Quote:There was a vote a long time ago for which melee set we wanted most. I seem to recall that what we chose wasn't what got made, but I'm sure someone around here better recalls the specifics.Originally Posted by Zubenelgenubi
... then where oh where is our gorram MOON ZONE that was voted as our favorite new zone for the Devs to create, what, like 4 or 5 years ago...?
Seriously... We're gonna have all these SPACEMEN (and women) running around on EARTH.

This has been an oft-requested option over the years. If they ever get customisation for Power Pools into the game we may see it happen. But it's highly unlikely that they'll just remove the current effect for everybody.

Someone wants to make a Roman Centuion-themed character.
You go to the character creator and...there are no Roman parts. You have to get your Roman Centurion to level 35 and run the ITF to unlock them. So for the first 35 levels your 'Roman' is walking around with...medieval or Samurai armor.
Now do you get the logic? -

If I was that powerful and that ripped, I'd probably run around in as little as possible too.

Quote:As someone who went vegetarian for about six months last year and tried numerous Morningstar products I have to say that their bacon is very strange.Originally Posted by ThePill
How dare you!
Morningstar is a brand of vegetarian products. That is no bacon! -
I'll definitely be grabbing the Roman pack. I dislike Cimerora in general, and any use I'd have for the pieces would generally start at level 1.

Quote:I prefer it on the chewy side, myself, but preferably with a slight crispness on the outside. This is best achieved with thick-cut bacon.Originally Posted by Scythus
Blah... I like mine chewy. It's supposed to be bacon, not charcoal.
Bacon that shatters is no longer bacon, it's topping. -
Quote:I wanted more for my character from the story, but I generally don't care about the signature NPCs. I like it when I come across a story that makes me care one way or the other, but I'm so used to not caring that I'd be perfectly fine with all the signature NPCs getting vaporized with little fanfare.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Like you, I can't speak for everyone, but I never got the impression that people who wanted more for their characters out of the story - people like me - actually wanted to destroy all the signature characters. I'm convinced that we wanted quite the opposite, to be given the opportunity to proceed past where the signature characters stop.

Quote:I play numerous characters, and I've played some of them far more than I've played my "main" character. For me, my "main" is simply my namesake character and the one to whom I best relate. I tend to make a version of him in any given game I play that allows character creation. My universal alter ego.Originally Posted by _eeek_
People still have a "main"?
Why? -
My reply in this thread prompted me to finally get around to re-rolling Tenzhi. I don't exactly regret it, but reclaiming level 38 seems so far away...

Quote:It seemed appropriate to the character from what little I've seen of him. He comes across as a bit of a pompous weasel to me.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
But Manticore screws up repeatedly, acts like a dick, then attacks his friends. I get the impression the only reason he didn't shoot an arrow at Liberty was because he knew he couldn't beat her, so he went to get backup.
-
My main got put aside (mostly) a while ago. Ever since Instant Healing got changed from a toggle to a click. I keep meaning to reroll him, but whenever I contemplate it I can't decide what to reroll him as. Willpower would be the most natural choice, but I find myself contemplating Super Reflexes as well. And I'm not sure I want to stick with Martial Arts, either - Kinetic Melee, Street Justice, and soon Staff Fighting are all possible choices. Not to mention a change of AT might be in order.

Quote:Putting aside that your lifeless body could potentially be arranged to visit Japan, the visit itself is optional, ergo so are any requirements for it.Originally Posted by Mazey
Which is why I clarified the statement with the word "entirely".
If I lose my life, I lose all the things that go with it. For example, given that I wish the visit Japan this year, my life is not optional for that task, it is, in fact, required.
If I wish to make a character using those pieces it's the same as wishing to visit Japan.Quote:If you miss out on those costume pieces or wolf, the only thing you don't have are those costume pieces or wolf. They are entirely optional.
Life, as I said, is optional. One major focus of life is to seek to improve our options. It may be ridiculous, but it's life. -
Quote:Life is optional.Originally Posted by Mazey
Getting uptight about entirely optional extras just because they're being released in a random way is ridiculous.

