Quote:I was there for a few of those, not sure which ones though.Originally Posted by DreadShinobi
I was there for all those cept for the LGTF I think. Fun times.
Hmm as for me...
Winning my first PvP tournament. Finals were me on my em/elec brute and X on his ice/storm controller against a fire/em blaster (can't remember whos) and Neo's mind/ice dom.
Beating X's ice/storm for the first time on my rad/psy.
Pulling off clutch heals on my emp in any match. Felt so good.
Making people rage in pvp on my fortunata (I was the cool fort that took tough/weave and no one could scratch it
)
Making people rage on my Peacebringer in pvp. And watching people roll PBs trying to copy me.
All of my speed records. I'll always regret not using fraps more, I'm just glad Cam got one of them (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euK0vPcqdjM)
All done before judgment/interface/lore/destiny, and all without use of temps:
14:48 Tin Mage
15:51 Apex
14:43 ITF
27:12 STF
23:43 RSF (7 man)
8:40 Villspec
Getting called elitist trash by Amy for soloing the turrets in lambda (which quickly became the standard way to run lambda on champion)
Nearly soloing a MoLGTF on my fire/em blaster (beat hamidon, and got the Honoree down to popping unstoppable before he ran me dry of insps (this was before judgement/interface etc)) Could probably have done it if I tried again, but soloing TFs was never really my thing.
So much more to mention, but I think alot of things that were amazing in the past just don't have as much meaning now a days so I don't remember alot of stuff. For example way back when doing the RSF in 35 mins was considered hot stuff, now a days thats a joke though. -
Bulwark of Darkness - Tanking LR on a MoSTF on a DM/SD scrapper, tanking Hamidon during an actual raid, tanking AM on a Keyes trial, tanking Tyrant on a Magi trial.

I developed a thick skin about min/maxers from GMing Champions back when it was first released. I made those bas-- players pay for every sleazy disadvantage they took. They rued the day they thought five DNPCs and a vulnerability to wood were workable.
Oh, and I have always thought ED was a good idea. I don't have an opinion about the PVP changes, as I don't have a dog in that fight. So to speak.
Me: Okay...what's the ground like?
GM: Huh? The ground?
Me: Yes, what is the ground composed of.
GM: Well you're outside, dirt, soil, rocks, the standard.
Me: Okay, I'm going to do a massive upheaval of the earth in a 30' radius around me leaving a platform that is 3' wide.
GM: ...I hate you...
The following rounds got worse. He asked me to never make a character like that again. I took him up on it, as that character was mostly to see what I could do with it. The best part was that another one of our players could make himself into the Juggernaut. Fastball Special? We had Operation Meteor. *chucks him into the atmosphere then guide him to the proper target as he fell down* Okay, villain base is gone. Who is up for beers? Actually the entire hero group was pretty nuts. The first villain we fight we scared him into joining our group because we were crazier than he was. We forced a hero name on him and he "joined". -

In game stuff:
I routinely absorb alpha's on pretty much any character I have when the tanks are too slow or want to herd EVERY SINGLE MOB. Once they see my trick arror defender or traps corr taking over the role they think only they have a right to have, they usually whine and rage quit - much to the gratitude of the rest of the team who likes the faster pace I create.
Good times. I will surely miss this game. -

Bulwark of Darkness- Dark/Shield/Fire scrapper. Oh man, when shield first came out I was goin' over all the power choices and dark just seemed to pair so well with shield. And was I ever right! I burned so many respects on this toon I ended up having to buy recipes to keep tweaking his build. The end result is pretty crazy and I'm insanely proud of it. I love scrapper and I always had a hard time rolling up a new one after this toon, I would keep comparing this toon to the new one and I'd want to go back to Bulwark to trash more stuff. I mean tanking MoSTFs, tanking Hami raid, heck this toon has done it all.
Mistress Hellflame- Ah my beloved Fire/Dark/Dark corr. It's very busy and active play style but jeez do I love it. Seeing a large amount of mobs stuck in tar patch and rain of fire brings an evil gleam to my eye. Or if I debuff their tohit enough I'll dive in and fire off soul drain also to really wreak some havoc.
Focused Psyche- I always wanted a ranged toon but no mez protection bugged me. But then a friend showed me what fortunatas were all about and jeez are they awesome. Moderate damage, insanely high defenses where you just have to stand next to someone to get them more than halfway to softcap and some controls? This toon was my official badge toon, not sure why I decided that.
Honorable Mention- Liquidate Claws/Nin stalker, Titan Valkyrie Titan/WP scrapper, Hydrokinetic Water/MM blaster, Lilith Ascended Mind/Fire dom, Umbral Eve dark/dark dom, Military Law soldier of arachnos -

