Shadowblaze

Now if they could just give us a time frame for Water Blast as well, I'd be good. >_> *cough*I REALLY want Water Blast NAO.*cough*

Kinda surprised this topic didn't get nuked today. I just wish these would get fixed. Hell, I'd love more hair decorations in general. Kinda helps vary things up when you have limited hair selections.

See what I'm talking about now? It's easier to see in motion, but see how the veil appears to be in front of the bow both from the front and the back? It's because the bow is transparent on the one side. Also, notice in Pic 2 how you can see the cow skull, even though the bow should be blocking it from that angle?

Nice to see that my topic has become such a hotbed of intelligent discussion...

Seriously, they've been busted since they came out in November. The bows are taking the transparency of the veils. 7 months now. This seems a bit long. Especially with something we had to pay extra for. Anyone else irritated they've gone unfixed this long?

(And some options without veils would be awesome too.)

Kinda hoping we'll see Throwing Weapons down the road since it took second, but for the near future, I'll be happy with water blast. Been waiting 8 years for that one. Perfect combo to me would be a Water Control/Water Assault Dom though.

Bleh, Radiation Armor. I turned the Ustream off as soon as that was picked. I'll tune back in for the Costume workshop, but making an armor set has to the most boring panel ever. Like 7 of the powers of any armor set are thematically the same. Hope they still end up trying throwing weapons, that would've been a much better set to do a panel on. Don't get me wrong, armor sets are fine, but there's really not much to discuss about em except for number tweaks. Hope the costume workshop doesn't disappoint as well...

For all I care, they can wait til July to release Staff Fighting, if it takes em that long to fix the godawful sounds. Not touching that set with a 10 foot pole (lulz!) as is.

The one inside the midnighter club. Didn't recognize that one. The Tsoo fight one I recognize as the tech naginata or whatever it's called in-game.

Awesome video, nice work as always.

Quick question though. What was that staff used when showcasing Staff Fighting near the end? It's not one of the default models, so wondering if you just somehow demo edited that in or if it's a badge reward or something.

Well, I'm hoping that Staff Fighting not being mentioned for release in March in the Producer's Letter means that they're going to take the time to do a third pass on the sounds. Not buying it as is with those atrocious over the top sounds lol. I'll gladly take Beast Mastery first. BTW, anyone think that the week Beast Mastery is released, there'll be a sale on unlocking the Mastermind AT for the freepers and Premiums?

So, I'll have a week to play before Tales of Graces F takes up all my time. :P Well, I'll probably come back for double XP to get my Dark/Dark Dom as high a level as possible.

It seems all the fixes made to the set on beta haven't made their way to live yet. Those changes will probably come with I22 next week or the week after.

Eh, I like when the devs post something snarky. Sometimes some of these self-entitled, overly negative posters deserve a snarky response. Hell, I've probably deserved some snark for some of the stuff I've posted. :P

Oh wow, I wish they wouldn't have abandoned the Celestial bow, that thing looks awesome.

*Minor Spoiler from 1st Mish*





Oh, not fair, Penelope Yin has psionic weapons. I want those. And some other cool psychic attacks I've never seen and a really cool looking pet.

Ok, Dink, you are freaking awesome.

If you're still looking at this thread tomorrow and see this, is there any way you could maybe also fix the Gunslinger bows sometime? They're all taking the transparency from the veil and just look really, really awful. *cough* Maybe make some no-veil options too. *cough*

Again, though, Dink, you are really making yourself everyone's favorite dev lol.

Meh, maybe hate was a strong word, but it does bug the hell out of me. If we ever have a City of Heroes 2, that's what I'd want most, costume wise. That, and a 3 color system.

One thing that has always bugged me is that you can only use one color on any option 'with skin'. I guess the skin color counts as the second color, but man, I've always thought that that limitation really hurts what could be some cool looking costumes. Has this ever bothered anyone else?

Well, you guys should know by now, they don't go back and fix art/geometry of things they release unless it's a massive clipping issue. It's 'release and forget' with them. On to the next shiny! No looking back!

Been looking forward to this one. Dunno what else is new though.

Personally, I think we could use more normal clothing. The Pocket D pack only has 1 shirt, a pair of pants, and metallic dress. Lot of room for stuff in that area. I'd be happy if we could get some male shorts and some short boots/shoes that don't go all the way up to the knee. Though to do that, they'd really have to fix the male calves, as those things are ginormous and ugly. I wish we could do 2 color costume pieces on tops that have skin showing, but that seems to be some technical hurdle they can't get over.

I'd love some kind of 'modern fantasy' set like stuff you see in modern settings that have some kind of magic in their universe, like what you'd see in Final Fantasy and a lot of anime.

Also, an 'accessory' pack would be awesome. No overall theme just a lot of minor things here and there that you can add to your character to differentiate them from others wearing a similar outfit. Chest details, necklaces, shoulder pieces, maybe some tattoos, etc.

Just a few ideas anyways.

If B is picked, can we at least make it so the glow isn't the same color as the material directly under it like what you did with the Elemental Order set? White glow on white fabric just kind of loses the effect. I'd much prefer to have black fabric and then have a green glow and green secondary colors, for example.
