  1. Hi Folks,

    I didn't really see one of these for Freedom, so forgive me if there is one. Stealing the idea from Virtue, so credit to whomever started the one over there.

    Anyway, I have a few names on the Freedom server I would be willing to trade if anyone has some pretty spectacular names on Victory (my home server). Here's the list. PM me if you have any of the ones I'm looking for and are interested in a trade.

    I have the following names on Freedom available for anyone who might have any of the following available on Victory!

    Available for Trade on Freedom:
    1. Cathedral
    2. Ethereal
    3. Kevlar
    4. Rhinestone Cowboy


    Looking for the following on Victory or Exalted:
    1. Blind Justice
    2. Demoness
    3. Dragonfly
    4. Eclipse
    5. Ethereal
    6. Iron Maiden
    7. Moonlight
    8. Scarab
    9. Scream Queen
    10. Succubus
    11. Tick Tock
    12. Warhead
  2. Pagan Priest

    Name Exchange

    It's still a relevant/good topic, necro'd or not.
  3. I hope there's going to be something in place, like what's illustrated in the example, of where certain costume pieces, auras, etc. might have come from originally so I don't accidentally re-buy them and waste points! I imagine with every costume piece, aura, costume change emote, etc. being sold in the in-game store it's going to be a rather long convoluted list and something that's difficult for someone to remember if they have or not. Right now, it's easy. I have them all. I purchased each and every booster pack. However, as time goes on the list grows and grows I hope it's going to be easy to determine if a particular piece was originally from a booster pack or not.
  4. Thanks guys! I really appreciate the info.
  5. Is the highest Veteran Reward that has been announced 82 months? I know the system is changing but I'm trying to see where they stopped announcing them.

    Great minds think alike! ;-)

    I posted an origin for my character Frostfire (which I played back in the 80's via the Champions pen & paper game) on the forum boards they had up before the game ever launched. By the time I realized the game was out and I joined up, I found that the game had made the character theirs and he was now a villain in The Hollows. I'm not saying they stole the name or the character, maybe they had thought of it on their own. There are times I come up with a name and I think to myself nobody has come up with this I bet! Then of course when I go to reserve it, it's unavaible. It was slightly disappointing however to find I couldn't make my character. I did however snag Firefrost so I did get to make him after all.
  8. I thought the devs said any time they'd do a name scrub they'd give the community a 90-day notice before running the script. Has that changed? The last massive scrub I'm aware of happened in 2007 and I got nearly every name that was on my Want List. I wish they'd do it again.
  9. Congratulations on a well-deserved promotion WW :-)

    I'm curious if bases will be given new content at some point? I'm not a programmer but it seems like it would be easy to grant access to a lot of the components (e.g. water, grass, and various other items) in the game but currently not accessible through the base editor.

    Thank you for your time.

    NEW Power Sets!

    And to compliment Street Fighting, how about a Wrestling power set (Natural of course)? Complete with body slams, hand claps against the head, flying whatchamacallits, etc... Think WWF-style fighting.

    NEW Power Sets!

    Absolutely love the Plant Armor and Insect power set ideas. Only makes sense to have Plant Armor, since there's an offensive set. And the Control Insects power set has great potential! Can you say large dung beetle here to kick your butt!?
  12. Available...

    1. Dark Union (great for a Warshade)
    2. Wild West (great for Dual Pistols)

    NEW Power Sets!

    It always amazes me how others feel the need to invalidate other's opinions just because they don't follow THEIR "rules". I stick by my comments and don't much care if they're too vague for some people. I've gotten my point across, as intended.

    Thanks to all of those who continue to contribute positively to this thread and aren't just here to pick a fight or dump on someone's contributions.

    5. Again... what does this mean exactly? Is this a debuff set? An armor set? And if either, what would it do?
    I was speaking in generalities because of course I don't know what it is to create a new power set from a technical standpoint, all the coding and whatnot, and what can or can't be done. I think the "details" are best suited for the devs to figure out. So, if Shape-changing translates into changing your character into animals because that's the thing that can technologically work at this point, then Shape-changing would be turning your character into different animals with different attacks powers (bear = bear-swipe, eagle = talon attack, etc.).

    Shrinking... again, I'm being general. It could be whatever the devs think it should be given that one, they can do it and two that they're interested.

    NEW Power Sets!

    So, we have Demon Summoning and Dual Pistols to look forward to. What else does everyone want to see?

    Here's my list...

    1. Shape-changing/Morphing
    2. Web-based powers
    3. Water-based powers
    4. Stretching abilities
    5. Shrinking (I'd say Growing but I hear it's pretty much impossible to do at this point)

    Not really a power set per se, but I would love to see personal transports such as: steeds, hover crafts, motorcycles, etc.

    Agreed
  18. Seems this thread keeps getting off track with the never-ending origin discussion... it'd be great if someone would start a new thread for that topic ;-)

    I've summarized everyone's suggestions here. If I missed someone's, sorry. Please just add it after this post. If the devs are interested in ideas for the pack, I'm trying to make it easy for them to find the stuff that matters.

    Great discussion so far guys. Keep the ideas flowing. I'm thinking it might be good to continue these brainstorming sessions as we catch wind of new booster packs coming out. Hopefully, the devs will see what we'd like and incorporate some of it.

  20. Has there been any news about what the next one might be? It seems to me it would be Mutation themed. So far, we've had: Cyborg (Technology-Booster #1), Magic (Magic-Booster #2), Superscience (Science-Booster #3), and Martial Arts (Natural-Booster #4)... that just leaves one origin type left (Mutation).

    Assuming the next Pack IS Mutant-themed, what would you like to see?
  21. Thanks for the clarification guys and my apologies to everyone. I guess I was collapsing the two issues and confusing the responses. Ok, it seems like people are for the name purge (or at least not against it) but they are against tying global handles to character names. Those are my preferences as well.
