  1. I'm looking at it more as a form of map customization - it's not really building your own maps, but it's letting you place and move stuff around on the maps

    I think it'd work a bit like the base editor - when you were wrokign on your arc, you clcik the "edit map" button, which would bring up a view of the map like you view your base, and then you'd select the objects you wanted to put on the map, and if they clashed with anything already on the map, they'd show up as red, and would't be able to be placed.

    Like you want Mole Mahcines on the Atlas Park map for your Nemesis invasion story - so you bring up the Atlas Park map, click "edit map", and from the objects menu, pick a few Mole Machines - you can't place them on City Hall, so they color red when you move them too close to it - but you can place them in the parks or car parks, or in the streets, so they color blue there.

    I think Castle was hired from the playerbase

    I wonder who gets to decide who're the targets for the cleaning?
  5. A smallish thing I'd like to see would be the Safeguard/Mayhem maps lose the Arachnos Flyer - it doesn't fit with the story very often

    EDIT: Maybe it could be the first part of a basic kind of map making - like you can place vehicles on the map yourself, so you could add a Flyer, or Longbow chopper, or PPD wagon to any outdoor AE map?

    GG, you're making us look GOOD

    Actually, I'm making sure you look bad

    See, it's things like that that makes people think you might be leaning slightly more towards naughtiness than hugglesomeness

    Also, if Tyrant is in complete control, then you an only act with his approval - so he must support this too
  8. I think the hospital teleports are mostly just for Heroes - kinda like how in RL anyone can buy and use a bulletproof vest, but it's mostly only the cops that use them becuase they're the ones most likely to need them.
    And for the villains we defeat, we put a tp tag on them, to take them straight to the Zig - it'd take a shorter amount of time than handcuffing them

    Or, the Zig tp can be activated by us when we start a mission, so it'll lock onto the area we're in, like 500 yards all around us, so anyone defeated by us would be picked up by it.

    These, my friend, are freedoms. These are righteous. And these are justice. Join the Resistance, should you wish this. By all means.
    The existence of evil doesn't make it right or just

    Beware to the members of the Resistance, you are considered persona non gratis by the Emperor so nobody will weep when I open you up.
    That sounds like something Doctor Vahzilok would say - I guess he'd feel right at home working for Tyrant

    I cannot fathom why people expend so much energy fighting something because they do not understand it, yet turn a blind eye to the crime and violence in their own backyard.
    We understand Tyrtant all too well - that's his problem

    But it also allows them to be removed.
    If Tyrant was so sure of his popularity, he'd have an election to confirm it - it'd make the Resistance's job much harder if he had popular support - but for some reason, he seems to be election-shy

    Isn't there a bulletproof vest as part of the day job stuff for the cops?

    The fact that people are actually searching on Eggs vs Bacon does surprise me a bit. I am going to have to work on that...


    I mean.....what?
    I'm not sure that's working properly - it looks more like thje 70 most frequent tags, rather than the 70 most searched for ones.

    I think that whole throwing-the-Rikti-motherships-onto-the-suburbs strategy of his might have already lost him some admirers over here

    I'd really like to see that as a feature - although, it might mean team invites comign to you from the other side, even if you weren't in a co-op area
