Shadowblaze

I honestly think we only did it for Shields and Dual Blades. I wonder why we haven't done that again, to see what the general populace wants to see released soon, be it powers, costumes, zones, whatever. We do have those All Things Art and related threads, but those can be clogged by a few vocal people. I'd love to see more polls be run so we have a little control on what is being brought out. Might help sales too if you let us decide what we want to see on the market next.

Anyone care to spoil what the villains get to learn that the heroes don't? I don't really play redside at all anymore.

Not (completely) downing what's on the market this week, but being online when the Gunslinger costume pieces popped up on the market only to see them disappear made me one sad panda. They looked so awesome, and now I've gotta wait. And didn't they just put the Autumn aura on beta YESTERDAY? The heck is point of testing it there if you release it the next day on live? Either way, another 'meh' week for the market, but not as bad as last week, though that would be pretty hard to do.

Hope we get Gunslinger costume pieces before titan weapons honestly.

And nevermind, they just took it back off, must have been a mistake. Guess we just get the stupid aura this week...

And from the items put on the market in beta, we know what either next Tuesday or the Tuesday after's items will be: Pilgrim hat, German Shepherd non-combat pet, and an autumn path aura. Not bad by any means (the dog is pretty cool), but I'm really itching for a full costume set, especially the Gunslinger set. You'd think when they advertised that costume set in a magazine before Freedom hit, that it would have been released relatively soon. But about 2 months in, and we're still waiting on it.

EDIT: Holy crap! You weren't kidding! I love you Paragon Studios!

I CONSTANTLY hit the character limit on my bios. I don't tell a life story, but I usually explain their origin, how their powers work, why they're in Paragon City/Rogue Isles, and what their ultimate goal is. I'd prefer if they doubled it, to like 2048 characters. And me personally, I love reading a good bio. If it's good, the length really shouldn't matter that much to you.

That's fine, but then they need to give us cool stuff that's on that level. Not 'Undead Survival Kits' the day before the Halloween event ends. That kind of disorganization and laziness isn't gonna fly any more when you have 2 other free to play superhero MMOs. They need to step up their game, and soon.

Decided to take a look at the store that was referenced and...why do they get cool stuff like that, and we get lame 'undead survival kits'?! I'm sorry, but Paragon really needs to get their act together when it comes to market releases. We REALLY need some more cool releases, because the competition is trouncing us when it comes to things to buy on the stores. I can kinda see why they don't want us to reference competition now, it makes us look bad by comparing their goodies to ours. It's a good thing the gameplay in this game is leagues above theirs.

(I know this thread will be gone by tomorrow/Monday, but I'm sorry, tornado flight>>>>undead survival kit.)

P.S. Oh, and we don't have pool power customization yet because they want to find a way to charge us for it. :P

I've never seen a power give me a headache so quickly. I like the general idea of the animation, but the quick, wobbly pulse is really making my head hurt. Can we maybe get a different animation, even an alt animation, that, I dunno, 'flows' better? Maybe just a circle of energy around you that rolls in gentle waves or something? Anyone else feel the same way and/or get headaches from this power?

I loved the story content from First Ward. I just really hope that Sorceress Serene isn't really dead, because she is probably my favorite new 'villain'. Plus, the ice aura on one hand and the fire aura on the other is pretty awesome. Also makes me want to have a murder of crows teleport customization once we get that. :P

If the books that came out are canonical at all, on Primal Earth, the Furies were allies of Marcus Cole and came back to Paragon City with him after he got his powers. Maybe in Praetorian Earth, he did something to betray them back then and they're pissed? And yeah, I know, I doubt the books are a reliable source, just something to think about.

Wow, 12 pages of pretty united dislike for this week's release. Hopefully they heard our voices loud and clear on how we feel about junk like this being released on the market.

Content: Bad
Timing: Bad
Pricing: Bad

I really hope for next week's release, they knock it out of the park, but I have a feeling I'm going to be let down again. Most likely going to be the 10 minute, 3 mission Signature Story Arc next week. I'm thinking those will be much cooler after the whole 7 part arc is out and you can do it all at once.

I'm probably just irritated because I've been itching for something to spend points on in the market and nothing since Street Justice has interested me one bit. I'm looking forward to some non-melee powersets (it's really too bad the time manipulation sounds make me grind my teeth or else I'd try it) and some costume piece bundles. Yeah, we got the Halloween bundle a few weeks ago, but nothing in it appealed to me. Think I got the bats aura just in case I wanted to make a goth character down the road after the Halloween event was over.