Holy cow! -
I joined CoH back on June 4, 2007. I do not regret a second of it. A friend of mine pushed me to play it as I was looking for a new game at the time. So I hit up the local Gamestop and pick up a Good vs Evil bundle. I come home and install it. One long installation later I'm finally in Atlas Park on a Spines/Regen scrapper. He's since been long retired and alted over to a Dark/Shield as my main but my Spines is still sitting there in retirement.
Ever since then I've laughed, cried, gotten angry, laughed, made sarcastic posts, scrapperlocked, laughed and today I'm literally at a loss for words. As Cobalt so eloquently put it, City of Heroes became less of a game and more of it provided me with friends and people I consider family. It's funny to think that I picked Champion server on a whim. I was scrolling through the server selection when I first logged on. I didn't want a red server as those always had lag issues. I see Champion sitting at a nice healthy yellow glow. The best server in CoH I can say without a doubt and I'm happy I made that decision. I've met some of the best people I've known there which leads me to super groups.
There is one super group that once I found it would be my home and my family. Renaissance de la Veritas. Once I was in there I knew I had found home. The entire SG was a blast and because of them they made CoH that much better for me. I would start to list them all but to be honest I would probably forget a few so I'll just that I love all of you guys. But at the heart of the SG is Amy, she really brought it all together. She'll always be one of my best friends and there's no way I can thank her enough for bringing me in. The Stoned Templars is another group that I really can't go without mentioning also, a very good group of people and I'll be sad to see them go.
Also brings me to Cobalt Azurean, friend and enemy to a lot of people. But I won't lie, I consider him a brother. People made fun of me for sticking up for him while basically in the wolves den at certain points but y'know I'd do it all over again. Cobalt, stay true, stay blue. /e brofist
So as my little spiel slowly comes winding down, all I can say is that I'm still in shock over the suddenness of this. It's unrealistic for me to hope that it changes but I also hate to give up hope. So until the doors of Paragon City close, I'll be there, saving the world with my friends. -

Quote:There has been talk of Spielberg possibly taking it over. *crosses fingers*Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
Yeah, re-makes can be a good thing. Like the Amazing Spiderman, which was much better than the old Spiderman movie. Quite possibly because it didn't have Toby 'One Face' Maguire in it...
But......eeeugh....Hollywood is more stagnant than a mouldy swamp in a bad B movie now...
Still not as bad as Bayformers 4 will be, though ¬¬ -
*looks at the next Ninja Turtles movie, lets out a slow sigh and walks away slowly*
How the pancake does Michael Bay keep getting work? Really? He has the freakin' touch of death on movies. I can literally count on one hand how many of his films I'd consider actually enjoyable... -
Well the way I figured out Hybrid was by going the definition, Genesis is the light of creation. The light part may not fit in so lets just with creation. What can we create?
We can already create allies with lore, although lore is the history of what we fought and now call their essence to fight for us. Interface, when going over the definition the one I found the most fitting is the facts, problems, considerations, theories, practices, etc., shared by two or more disciplines, procedures, or fields of study: the interface between chemistry and physics. IE your attack did this before, now using interface it does this and this. Judgement is easy to figure out, and the judge rules smite. Destiny is a bit more odd with it's naming but going along with it's meaning, a foretold event to take place, so you create/alter destiny with this power, (higher tiers means your further altering the path). Hybrid I figured out long ago what it was before it came out, hybrid, combining two unlike things, what seemed most likely were AT effects, that's what we got.
What makes genesis so hard for me to figure out is the insanely broad definition. Genesis, the creation, coming into being, the origin. Perhaps origin is the keyword? Maybe the Genesis of our character is what we're looking for? Maybe themed genesis powers based on origins? Circling back to creation, there are so many possibilities of what we could create that I find it incredibly hard to think of what it could be. Now one thing I did think of was Posi talking about the temp power bar and how it'd be used when we used alternate forms/piloted/temps/etc. We already know khelds use said bar for their alternate forms, what if Genesis is literally creating a new form for ourselves? Grow giant? Pilot a mecha? Transform into some beast/form/etc. that's grandiose and comes with it's own powers? But all just conjecture.
Edit: Although now that I think about it more, a transformation power seems more likely to be in vitae if by going the definition and the course of incarnates scaling up the higher the trees go. -
Some alterations, this is assuming you go the mile for your builds for accolades and at least an alpha.

1.To ninja run and combat jumping, no, they don't want the purchase travel powers to totally replace actual power pools, so incredibly unlikely to happen.
3. wat, you can easily get 5 stacks in 20 seconds. What is this I don't even...
And most of all, why is this in the beta forums? This has nothing to do with beta. This should go in the requests section. -
My vote is for Positron, all those poor heroes pummeled and he stands there watching, unhelping simply because it does not net him any xp.

Ahem.
I have villain characters. Have since CoV launch, thank you very much. The Arachnos-trained assassin, the unwitting demon summoner taken over by her charge, etc. etc. I sympathize with the villain lobby, certainly.
Will some people be able to "conceptualize" a fugly, dirty hockey mask and chainsaw into a kitty-saving hero? Absolutely. Thus is the power of this community and the imagination of superpowered fans.
However, will the vast majority of everyone else make Jason Voorhees and Casey Jones? Yes. Overwhelmingly yes.
Mad Max: Crazy dude with a gun.
Ash: Crazy dude with a bigger gun. (Don't get me wrong, I love Bruce Campbell. Marvel Zombies appearance notwithstanding, Ash is not a superhero. He's a heroic character. There's a difference.)
Casey Jones: Stoner with a hockey stick who somehow manages not to get killed fighting ninjas.
Jason Voorhees: Badly psychologically damaged serial killer with mommy issues and a big knife who hunts white people who act like they, too, are mentally damaged.
Maybe I'm having a crisis of inspiration because of my recent glut of well-conceived magical/technologic/science-based character creation and my creative juices are momentarily tapped, but I stand by these costume themes as not the best use of Dink's significantly amazing design abilities.
"Well, Timmy, you can have any super power you want! You can fly, set people on fire, move stuff with your mind! What do you want to do?"
"I wanna crawl through a dumpster and hit things with a golf club!"
...works better if it were released during the Halloween event. This is a "Zombie Invasion Survival" set, if anything. -
OMG DO LIKE. You've made me so happy, Dink!