Quote:Supporting the status quo just because it's the status quo is ridiculous.Originally Posted by Leo_G
But then, I don't feel entitled to everything being released how I want it (again Celestial/Fire&Ice) so having some exclusivity in how things are obtained is basically keeping the status quo.
I complained about the Tier 9 costume unlocks, too. I have them and I'll still complain about the methodology.Quote:Why should you be able to just unlock costumes in a poof while others have to wait or spend a sizable wad of points (haha Celestial/Fire&Ice again)? Because you're VIP?
And I've also complained about the costume pieces mired in the incarnate stuff. For numerous reasons beyond just the fact that they have to be unlocked via Incarnate content.Quote:PS: I like the Elemental Order set to (mainly just the belt and gloves) but see no difference in locking them in SPs vs locking other sets behind incarnate content which is itself locked behind being a VIP. I say, tuff cookies to you and the rest. At least SPs come with other stuff my lowbies can use.
But at least the Roman pieces that I've complained about appear to be getting a conventional release allowing them to be used from level 1. -
Quote:Given that you can't attack with it on, it seems to me like it is pretty much unsuppressed movement.Originally Posted by Nihilii
It'd be cool if Coyote travel was unsuppressed movement. This way there'd be a point to use it over Ninja/Beast in missions, and there'd still be a drawback with the detoggling thing.

Quote:Absolutely. There's some nice costume pieces in that set, but I'm not gonna gamble for them. Put them up as a bundle and I'll buy them in a heartbeat.Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
This has absolutely nothing to do with 'selfish' or 'want now!' or any of that utter guff.
This has EVERYTHING to do with "I will put points down when I so choose and I will receive costume parts or something equivalent for my points. I will NOT and flat out refuse to put points down with a CHANCE to get what I actually want, and run the high risk of getting absolute dross that holds interest for me only in negative amounts."
I would like the Elemental Order costume out of the pack, and that is it. The other stuff holds NO interest for me. Ergo, I refuse to have to gamble for what I want. That is not acceptable. Just because you've needed something to waste money on and gamble with doesn't mean everyone does. And I KNOW I'm not alone in this, going by the Beta board responses. -
Quote:That would generally be my preference as well. Still, it wouldn't surprise me to see it as a power.Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
In the case of jetpacks I'd much prefer to see them added as costume pieces like wings rather than individual powers.
Spazfrag FTW.Quote:Originally Posted by MaestroMavius
I think the only way we'll ever see 'motorcycles' in game would be if they were converted into Rocket-Cycles ala Lobo. Thereby eliminating the problem with strafing and terrain etc. -
Quote:No kidding, the world would be a much better place if everyone just accepted things because the people in charge said they were working as intended.Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
This always cracks me up. Even when the devs come and flat out tell us that something is working exactly as they intended some people cling to the delusion that whatever it is must be broken because they personally don't like the way it works.

Quote:Unless, perhaps, it's jetpack-esque.Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
So I wouldn't expect to be able to use any powers on any new travel power.

Quote:Indeed, I'm familiar with Chinese dragons, parade and otherwise. If I squint and pretend I can kinda see it around the eyes. Maybe several shots of Scotch would help.Originally Posted by thanos727
I was going for a more traditional Chinese parade dragon look

I'm betting the "i" is for "ice" which should really have been "c" for "cold".

Quote:If they could just manage to produce animation that was decent, I'd say going animated would be the best option.Originally Posted by Redbone
The technology is currently convincing, but JUST barely convincing and there are times where is is a glaring effect. The problem isn't the tech though, the tech is there, the problem is the cost of that tech. In a decade, maybe, they could pull it off cheaply enough for a TV show, but as it stands now, it would cost a season or two's entire budget just for the age effects.

Quote:My only problem with it is it looks nothing like a dragon to me. And that third place... I have to wonder if the judges were drunk by the second contest.Originally Posted by Chad Gulzow-Man
And the Beijing Dragon lady? Very cool, kinda scary. Great use of the Omega parts!

Kinda surprised there were no lion dancers.
