That was a no-brainer. The game specifically says the the system can run Praetoria three times over, or something similar. I'm betting we take out two of the reactors so they can't put that extra energy to use warring.


So there's the big Hammi announcement for PAX they mentioned. Why are we not just letting Hammi take out Praetoria for us again? Besides Prometheus saying so?

Her father is Sportsmaster, who was seen in the episode Drop Zone working with Kobra and the mysterious group of unseen villains.



POSSIBLE SPOILERS


Fans have been connecting the dots based on hints the writers have dropped in interviews and in the show itself.

That wasn't Ms. Martian, but a character from a sitcom, presumably titled 'Hello Megan!'. A snippit advertising the show can be heard on the TV playing in the background in Artemis' home in the episode Downtime

M'gann learned about Earth from watching old sitcoms, and patterned her looks and personality on the sitcom character Megan, right down to acting ditzy, baking cookies for her friends and using the "Hello Megan!" catchphrase constantly because she thinks that's how an "Earth girl" is supposed to act.

Presumably, Superboy spends some time watching TV at the HQ, has seen the show and has put two and two together. He may be the only one on the team who realizes where she gets it from and thus sees though her "act".

Kind of...ghoulish for a lot of my heroes.

I too have a large monitor and this problem. I find it helps to use the 'Compatablecursors 1' switch because it has a little more contrast for me.

I'd sign for an option for a bigger pointer and/or the ability to color it. Or even better, make the cursor the inverse color of whatever is beneath it so it always stands out.


.

Yes. Yes it is.


Issue 20: Cole Rocks Fall Everyone Dies




.

I'm not so sure about that.

The Floating Fortress write up made it sound like a new zone with Easter Eggs and fishermen in need of rescue and whatnot. That makes me think it's less likely to be just a mission map.

Doesn't mean it can't be both a new zone and a TF for it, but I hope it's more than just a new TF map.

Here's some questions for you:

1. Why don't you just ask someone from CapeRadio? Or Jay himself?
2. Why would Jay, even if we ignore him going outside of marketing channels which is a big no-no for the devs, spill info to one global channel on one server?
3. Why would he not once comment on the subject in this thread or anywhere else on the forums?
4. If you answer to the previous question is "he's too busy", then how does he have time to compose elaborate riddles, hang out in a game channel over the course of several days chatting and dropping hints to a handful of players.
5. Why is it harder for you to believe that:

A prankster with an easily falsifiable name and nothing else managed to fool a few people with hints concocted to sound exciting, that people would want to believe, people who then repeated rumors and and snowballed form there as rumors ought.

VS

A senior developer who has shown comparably little interaction with the community on the forums, possibly risked his job to drop hints in the form of elaborate yet misspelled riddles, to a few players on a single server in a closed channel, and has never spoke of it or was seen there since.



.

That's all well and good, but first I'd like the devs to look into why those powers go unclicked.

For example, my Unstoppable gathers dust not because there haven't been situations that may call for a Tier 9, but because I think it's a poor power, is designed in such a way that makes people not want to use it and is a joke compared to One with the Shield and Strength of Will. It's a 3 minute delayed suicide button on a long recharge that doesn't help cover the holes in the set it belongs to and frankly is more trouble than its worth.

Another example: I don't use Hand Clap because it's completely counter-intuitive to damage dealing, surviving or tanking. It serves no useful purpose and creating an artificial need for such a power would only anger and annoy me, rather than make me want to use it.



.

Ghostbusters is due an anmiated reboot. Extreme Ghostbusters didn't really count as it was more of a belated continuation. It even had an episode with the original four back together for one last mission, with the surviving voice actors in their old roles.


.

Woah now, I didn't say anything about really really hard content. Wanting multiple Incarnates being harder for people to have doesn't automatically translate to harder content. Getting tons of badges (some people view as an accomplishment) may not always involve difficult tasks but it is "hard" in that its time consuming. Thus, most people who care have one "badge character" they go to the trouble for.

I think having an Incarnate should involve more than simply running the Trial or WST enough times on each of your multiple 50's.

Years ago, I wished Incarnates would be implemented as a EAT that you had to unlock and could only have one of. I don't think there should be hundreds of Incarnates running around Atlas Park at any given time. I don't think vast numbers of gag-characters and ERP toons should be Incarnates.

I think the current overall effort involved to get one Incarnate is mostly fine, but it should be much "harder" (ie not encouraging or maybe even discouraging) to have many Incarnates, especially in such a short time.



.

They most likely don't. Arcanaville pointed out how unlikely that would be, and in this case I'm inclined to agree.

IMO, most likely we'll get another Shift with the Omega slot and that'll be it.

*sheds a single tear*


.

One can't point to definitive dates because this wasn't just like flipping a switch and them saying "OK, we're going to draw and write like this from right now on".

Showcase #4 is the accepted 'start' of the Silver Age but, there's so much bleed and gradient before and after that clearly defined ending and beginning dates are meaningless.

In determining what's Golden Age and what's Silver Age, it's far more important to look at the content; art and writing styles, rather than the cover date, determine what age something most belongs to.



.

People forget how badass some Golden Age heroes were. The Angel from Marvel Comics precursor Timely Comics for example.

Imagine Batman, in baby blue tights and red cape. lol, amirite?

Now imagine that instead of traveling the world to gain his skills, he was raised as a child in prison and learned them from thugs, thieves and murderers. He fights crime not because his parents were murdered, but because he's bored and it's a sport to him. Now imagine that he's so badass he doesn't bother wearing a mask or hide his identity as a well-known billionaire, because if anyone comes after him, he caves their head in.

If you're a crook and he wants information from you, he'll hide in the back seat of your car, put you in a choke hold and when you tell him what he wants, he'll snap your neck for good measure. If you come at him with a knife, he'll shoot you in the face with a Colt 45 before you can blink. Oh, and he's got magic cape that lets him fly, but he rarely uses it because he doesn't need it.




.

Because everyone knows super strong characters are weak unless they're villains or frothing rabid.


.

Further more, I might actually bother rolling an AR character if it had more dakka like Santa Supes had. The Syndicate Chaingun temp power from GR is a good start...if they duct taped two more to it plus a grenade launcher and mounted it to a steadicam harness.
