Quote:Yep... and she never really will... Roleplay wise she could track him down and kill him. But as that is godmodding she will never manage that. Mechano will always be a step ahead and completly unpredictable by any sane person. Unless we come to any agrement between each other.All that power and she still can't deal with an insane old man
.
Which remind me... as youre human male... we need to find out a reason why her vampiric charms don't effect you? Same mindboggling madness I gather. -
Power as in cosmic abilities to do anything
or
Power as in very powerful / incarnate and on same level as Statesman and Recluse?
It is not completly the same you see...
Elizabeth is/was meant to be same level as Recluse from day one. As I planned her to be a leader of an SG of villains/demons/witches/vampires and more... That was intentional. And I have been burned down a few times for having that in my biography. But I wanted her to be not a follower of Recluse in any way... Old and arrogant enough to stand on the same level as him. I never was a fan of hero worshipping... and that is the same of my villain vs. the top game villain.
But the power doesn't make her hard to rp. She has so many weaknesses that are wellknown. She is a vampire... same age and power as Dracula in the original book by Bram Stoker, who btw was defeated by just a few mere mortals. Augmented by a deal with Dark gods that gave her an external source of energy. And 400 years of studying dark sorcery/witchcraft.
But all weaknesses of a vampire are wellknown. The dark power source is an artifact. Spells and incarnations can do everything but will cost time and preperation for most.
A lot of her influence from behind is the power that is the hardest to keep clear of godmodding. Most of the time she just missed something... or one of her flunkies slipped up so that she did. Otherwise she would be able to influence the whole Isles. And that I can't have. Still with events and global plots the Court is mostly there. So the influence can be seen in game.
Checking her in-game power... Completely willing to test against any other god-like beings there. As I finally finished her to the levels that she can solo AV's and some GM's. And yes... powers that can come her way will be grabbed with both hands. So she will end up an incarnate in the new system. -
Welcome back from the Union Red-side... whahahaha...
4-5 years is longer then I could cope without this game. I gather you stopped player just before I started

I am still playing with a lot of fun for now over 4 years.
Aside of that... The devs care about subscriptions more then being in-game. So if you can post in here... you count towards the subscriptions activeAnd as far as statistics go... you are all still playing.

Ok.. why does NC SOFT come with lame video's that take a long time and get more people annoyed the educated. And Sauraiko sets the point in only a few seconds!!?
Oh yes.. she actually knows the players.
ps. Also a subscriber. -
Its a shame youre there instead of here.. I have several active SG's on blue and red side. But were on UNION!
Good luck though... -
hahahaha. youre right!
Welcome to the Dark Side... -
Gratz times 600
Just made 541 this morning... Slowly will get thereAnd its a villain...
-
Without reading the rest...
The heal is better then any other
It has a very good debuff effect
Limited by the fact a target is needed and an acc check
Don't buff it! It will become overpowered.
btw.. This morning soloed Back Alley Brawler on a flashback set on 8 members using my Necro/Dark Miasma main. -
Quote:I would buy one or several for absolutly sure!!! This is managable with enough time and will and will return enough money to make the time invested pay back!!!I've got limited experience with 3d printing so I've decided to chime in here. Most 3d printing software comes with a function to shrink wrap an optimized mesh around a model if it's not a solid shell. Besides that, it's quite doable within a standard 3d package like Max or Maya with a number of methods.
This is no more a hurdle than it is for WoW models. Like CoX Models, they're not solid geometry either and http://www.figureprints.com/ is offering such a service.
That's true, but for the most part the color/texture of a model would done by an artist interpreting what he sees on the 3d model in game. There's bound to be some adaptation decay, how much depends on their skill and technique.
Auras simply can't be done, but I think the majority of people would understand that.
I'd say it's doable today. Figure Prints is doing so right now with Blizzard.
Maybe they'd be interested in working something out for CoX if you guys contacted them. Maybe not. My point is, they got around the same obstacles you listed.
Also.. although WOW came with it first. The tech is nowhere as cool as with COH. The different costumes and the waay better emotes / stances make sure of that. -
Quote:When I posted one time on the forum of that other game I very much was shown that ML and several others are just waiting for Going Rogue. Expect a huge return of old players around that time. (Yes I can post there... I bought a lifetime sub. Once in a while I throw money away like this. Err... is only human.)Even though the fine gentleman in question is no longer active on these forums, on his behalf I'm going to park this right here and hope that BP takes a look at it.
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...highlight=Shop
Because if strips the hell out of any other CoX merchandising I've ever seen.
Welcome Pebble... It is good to know we have an active marketing. Now show us the activity!
I bought this game in a store... I can't buy Going Rogue in the store... *hint* -
"Salaam alaykum, ms. Barzini-Hunter.", Suraya answered taking Alicia her hand. "I didn't know the reverend had a sister-in-law?!"
Suraya looked around and noticed the mirror and laptop...
