterwards, just the eye-less eyes.

Another possible opening, if there is no PC acting as bartender, is to ask how you're supposed to get a drink out of the crazy dancing person.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh gods.. please don't tell me that's serious...
That's not glossed over to make sense? Does the game have to provide AI interaction for things that are that simple to gloss over? Does a store clerc have to take a bag of stuff from you when you sell things? Does he have to go in the back to get the enhancements you buy?

That's .. that's... that's like stealing from behind the bar and getting away with it in a club that has the best security known! (how else to keep people from fighting their nemesis?)

We still have an office based in England, they'll be looking after the distribution for Going Rogue.



[/ QUOTE ]

So I guess we can take this as confirmation that we will indeed get a boxed version of Going Rogue in the EU?

[/ QUOTE ]
We can take that as a confirmation that they're going to see if it's likely to be profitable for the EU.

Hehehe, those wings DID look awefully familiar!

Both nice pieces!
Though the wings do look... how to say this... cheap.
One layer of feathers just doesn't cut it imo.

One other comment is about the style.
Both pieces are a careful balance of details! There are details here and there, some things seem underdetailed but are not. Well done!


And I know Knightly Defender as well
I think I've met him a few time on Grav Mistress, or maybe Tower of Power.

I think I've maybe had it once or twice in my entire time using the forums but 99% of the time i have no problems and that's across 5 different computers and 2 mobiles with 4 different ISPs.

The problems just seem really random in who they affect

[/ QUOTE ]

Except for FFM. That bug loved him (personally I think he was forging it for the postcount )

[/ QUOTE ]
Like FFM, I have this problem only when I post from work. (and FFM postED a LOT from work). At home, I have no issues. At work, I've frequent forms invalidated.

Edited for current status, and surprisingly, I've had no worries in the 2 posts I've made today... maybe I should post more...

I love getting art of my chars, makes me tingle all over. Especially Sapphic Neko since she's my absolute fave.

[/ QUOTE ]
I know what you mean, I'm quite fond of getting art of my characters too. (my recent contest and 18 DTWT sketches are testament to that)
Just a shame that my main isn't as interesting to draw.
Sapphic has ears, a tail and wings. I think that helps with her being singled out... that and a verbal player

Great one, I love how the hand interacts with the hair. First time I've seen something like that on these boards.

[ QUOTE ]
Wow, very nice.

Well done and draw more please!

[/ QUOTE ]
What she said

[ QUOTE ]
Very impressive, I love the art style, certainly better than anything I could hope to manage. Well done!

[/ QUOTE ]
What he said too!


Yes, I like the style and it's very well done.
It's a simple design, and done elegantly with a bit of naughty too.. no, not so much naughty as such, more.. teasing.

[ QUOTE ]
I think i have a similiar taste with GG.

[/ QUOTE ]
There's the middle line too

[ QUOTE ]
For me always Erotic > Pornographic. Because first one gives more place to reader's/viewer's imagination. Nudity is another matter tho', it can be good or bad depending on your presentation.

[/ QUOTE ]
I agree with this, though I don't mind the pornographic

Oh, and as I haven't commented yet...
The GG colouring is decent. Not great, but not bad either. If I could colour like that, I would be pleased.

[ QUOTE ]

And as for fitting, I mean the sense of 'oh god will we make it?' which makes zombie stuff more fun.
If you can just go in, blast off some powers and wipe them all out in seconds - well, where's the challenge, the fun?

[/ QUOTE ]
Are we talking about new zombies that'll be weak? Or are we talking about the zombies already in game that area challenging at their own levels? Vahzies, Banished Pantheon and the zone spawn zombies? Zone spawn Zombies are particularly tough.

Why try and make the game fit the setting, if you can tweak the setting a little to fit the game?
Make new zombies if you want, make them tough, make them numerous, make them slow or fast. Change the enemies, but why change the characters that people like to play?


This whole suggestion sounds to me like "this is cool in game X, we should have it here" while game X works because it's game X on that concept, implementing it here with the numerous game altering changes makes no sense to me. If you want game X, why not play that?

Last 2 or 3 thursdays there haven't been many showing up. Last time it was just me for the hour I waited.
I think it's dwindled out early :<

I interrupt this thread with a special service announcement.

FFM would like to bring you this linky

[ QUOTE ]
Nah, not neccersarily saying l4d, just some stuff that would make the game more interesting, challening and fitting... It's generic zombie stuff =D

[/ QUOTE ]
Ah, make the SUPERhero into a zombie survivor hero(ish?) would be making this SUPERHERO game more fitting?

[ QUOTE ]
Love the idea of a zombie zone! Awesome.

Needs a few things zone-only things could be incorperated to add to the tension;

A zone-wide endurance, regeneration and healing debuff, maybe even minor power weakening or (if it were an old version of a pocket D area, with broken mechanics) random 'surges' of power dampening - makes it harder to survive onslaughts for long periods of time, makes the rest of this more vital;


No insp drops on zombies


Clickies such as food stands and medical supply closets which allow instant buffs or give you insps


Other clikies give temporary power 'pickups' such as shotguns, gumballs and other random weapons that don't require end to use, but only have one or two uses and cant be used outside the zone.
Maybe a cap of 4 of these items...

[/ QUOTE ]
Well, if we're incorporating Left 4 Dead in CoH, I want my Master of Orion zone! (1 or 2, preferably, not 3 that was too micro managed)

[ QUOTE ]
+1

[/ QUOTE ]
I aprove of your avatar

that'd be "when people head to bed", generally speaking.
So rough estimation would place that around 3am, though I think that up to midnight it'll be busiest

[ QUOTE ]
See, this is what Posi should have said! Nice one War Witch, they should make you official Spokesperson too!

[/ QUOTE ]
Would that have prevented all those 'i leave' topics?

[/ QUOTE ]
Personally? I think it would have limited the number of them.
If some "this is what we're doing" had been added, then I think it would have stopped most of them.

But as you say in a different way, that is hind sight.

They should leave the speeches to you, your better at them.

This is why we love War Witch.
War Witch for president!

[/ QUOTE ]
I'd have worded this differently, but... I agree with this whole heartedly!

That's what a 5th anniversary speech should be like!

awww threw toys out the pram did we cos something isnt being done to make things better for you

If you have nothing worthwhile to say then it would be better to say nothing..

Indeed...

remember back in i13 pvp changes u made the same statement

[/ QUOTE ]He does have a point there....



Any way, just going to take some time to write up a little something.

I think that something said in an other thread is rather true.
I think a lot of vets have been bored with this game, no matter how much they love it. I'm one of them.
I think a fair few vets are disgruntled at the treatment of NCSoft Europe's staff with the creation of NCSoft West (I'd say merger, but it doesn't feel like they 'merged' anything other then Avatea into the new fold).
I think a fair few vets have become disgruntled at some of the Dev decissions over the years. ('Ham fisted sollutions to exploits, limited bug fixes' I believe someone said)
I know a fair few vets are disgruntled at Positron's performance and announcement decissions. (both time and what's in it)

I think, for most of those leaving, it was just the drop that filled the bucket and they've decided to cancel after all.

iirc, 8pm server time is 9pm UK time, thus being 10pm EU time.

Alex, I wish you the best of luck and happiness. In all you do and undertake.
You're up there in my Hall of Fame of favourite people I only barely know. (and that barely knowing is my fault)

So, from teh other Ghost on the forum,

Salute!

I can see this being a devastating blow to the RP society. Will you be taking ShadowGhost with you?

My accounts don't end till later this year, october or something.
So I'll stick around for a while longer.

That said, I've not logged in much this last month, and am on a semi-break.
