I really wish NCSoft would hire you for concept art for purposes of costume design. Draw stuff like that and then tell Sexy Jay to make them happen.

Normal... perverted... pfft.



So, are you wondering if your liking breasts (of any size) is outside the normal male behavior patterns? The answer is no. Men like breasts. Some like them VEEERRRRY BIG. Others like small, and some don't pay attention so much to size as to shape or... other details. There is nothing wrong with liking, appreciating, and enjoying breasts --even big ones-- that should be called into question by anyone because you're playing a game where female characters' breast size can be customized.

If you pushed the chest slider all the way to the right on all your characters, I would say that you're sending a clear indicator to everyone that you really, really like 'em big... but I still wouldn't say you have any sort of problem. Clearly, however, the girl you are referring to does have issues. It could be self-image, as pointed out. It could also be that she likes you and is put off by your alleged fascination with big'uns. It might even be something entirely different. I can't know because I haven't spoken with her enough to have any kind of handle on who she is.

I do know that she is the one with the problem, though. You're better off ignoring her comments and, if necessary, her alleged friendship. I have friends who occasionally tell me I have a problem with this or that or whatever... but because they're my friends, its usually just a friendly comment rather than riding me about it. They can let go of my issues because, whatever they are, they are mine --not their's. And honestly, I know I have other quirks that I consider problems that my friends never say anything about... because they are my friends and don't try to pick me apart and "fix" me. Friends are good. Good friends are better. Friends who complain and/or try to change you... probably not the best choice.

Also maybe give it a low magnitude (is that possible) so that you can't necessarily affect everything with it. Definitely pets, minions, and lieutenants... maybe bosses, but not elite bosses or AVs.
Too powerful, people are going to naysay the heck out of it because Leaping's level 20 power gives status protection from KB and this is only a level 14 power. Drop Hold and give it a higher endurance cost than acrobatics to account for 2 mez protections, or drop both Sleep and Hold. Then again, Combat Jumping is level 6 and has a resistance to immobilize and a defense bonus, so...

The only problem with this power is what if someone chooses Air Superiority instead of Hover at level 6? Then they have an air charge with no ability to fly. :/
How about a knock back attack? Use the hand clapping animation of Super Strength -> Hand Clap (and add in an extra bit to include animate wings if present on the character). Make it a cone effect instead of PBAoE, and KB only (weaker magnitude)... drop the whole disorient thing. Maybe add in some short duration -Fly, but not nearly as much as Air Superiority.

Love this.

Can't think of an alternative, but this... I just can't see it.

I like Confuse as an option. Instead of the target being truly confused, you've just persuaded him to side with you... until he has a chance to think things through and come to his senses.

Easily done just like Shield Charge but without the shield. Reduce damage to be in line with pool power effects and no problem.

God yes!! I'm on board for this whole idea for nothing more than this! I've hated being on a team and watching a teammate who split off from the team slowly die because I can't get to them in time to either heal or take aggro or what have you. Recall Friend should work, but sometimes you get stubborn players who won't accept the TP.


The Leadership one is fine. It needs to be weaker than the standard Mind Control -> Confuse power (lower magnitude, shorter duration) and have a different animation (maybe use the chat emote) instead of the waving your hands mystically at your target... but the idea is perfect.

I know, and I am in favor of having the Deadly Apocalypse whenever someone turns in Halloween salvage all year 'round and NOT just for the Halloween season. My explanation is that it doesn't have to be Halloween for that event because it doesn't especially have a Halloween feel to it (until pumpkin man shows up).

Meanwhile, and call me a traditionalist on this one (I know there's plenty of non-seasonal zombie movies & video games and so on out there), zombies just feel especially Halloweeny to me and should ONLY happen during the Halloween season.

Because heroes are assumed to be innocent. Meanwhile you could have a villain who's only a villain because of circumstance and the majority of the populace assuming he's guilty.

We need official Virtue T-shirts that say that.

Well, flat-chested may not be possible, but if I were going to try to make such a thing, this is how I'd do it:




Note that physique, shoulders, chest, and legs sliders are all the way minimum (left) while waist and hips are at about 75% to 80% (right of center). Skip on tights and go to the Armored top for a less breasty profile (same smoothing effect you get when wearing robes). I chose the flak jacket texture to give her that leather top look like she's got in the movie. Add a skirt and some tights --in retrospect, the patent leather pattern on tights would probably look better for her legs. Then go with the sport boots, gloves, and shoulders, resistance belt, and short points cape. To top it off, wedge hairstyle and mask 4 on Young Face 2 (adjust face sliders til you get it the way you like).


Not that I would condone using such a character since the trademark is obviously owned. :P

I'm going to have to agree with everyone commenting about the demons being too loud and too frequent with the roaring.

I'm also not very fond of the kinetic melee sounds. Its also too loud and the buzz is too annoying when you hear it over and over again. I mean, it sounds cool once... but the frequent attacks have me turning off my speakers and getting no audio cues from the game at all just because I can't stand listening to KM anymore. I won't even play KM... tried and it got old fast. Having to deal with KM teammates... speakers off.

How can there NOT be a journalist day job? Thanks to a certain spaceborn hero in red & blue, its just iconic.

I think we need some kind of Independently Wealthy day job that gives us a small boost to influence/infamy earned.

It doesn't have to be Halloween to have a deadly apocalypse show up.


Also, I just want to say that it doesn't seem so difficult to acquire any of the badges from any of the Halloween event(s). This past saturday, I acquired all of them on two different characters. One at level 20 and the other at level 40. This coming weekend, I'm going to try on a newbie blaster (only level 8).

I could easily tolerate exaggerated breasts... if they didn't look rediculously fake. I'd be okay with regular fake, but even fake boobs don't look like COH's chest slider maxed at to the right. Its not a size issue for me, its a shape thing. And its a shape they need to fix.

Heck, even Power Girl's oversized knockers in the image posted previously look more realistic.
