I don't believe this was mentioned having read the whole thread a long time ago:

Citadel was originally named Bastion. He changed names somewhere around Issue 3, I believe.

[/ QUOTE ]

Much closer to Issue 5, actually. It's in the patch notes somewhere...

My Hero Costume- Hero

And the Robo- Robo

Well, the first pic is just too small, and the second one could stand to be bigger.

Also, uh, what do you want me to do?

Did you know the original Pocket D still exists?
I have a Spine/Dark Scrapper on Victory who's still there.



. . . it's lonely in there.

[/ QUOTE ]

Paragon Dance Party is now officialy closed. There is a homeless guy hanging out by the old enterence in Steel Canyon you tells you to look for Pocket D now.

[/ QUOTE ]

They couldn't actually totally remove the PDP from existance, otherwise any character that was logged off there would be seriously screwed over.

Thus, if you simply parked a character in there and never left, you can continue to rock out in the original Pocket D.

[ QUOTE ]
back in the good old days we didn't have no capes or weapons? the scrappers used to be martial arts, spines, and claws?

the web grenade was horrifically broken in the early days? /dev blasters would kill +8's with just the grenade?

[/ QUOTE ]

Um...how early are we talking here? AFAIK, Scrappers always had the same powersets they have now. The capes part is correct.

And unless I'm missing a piece of CoH history, I think you mean Smoke Grenade.

For the first one (on the right) I balanced out the patterns and colors. On the second (on the left) I reworked it entirely. The capes are a bit cut off, so I'll mention that the left one is fade pattern and the right one has the spikes coming from the bottom.

Just posting to let ya'll know that with the conclusion of my illness, school, and the double XP weekend, I should be finally getting back to designing costumes.

Edit: Attention AlphaFlight - you'll have to rehost that image, your old link doesn't work anymore.

Edit 2:

Guess what, True Believers? I revved up the tunes and got to work tonight!

Vertical_Drop:

I designed these two costumes on the principal that Billy will slowly grow a little darker. Thus, instead of chains, barbed wire. I combined that with the idea of him having a casual outfit (he certainly looks like one to work out).

Mr_Dog:

The first came out a little monochromatic, but tweaking it should produce something good. In contrast, I went all out on the second one, theorizing that perhaps all the spikes boost his radio communications or are what allows him to stabilize ion clusters to form bubbles.

Here's hoping from me too. Not only have I used NoFuture for story arc info, it's an excellent resource for on the quick powerset info for both players and mobs.

Slightly off topic, Posi, but can I request one little "feature"?

When you kill a Portal (ie, Rikti or Behemoth) can it automatically nix any remaining enemies that came from it? It's very annoying to destroy the thing only to have 0 XP enemies still hanging around. This would potentially fix the odd risk/reward curve on these things.

1 Dominator - like i mentioned before, the immbolize trick can help, plus they have secondary attacks that do decent damage and can knock toggle (reference to the updated toggle dropping list posted after i7)

[/ QUOTE ]

From what I personally thought and understood, toggle dropping powers do not apply in PVE (possibly unless specifically mentioned in the text, like the Nullifier Gun).

Heh. Thanks.

I was actually trying a lot of those corners, but apparently never tried the right one.

And that also explains the strange music files I came across. >>


Edit: Also, those Arachnos Warhead Drones are freakin' nasty, yet extremely cool looking. Does anyone know if they appear anywhere else?

[ QUOTE ]
Though I'm not really asking for directions or anything, I'd like to know... how is the area hidden? Hole in the wall? In a ceiling? Fake wall (looks solid but can be walked through)? Just a really obscure path?

[/ QUOTE ]

Someone in Grandville told me that it was found through a marked door (similar to how the Monkey Fight Club is marked), but I saw no such thing in the tunnels, so...

[ QUOTE ]
I found the room as well, but i dont wanna give the locaton either, it more fun when you find it on your own.

[/ QUOTE ]

Says you. My 1 and 1/2 hours of looking say otherwise for me.

