I would want to see ranged powers (Electrical, Energy, Fire, Ice, Radiation, & Sonic) to have animations added so they can be fired from either a tech looking laser pistol, magic looking wand/staff or a tech looking rod, in addition to the original animations.
It doesnt need to happen all at once, they can slowly be converted.
Super Strength Knockout Blow & Foot Stomp to have the Thunder Strike animation added. -
Quote:* Add a small recovery component (wouldn't need to be big AT ALL to be valuable)
* Possibly turn it into a floatie, like FFG.
I would love to see the Triage Beacon get a recovery bonus, & would like the Tree of Life to get a small +Damage Resistance bonus added to it (like the Devouring Earth Cairns get). -

The CrossGen characters would be better under a separate imprint, instead of having Quesada shoehorn them into the Marvel Universe.
But having them back in an altered form is better than not having them at all; hopefully they wont change the personalities of the characters too much. -

Quote:WHY? Why charge extra for booster packs when all you're doing is creating costumes? If anything, it be more publicity to buy the actual pack in game if they give all the costume parts with the standard pack. You make a really cool costume that uses a ninja helmet or the magic collar cape and try to load the costume into the game but find you need the pack, how many do you think would finally give in and just buy the packs for their account?
Not to mention, I already bought most of those packs. I'd be a bit annoyed if I had to basically buy them again.
PS: the free 'lite' version can hold back the power customization, cape, aura, unlockable weapons/costume parts and booster pack parts as well as any DLable stuff released later and the ability to save costume/characters for use by the actual game. That's still sufficient content that would warrant actually purchasing this app if it were ever made.
I was looking at it from the standpoint of putting more money in NCsoft/Paragon Studios pockets, but your idea is better & more customer friendly.
I hope they implement it. -
Even if it’s a standalone creator that doesn’t synch to the game it could still be successful.
And I would recommend going the add-on pack route.
Example of store listing:
Apps for the Iphone & Ipod Touch 2nd gen.
Character Creator Lite - Free
(Free App with limited features/costumes to get people hooked on using the app)
Character Creator Full Version - $9.99
The Add-on packs listed below require purchase of CC Full Version:
CC Add-on pack: Super Booster I: Cyborg $1.99
CC Add-on pack: Super Booster II: Magic $1.99
CC Add-on pack: Super Booster III: Superscience $1.99
CC Add-on pack: Super Booster IV: Martial Arts $1.99
CC Add-on pack: Wedding Pack $1.99
CC Add-on pack: App Store Combo Pack #1 $1.99
(** contains Justice/Sinister & Valkyrie costume pieces)
Edit: The bracket () description on the CC Lite above wouldn’t appear in the store listing (obviously). -

"Once Upon A Time In Texas" Promo Video

This is a Tech based control set for Controllers & Dominators where all the powers (except the pet) are fired from an Assault Rifle to avoid redraw.
It also provides a different feel from the other control sets (e.g. High Tech Hunter instead of Superpowers) and can be used with a wide range of roleplaying themes (crime fighting Inventor, gadget using Soldier/Vigilante/Bounty Hunter/Mercenary).
Looking at the other controller powersets, they are generally broken down into this format:
Foe Immobilize
Foe Hold
AoE Foe Immobilize
AoE Foe Disorient
AoE Foe Hold
Pet
Other powers that are included in some of the sets:
AoE Foe Slow
AoE Foe -To Hit
Damage Mitigation: Either Sleep, Confuse, Fear, or Location Knockback
Using that as a guide I came up with this:
Synaptic Shutdown: Ranged, Moderate DoT (Energy), Foe Immobilize
Riot Control: Ranged, Moderate DoT (Energy), Foe Hold
Wide Area Web Grenade: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Foe: Immobilize -Recharge -Fly
Fog of War: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Foe - To Hit, -Perception, -Defense
Glue Grenade: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Foe -Speed, -Recharge
Concussion Blast: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Knockback, Disorient
Chemical Warfare: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Minor DoT (Toxic), Foe Hold
Friendly fire: Ranged (Cone), Foe Confuse
Mobile Armored Support: Summon Robotic Automaton
New powers would be Synaptic Shutdown, Riot Control, Fog of War, Concussion Blast, Chemical Warfare, Friendly fire & Mobile Armored Support.
Powers that deal damage: Synaptic Shutdown (Single Target, Moderate), Riot Control (Single Target, Moderate), Chemical Warfare (AoE, Minor DoT), Mobile Armored Support (Pet))
Glue Grenade exists as a PPD power & Wide Area Web Grenade exists as a Soldier of Arachnos power.
Synaptic Shutdown is a dart that is fired into your opponent & it emits an energy pulse that disrupts a body’s nervous system, temporarily immobilizing them. It also disrupts the electrical systems of a machine.
Riot Control is a more powerful version of the Synaptic Shutdown power which causes an overload that temporarily incapacitates the target.
Fog of War launches a military issue non-lethal gas canister into the midst of your enemies that envelops them in a corrosive chemical cloud that obscures the vision of the targets & lowers their defense.
Concussion Blast is a shell that is fired at long range from your weapon. The force from this explosion will disorient & knockback targets caught within the affected area. (This power deals no damage.)
Chemical Warfare is a canister that is launched towards your enemies that upon impact envelops them in a noxious gas cloud, rendering them helpless and does damage over time.
Friendly fire is a device that emits a pulse that disrupts the neural net of all enemies caught in the beam, causing confusion in their ranks; unable to tell friend from foe they will fire upon one another. (Extremely Long Recharge)
The Mobile Armored Support is a high tech unmanned all-terrain battlefield platform.
Ideas for how it looks.
Like all other Controller pets it cannot be controlled by the caster once summoned; this machine has 3 ranged attacks, 2 post death special powers, & no melee attacks.
The pet is generic enough to be used in either a Hero powerset or Villain powerset.
When the Mobile Armored Support is destroyed it explodes damaging nearby enemies & reassembles into 3 extremely fragile Nanobots.
Mobile Armored Support powers:
Burst: Ranged, Moderate DoT (Lethal), Foe -DEF
Slug: Ranged, High (Lethal), Foe Knockback
M30 Grenade: Ranged, Targeted AoE, Moderate (Lethal/Smash), Foe Knockback
Explode: Post death special (AoE, Lethal/Fire)
Resistance: Auto, *Res to All * Vulnerable to Energy & EMP attacks
Nanobot Assembly: Post death special
When the Mobile Armored Support is destroyed some of its parts can reassemble into 3 fragile Nanobots that are 2 levels less than you.
Nanobot powers:
Mini Burst: Ranged, Minor DoT (Lethal), Foe -DEF
Micro Synaptic Shutdown: Ranged, Minor DoT (Energy), Foe Immobilize
Resistance: Auto, Self, Vulnerabilities
These Nanobots are weakly resistant to sleep & lethal damage, and they are extremely vulnerable to all other forms of damage.
The Nanobot powers are weaker versions of Burst & Synaptic Shutdown.
The idea for Explode is inspired by the Sky Raiders Jump Bot Incinerator & the Nanobots are inspired by the gears that spawn after a Clockwork Prince is defeated.
If the consensus of the forums is that 2 post death powers is too much, then I can lose the Explode power. -
