Looking forward to this. Hope to see a good turnout!

Hollows was my preferred patrol ground on my PCSAR toon. No reason to do so these days sadly.

I suppose it's a good thing, not to have Heroes falling over dead left and right, but still... Man, those were the days!

Only Z has the power to Bump an entire subforum back into the communities minds.

Can't blame em for trying.

You mean it doesn't stand for multi-faceted?

I see what you did there.

Though it's a bit odd reading a letter to Bill, in Bill's voice...

Yes please, years ago.

As skeletal as this thing is, being from 2010, I do find it interesting to read now that States is gone.

Also, good call on Frostfire being redeemed. This was made before tips right?

I'd love to have glowing eyes and still be able to use an Aura.

No, Supernatural face 13 doesn't count.

They did indeed nerf Rezzing enemies.

As far as the current state of AE... I have no clue.
That fix killed CEBR and as a result I stopped paying attention.

I had to google that as I couldn't recall Statesman ever saying that...

Yeah, shame on me for not watching B5.

So there is absolutely zero interest in talking about this controller concept?

Nah, that can't be right.

Ah! I know what my mistake was, I posted in the suggestions section at 2am...
/Doh

You should've waited 3 more minutes LSK...

I thought the monocle fiasco threw this kind of thing under the bus...

This makes me wonder why no Dev has ever choosen Nemesis as their Redname.

I'd jump at the chance personally, as the toymaker is hands-down one of my favorite pieces of CoH lore.

I am interested in seeing this megabuild, I'm assuming it's Fire/MM ;p
Completely irrelevant to this topic however, as thats an outlier and not the norm, you are a serious builder so I'd expect anything you created to be uber, as your humanform shows.

But, while your at it...

Roll up a warmace scrapper or brute and an energy blaster.
Slot nothing.
Take through DfB to level 12.
With nothing slotted, attack a group and count how many attacks it takes you to take down 3 minions. >.<

It wasn't like that 3 years ago.

That's my point. Not that Blasters are still fine with high end builds. That is obvious, everything is viable with high end builds. It's that Blasters are no longer demonstrating this design ingame out of the box. *Shrugs*

Edit: to address MisterD, I have no clue why it reads that I think blasters were ever designed to be tough. I meant Blasters having to pump that much Inf just to get there isn't right.

Though, the more I think about this, the more it starts to seem like this is just an issue with the way I play casually as oppossed to the newgame mindset with the game starting at 50. I'm gonna bow out for the night though, as I don't want this to just be a back and forth. I already know my opinion, just looking to see if I'm way out in space with it.

Any AT you have to pump billions, or even just millions into, just to get them to where they were designed to be in the first place. Hasn't kept pace with the games progress.

Sure, it's hyperbole to say every other AT can dish it out, tanks would indeed have a hard time leveraging that much (before lvl40) But it serves the purpose of getting the point across.

You can take any AT and, with enough investment, turn them into a near godlike being. That isn't the issue here. The issue here is;

Blasters are the damage kings, we suffer with being weaker defense wise for this, this is how it should be.

I just find it hard to believe that Blasters have kept up when in todays game my Scrappers and Brutes do much more damage, from level 1 on. This wasn't the case a few years ago.

This may be all perception based. The new melee sets being so powerful and all, but that perception is tainting the enjoyment I get from my favorite AT.

TwoHead is correct, the notion that the game is balanced around SO's went out the window long ago. Samuel_Tow is just now coming to terms with this fact, as am I.
If we want to continue enjoying this game the way we have all these years, it's IO's all the way.

Caveat: I don't want this to be seen as whining. I'm just looking to get the forums opinion on the matter.
MisterD, I've been blasting since 2005, death means nothing to me. Besides that, I'm old hand at this nowdays, I rarely ever die. If it turns out it is all in my head, so be it, but from the gathering of opinions on it, I started this thread because I don't think I am in the minority anymore.

More of the same really, but steam seems to be picking up at least. The poll is interesting, so far fans want it to remain 'classic'.

I wouldn't be able to stand the ChibiTitans for an entire episode. I always disliked the small montages they'd do with that style.

As shorts though... I can deal with it to get more TT.
Was that Remote Control at the end? My sound started messing up.
