Quote:The kawarimi no jutsu or body replacement technique is a variant of the shunshin no jutsu or body flicker technique. While using the shunshin no jutsu to move at unbelievable speeds for just a moment the user places another object in his place. A side effect of body flicker is you leave an after image which allows a master to make it look like they were hit.Originally Posted by Steelclaw
And while we're on the subject of Naruto... can someone explain to me why, in a world where the substitution jutsu exists... why does anyone EVER get hurt at all?
Oh no! I stubbed my toe! Substitution jutsu! Cut yourself shaving? No you didn't... the log did!
This would not work for something you weren't expecting since you have to actually be able to doge the attack...so no get of free cards for razor cuts or stubbed toes. -
Quote:It's almost like when they are doing beta testing they are adjusting things to make the game more enjoyable before they go live!Originally Posted by Zombie Man
Black Scorpion in Closed Beta specifically stated that you lose your Incarnate Abilities below 50 (at the time, they persisted as low as level 39, which was labeled a bug). Currently on Beta, the Alpha Ability is present at level 45, but not at 39. I haven't tested the levels in between.
So, Black Scorpion and Tim Sweeney need to get their act together and come up with a straight answer.*
*They're the same person. -
Jedi's are natural origin if they were master martial artist before they used the force and still concentrate on their martial arts.

Quote:I don't see how being smart as a super power is insulting...Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Yeah, but you basically take the WORST aspect of Origin of Powers and expand on it, making it that much worse. The very idea that "smarts" is somehow the physical representation of some kind of metaphysical power is... Insulting, to be perfectly honest. It insinuates that a smart character is not, in fact, smart, but is actually receiving some kind of divine knowledge. I prefer to leave skill and smarts as being a character's own achievements, rather than some kind of meta-power.

Quote:Incarnate of a deity might be a side effect of fast power.Originally Posted by ChaosExMachina
Ramiel suggests that it could be 'somebody' directing the well, but I don't know the quote.
I'm calling it a retcon because it went from 'incarnate of a deity' to 'mysterious power source that can be many things and that was just one of them.'
The well gives you immediate overwhelming power and takes root in you bending you to its whims.
Previous gods where probably men and women who drank too deep. -

Quote:Why would they care if they die?Originally Posted by Dark Lost
Usually when that happens, I lead over and enemy and stand next to the guy. Cuz then they start fighting because they know if I die, it's coming for them next.
Can't they just lay there till it's over? -
I'm relatively confident my husbands account has this code already applied, but since 2 boxes is still cheaper then one month after shipping I took a gamble.
Seeing multiple codes flagged as simply "retail" is so ******* lazy though. -
It makes sense.
You are either flagged as beta or not.
Someone has to turn that flag on or it is turned on when your account is chosen by a filter to fill open slots.
If you have the flag removed (no need to invite people who might never know and therefore be of no use) it would have to be rechosen either by someone again flagging it or it be being auto flagged by the previous mentioned filter. -

Oh wait that's right.
The account page was organized by idiots who don't want to properly label anything. -

Jesus, with a shotgun and a smoke, giving us the Abhaya Mudra, a Buddhist gesture meaning "have no fear." Why can't religion be more like this?
Get ordained on the internet and start a church.
But I think we've crossed the moderator line on this with that picture...and any response to it.
We'll see on Monday I suppose. -
Quote:mmm yes...you can tell yourself whatever story you like but it's a bit foolish to get upset at others who don't want to play along when you ignore the game story.Originally Posted by Ironik
Which IOs do these guys have slotted?
Let's do this, shall we? You play your way, I'll play mine.
My Natural guy does NOT run at 40 mph. That's a game mechanic which I ignore. He does NOT get a boost from IOs, he's in top physical condition. Now, in Paragon City, people are more fit than they are here on our world, but my guy is still Natural. Shoving a Magic suppository up his bum isn't going to happen: the Incarnate stuff is just going to be him firing on all cylinders and having a better-than-usual day, end of story.
Watch this: here's what people can do in OUR world. See this video, too: despite the one "running on water" thing which was a fake video by a shoe company, that's an example of the Natural origin. There are dozens of such videos of incredible athletic abilities people have. Look up Cirque du Soleil or Billy's Balls (ping pong ball tricks) or business card throwing... there are all sorts of gifts people have.
So yeah, my Natural guy can go head-to-head with demons and gods because he's just that good. That's how I play, and it's not wrong. -
Quote:You are right. The only thing stopping the creation of animal models is the amount of work to reanimate everything for them. There is no engine limit in place for this one.Originally Posted by Leo_G
As opposed to not discussing it. If the suggestion is so ridiculous to be considered a joke, then you can simply post nothing. And since the OP had already indicated the suggestion wasn't a joke, I'd say it's viable to bring up the limitations, yeah, but only to bring perspective. I don't think the devs illicitly shot down more models/skeletons (I think it was even brought up in one of the surveys when you deactivate your account or maybe one of the Art threads), but it was commented how much work it'd be.

Oh and redoing/creating costume pieces for them. -
Quote:I think fly needs to be buffed myself.Originally Posted by TonyV
Yeah but there is a minuscule difference between "fly" and "fly faster." On the other hand, there is a huge difference between "fly" and "can't fly." Personally, I can't imagine why anyone would take fly now other than for a concept character. Why would you waste a perfectly good slot to get somewhere far away in 21 seconds instead of 24? I know some people who don't have a travel power at all, and they suffer very little.
I get what BlueRaptor is saying, and to some extent, I agree. The pool powers have pretty much all become blah, and the only real differentiation is in your primary and secondary powersets. -

How many orphans and natural disaster victims can you feed with this kind of cash? Pathetic waste of revenue.

I was jumping from one dress up flash game to another and MNP told me I could play with the City of Heroes character creator while he was at work.
We shared an account until I had a system that could play the game. -
Quote:From my understanding they apply as long as you don't get leveled down below 50.Originally Posted by Judgement_Dave
I can't remember - do incarnate abilities/effects only apply at level 50 or only apply whilst doing incarnate activities?
If it's the latter then we may never know as it's possible that they'll never be effective in Atlas Park. -
Do you think being shifted to 51 will effect the range you get while throwing minions around Atlas?

If you can afford 200+ plus for the game code you think you could have gone to the convention.

Has anyone who keeps re downloading tried running the updater with the -mp option so it goes straight into major patch mode?

Thank you Posi. That was what I was waiting for actually. Of course giving us the common courtesy of saying "I am sorry, but I was wrong" might have been better. At least, that is how I (and most parents I believe) teach my children to do it.

Quote:The game will see you as 51 so you don't have as much of a level penalty when fighting 54s but you most likely will not see a stat boost.Originally Posted by Robo_Knight
Oh you can bet I'll be working on getting to level 51. I read that correctly, right? A +1 Level Shift means you would go up a level, right?
