  1. No comments on last week's episode? For shame!

    I liked it.
  2. I'm out this week as well. I guess.. Voodoo's running things?!
  3. GURPS Supers or Old School Marvel Superheroes RPG. FASERIP FTW!

    I understand that, but more than half of these ideas seem serious.

    I wonder if you can use this power inside bases!
  6. This thread has a lot of horrible devs in it. Zwil has one of the few palatable suggestions.
  7. Reboot? Was there more than one Van Helsing film? If it was a singleton, don't we call that a remake?
  8. The Arachnos Flyer transport isn't full size.

    Well damn, now I have to buy it!

    Thanks, Voo.

    I know the Retro Sci-Fi Pack or something else I want is going to hit next week...

    the only thing i am unsure of is how long the flier actually hangs around (it definitely goes away when the user of the power tps, but besides that i dont know how long it actually lasts)
    So what happens if you trigger it and your team is scattered across a few zones? Only those near you get the tp?

    Maybe the game should be renamed to City of Rasputin.
    Truth.

    Two other Super Hero MMOs were almost supposed to spell doom, along with one from Marvel that has yet to materialize.

    CoX 4 Eva!
  12. Same job, but a number of title changes/promotions.
    Same house.
    Same wife.
    My daughter was in pre-school when the game launched, and now she's about to graduate elementary.
    Not sure how many gaming rigs I've gone through, but let's say four or five.

    I'm curious what it looks like. Does the Chaser show up and everyone jumps in somehow, or does it just appear and magically everyone appears at the destination?

    This looks really cool, but I'm still tapped out from last week. I may have to wait to get this one!
  15. I might have bought some, except they also put all the storage on sale so I blew 2,000 PP on that.

    I'm curious how soon we'll see them again.

    Thanks! This is just what I was hoping for.

    Can't believe we lost out on Thrown Weapon Blast... let's hope that's get put on the fast track at some point.

    Corruptors get the same numbers on many buff powers as defenders (many buff powers don't obey AT buff modifiers)

    A Corruptor will always out-dps a defender. A Defender will not always out-support a Corruptor.
    You put it better than I did. If they fixed this, I'd consider rolling a Defender... I love Defenders... but Corruptors are categorically better right now.
  19. To be honest, I just wanted a Summary, not a transcription. A full transcription would be the opposite of useful.

    That picture just makes me sad I can never attend these events.

    Wait Radiation Armor beat out Thrown Weapons?! Now I'm depressed!

    How can you turn your back on a film that gave us such gems as:

    "Who run Bartertown?"
    "Two men enter, one man leaves!"
    "Break a deal, face the Wheel!"

    And basically Tina Turner's whole performance.

    Beyond Thunderdome was a masterwork of the genre, and not at all depressing like Mad Max or The Road Warrior. (I think we were actually discussing the second movie of the series, but Mad Max is much more grim, I think)
  22. Well, I was just hoping to cajole someone in the community to do it for us with this thread... I didn't expect you guys to do it...

    FPARN!

    EDIT: Bah, too slow!
  23. Because of Vigilance. I love Defenders, but Corruptors have a much better inherent power, better DPS, and they don't seem to suffer much in the buff/debuff/heal department.

    Give Defenders a better inherent and I'll come back to the AT I first loved. As it is, I'll keep cranking out Corruptors.