Could I, if not everyone, got some kind of helpful hint? I don't want to beg for exact instructions, but I really don't feel like combing all of Grandville.

There's a somewhat Y-shaped tunnel that goes like this:
<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre>
The Fab
|
|
|
North Dock |
|_________________|
|
|
|
|
"The Core"
</pre><hr />

I searched through that tunnel system several times and found zip. Unless there's some secret dance I have to do in front of the right NPC down there...

[ QUOTE ]
After some digging around in the tunnels I came across a secret office beneath Grandville complete with creepy sounds.

Entrance

Secret underground office?

I dont want to spoil the fun by posting the exact location
(let me know if the links dont turn out right, I'm a forum n00b)

[/ QUOTE ]

I think that's our easter egg.

[ QUOTE ]
First off, CoH and CoV are the same game. Different boxes, yes, but CoV is an issue of CoH.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd disagree. CoV had a slightly different development team and an overall different design philosophy, the way villains work is relatively different from heroes, and that shows.

[ QUOTE ]
Do you have any basis for claiming that the proactive design began to impact zone events in Issue 7 and not in Issue 5? The insanely frequent spawn rate for Lusca always makes me think there's some trigger event being hit far too often.

[/ QUOTE ]

Lusca appeared in I3, so unless they changed her spawn behaviors without saying anything, it's simply due to a quirk in her spawn code.

[ QUOTE ]
The Arachnos Flier is almost certainly player spawn, IMO, despite Prima claims. We just haven't discovered the criteria yet.

[/ QUOTE ]

A redname posted and said that the Arachnos Flier spawn information in the Prima Guide is correct. Now, whether or not it's bugged or if he was wrong...

Something seems to be wrong with the list. The various spaces between certain sets appear off, and Recluse's Right Hand is missing entirely. That might be the cause of the offset, because I didn't see anything else out of the ordinary.

Just thought I'd mention, while I planned to tune up that costume today, I've fallen a bit ill, so I'll just say "soon".

Atlas Park- change Skulls to Hellions



[/ QUOTE ]

Just something I'd like to drop in here to this Lemur. Changing the Skulls to Hellions would probably not be a good idea IMHO. You can easily get Hellion bosses in the eastern part of Port Oakes (Dockside?). I worked on that badge while doing the Marcone bosses badge with my Brute. Now, granted this was a fair bit of time ago, but I seem to remember still seeing Damned in there recently.

The only other option we have for Skull bosses (besides the rare newspaper mission) is Psymon Omega's Phobia mission in the 30-35 range (or is it 35-40? Can't remember his setting).

Just saying.

[/ QUOTE ]

He said that Skulls would go in Kings Row.

And I agree with all of it - Skulls only appear in Atlas if you take the patrol mission, and Family used to spawn in Steel only waaay back when.

Problem:

Hero Slayer is both/either bugged in some capacity or somewhat annoyingly difficult to get. Not the mention the number of heroes needed for it AND what heroes count in particular is being debated (25? 50? 100? All Paragon Heroes? Freedom Phalanx? WISDOM? Civic Squad? Sea Witch?)

There have been some discrepancies concerning its progress bar as well.

anachrodragon:

Here's two designs that I think match the flair of the first two without looking, you-know-what (though I did forget the emblem on the first, whoops).

Fault:

I think this hazard suit looks pretty good.

http://img161.imageshack.us/img161/1...ningguy0to.png

As for Schysm, I honestly am not sure what to do. Then again, he is kind of hard to see in the screenshot. If he doesn't already, some chains and things might be good.

Mr_Dog:

Here's two designs for him, under the assumption that this is some poor chap who was bitten by a radioactive fly trap, or perhaps was hit by a chlorophyll bomb or something. ( )

When pressed for ideas, make Gordon Freeman with green-tinted hair.

While I am loathe to do this...

Bump!

Also, the accolade for the immoblizer ray is "Headline Stealer". And Couch Potato is the mission badge from the Television required for it.

Cat_astroph:

Here's four different designs, going from most humanoid, to cheetah, to tiger, to least humanoid.
