    When was this? I know those shoulders had been doing that for a while but the DP patch seemed to fix it, at least for me.

    Dual Pistols QQ

    So it turned into a derogatory way to say some one is being whiny. But I could be wrong.
    That what the first definition on urban dictionary says.
  3. From how the discussion for Min FX on dark went, I get the impression that the Dev have no intention of giving Elemental sets that option.

    I don't think Sapphic_Neko was referring to the Alpha/Omega costume pack but rather the costume sets that should come with Going Rogue itself.

    If your talking about the bug I think you are, it was fixed in patch that can be found in the TitanNetworks forums here.

    Those should work, just note you'll need to be careful in combat because pressing your attacks too fast can keep it from working.

    You have to go to the US version of the website to see it, which may require some work around on your part.

    Dynamic Combat

    For anyone interested, BaB actually addressed removal of rooting in the "Wouldn't It Be Great If..." panel from Hero-con (podcast can be found here).

    While I can't see a reason why this SHOULDN'T happen, I can give you a reason why it most likely won't - power customization, as of right now, does not appear to be able to change power activation sequences, and it's activation sequences that call a weapon and define which animations are played. Because a weapon is a set-wide parameter and a costume piece written into the set itself, this is not a simple change to make, and would likely herald the ability to pick to use weapons for non-weapon powers and vice versa.
    Bab has already said he believes non-weapon to weapon swaps are doable, see here.

    What happens when the tank starts targeting the enemy through his teammates? Can the target chain go through to your target's target's target? How about attacks which don't require targets to fire? What's to stop the tank from dropping his target to get the bonus?

    If I remember right his family made their money as arms dealers, and when his brother challenged him to make something "useful," it went haywire and killed the brother. He goes on to make weapons that get used in the American Civil War, and finally starts using his weapons in his own criminal ventures in the 1930s.

    Commander, CaptainMidnight and myself were already on the list, only Pirhana is new since last count so 3 spots left.

    edit: I was going to post the updated list but I keep getting an error.

    Shouldn't that be Sunday, March 7th?
  16. Here's My attempt at a theme that I don't think has come up yet.

    Amerika Korps



    Reichsman



    Blitzkrieg



    Strahlung



    Basilisk



    Frau Geistlich



    Straßenkämpfer

    Along comes Chriffer and he can see the sales prices we have set.

    Sales Price
    265 million
    5 million

    Remember in the market the highest bid goes to the lowest seller. Anyone that sets their sales price too high just sits there unsold. So do you honestly think he's going to pay the highest sales price listed? Heck no he's going to see your bid and he's only going to pay 5 million. Final result is that you just got screwed out of 260 million inf.
    While this situation is a potential problem, it should be so rare as to be almost ignorable as it requires a very desirable IO to have a significant span of time in which there is no demand for it.

    Why wouldn't a seller list the item in this situation. If the LOTG +recharge is really worth the higher value some one will eventually come along and pay it, and with more potential buys on the market than off, the market is the better choice.
  18. Don't know if Im too late but here are mine.


    Statesman

    Positron

    Citadel

    Synapse

    Manticore: In case an explanation needed on this one, I was trying to make him fit with Wyvern.

    If she did not travel through time, does she age at a reduced rate due to her parentage because it does seem unlikely that she would have a child Ms. Liberty's age if she was already an adult in 1963 ...

    While reduced aging is probable, it not entirely necessary if both Monica and Alexis put off having kids until their early to mid 30s which doesn't seem like too much of a stretch.

    If you check out the Hero-con podcasts (I think it was "Wouldn't It Be Great If") one of the devs mentioned they had figured out how to put Calvin Scott's TF back into the game.

    Not seeing why the seller wouldn't just list it for the 260M and hope another player comes along and bids more, any seller should be able to figure out he isn't going to get the highest price in the last 5 unless he's willing to wait and he certainly isn't going to find someone willing to over pay be 65M just for the privilege of trading off the market. The only change is the seller now knows what price he has to undercut and the buyer knows what bid he needs to beat to get the sale made now.

    I remember Posi said he'd look into it at hero-con but I don't recall anything saying they were actually changing it.

    Athletic Shorts will work but it's Shorts you want for plugging the hole with minimum leg coverage.
  25. To get Super Speed running on water, it would first have to be turned into a movement mode (like fly, walk and Ninja Run) so it could play different animations.
