Wow! Surprised the choice of "Powers" is not listed there. I mean that seems to be a core aspect of CoX.

Yet a Super Group costume isn’t your creation, either. And yet people wear them. The counterpoint is, of course, that a Super Group costume is in addition to one’s normal costume, not instead of. There’s no such personal property in the base. We thought (on paper) that the “personal items” would do the trick, but it isn’t really the same thing, is it?

Jack, personal items are basically weapon systems or other utilized hardware at this point. What we need is the ability to have a place to display our badges and maybe screenshots (famous moments) on a wall in a personal 'decorative' room that doesn't count towards the base's overall plot size. At the very least a single room for the sg members to do that in.

SG Costumes: Can we get a slot automatically when we join an sg? Maybe with a costume token that can only be used on that slot. We have a sg costume in our group, though I'm not always fond of wearing it. I made sure I got the extra halloween slot for every character I had on my main server so that I could use it for an sg costume slot.

Also can we get rid of the sg character limit? It's outlived it's usefulness.

All kidding aside, it baffles me every time I see someone refer to their character as their "toon"... Maybe it's because I'm a P&P RPGer and not a video gamer, but where in the heck did that originate? I think it sounds pretty silly.

I loath the usage of the word toon. I wonder do those who use that term refer to comic book characters as comic book toons? Perhaps they only read Disney comics.

I can't think of a reason why the devs would want to "avoid" having level 50's generate extra prestige. It sounds like a perfect reward for maxing out your character, to me.

Why would you want anything other than level 50's in your SG then?

You say that as if Prestige is somehow better than sliced bread.

Just because you're in SG mode doesn't mean you automatically get Prestige. You still have to do things.

Bad bad bad. So bad I can't it enough. Almost as bad as the Phase Shift nerf. We had started to collect influence dues in our SG.

So now the word in the SG is to always stay in SG mode to be assured you won't forget to turn it on when you group with other SG members.

That leads to my four costumes being useless. Though I can just opt not to use the SG colors but I still have the ugly and huge symbol stuck on my chest looking quite out of place.

SG Mode with its colors and symbols might be good for some SG concepts, but not all as examples of comic based groups have been mentioned.

Do away with the mandatory symbol and I'll be happy. I can be in SG mode without losing my personal Chest Detail and I dont have to look like I'm a member of the Army of Two-Tone Colored Uniform Wearing Fascist Heroes.

BTW what are the SG colors of the Freedom Phalanx and the Regulators?

If its not good enough for them, then its not good enough for me and my heroes which I hold to quite a higher regard than the NPC signature heroes in the game.

Uhg! We just started our SG over for the second time. Bad bad bad idea!

All I want is my third power tray to be viewable. Or for that matter maybe a fourth as well.

We're fixing the DE spawns in Eden so no more 41's with 30's.

Fixing? I thought that was a feature. I liked that. It allowed a verying group of players to get together and be useful similar to the all-con-purple-monster thing.

Dear god, I am away from the forums for a few months and suddenly everyone is calling their characters "toons". Who started this term and why weren't they killed immediately?
