  1. Enjoy.


    Not bad, actually. If I were still buying Glee music, I'd probably buy this.

    After google searching, yours was the third video series I saw titled "Captain Outhouse". I don't know the actual chronological order, but I feel less creative each time.

    Just a note: I'm telling myself I unintentionally ripped you off, as yours was the only video that didn't pick that model specifically to go "Lulz black people". Stay classy, internet.

    I am unsure how else NOM could possibly be pronounced, even by a machine. I have always pronounced it to rhyme with "calm" as in a still ocean or lake. or Mom, your female parent. ( same sound) What did you hear?
    Gnome?
    viet (NAHM?)
    Noom rhymes with womb?
    Gnome.

    And he's too busy saving the world and clicking on bombs.
    What? *googles*

    Someone already used this EXACT character name AND model!?!?!!?!?

    Edit: TWO people have already used that character name and model? Gosh dang.

    I was tempted to do that, but that would have maybe been a bit too derivative.

  6. Thank you, thank you. My, what a turn out!

    Now, for many years, Samuraiko has held a near tyrannical hold on City of Heroes promotional videos. She's bombarded us with music videos, mixes, edits, and quality that some would say bests the City of Heroes team itself. For too long have we lived under her shadow and delicious brownies.

    It seems to me that this should change. As is the way taught to me by my mentor, Andrew Ryan, when you want something, you take it. It is that simple, and those who think it is more complex are muddled and obfuscated by petty morality.

    So I have done what most have only dreamed. I have ousted Samuraiko and made a City of Heroes Trailer of a sauce so awesome Teriyaki Chicken would not be worthy to absorb its flavorings.

    In an act of true individuality and bravery, I have toiled through the harrowing first half of my lunch break to bring you all my opus. Let this be played at my funeral, which I imagine will be soon once Samuraiko strikes me down with a bloody vengeance brought on by jealousy and rage.

    Here it is, friends and Samuraiko. The greatest trailer of all time.

    Marcian's Incredible City of Heroes Issue 19: Incarnates. I'd add the word "trailer" in there, but it got cut off and they won't let me edit it.

    Watch it. Watch it and experience the dawning of a brave new age.


    Join the new dawn.
  7. Mr. G is primarily an homage to the G Man of Half Life 2, which is something confirmed at the Comic Con Meet 'n' Greet.

    He may also be a mirror of a Primal character, but I doubt it.
  8. I'm hoping to see a lot more enemies that are built to withstand the full epicness of abilities such as this. True story: I know next to nothing about this game, but my original Mastermind is able to steam roll almost every challenge in this game. I can't imagine what it would be like to Min/Maxers. To Min/Maxers who have these kinds of toys!? It seems like there's hardly an enemy anymore.

    The anticipation is killing me.

    In Disneyland, in the Haunted Mansion, there are two portraits of gentleman dueling with guns. Every few seconds, one of them tries a new angle of shot in the hopes that they will finally land the killing blow. They don't realize that they've been fighting forever or that both of them are already dead. They are eternally passionate about ending this duel once and for all.

    I'm pretty sure if I respond to this post, you and I are one step closer to being that couple.

    Which makes us an anomaly of the most common denominators of each time line.

    If you take the sum total of timelines as the core truth of reality, then ours is the one that's wrong.

    Which means other time lines trying to "Fix" us may be justified.

    I'm trying to think of a graceful way out of this that doesn't involve admitting that I jumped to conclusions despite that being my pet peeve about internet conversations.

    We here at Marcian Public Relations will keep you posted.

    The only solace I find is that I'll be able to serve The Great Mother more fully once I have mastered the Incarnate levels.

    Blessed be the Name of The Great Mother!
  14. I approve. Mostly because I like the Mutt/Indy dynamic and this uses it properly.

    Discuss.
    I contend!
  16. We don't have enough information to discuss, but players intend to do so anyway.

    Discuss.

I just don't see the small bonuses and the level shift making enough of a difference to allow content to be balanced such that it is completable by a decent team that has the Alpha boosts but not by the same team without the boosts.
    The thing is, such negativity will change nothing at this point. The update will be out next Tuesday (we hope), and it's been tested already. Why not hold off and test your theory? As of right now, the negativity exists for its own sake and can't be integrated or reviewed fully by the developers.

    And Samual?

    How many times must the developers reconfirm that they are adding content rebalanced with Incarnate powers in mind IN I19 before people start wondering whether there will be content rebalanced with incarnate powers in mind?

    At least once more.
  18. While the OP's words were true, they led me to believe something other than what was the case! There should be a word for that.
  19. I'm working as fast as I can on them!
  20. Best small print addendum ever.

    It's quite possible Arcanaville balanced it on her coffee break.
