VIP In Training.

VIPIT!

I like the cut of your concept's jib, Chase.

Seriously, how many of you remember a few years back when Superman's powers went all energy based, then he was split into a Red and Blue Superman? Anyone? C'mon, let's get those hands up! Okay, you...you...a few of you. Great. That's good to see.

Yeah THAT'S the kind of thing that would be fun to play...like if my main went from Electrical Blaster to Electric Melee, or Electric Tank! 'Course I can *play* both Blasters and Tanks, though I'm a little better with the Tanks, and I'm finding myself not bad with Scrappers, and for a game that encourages alts I'm sure a lot of us can handle many ATs quite well.

But that would mean I'd have MANY sets and various Enhancements that just wouldn't work anymore, and if you want to go from "Class" to "Class", I think it should be treated as a complete rebuild of your character from Level 1.

'Course the argument against IMHO is that the only reason not to build a new but similar character (ex: My Tank "Superman" is now joined on Guardian by my Blaster "Electric Superman") is that you want to be able to keep "all your stuff". A valid point, to be sure, but with our account-wide Veterans Rewards and the new ease of transferring Inf without needing a third party negates much of that.

So yeah...Devs'll say no, playerbase will (likely) say collectively "no" as well. There's really no need, just make a new character and it becomes an RP issue at that point.

Didn't mean to get all mushy there. Back to your original question...

Um...I'm going with "he's constipated".

Hi, Pacur! I'm GL. I will neither comment nor apologize for anything currently involving my namesake currently at the cinema.

I've been playing since we moved to Atlanta post-Katrina from New Orleans. About a month and a half later the wife joined up as well ("You want your own account? Seriously??") but is currently elsewhere in the 'Worlds' Most Popular MMO. I say goofy things, agree a lot, and sometimes I'm actually funny.

Welcome back. Pie are good.

That, plus a million-billion.

(I'm hoping he chooses Captain Chaos...)

My wife and I are right there with ya, Gale. Six years for us both, and while we didn't meet in-game we DID meet online. So good for ya there, too!

See you around the servers...

QFT! I'm still trying to get over the whole "DC Comics non-reboot/reboot" myself. Oy...

That's right, DC Comics has made this nice Catholic boy Jewish. My mom will be so proud.

My first character, and only 50, is a born-and-raised Galaxy City boy. This is gonna make Johnny Lightning sad...then angry.

Then he's going to become Parallax.

Oh carp...

Oh yeah. That. Yeah I'm REALLY unhappy about that. Seriously I thought that the Lois/Clark marriage was the smartest, most mature thing they'd done with the character in years. Now he's gonna get snuggly with Wonder Woman? Man, didn't John Byrne already show that was too obvious of an idea?

"OMD" indeed!

That LITERALLY made me LOL. Thank you, Dark One.

(boy I bet you love hearing THAT, don't ya?)

Now THAT is the opinion of a trustworthy source. Thanks for tossing out your two cents.

*power-rings giant high-five for Sho*

BTW I was surprised when the wife said she wanted to see "Thor", and though I'm not the biggest fan of Marvel's version I certainly know about him and enjoyed the film overall, so I appreciate the comparison. You're also not the only person who's commented about the 3D being more impressive in "GL" than "Thor".

*ahem*, BrandX.

Okay, I haven't seen it yet, but certainly SOME of us nerdy enough to have their own power batteries and rings (yes I do) are usually okay if they get the idea down right.

Organic vs Mechanical Web-Shooters? Who cares? Spider-Man shoots webs. If he shoots them organically, it gives him one more thing to need to control and potentially be embarrassed by. If they're mechanical, there's a greater option for drama when the mechanism jams up or the web fluid runs dry...and of course that's the way it was originally written...but it ALSO brings up the problem of why Peter Parker never became a scientist with 3M. A kid like that machining wrist mounted spritzers that create a solid elastic that dissolves in an hour? The kid would be a millionaire many times over.

Back to "Green Lantern". I can nitpick about how the lanterns and rings "don't look right" in the movie. They don't...it's not and never has been how they've been drawn in the comics or in any animation. Doesn't matter...they still got the idea across. Power batter + power ring = Green Lantern powers. Spider-Man "spins a web, any size. Catches thieves, just like flies." Both ideas still work.

Please accept this as a tounge-in-cheek "neener".

Aside from that, I'll freely admit I'll have a hard time removing my personal bias to give an objective review on the film overall. Rest assured, CoX faithful, that I WILL chime in.

Word.

"I AM ATROCITUS! I TOO WISH FOR A POWER RING EACH TIME I HEARD THE SAME EXCUSES. I TOO COULD HAVE MY OWN CORPS! GRRRRR!"

I'd buy that book.

I thought it was "Olive Juice".

Absolutely. I lost most interest in "V" this season. I have 9 of the 10 eps on the DVR and have been in no rush to watch them yet.

Multi-month breaks kill show momentum. It's that simple. Quit doing it if youu want a show to have any kind of audience.
