Perhaps I should have posted this here instead on War Witch's thread, but.... I was just wondering, are there any plans in the future to update the animation/graphics for travel powers? The flight and hover specifically have kind of awkward poses. I know there are macros that can be created for flight, but they have to be clicked on everytime you're in motion, and they deactivate the moment you come to a stop. I was wondering if maybe there were plans to change the default flight "pose" in the options menu? And if you are maybe considering doing the same with hover? The current poses just look so stiff and awkward, and havent been updated since launch. Just wondering.

Hiya War Witch! I was just wondering, are there any plans in the future to allow users to access some of the VIP costumes on tier 9 if we are still a dozen or so points away? I know that seems counter-intuitive, but those costumes are temporary, and I am practically drooling over the new Phoenix wings, however, Im like 12 points away (tier 7) and will never earn that many rewards points before those costume pieces are rotated out and replaced. Are there any plans to maybe issue one "ultra" point per year or something, to allow those of us who have been playing for over a year or two, to access at least one of the VIP costume pieces before they are replaced? Just wondering.

Just ran into a problem where "flight" was picked as a travel power at lvl 4, but was unusable. It appears in the powers menu/box but it is greyed out and can't be placed in the power tray. Even with exemplar to lvl 20 it was still greyed out.

Thanks man! Yea, I dig the IDF pieces a lot, especially for my guy and his story, I just worry about so many other people using it since its the newest costume... I still might tweak it a bit so he looks unique (I REALLY wish my Ascension belt was available b4 50).

Yea, I have no idea how to make it smaller; I too thought it seemed way too big. Ill futs with it later today and see if I can make it smaller somehow. I was actually toying with the idea of a signature like yours featuring all my heroes... If you ever have some spare time, since photoshop is simply BEYOND me, would you ever consider helping me put one together? Not sure how I would reciprocate, perhaps I could send you a ton of influence in-game or something? Let me know.

Not sure if this will work or not... but here is my new toon for Freedom Release: Cameron Magus

Is this the correct thread to ask for a level bump? My beta toon is named "Phoenix Cable" and a lvl bump would be super appreciated!!

This is something Im thinking a lot of folks would be interested in... I'd like to make a suggestion for the following costume piece(s) to be made available to players: A cape that combines the long/wide cape from the "high collar cape" with the "shoulder wraps" that either Statesman or Hero #1 wear, or both! (its a shoulder piece that is essentially the cape itself, wrapping around the shoulders and clasping in front... Statesman's is asymmetrical and draped, and clasped with a ring in front and to the side, and Hero #1's is symmetrical and clasped with a brooch/medallion). Those wraps, used in conjunction with the length and width of the cape from the high-collar cape, would be a wildly popular costume piece I think, and so far people seem to agree. Also,since those pieces already exist, it would be very cheap and easy for the Dev's to make available for us, and with the upcoming microtransaction system, they'd even make money off of it (most definitely!). The regular hero capes are so skinny and short that they look more like bath towels than capes, and those shoulder wraps would compensate for the new width of the cape itself (as well as adding more texture and character to the otherwise overly simplistic capes that we currently earn at lvl 20). It could even be an incarnate piece, or a reward for completing the Statesman tf or whatever... lots of possibilities. Bottom line is its cheap and easy and I think most players would really like it and be willing to spend the new Freedom in-game points to buy them. Win-win. Just a suggestion.

Ha ha ha, Mousedroid you totally nailed it, thats exactly what I feel like lol. School's been brutal this week and Ive been looking forward to today for this reason. Boooo. I guess its my fault for not having more interesting things to look forward to, LOL. I want my Vanguard gear!

So its April 28th, my account has been active since December of last year without any interruption, and I still dont have my vanguard pack! Am I missing something?

Also, some of our members dropped out when W.O.W. released that new expansion and we have 2 openings if anybody is interested... We run on Guardian on Thursday nights at 8pm central time. The race for our fish people is called Serrellians and the link to our forum is http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...92#post3416892

Feel free to drop us a line if you're interested in checking it out...

Hey I just happened to notice this... Im actually making an AE arc to run with my RP group, and our RP toons are all fish people so Im trying to find as many water maps as possible...

I really want to incorporate the leviathan cave that you mentioned... do you or anyone else know if that map is available on AE? I cant seem to find it... Im thinking maybe its called something else? (I unlocked ALL the map packs from AE... ) Please let me know if you get a chance, it would be most appreciated! Thanks!

I hope we are able to run it tomorrow! I've had the week from Hades thanks to college Algebra (Wylde knows all about my war with math), so I could definitely use something to look forward to.

Serrellian arc. Tomorrow. I'm there. I'll even try to be sober. No promises.

Yo, yo, yo!!! My arc is finally done, in the "Nick" of time, thank heavens. It's my first one so I hope that all the variables weave together to form a decent arc; there are 3 EB's and 2 AV's, and its heavy on the RP, hope thats alright.

