    Yes can we stop scratching and start digging at it. The plastic hero models need an upgrade to look more realistic.

    CoH2 already

    IMHO City of is lacking in one category and that is character models. We have improved water effects, shadows, destructive objects in missions, weapon customization, costumes that look great compared to the paint on of yesteryear and some with effects, backpacks etc etc. The sore thumb is the characters, they are plastic looking and their stance is not realistic compared to some MMOs out there. We should not have to use a emote to have a normal stance. Plus one thing irritates myself and I am sure a good portion of the population, the mitten hands. In one coffee talk one dev spoke of shooting energy out of your finger only to have Zwillinger tell him we don't have fingers. Imagine how cool to shoot powers out your finger? Faces need love and not what we have now(blinking eyes or mouth moving). Overall just a revamp and we would never need an City of 2.

    Make ya a deal if they update the character models, I will see that an accidental sprinkle doughnuts end up in their office.
  4. No one stays dead in comics for very long (unless your Uncle Ben or Gwen Stacie). I can imagine the cheesie way they are going to bring him back in a year or so and explain his semi fake death. Heck I can see them using his replacement as an explanation for his return that it was him all along testing the cities new heroes Incarnates to see it they had what it took to take up the mantle.
  5. Like many who will say this "going to save up and wait til they are on sale".
  6. The female outfit just does not seem right to me for some reason. I do not know what it is, I just cant put my finger on it. It just screams at me like something is wrong with me. I am no artist or expert at the Chinese New Year costumes, it is my opinion.
  7. I know I mourned her passing in my own way. And even posted one of her songs on Face book to help the young kids know what good music was.
  8. Any movie that has vampires be vampires and not disco balls is a win to me.
  9. Call downs(summoning) are your friend when approaching an enemy.

    Don't be afraid to use the environment as a weapon despite the fact it is a historical site.

    This does not make any sense if you complete the Media Trial, Prometheus goes into detail as to what Battalion is and what they want.

    So your saying I should buy the guy a round of drinks?
  14. Personal opinion: It was an empty death. Like Star Trek TNG Tasha Yar empty death. No honor, no big battle, no nothing. I was hoping for something more than just a smile and just death. I really felt let down and I really did not feel the emotional part that was suppose to be conveyed until I threw in my words as filler. Don't get me wrong it was a good build up but a let down ending that left a bad taste in my mouth.

    Gets a 2 out of 5
  15. I am still skeptical that they will keep em dead more than 3-6 months and pull out a clone or stuck in some temporal loop excuse to explain what happened to him and why he is back. But then again, if they do keep him dead it would go along with the Time after Time storyline for Patron arc.

    Nahh. Too clean.

  18. Fine I will say it..


    ZERG!! GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

    (Looks good by the way. I wanna bug hunt now.)
  19. At least to me I do not feel as tho any character is a "god" or close to it. Granted they have neat new tricks to add to their power pools but as for what we had in the first mender mission where saw our future selves? Not even close. I have stopped hoping any of my heroes/villains ever become cosmic beings like Silver Surfer or Mr. Mxyzptlk because it will take the challenge out of any older content.
  20. I think were missing the big question: they know the NPC models look dated, but will they change them to fit the new background? I have noticed when it comes to alot the things we ask for the same response pops up: Time and resources, or limitations to the engine. I am no tech guy, I learn by watching and I have seen a couple of old games like COX, upgrade their engine and they look better. So it is limitation of engine or what?

    After that though I suspect your thoughts on this will be dismissed like these little historical gems of supposed wisdom.

    Did you ever know, your my hero?

Their time cloak lasts an incredibly tiny fraction of a fraction of a second. They hid an event for 40 trillionths of a second, according to a study appearing in Thursday's edition of the journal Nature."
