Spliced Booster Pack Idea
Mutant/Science Hybrid Origin Booster

Hello Thread.
I would like to request a spliced booster (previously the monstrous beast booster). I was hoping to have this in the mutation pack, but while extremely beautiful and awesome looking the costume pieces look it is not what I was looking for.

Here is some Mutant Pack Screen Shots if you haven't seen it yet.

When thinking of mutants the two top hero/super hero animations/comics come to mind, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and X-Men. I can't think of any two more iconic mutant media, can you? Among the x-men we have only a few things really defining them in appearance from traditional ordinary super powered heroes. You have the odd natural weapons like Wolverine and Saber Tooth, and then you have the inhuman looking creatures such as Beast and Night Crawler (yes I know he isn't pure human, but his appearance is like that of a mutant).


This latter trait is shared in more common with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with their, almost, purely human hybrid animal characters. To say the least this is what I expected with the mutant pack but hey, its not like we can demand a re-name and a different mutant pack.

So while I really like the current mutant pack, could we please get a booster pack that is more in line with this? Is anyone else interested?

P.S. It has been purposed that we make this the Science/Mutation Hybrid pack, which I happen to like the idea of a lot.


My Ideas:
Claws!
No Weapon Claw Power Setting (so they can use their natural claws)
More Realistic Animal Heads
Matching Animal Legs, Feet, Tails, and Claws

Yeah, I agree, but it still looks incredible!

I agreed. However I think they are probably working on it as we speak.

Okay, thanks!

Yeah sorry 11.75 years was incorrect. Sorry for the confusion. It should be 6 years.

If a person who has been with the game for 12 years, has completed first the entire 1st and 2nd Tier vet rewards. A new person joins City of Heroes.

While he gets the first 3 months of Tier 1, 2, and 3 at this point, they do not have the rest of the tier 1 and 2 vet rewards. So only the veterans would have the entire tier. So when Year 18 comes along and some one joins, they would have 6 years till the get the entire tier 1, 2, 3, and 4 tier rewards.

Its just an idea, and I think this one in particular would be a great idea, as it would make the 3 month mark eventually have a free booster pack just for playing for no additional work than what they are doing already.

Yeah, it might not be a veteran system any more past 6-11.75 years of play. But the amount of content and free stuff provided could be a great incentive to have new players stick around, as they would get a lot of new material. Perhaps this is not a good idea, which I am fine with, but I look forward to the new booster packs to come instead.

Option two does not involve paying more money. Each is a separate system I am purposing.

Because I think they would be too similar. What ideas do you have?

That is not what I am insinuating, I am insinuating that it could be both an incentive and reward.

Okay, it is just that 6 years might seem like a long way to go for new players, as what is the average life-span so far of a game like to be expected?

I am not ignoring or missing, I just think that it might be good to make them into both a reward and incentive. No, but as stated above, how long do we expect it to last really?

Okay

This one.
As I am still having trouble, but the posts after yours has made many good points expressing the problem and other problems I have been happening.

That is a perfectly good statement.

Edit: But doesn't mean I don't feel like it can't be improved, however unwarranted it might be. In the end I think this entire concept stems from my concern for the continuance of the game. Not many games last 6 years, and I have to wonder how much longer it will continue. Yes they are making the steps to update the game, but that still doesn't completely put my concerns at ease. So I am trying to find ways to help introduce new players better to the game, this thread being my first few ideas. My favorite for this is my idea #2.

okay

The context you put this statement seems like you are making it personal. For clarification, I am posing ideas, which I am perfectly okay with people saying they don't want, I just wish people would read the entire OP and address each idea. Thus was the reason I creating this thread separate from the others in the first place.

This analogy makes me think you didn't read my OP, as it is not the same by any means, and is more of a generalization. However after reading the following, I see that is how you see things, which however incorrect I believe it to be, is your opinion.

You may understand exactly what I am saying, and competently disagree, and I am okay with that, however let me try and present what I think is a more accurate analogy of what I am trying to do.

You join this company. Everyone is paid equally, however strange it is. Every 3 mouths you work there everyone gets some bonus memorabilia for working there. This memorabilia has a progression rate for each individual. First is a free pen, second is a free note book, third is a free jacket, fourth is a vest; there is a fifth and ongoing rewards.
After you get the free pen, you can buy the note book, but not the jacket or the vest, or anything following. Having gotten the pen and note book, already. 3 months later you get the jacket, and can buy the vest, but you can not buy the following memorabilia.

Edit: FYI, with my suggested system for #1, you would need to already be on for 3 years, and shell out $120, for the remaining 3 years of advancement.

I disagree, but okay. Having an option of catching up eventually as each tier comes up shows of some sort of hope, as they will eventually catch up.

If you read the OP then you would have noticed that I stated that I read this in another similar thread, and felt it wasn't noticed directly because of this, so I made this thread.


Meaning, I used the search engine and noticed that these ideas, exactly, was not mentioned and I wanted it address speratly as all I would be doing was bumping other people's ideas that I didn't agree with.

NO, read the OP.

And Idea #2?

You have interpreted it correctly.

And idea #2?

NO on the first part.

And to the rest

So please instead of reading the title TRY and read the OP.

Interesting question, which is worse, a person who doesn't read the OP, or the person who doesn't use the search engine?

I just wish that they made it so when you turned on these new run animation powers that they stayed on even when you used a non stack-able power, but didn't drain your energy any.
