I'm kinda surprised Babs responded to him...

...huh....


Oh to tide you guys over. You should mess with the coloring of the standard enemy groups in AE.

I had fun turning Devouring Earth boulders into many different colors, imagining that's how my stone tank would look.

Also, you should try coloring the longbow heavy and the PPD assault units.

I just thought of a good reason to let me into I-16 closed beta.


I won't be leaving for Champions Online.


But you know.. now that they know that.. why the heck would they let me in closed beta?..


*shoots self in foot*

Next on my list of things to do... buy Mac edition pack and science pack. >_<

I have a minor update. I uploaded some new screenshots and along with them, provided links to download my costume files.

If anyone wants me to upload any others, let me know. Thanks

Yeah the more that the devs reveal about their selection criteria, the bigger of a stink people will raise if they don't get chosen.

Oh and I didn't mean to put a "thumbs down" icon on this thread. I did it on accident and now it wont let me change it.

Don't want devs to think I'm unappreciative. I'm super excited about this update. It's got to be one of the top 3 most anticipated for me.

just saw this on BaB's twitter...

*tilts head*

You'll probably see a ton of people get into beta once they bring out the next patch.

They don't want new people constantly reporting the same bugs they already know about.

Steel, we know. We understand what beta is for.

We're just whining, begging and pleading :P

you can deep fry anything.

Yeah I remember when weapons customizing came out, weapons were FOTM.

Now it looks like it's gonna be normal powers. I actually deleted my lvl 17 AE/elec blaster to make him into energy/elec, just for I-16.

oh yeah and.. my 1,000th post!

*commence finger crossing*

I'm curious if devs have something planned or already in the works for some of the powersets that use weapons.

I was just thinking about the Robotics mastermind. Sure he uses a gun, but it shoots red lasers. Will there be options to change the color of those?

Maybe it's an all or nothing type of thing. I realize it might not be worth the effort to change the coloring of an assault rifle flash, but doesn't "flamethrower" use the same FX as "breath of fire"?

If we could only customize a couple powers from weapon sets, that would be awesome.

It's like finding a 5 dollar bill on the sidewalk.

Look at the claws in high res. Are they coming out between his knuckles?

Also, hooray flaming zombies.

I assume, based on logic, that they sent out beta invites to the people who've been the most active on the forums.

They obviously want people who will provide feedback and participate in the testing process. Not someone who just wants to preview Issue 16.

I'm not shocked that stuff is being leaked. There's always gonna be someone who can't keep quiet, but I haven't been able to find any leaks on the internet. At least it seems to be leaking within the community. Not saying that it's a good thing, but it's better than being pasted all over popular gaming websites.

Unless they're removing some features or options I saw at Comic Con, I can't imagine any of it being bad publicity. Guess we'll find out when it hits live.

I'm pretty good at breaking things, but I'll admit that my main reason for wanting to test, is to get a preview of power customization. And I think many people who want in beta, will not admit that.

Here's hoping they iron out the character creation bugs first and open up the login for the non-closed beta testers.

I should be in closed beta, 'because I'm unemployed and have nothing better to do.


btw, this thread wasn't intended to be completely serious...

Now, make me laugh!

Sounds like you already got some good ideas on what you want. I'd pick whatever best fits your character concept.

Or you could go for 2 powersets that might work well together. Like a defensive powerset and combine it with something that has tohit debuffs.

Willpower is very strong if built right and I like claws animation more than dark melee. So really I'd go with what sounds more fun.

I've said this in another post, but I'm very excited for I-16, because it opens the door to many additions.

Since their team is pretty big now, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw NEW animations coming down the pipeline, giving us even more to choose from.

They obviously can't cram it all into this issue, but they put the foundation in place and changed how everything worked, so when they want to add something on top of it, it'll be relatively easy.

So in the future, I wouldn't be surprised if we got new power FX, options, Emanation points and more animations.

Genius I say. Now you may see far less AE spam in Atlas.
