I'd like to see your significant moments over the length of time you've played this game. A timeline of things that you love, maybe your favourite issue additions leading from the day you joined to today.

Wow. I- I don't know what to say. I haven't logged in for a while, but this game has meant a whole lot to me over the years gone by. I've had fun, I've made friends and for a while City of Heroes even helped me find someone special. I'm truly upset to hear that it isn't going to be around forever.
I guess now we know what the coming storm is. -

I just wish they'd give him a less silly-looking head. And I'm fine with the signature characters not getting a wholesale revamp, but a re-texturing would be nice at least. -
Because the game works so differently in PvP than it does in PvE, and because it will probably always be about builds. Having to make a build with SS and hasten and the like just because that's what wins in PvP is no fun.
I used to think it was also because I had no interest in fighting with other players. I've got my eye on another game's PVP right now though, so I guess that isn't strictly true. -

On the other hand, Praetoria feels unfinished to me for missing higher level content. PI and Grandville weren't available at launch either, and I've kind of hoped that we'd eventually see more of Praetoria as well but it appears to me that we have as much as we're going to get.

These threads make a lot more sense if you replace "superheroes" with "the sort of writing I like" and "magic" with "the sort of writing I dislike".
I was starting to wonder what everybody was talking about.

This is very sad news.
Keep the server names, though. If Union was to be no longer in English, I wouldn't want them changing the name of my server as well. Keep Zukunft as Zukunft.
I assume that changes will be made to the EULA (At least I think it's the EULA) that all public channels must be used in the server's language? Because that would hardly be fair in this case. -

This is a great start. The next step, obviously, being to apply this same thinking to everything with a timed reward table -- SSAs, WSTs, etc, etc, etc....Honestly, this sounds like a great idea for the outdated info terminals. ... and a redside equivalent I've yet to think of.Quote:Originally Posted by gameboy1234
This bit I do agree with. Especially the SSA/WWD. It would be great if every contact in the WWD would also tell me which rewards I was currently eligible for, and why (i.e., do I need to confirm my alignment again? Or just wait another day?). Hopefully this is "common code" that once done could be added easily to any number of contacts.
The WST is normally well advertised. However it might be helpful for newbies if they could see the WST in-game. Maybe every TF/SF contact could have a dialog entry for "What is the Weekly Strike Target?" and an screen that shows:
"The Weekly Strike Target is a ST/TF where you get extra rewards for XP, Inf, and Merits. The current WST is <name> in <zone> from contact <contact>."
Don't forget that <zone> might be "any Super Group base with a Raid Teleporter" and <contact> might be said Raid Teleporter. -
Quote:I wondered this, what with Beast Mastery using placeholder animations and textures when Staff Fighting seemed largely complete.Originally Posted by DerekStorm
Everything is good and all...
But, I'm a little confused as to why Beast Mastery has been dropped before Staff Fighting...
But I think it's to do with recent set releases. If both of them are relatively ready, they might have released it because they wanted the pet set out first, rather than staff fighting after street justice and titan weapons. -
Nope. Finishing a free system should be free. I wouldn't want to support it being sold seperately.

I remember way back when we got the VEATs, some of us were clamoring for Bane/Crab helmets that had the glowy lights on them. We were told that there were technical reasons why this couldn't be done.
Since GR though, we've had items with glowmaps popping up left, right, and centre. Is there any chance of getting crab/bane helmets with glowmaps applied to the lights? They may not be able to flicker all the time, but as it is they look a little lifeless with non-functional lights in them. -
Investigator Whitworth, Imperial City responsibility loyalist contact, is using male costume parts on a female rig. I'm all for gender equality, but this is a little creepy.
The female rig means his body's all compressed to a small area, and a lot of his parts are misaligned. His gloves floating next to his jacket sleeves, for example. The whole thing seems rather 'crunchy' while he performs his idle female animations and he looks uncomfortable at best.
This has been the case since GR's beta, and I've /bugged it a fair few times now. I came to PM someone, but I didn't know who this should really be sent to. I thought one of the Arbiters, but their 'latest forum activity' date put me off. -
Brilliant as always, D_R. Watched it several times, and I love it. Your videos usually get me more hyped for an issue than I thought I could be.
Every time you release a video like this, I get a little bit more fed up with Paragon for not paying you. You deserve it, and who knows how much of an impact this could make on the main page, as an announcement, or on their facebook page?
Fingers crossed for you for the future. -
I think I'm gonna have to agree. Jolting chain is probably my funnest power. Or what. Especially with the confuse chain as well. And with fast recharge so stuff pretty much stays down.
Quote:Why does gravity control not have this?!Originally Posted by Tenzhi
Jolting Chain is fun. But it's not as fun as the AoE Knockup power that exists in the game in my imagination. -

Hmmmm any big games hitting the shelves this summer so we can get an idea for i23?

I'm actually drawn to Countess Crey, though I'm not entirely sure why.
It's something about the hair and dress. Something that looks good, and somehow you know not to cross them. Interestingly, I get a similar vibe from Anna Williams of the Tekken series. It must be something about the hair length, high V in the dress, and skindows.
I also really like Vanessa DeVore. I can't say if she's physically attractive, as I'm fairly sure we don't know what that face looks like. But the way she presents herself is memorable.

Quote:It can't be that. Zwill must have been pulling a huge prank on us when he stated explicitly that it wasn't coming this week.Originally Posted by terrible_deli
orrrr.....fixing the bug that was causing Paragon Market crashes if the language was set to German or French.
Just wait. Any minute now.

I hope this is feasable, as I actually presumed it would be included when I recieved the pack.
Not to say I was going to demand my token be refunded or anything, but this seems like the sort of thing that's logical to have set up in the first place. A fire sword and an ice sword that can be used as skins for standard blades but not fire swords or ice swords? Just seems like an opportunity was missed.
That said, weapon sets and power animations are customised in different ways, so I'm interested in hearing the technical side of it.

I voted for B because if I were to buy a retro sci-fi pack, I'd want that one to be included.
That said, A is a very nice, relatively simple jetpack. I hope we're getting some bogstandard jetpacks somewhere along the line before we get loads of specialised themed ones.
Soyeah, B please. But more jetpacks in general please also.
-
Thought I'd throw my own thoughts in, too.
I love this level of interaction with the playerbase. I was hoping that it wasn't too time-consuming and that it could happen again; letting us decide what we hand over money for is great for everyone. Really!
Looking forward to seeing what else comes up in the future. Maybe a thread should be started about the next plummit pack, so forumites who can't attend can make suggestions, and then players that do attend could maybe submit any ideas they liked into the brainstorm? -

I'd hope the Pocket D pack goes live soon, because that at least looks to be mostly done.

I love reading about these bugs, and they seem to come along any time a new trial's added. I really wanna see it happen!
