And only one 4 posts here in the Dev section. Isn't the point of all this so that he could *Frequently* post here?

There are thread of 90 some odd pages...begging for a response from him.

And I don't think 114 post from him is all that frequently.

Right... Maybe he should call you daily? Would that make you feel better?

Here's my concern. (Note that it's a concern and not an issue. A concern is what you fear may happen. So don't jump down my throat.)

I'm concerned that the game is moving further away from a comic book background and into a more traditional MMORPG character based system. Although I'm enjoying the game, I still think they have a way to go to capture the feel of a comic book. Purposely making this game "unique" will not help them to reach that lofty goal.

Again, this is only a concern. They may be able to pull it off. But I think Cryptic should realize that myself at least will watch very carefully where this goes.

BTW, as a side note, I've been a bit perturbed by how people who voice any negative opinions on Issue #3 have been summarily beaten down by fervent fans. Cryptic needs to hear both the positive and negative, as long as it's done in a constructive manner.

An A for effort, but exploiters will be exploiters.

This is sarcasm, right? I mean, you can't be serious... right???

Gang,
I'm holding off on touching Super Strength until we tackle a somewhat greater issue with Tankers - namely that they lack that "comic book feel." Specifically, you'd like to see Super Strength be something somewhat, well, "Hulk-ish." But currently, Super Strength is a poor cousin to Scrapper powers - which seems somewhat out of place. Don't worry - what we're looking at as a fix for ALL Tankers addresses this issue.

This is great and right on the money!
