Ah ok, No suicide, but he did pass away of natural causes

[/ QUOTE ]

jokes aside, RIP mr Carradine.

The Malevol-Ant States:

I do hold some of your species in high regard. Those I fought in Siren's were particularly delicious.

These include but are not limited to: Col. X, Lucas, PositronBot, Killer Wail, Giggles and it's chosen Mate. When found alive, I also very much enjoyed killing Admiral Frost.

[/ QUOTE ]

i miss those days of the whole zone teamming up to kill him. anyone who pvps in sirens can thank our server for getting those extra drones added in.

But evil should be allowed to make advances, win property, and alter the face of things for the worse, up to a point. I'd love it if you could 'take over' a certain % of the spawn points in an open zone so that your custom critters spawned there, for instance.

Recluse's Victory physically changes in those ways when you capture pillboxes.

[/ QUOTE ]

Technically it doesn't physically change when you do that.

Just chances from UV to normal lighting

[/ QUOTE ]

maybe you havent been there? atlas's statue becomes recluse and city hall and the surrounding area takes on the arachnos tileset. not to mention the actual appearance of villain vs hero pillboxes.

oh yea and sig. hero/villains appear but thats not really architecture, although it does help the feeling of a struggle.

edit: also forgot to mention that when you win you are awarded a mini heavy as a pet. thats technically spawning your own custom critters, not exactly what AE gives you but they follow you until you die or zone and can be used while operating a zone heavy.

Bin laden won.

just facts.

if you go off of kill count i think bush won

There isn't 100% agreement on just what all the fine details of Comic Book Morality are. We have general agreement on the gross details, though. Heroes work for the common good. Villains work for their own agendas and their own personal power. Heroes follow a moral code, however loosely defined. Villains follow whatever code suits their backstory and their purposes. Heroes limit their damage to the punishment of the villainous. Villains inflict punishment on anyone for any reason that makes sense to them.

[/ QUOTE ]

so we'd be in agreement then that people read comics as a form of escapism because deep down we all know thats not how real life works.

Good and evil are a myth

[/ QUOTE ]

this.
society needs labels like this so that only a few people need to think for the whole system to work.

also Slick good reply, thanks for not taking it personal. im not all that wordy but i love philosophical discussions, i tend to offend people so i was trying to be cautious.

[ QUOTE ]
The question of "winning", regardless of alignment, is a question of goal-setting and achievement. Heroes are, by definition, interested in the greater good. (Yeah, I'm hand-waving around anti-heroes and selfish people.) That makes them easier to write for, because any threat at all is something that's part of their charter. A hero might have an agenda, but she is generally willing to pursue it "off-screen" if there are more pressing matters currently coming up in the script.

Villains are, generally, self-centered and ALWAYS working for their own agenda. (Again, hand-waving around villains who want the greater good and see themselves as willing to do what nobody else is clever/insightful/brave/whatever/unconventional enough to do.) A villain wants to "feel villainous" by choosing a goal, making a plan to achieve the goal, putting the plan in motion, and making the attempt. Winning or losing isn't really what it's about, though clearly winning is the superior outcome. The Plan and the ability to execute it with some chance of success is really what it's about. While its true that some villains want to taste dead, burnt bodies and veins in their teeth to feel "evil", most prefer a bit more panache with their schemes.

In fact, I'd say that one of the overriding factors in "feeling villainous" is the ability to HAVE a scheme in the first place.

Disagreements?

everyone does everything for their own benefit.

heroes usually have some secret character flaw or trauma hat forces them to see saving people as beneficial for themself. imo, the reason people see comics as childish is because of this immaturity in the subject matter dominating public perception of their content. you can show nudity and murder all you want but as long as the story is about some "greater good" superhero only kids and comic book geeks will take them seriously as literature.

lately there has been alot of storylines about society turning against it's heroes. if you look into alot of the ways writers have chosen to have the heroes respond, you'll see that the hero becomes a villain(even if only briefly) because his values are no longer centered around helping people. often times, the hero teams with his nemesis because their values are all of a sudden one and the same, once the broken character trait of blind service/heroism is removed.

ignoring super powers and such, can you honestly name any person in the world who could truly be defined as a hero using your(not necessarily you personally but the accepted opinion of it) definition of the ideal? even your parents(again, not personal) only want you to suceed because it makes them look better.

this is what i personally believe:

evil cant win because of the definition of good and evil.

good is defined as what those in power favor and make law, while evil is what they frown on. if evil wins, it becomes the ruling class and it's rules become the new good.

there is no universal good.

people on CoH enjoy Hip-Hop?

LIES!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

good rap is hard to find but worth the search.

fortunately for me, i have a couple of serious hip hop heads for brothers so i can filter the crap out through their collections.

*you can probably replace rap with most any genre except like country which is all the same and garbage.

**also, imo the 90s were the greatest decade for music.

trying to get gun to send a toon to justice...i got some good fights lined up for him....but hes a bit stubborn hehe....

[/ QUOTE ]

didnt gunrock start on justice? or are you talking about someone else? i remember that name from since i6 sirens.

to toy with people i used to use smoke/stealth io and the placate proc in charged brawl together so when im standing in my imps and they press tab they have to retarget.

[ QUOTE ]
To demand a stalker fight a straight up duel without stealth would be like asking a U-boat to surface and fight a battleship in broad day light. Not much challenge there.

[/ QUOTE ]

lol nice analogy. would have had more meaning like 7 issues ago though.

[ QUOTE ]
Looks like you came back to pick up where you left off.
You left complaining about PvP to return to complain about PvP.
Nice.

Find something else to do besides complaining. We heard it all before you left.

[/ QUOTE ]

why do you post here? you dont pvp.

CoH at its best


CoH now

I'd avoid /psi until we see how it comes out in the wash.

I'd actually hold off on any new dom until we see how they come out in the wash, but that is just me.

[/ QUOTE ]

imo, doms are the most fun you can have in this game. i'd ride the wave one last time and if they gut them just leave.

you waste bu using it before powersink a couple times but otherwise well played. also, bonfire vs mms(or anything unprepared) is too fun. fire/elec is a beast in the new pvp, i almost wish i tried mu on mine after seeing you but mace worked fine for me.

im gonna miss you guys' vids, still planning on doing CO?

psi is great because plant is strong early on while psi is strong in later levels.

after that i'd say ice then fire then the rest are about equal.

my ice/psi is named Hibernoob, i think my 1st dual build was to get him hibernate just for the screenshot
