  1. I've got a couple of toons that just can't seem to get their 2nd build... I've visited a number of trainers (notably Foreshadow & Ms Lib) but no option to change.

    I've bugged it butam I missing something?
  2. Ah 've noticed that too... glad it's not just me

    Why do I feel the sudden urge to start singing "Kill the Wabbit, kill the wabbit..." at the top of my voice?
  4. I suggest you use a ruputable spill chucker

    Select head/upper/lower instead of the costume thingie at the top with all the premades, then you can copy colors over entire body and not just legs.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yes but it's a bit annoying

    Like I said, not game breaking but a pain in the wossnames all the same

    A new version with the Issue 13 powersets and IOs should be ready in a couple of days. Working on it!

    yeah mines an old PSU i checked and it doesnt have one.

    Its annoying because at the minute I have a 3d card thats good as nothing but a paperweight, and from the size of the thing it would be a bloody good one.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    All the cards I've bought that need their own power supply have come with the adaptor with them that has a 4 pin molex connection on the other end

    Worth checking whether your supplier has "ommitted" it
  10. Ok making a few new toons, and I notice that it's very hard to affect the entire costume when selecting a different colour. It seems to affect the upper leg but that's it.

    It's not game breaking but it IS bloody annoying
  11. My own feeling on this is that those toons which don't have the badges after a month or 6 are the most loved. It's almost as tho NOT getting them on your favourite toon is, to exuse the pun, a badge of honour

    not been mentioned but how about chains ghost rider and spawn.

    [/ QUOTE ]I'd play a Chain Control Dominator.

    Possibly too close to Clive Barker for the "moral minority"

    Excuse me, but what additional "spandex" costumes do we need? We have dull spandex and shiny spandex, spandex with skirts, spandex with capes, cut away spandex, and lots of different patterns - what else can you do with spandex that we haven't already got?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It was "spandex powers" that were requested - Shorthand for "powers that aren't weapons and are a better fit with the majority of the superhero mileu"

    [/ QUOTE ]

    And yet, still no one provides an example...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Spiderman? He has some of the coolest "non-weapon" powers... but he is stronger than most.

    Daredevil comes reasonably close given he doesn't rely on his billy club so much but is a maser of martial arts too.

    How about Flaming Carrot? Or Howard the Duck?

    well , FIFTH would appear to be a slip of the start of fifth column but that would be a bit too obvious and is most likely exactly the conclusion players are expected to jump to.

    my question would be , what other groups are there that are currently divided into 4 factions ?

    or, Rikti , rikti traditionalist, peacebringer , warshade = 4 alien types. the 5th to appear was the shivan was it ?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You make a good point.

    Positron is reknowned for left-fielding us and giving us false-flags.

    It could simply be a new Fifth Signature Enemy (depending on how you count the existing ones - watch people list 'em ) or it could be something very unrelated.

    However, there was a common cry to "bring back the Fifth Collumn" which they did but not in any great measure.

    Or... a Fifth Environment... Space Station? Under Water?


    Of course, if they merged CoX with LotRO, we could have a whole new foe to combat, the Fifth Gollum /em getcoat

    As cool as that would be, kinda makes the RWZ a bit defunct unless it had a MAJOR radical change. The story though most of all.



    [/ QUOTE ]

    Won't happen. RWZ just got a major overhaul. It'll be a long time before it gets any attention. Boomtown and Eden need more work first
  16. I think these are worthy suggestions but why NCSoft is so tardy at faciliting people who actuallywant to give them money is, frankly, totally beyond me.

    There's clearly a pre-supposition from the bean-counters at NCSoft that nobody wants to pay by any other method than credit card and the odd debit card. An ill-formed and illogical notion. One of the first, and most basic rules of business is NEVER make it a chore for your customers to pay you.

    On top of that improved recovery only goes so far, actually slotting in something that reduces the cost of all those powers being spammed by ~33% is theoretically more effective.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    This is part of the whole "I won't waste slots on boring stuff like accuracy and endurance." People hated ED mostly, I think, because they couldn't 6-slot their attacks for damage and get meganumbers any more. (Okay, that was a bit cynical, but I remember the posts along those lines.)

    This

    Personally I LOVE the Fitness Pool.

    As has already been pointed out you don't need to take it (I usually do) but it also creates diversity.

    Adding Swift is a great bonus that shouldn't be overlooked and Health too gives some significant advantages, especially when slotted right.

    Diversity is the key and I cannot agree with this suggestion I'm afraid.

    So... i15 will be centered around the Fifth... And previous rumours had i15 continuing the story of the Coming Storm.... Are the Fifth the Coming Storm maybe?

    Blitz Kreig!

    (Literally: Lightning War a concept developed by the British army in the 1920s as a reaction to the static trench-warfare of the Great War - it was designed to offer high maneoverability and mobility. The British soon discarded the idea in favour of more traditional tactics, but the Wehrmacht took up the idea, although curiously it was an American journalist who coined the phrase "Blitz Kreig" in 1939.)

    It does fit!

    Purple recipes

    I am never sure what prompts a purple drop

    It seems far more haphazard than most stated occurences
  20. [ QUOTE ]

    I would pay my life savings for that. No, seriously.


    [/ QUOTE ]


    Think they'd need a bit more than 25p to make it viable
  21. Some great concept stuff here

    Well GhostRaptor is off for a few days (he'll be back on Monday) and I'm working half days this week, mainly on behind-the-scene stuff.

    I guess this is what you get for not bothering with holidays until the last moment. :/

    But don't worry Big Brother is watching you...

    Gordon Brown plays CoX?

    That explains a lot of recent policy decisions at least :P
