So a new system would have to be perfect and even if they gave an option so you don't have to pick one, it would still be bad? You can't really keep everyone happy no matter what you add. People hated the pvp changes and they are still in effect.
The examples I gave weren't good ones. I used them as examples of what the perks could be. I can't come up with something perfect that everyone would like because i know someone would think it would think it was terrible if it took away from capping their character.
These would be perks attached to your origin. Even if they were added it wouldn't be a case of oh we can't this or we can't have that. Because they could easily be made similar but not exactly the same. The devs can easily add a system of that sort. Calling it "Origin power pools" or something that are only active to your origin. I can't piece together extreme details but if people were still upset about an option to pick not to use it then idk. -
Quote:Yeah this is why I wanted someone to pick it apart and not just throw it to the wind. I wasn't able to think of all 5 perks but another one I had an idea about wasOriginally Posted by Twilight_Snow
I think the idea is ok. Using body builder as an example, I think it would be better if it doesn't take away 5% resistance, but maybe a slower runspeed for example(conceptually, you are less agile when your body gets bulky). The idea is that people tend to maximize certain attributes, and the perks will lead them picking or avoiding certain origin. The idea is ok if the perks enhance and take away attributes that most people can't or bother to maximize. (maybe runspeed that I mentioned is not good either if the character uses stone armor)
Natural- Flame resistant clothing
Mutant- cold blooded
Each give you an increase in fire resistance but with something negative to go with it. With cold blooded it can make your slowdown resistance go down just a bit. With the 5 pickable option I still think adding an option to it so you don't have to take a perk would keep the classic players happy. That way they can't complain about the perks taking away something. -
Quote:Heres the thing. There would be 5 different types of perks for each origin. Each doing something similar. If they made it respec able. Then you could rechose your perk. It wouldn't be a matter of choosing a different origin because each perk will be the same but with different set backsOriginally Posted by Solicio
No thanks, I'd really prefer that origins didn't affect gameplay in that manner, especially since you can't respec into a new origin.
-
For each origin there could be 5 perks. Each giving a pay out that only effects Pve and the arena, while also giving the option to turn them off before the patch. They would not work in pvp zones though.
Each perk could give the same Pay out but with different negative aspect.
Like for natural.
Bodybuilder- 10% strength to each attack but takes away 5% from resistance
Mutants
Mutated strength- 10% strength to each attack but takes away from regen.
This is an idea I came up with in the middle of the night. i'm looking for people to pick it apart for me. -
Quote:I just assumed. When I first saw that trailer I have never touched the forums or even looked on the site. I was just wondering.Originally Posted by Lemur Lad
Why did you assume they're working on it? I mean, if that's where you saw it, go lookin. Because there's never been a listing of it as a feature.
-
I'm pretty sure I saw it in the issue 12 trailer. I've always wanted to know
-
You could always put more than one bonus in a area. Like tech place mutants and tech people profit from it but tech people profit a bit more than them. Magical could be force levels or anywhere outside as well as natural.
-
I still think if it can't be a costume piece than atleast let it be a alt flight power...if and when they do power pool customization

Quote:Hope so because I really want them to be used for more than RP purposesOriginally Posted by AzureSkyCiel
Whoa whoa whoa, did I actually make a "How to make origins matter" suggestion that people liked?
Anyway though, on the note of proper SO/DO enhancements for Places of Power, that's kind of a Day Job power isn't it, but otherwise it could work.
And the reason why enhancement stores wouldn't work is that this is supposed to be an active buff while you play and not something you log out to gain charges on. -
I don't know, it seems like a good idea but when you think about it. New members may just look up the top super groups and join them. This may make it much harder for newer super groups to gain members. Even if most of them start out just with friends teaming together it may stay that way.

Quote:Exactly! I made a awesome looking robot suit with that and a couple goggles from the science pack and one of the gas masks.Originally Posted by M_I_Abrahms
Just a note - I've seen that ninja helmet make a wicked looking tech helm. All it needed was one of the old visors.