"I see he offered you a place to stay here... I hope it works out a bit. It is barely done..." -
Suraya Rania Mohammad Khatoom... the Desert Princess... had just arrived at the Worn Cover. The book store above the Nighhunter's base. The store wouldn't open for another hour or so though. She was early.
She closed the front door again and walked to the registrer for her daily check. All was in order and she placed her keys back in her jeans. Holding a print-out of the new book arrivals she walked down to the kitchen to make some tea. Using her thermal abilities to speed it up a bit she was quickly done and with a fresh cup of mint-tea she walked through the vault.
Then she heard movement in the living quarters and walked in to check. -
Well.. I am not sure about hiring... but I am absolutly sure that it is a waste of time making official video's as long as yours are sooo much better.
Great job! Will use it to show my collegues why I am so excited about this update. -
Elizabeth picked up the news paper. She was not shocked on the news that Pious Hunter had returned... or was it survived! It didn't matter that much to her as she already knew he was back!
She traced his picture with her finger... "Soon Reverend... Soon. You will not be able to elude me forever!"
A faint smile formed around her lips while she picked up her goblet filled with the red liquid of life. -
No.. not the worst issue ever at all. But it should have been I19 to get it out without all the exploits!
Creating own missions like this is a big leap. But AE should be always the 'extra' thing to do. The thing that has the challenges for mr. big post a few posts back. As they are often harder then anything else in the game. If you don't believe me try my arcs.
With exception of the farm stuff ofcourse. But that's why I said it should have been I19. -
Well my main is ofcourse taken from history. And I have in the past had players complaining about lack of originality on my part. But never had a word of problems with the devs.
And on Union I am very high profile leading the top 10 SG and using the name here on the forums.
Bathory Erzsebet
Countess Bathory
Liz Bathory
Someone else has Elizabeth Bathory and Erzsebet Bathory. If they would free up on Union I would like to have them
There was never a copyright on. And will never be. -
Quote:This is valuable information. A small change can give you a fast overal normal xp then. Make youre prisoners run towards the door after rescue.I've done some more testing of patrols, and they're complicated:
When you enter the mission, enemies give full XP. Once you get close enough to hear the patrol dialog, XP starts to be affected by the ally nerf. As members of the patrol are defeated, XP goes back up towards normal.
Battles and allied boss fights are similar, but the XP drop starts sometime before the dialog.
The moment they leave the map the xp will be normal again.
For now the best thing to do.. until the real fix -
Quote:So in agreement here.
There are currently over 3,000 pages of 'arcs' in the AE.
The following keywords denote blatant farming and powerlevelling:
Farm
Tickets
H.D.S.
Anti-Portal
XP
(Meow/Miaow etc arcs are still on the system! Delete them!)
Although the Developers have a job to rebalance everythign and have gotten it wrong on more than one occasion, Player Greed and the desire to achieve something for nothing have created this problem.
If farmers, mass exploiters, cheaters and the like are so sure that they have a good argument why they should be allowed to continue doing so then why are there multiple copies of the same 'arcs'? Just given a different flavour?
I am not calling for account bans, suspensions or such. I'm calling for suspension from the AE with regards to creating content. If you can't play responsibly, then the privelege is removed. End of story.
You could also do a good cleanup by deleting all arcs and then you will see that after the nerving only the good stories will be republished. -
Ofcourse blue side will outrage.. but red side has to endure.
This whole 'devs hate villains' thing is just too obvious. Red side is at least 25% harder then blue. Probable more.
I started as a villain and only made my first hero after months of playing. I couldn't believe how fast and easy I had it in all aspects of the game. This should be repaired. Not by making it easier for villains. But by making it just as hard for heroes! -
Were completly drifting here... Lets get one thing straight first!
Kung-fu multi-sectioned whips are NOT the same in animation/fight styly as the bull whip! And the looks of the arts of the demon set suggests it is a hellfire bull whip we are talking about.
All animation must be from that set then. So all talk and comparison to the Chinese Kung-Fu whip is out of the question. Even though I love Kung-Fu.
Now... back to the Hellfire bullwhip! Whiplash, Blacklash, Catwoman, Indiana Jones, Zorro... These are some of the heroes we compaire to.
It would be a minor ranged damage set with some control. Even if the whip has hellfire/Energy/Acid effects.
If we look at the animation for seperate weapon skins we can fit in several there...
- Bullwhip (no effects)
- Bullwhip (fire effect)
- Bullwhip (energy effect)
- Bullwhip (steel)
- Old fashioned chain (Spawn, Ghostrider)
Adding new holds/control/attacks for the power slots that will now have the demon summoning will not happen though. Or at least... it hasn't happened before. The Dual Pistol set was completly redesigned and not a take-over from the mm set. The Laser rifle isn't done yet. -
Concept...
A arabian toon called Desert Princess automatically became Illusion/thermal/fly
A vampire witch called Erzsebet Bathory became Necro/dark/fly
A time traveller called Tom Orrow became Gravity/Kinetic/teleport/hover
etc.
It is the most fun to have a toon that speaks to you... And the powers are a big issue with that. -
