    Peace

  2. - Tights for Valentine's Hellenic Sandals


    - Option for Valentine's Victory Laurel male & female hairs without the laurel (or better, add them like base hairs). I think there's a male NPC in praetoria that already use the hair without it.


    - Vanguard Backpack, Mace, TW & Staff

    - Rularuu TW & Staff
    - Celestial Shield, Bow, TW & Staff


    - Boots, gloves & belt


    - Hairs


    - Gloves (without the cuffs) & SASH!!!


    - Headcom, gauntlets & shoulders (I presume that the chest detail can't be ported because it needs to be scalable with the chest sliders and it was not designed with that in mind)ed with that in mind)

    Didn't catch the answer to that one.
    What's a "Heh, spike!"?

    Also, if I understood correctly, they said you don't want to side with a race that would obliterate you and all you know.

    The thing is that Biotic is more generic and includes Symbiotic.

    I have told all my SG mates about it, and I will most certainly respec my namesake into it when it's officially released, but I won't mention it by name on these forums out of respect.
    The problem with the Symbiotic name is that it implies the armor is a living thing while the Bio name allows the interpretation of the armor being your own body. That, and also Marvel.
    Maybe "Biotic Armor"?

    There's no need, look:
    - 1 arm for the shield
    - 1 arm for the blade
    - mouth for the 2nd blade

    Mutant issue....

    Can you name a mutant group other than the Outcasts?

    - The Awakened
    - Coralax (it's not really clear if the coral's power is mutant or magical, maybe even pseudo-incarnate)
    - Devouring Earth (both prime and praetorian)
    - The Infested
    - Paragon Protectors (well, actually is a mix of mutant and science)
    - Seers
    - Slag golems (see coralax)
    - Snakes (mix of mutant, magic and/or incarnate)
    - Syndicate
    - Nuclear 90 (not in game)

    But you cannot manufacture mutants to fill out a VG.
    Paragon Protectors (but yeah, like you say later, mixed origin)

    The best place could be just next to the video projector: nothing that can block the image and good angle, they only need to put it the way that the light of the projector doesn't hinder the view.

  11. I found a weird problem:
    - Select a costume piece not purchased (it has the cart icon to the right)
    - Save the costume.
    - Now try load. It says it can't do it. Select "Attempt costume fix". Load.
    - Now ALL costume pieces not purchased are hidden in the costume menus.

    If you tick and untick "Only show free costumes" the problem is fixed but the costume is reset, so it's impossible to load a costume saved if it uses a non-purchased costume piece.

    I can't alt-tab out of the game easily on my PC to check the boards for player-advertised arcs or aeon's weekly MA arcs, but that's about the only reliable resource I'd found.

    Imagine if the game had a "review/refer system." Imagine if you could see the ratings from JUST the people you've friended (who may be more likely to share your interests) or added to a "reviewer list. You'd have a personalized rating system that better reflects what you want out of the AE system.
    Yeah, they could make the game recommends arcs based in ratings done by people that rated arcs you already rated, but maybe is too resource intensive.

(I'm wrong here)

    Edit: So it turns out the same environment map is used in all zones/maps, never noticed it before.
    Bug? To use Praetoria to show reflections for every map looks wrong to me.

    You guys clearly didn't read the whole text.
  15. Guys, drop the analogies, is more simple.
    - CoH can be played for free.
    - The rewards are for ppl that paid the 4 months of game (13€x4=52€)
    - During the same time, ppl could drop the subscription, use it to play another game AND still play CoH for FREE.

    So, allowing anyone purchase the rewards by less than 52€ is a slap in the face of the costumers that maintained their subscriptions.
  16. I think the problem is that people don't see that this was a loyalty program that rewarded NOT GOING TO ANOTHER GAMES RELEASED IN THAT TIME FRAME, not a program that rewarded long-time players (that's the Paragon Rewards).
    If they offer the rewards for less that the subscription price of that time frame, then it defeats the purpose of the program. Why should I maintain my subscription and not spend the money in the new game if not only can I get the rewards later but maybe I can get them cheaper?
    Think about that.

    Edit: NH, you wrote the same thing while I was. :P

    Carnival Mutant/Magic mix
    Malta are Natural/Tech
    Croatoa groups 4x magic

    so 42 groups now
    Magic: 11
    Actually Wardens are Science, they use superserums to give them powers.
    They're Natural psychics (like fortunatas, widows and bane spiders) but they are very scarce and they need a lot of training to performance like a common mutant psychic.

    Laser guns.

    Or will the tutorial get turned off? Maybe you can choose to be a Praetorian, but one who got out before the end. I doubt it, but damn, it's going to be bittersweet to play through those arcs knowing it's all for naught, no matter which side of the conflict you were on.

    (Thank you to those who were able to watch it and report back to the rest of us.)
    Even with Praetoria no more, they can go on with the story. The few people who fled to Primal could schism in several faction:
    - True Loyalist, people who follow the path of Cole ("you can't trust mankind", "look what they did to our world").
    - Reformist, people who want to rebuild Praetoria in a better way.
    - Pariah, people who find a new home in the Primal Earth.

    With those 3 new factions they have fuel to more conflict: conspirations, espionage, old comrades fighting one each other...

    Maxi Pound will have lost her family, her friends in the PPD, and others. Zahir Rolando will have fully lost the apartment that once belonged to him and his partner, before a Resistance terrorist bombing of a restaurant cost him his legs and his partner his life. Constance Svanhildr will have no IDF to go back to, to try and help rebuild and retrain.

    I was always hoping the Resistance wouldn't win and get the city for themselves. But if this is the alternative...

    Dang. Major downer.
    Well,look at the bright side, Resistance didn't get the city.