We have those 6 melee sets, and we also have dev acknowledgement that if they'd had a choice about a different way to do that, they would have. So why are you trying to push them down a design road they've already said is a bad idea?
I wouldn't mind if they revamped AR to make it more like Dual Pistols, and had an Ammo Swap, but dividing it into 3 full sets is not the way to go.
Especially since then you'd have to come up with a solution that handles what you've just done to all the people with AR characters who like having the options. -
Quote:I like that idea but I think what they are doing, is trying to run into another mob to get more friends. That's what I've seen most of them do and when there's none around they usually come back because they are forced to fight. Idk if thats truly what they are doing but thats sorta what I've noticed. Even when taunted they still run anyway which is weird. If someone said "AHHH" in a deep voice to me, I'd be freaking pissed!Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
Enemies run all the time in comics, actually. The only problem here is, when they run in comics, they count as "defeated" for purposes of the comic story. In the game, running enemies are not "defeated", and eventually wander back to where they started (and, if it's a defeat all, need to be defeated to complete the mission).
A counter proposal: allow enemies to continue to run. But make them run towards the exit, and, if they reach it, credit them as "defeated" for the player/team. Let's bring the comics back to our superheroes.
but you are right. If they run that means you win I can understand the running when it's purse snatchers and gang members but not when your fighting high up villain groups. -
Quote:I seriously thought so too! But to be honest that actually makes the AI seem smart. I mean if your getting your **** beat would you sit there and take it or get the hell out of there? Most enemies i've seen end up fleeing when all their allies are dead.Originally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
I read the title too quickly and thought it was about me

Yes...yes please!!

Yeah, your right. I'm hoping for a change for that. There's a robot animation where it gets dizzy and falls over kinda. I was surprised that was never added to ours. I'd be happy if we had atleast 3 solid death animations

Quote:If no one worries about debt anymore, why is it bad to use it to prevent debt? How is it misusing it when it takes almost a half hour to use it again? Its a power that misses most of the time unless you pop yellows. The people i've played with either hit it by accident or they hit it for a joke. If they did power it up, yeah it could be misused, but in no way is it like a blasters nuke like some people have said on this thread.Originally Posted by IanTheM1
I think the problem here is that you seem to be under the misconception that avoiding debt is the actual intended purpose of the power, or that it's logical to buff it to be misused in that fashion even more.
In short, no thanks. Of course, I was one of the few who thought that giving SD debt protection in the first place was a bad idea. -
Quote:What's so bad about? The move has such a long recharge it can only be used once in a blue moon. I don't see why it is so bad?Originally Posted by Dr_HR
so if i get this right you want it so if your held you can still SD?.
if thats the case ..erm...i dont knwo about this tbh.. sorry -
I don't see how doing that would be over powered anyway? The attack itself misses most the time and even when it hits I probably slightly damages everyone near. Most people I know only use it for debt protection anyway
-
Quote:Yeah that's what I meant. oh well. Now I knowOriginally Posted by Roderick
I think the OP means something a little different.
1- Player gets mezzed.
2- Player is about to die.
3- OSHI-!
4- [Self Destruction]!
5- Player unmezzes and blows up.
If I'm right, I'm gonna have to say no. That would be like allowing blasters to nuke or scrappers to Shield Charge while mezzed, even if the damage is way lower.
-
Well besides acc I'm talking about giving it a break free effect. Just like when your a PB and you transform. It breaks you free form a status effect. I hate being a troller and getting held helpless not being able to prevent debt
-
I don't see any negative point to not? Most people use it for debt protection anyway seeing as you have to pop some yellows in order for the attacks to land.
-
People vote for it NOW after there's a possibility of it happening but when I suggest it, it gets shot down.

Thanks. I'll have to look into that. Technically I'm not the full leader. I'm not looking after it while the leaders are away.