Really chomping at the bit for that Gunslinger set, if the concept art is anything to go off of and I think a lot of people were hoping that it would be coming out this week.

But, if Titan Weapons was supposed to have been this week, but it wasn't ready, I wish they would have just switched it with another week that had stuff ready to go instead of making this weak consumable bundle that will be useless after tomorrow.

Sorry to join in on this hate party, but I must agree....this is about as lame as it gets when it comes to weekly releases. Downright shameful showing this week, Paragon Studios.

Yup, some temp powers for fighting zombies. REALLY awesome... Didn't think it could get lamer than last week's release, but they managed to top it. Another lame week for the market. And next week is probably the signature story arc with 3 whopping missions. Sorry to be so negative, but these releases lately have been really sad, in my opinion. I'm sure there's someone who will be ECSTATIC about some lame temp powers that will be useful for like 1 more day when the event ends and zombie invasions are much rarer, but I'm not one of them. I really hope they have something cool soon, because I'm getting rather sick of disappointing Tuesdays.

I was thinking that once this current signature story arc is over, it'd be cool to have a 'major character switches sides' arc. Sure, we have Maelstrom and Desdemona, but they were kinda MADE for switching sides, really. It'd be more shocking seeing one of the Freedom Phalanx and one of the heads of Arachnos switching to villain/hero. I know it'd be expected, but I think I'd like to see Ghost Widow switch sides.

*Ghost Widow Arc Spoilers*










I always felt bad that you had to betray her when she was trying to become human again. I think if they maybe did this in the arc, and she was free from being attached to Arachnos, but still somehow possessed her powers, she might have a change of heart because of the hero (your character) that helped her become human again.










*End Ghost Widow Arc Spoilers*

Hero side, I'm not sure who would become a villain. It'd have to be done in a way not to make them seem too much like their Praetorian counterpart.

Anyways, any story arc involving the signature characters that you would like to see?

See how it's blurry over far away stuff, but on close stuff, it kind of makes the exact shape of whatever is closer sharper? Like, it is sharper in the exact shape of that tree, and over my head and ears. Looks weirder in motion. Just wondering if it's supposed to do that or if it's some graphical glitch on either my graphics card or in the game itself.

I'd much rather have Carnival of Darkness COSTUME PIECES around Mardi Gras.

Looks like that's it for this week. Lame few weeks for the market, in my opinion. =\ 3 mission story arc (and 2 helmets), Halloween pack (not big on Halloween themed stuff), and costume powers. Here's to hoping next week is something better. I'd prefer the Gunslinger set or Titan Weapons, though I think Titan Weapons needs a lil more tweaking before going on live.

(Again, all in my opinion, I'm sure some people loved the fish heads and snake hair, just not my thing.)

Edit: And now that I think about it, did they remove all these before so they could release em 3 at a time on dead weeks? That's pretty weak.

I always make original characters, but sometimes I get the inspiration to make a character as if he/she were in a specific game's/anime's/etc world. My dual pistols character was inspired by Wild Arms, my Street Justice scrapper's gloves are actually his partner in 'weapon' form, and I have another character inspired by Eureka Seven that is able to use the planet's 'thoughts' as energy.

Though, playing a Wild Arms game recently, I've started wishing we had cool guns like these:

Really wish we'd get that Gunslinger costume set soon...

Meh, probably first pack I won't be buying. Was really hoping for Gunslinger. But, I'm sure there's stuff in there for others to enjoy, even if a few items in the pack are broken (Ascot is hovering behind head, new cape isn't placed right either, big hole you can see through to side of head, etc.) I think they might wanna throw these things on test to make sure they are working correctly before putting em up on the market.

If the rewards are per character, it would be nice that if you claim the same item a second time on the same character, you'd get a one time (per time you choose it as a reward) voucher that you could claim on any other character. So you could get a bunch of vouchers to hold on to and use when you have a better character idea that could use the aura/costume change emote down the road. But yeah, I know that's not going to happen...

Yeah, my character uses a purple shade of poison, and uses a purple shade of the bubbles path aura. Being surrounded by puke green fumes is gonna ruin her look.

Man, you guys sure are making it sound like it's certain that Street Justice is coming out on Tuesday. Better not be getting my hopes up for nothing. :P
