Quote:Bah, I'm with Forbin on this. Flying inside missions? Don't you... y'know... bump into the architecture? I know I do when I make that quick retreat during the timed escape in the end of the villainside Protean mission.Originally Posted by TrueMetal
Most of my flight characters use fly all the time (hover during combat obviously), also for travel inside missions. -

The thing I always found odd is the Possessed Scientists being level 50+ threats. You'd think the mere humans given powers of Thorn Casters wouldn't be as big a threat as the Mu descended Thorn Wielders but hey, go figure!

Quote:Ha, I really like this one. Armitage really did strike me as being this crazy guy with his wild claim that he's from the future. "You've got to stop the Rikti from conquering the world! I came back to tell you how to do it!"Originally Posted by Zamuel

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Good luck trying to enforce this!

Yeah, really; I see higher numbers on my Frankenslotted IOs.

Quote:Wow, it's been a long time since I last read that history.Originally Posted by SlickRiptide
In the "Globalism and the 90's" section of the history backgrounders.
That's what I was just looking at and thus scratching my head in puzzlement. It's not there. The only controversy mentioned on them is the "heroing for hire" method of their business.Quote:I'd have to check with Paragon Wiki to be sure, but I think that the history plaques also make a brief, oblique reference to it.
Well, then like the dear Crey tanks, the truth of a conspiracy surrounding Hero Corps and increases of costumed villains is only conjecture as well. There might not actually be any truth to it on Hero Corps' end (how many evil corporations do we need, anyway? Good corporations exist in comics too, y'know: Wayne Enterprises, Stark Industries, etc). Perhaps one of their previous enemies just simply has a bone to pick with them and sends minions to hassle them....Quote:Oh, I have no doubt that it was Crey that did it. I've posted my own take on the situation a couple of times upstream already. Still, it's all speculation at the current time and has to be treated as such when talking about what it all means. -
Quote:Exactly where is that said?Originally Posted by SlickRiptide
No, the explanation I referred to is the explanation for the rise in super-villain crime in cities that contract out to Hero Corps.
I think the timing from the razing of Hero Corps' Paragon City HQ and Countess Crey's offer to bankroll them a new HQ kind of implies that yes, it was Crey tanks that were responsible.Quote:The Crey connection to Hero Corps is pretty well limited to Paragon City and then (ignoring the possibility that Crey Tanks were the armored raiders that razed HC Paragon) only after they were threatening to pull out of Paragon City. If Crey has anything to do with them now that they're back in town, we haven't heard about it. -
Quote:Technically, Crey IS Hero Corps' Villain "Corp."Originally Posted by SlickRiptide
Well, you just explained why there aren't any Hero Corp story arcs. /shrug
I suppose that the story could be that you prove once and for all that there is NOT any corruption and, in fact, that Hero Corp has a shadowy nemesis, Villain Corp, that has been deliberately targeting them all of these years. heh -
Yeah, Hero Corps seems to be a pretty legit corporation. Crey's attempts to take them over should not be seen as a "taint" in Hero Corps, as they're pretty much the victims at this point.
I'd love to see some story arcs that revolve around Hero Corps and Crey's attempts to snatch them into its web. -
Y'know, more tights patterns and textures couldn't hurt. Hell, the patterns alone kind of help spice up some of that metallic armor too.
Thankfully, in Issue 21, it does look like we're getting a new texture for tights. So everyone wins anyway. -
Quote:YOU are rude all the time. You're needlessly snarky and insulting and downright patronizing in just about every post you make and you have the gall to tell another person "to not be rude?" Are you freaking kidding me? Can it be really that possible to be so insurmountably arrogant?Originally Posted by Xanatos

No need to be rude mate. We can disagree without having to offend each other.

Looks like something straight out of a comic book!
Wait...no it doesn't... -

Quote:Well, considering that the idiot playing him was playing him like a tanker....Originally Posted by Amy_Amp
That blaster was so going to faceplant in the trailer, but they ended it. Tutorial zone looks vastly more difficult than what we currently have.
Seriously, blasters should not grab that much aggro. -

Well, since we're choosing who should voice who, put in my vote for Laurence Fishburn as Dark Watcher.

Was another step added to character creation really necessary?

Quote:Well, you probably should since it's the original thread about the teaser images. I would kind of expect any new teaser images to show up in the thread that started the topic.Originally Posted by Pyro_Superior
Sorry, I don't look in-depth at an 8 page context and expect to find new material.

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT
I'm going to guess that Hero 1 will be back and healthy soon with Vanguard hopefully with these new arcs. And I hope Statesman or Manticore dont get killed off as these 3 are my favorites signature heroes. -
I say, if we ever finally go up against Rularuu himself (and actually fix whatever makes such a gigantic mob problematic to fight in the mechanics), that should be pretty epic.

There's also the Valkyrie wings from the Valkyrie pack. They're rather feathery (with armor).
