    Truth. Watch Pirates of the Caribbean and then Sleepy Hollow and try to tell me that Jack Sparrow and Ichabod Crane are the same character. They're very much... not. Toss in Ed Wood and Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas into the mix and you'll find that once again, yes while most of Depp's roles are eccentric personalities, they're not the same kind of eccentric.

    Furthermore, Depp is was named 2010's highest paid actor. That's something.

    In any case, the Power Loyalist is still placated, and since there's a 90% chance he's remained a villain through his 20 - 50 career, he hasn't run the Jenkins arc. Loyalty to Cole may still well be his prerogative.

    Now it would be cool if they added a story arc where you can help Cole, but you're only doing it to undermine his efforts from the inside. Then they can use the branching options to allow you to turn on him at the last minute, or to allow Loyalist players to stay loyal. That way they'd have an arc for former Loyalists that everyone else can also do, villains and rogues get to be underhanded jerks, and heroes have to do vigilante things. Since villains have to do Rogue things in all the other co-op content, it's only fair.
    Something where villains can frustrate both the efforts of the heroes and Cole would be nice as well.

    Wow, there was an AV in that? All I remember was the pew pew pew all over the place.

    Hopefully there'll be strike forces for old die-hard Loyalists which involve helping Cole's invasion efforts.
  7. I can only hope they add challenging opponents for Incarnates to fight once all of this is finished, like oh... the legendary Battalion.

    Sorry lil anime, No pretties, no watchy.
    I started watching because they fought ghosts and monsters. I have a soft spot for horror....

    I assume this was not back in the day. Because you acheieved a miracle if you did this back in I7.
    I wasn't subscribed that far back.

    Me and that guy with the Alan Moore icon were talking about the LRSF.
  13. Meh. You pretty much listed the only things origin does do. Why fix something that's not broke?
  14. Huh, I guess Blood_Beret was right about that "grid" thing. It just looked so funny as I'm used to seeing more obvious missile launchers like on a Farragut.

    Are you sure? It looked like a hold to me.

    I dislike the Statesman and Recluse TFs, as well as the Tin Mage and Apex TFs, because they are difficult. When I state my reason for not doing them, however, I'm usually told that they're not difficult at all and I'm just not trying hard enough. I tend to then tell people to go to hell.

    *edit*
    And, thanks, but I'm not sure I want American police where I live.
    Well maybe you do need to "lrn2ply" as the first time I went through it was a success. And it was a PuG too to boot!
  17. It doesn't look armed enough to even qualify as a destroyer. I only count one gun there.
  18. Jusa grammar nitpick, but the word is "SINCE." "Sense" is an ability that allows us to perceive the world, such as sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell. "Sense" is also the ability to make sound decisions. "Since;" however, implies a passage of time.



    Also, yeah... I've reported that bug a couple times myself. It's annoying, but it isn't as irritating as the elevator bug was as this mostly occurs in places where I don't need my pets.

    Although there is that occasional outside instance....
  19. It didn't even get to be stillborn; it was aborted.