Yay for tomorrow!!!! Woot! See you all there! (Since "Ouroboros" is the nexus between the human world and the Marlin world, if we could meet there that would be awesome. A little RP before the arc and then we can head to AE in Atlas or wherever)

a.) Im so sorry about last night... I had to leave to do something, and wound up falling asleep! I was exhausted anyway and was playing like absolute crap last night, so it was perhaps a good thing that I dropped early.

b.) Im totally down with doing a Wylde arc! Bring it on senor!

c.) As far as an arc that would connect PCSF with Serrellians: I was just talking to Nox about this last week; about introducing the Serrellians to PCSF "live", on RP night, in-character. Ive been working on an arc forever that gets into Gabes parents and his race, and I asked Nox if there was a way I could introduce the Serrellians with it... but he's actually already working on an initial arc for them... so Ive asked him to slip some things into the end of his arc that will introduce mine, and my arc involves all 3 races (human, marlin and now serrellian). Between those two arcs, would should get a nice, in-character RP intro for the Serrellians to the PCSF.

Nox and Bully: This is the Serrellian I made for the SG. Let me know if I got the coloring right... His name is Crinisus and his bio will follow.

Though I look forward to seeing the new arc's, Im interested to explore the Serrellian idea too!! I tried to follow the directions on the thread as closely as I could and i created one... Ill post a pic on the thread, along with a bio. His name is Crinisus (Blaster: Sonic/ice manipulation). Let me know what you think. Its on the Guardian Server.

Also, I should be on this Thursday; sorry about last week.

Hey all! Real quick, Wylde messaged me on Facebook and told me to relay a message for him: He is not sure if he will be able to make it on Thursday or not, due to some of life's annoying hassles. He hopes to make it, but if not, he will be back on next week.

I should be on Thursday by 8 (central time), see yall then!

Despite how awesome DCUO is, Im gonna stick around for Thursday nights. Especially now that Ny dropped that awesome bomb on us: I love that idea!! I think that would really add an extra dimension to the arcs going forward. Plus, it definitely goes with the world of comics; heroes tend to do that sometimes... (ie Gambit ran with Mr Sinister for a while, recently even.) It opens up the door for a TON of creative writing. I cant wait!

And Wylde, yeah that was before Falkon showed up but we'll get him in the next one- actually we should get one of the whole group tonight... Nox should take it, since he has the fancy new Alienware ;-)

Ha ha ha, "She-so-throny"

Dire, friend, you will be missed. From what I hear, that new expansion is mind bogglingly awesome, so I can empathize. It was fun playing, and have a great holiday duder!!!! (you will most likely be honored in one of our arcs as a clone.... juss'sayin)

Gabs

Had fun tonight guys! Here is that pic... not the greatest but we look fierce

Hey all, so DCU dropped the ball and indefinitely delayed the beta testing for PS3, so as of last night, I signed back up for CoH. Screw'em over there at DC; looks like I took a month off for nothing. Anyway, Ill be on tonight. I know Bully and Nox are gonna be busy (in my home state no less... welcome to the ugliest weather in the country boys), but if the rest of you are on, Im still up for some RPing tonight.

Hey guys, I hate to say it but Im going to need to take a short break from CoH. School is getting harder, and with the DC beta coming out, I wont have any spare time to play anything else. I havent even touched Fable 3 since the day it came out, despite my best intentions. My CoH subsciption comes due on 11/14 and Im not gonna pay it, so that will be my last day online for a couple months. Ill be back in Jan or Feb. Ill post something on here once I sign back up. Sorry to bow out like this but its a bit too much to juggle and I just need a short break. I hope you all have a great holiday season if I dont see you online before then!
Nick

Sorry about last night guys, RL crap came up and I couldnt get on till late. Sounds like lots of folks had to bail last night tho. Next Thursday then.

{{Hey, do you guys mind if I ask what your xbox live names are? Many of you mentioned preordering Fable 3, so I was just wondering; I've been playing it a lot. Mine is Phoenix9026 (naturally).}}

Voyager is a guilty pleasure, like Lady Gaga. And it's just as ridiculous and over the top; but thats why I like it

By the way: I played Fable 3 for 12 hours last night and let me say, it's pretty damn awesome. It has problems of course, but he actually kept most of his promises this time (Pete M) and there is finally some enemy diversity which is pretty sweet. Im anxious to hear what you guys think.

Also I might be a bit late tomorrow night, but if its more than 15 minutes then just start without me and I'll catch up.

Oh and btw, Gabe has been dabbling in shapeshifting magic, so it should be interesting :-)

MMO Overlaod!!! lol Right on. If I had the time and money I might check out the Star Trek one if it had Voyager stuff. I never got into Star Trek except for Voyager, dont ask why. I have all 7 seasons lol. Thats crazy sweet about the uniform, I considered getting a borg one once for Halloween but, best laid plans....

Btw, last night was pretty awesome; Gabe finally got to "meet" Ny and Countess Crey for the first time each. Awesome arc! It was very sad about Ny, but at least we know that she will be properly avenged- because thats how we roll. yo.
