The Max Headroom is a remake of an HBO video VJ show. The commercials and the video they did are spun off the remake.

YAY! New Costume sets! I don't mind forking over 10 bucks for that, but I'm not so sure about giving 5 bucks for a temporary jetpack, even if it is for 30 days.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then don't fork over $5 for a temporary jetpack. Simple, huh? Not like they offer any huge advantage. Run the first mayhem/safeguard for a jetpack that'll last you well past level 14 if you're not stupid about how you use it. Best part: It's free.

Stalkers are still fairly weak in PvE

[/ QUOTE ]

I -seriously- disagree. My experience with them since the recent buffs put them at -least- on par with Scrappers in PvP. What they may lack in HP and sustained DPS they MORE than make up for in burst DPS. Throw in a little nice CC ( Placate ), and their weaknesses are well covered.

I don't think we need a Manimal remake.

[/ QUOTE ]

Good god, someone else actually remembers that show? O.O

Hmm...happen to remember the old show about the computer-generated guy that could come out into the real world (As some kind of solid hologram or something), but only at night? ( Something to do with the amount of power needed to run and less people using electricity at night ) Can't recall the name of the show for the life of me.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think you are thinking of Max Headrum, dont know if i spelled that right or not. He wuld some times say the same word three or fore times while his head twitched to the side. Think he did Pepsi comershal to.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, Weird Science up there had it right: Automan. Though, I do remember Max Headroom, too. It was Coke commercials that he did. And the show was spun off from the character in the commercials. ><

Thought it was something like that. Wasn't sure, though. I remember most the car that made the 90 degree turns, nearly killing the human passanger every time. ><

I have to say, the devs are really starting to raise the bar when it comes to issues. This is like the third issue in a row now where I'm like "Wow this is the best issue yet". The devs just keep on topping themselves issue after issue and I'm loving it.

On a side note, will there be any sort of experience points rewarded for completing the player made missions? I'd be fine with something like half of normal experience when in player created missions.

On another side note, fingers crossed for a new mm PRIMARY in issue 14. Thanks for the Pain Domination, looks cool, but I'm really itching to play a new MELEE mm.

I consider the devs MUCH better in this game than EQ, EQ2, SWG, or WoW. Think of this, for EQ and EQ2; you had to go to the store and spend $30-50 just to find out IF the update worked for your toon.

[/ QUOTE ]

EQ2 actually does put out free game updates in addition to the paid expansions. They've even added whole new zones and, at one point, a new starting city as part of these updates.

Sounds cool.
Does this include changing the power's color? Sorry if you already anwer this qustion

[/ QUOTE ]

That would require a LOT more work than what'd go into just a normal issue. A whole new game engine. This is something that's been discussed hundreds of times before already.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope.

[/ QUOTE ]

I see nothing in there about power customization. However, I absolutely recall devs saying in the past when the topic comes up that the engine is why it can't be done without a MAJOR amount of work cobbling in some work-around. Basically that a new engine accommodating it would be faster and easier than a hacked work-around.

Edit: Now, to be clear, I'm sure that a new engine wouldn't be the -only- thing needed. But it'd be a big step along the way.

thanks for link, I guess im just worried that there going to start wrapping CoX up in favor of champions online, which would be a major shame, as everything Ive seen about it leads me to dislike it (not a fan of console based games on pc)

[/ QUOTE ]

Why would they do that, considering CO is being made by a different company...? Cryptic sold CoH outright to NCSoft last year....

The Merit Rewards System: This one just confuses me, don't we allready have this?

[/ QUOTE ]

You -CLEARLY- didn't read the description.....

[ QUOTE ]
Not sure if anyone has brought this up, and don’t want this to sound like a attack on the dev or anything, but I have serious misgivings with player made content, as it screams of one of two things to me;

1: the not so bad: the devs are saying 'were out of ideas when it comes to making interesting things, so were opening it up to u'

2: the really bad: we have finished adding new missions to CoX, if u want them, u make them

Now I hope I’m wrong, and it is simple a case of wanting to give players freedom to do write there own stories, but I get a feeling that it’s not that simple. Anyone able to point me in a direction that shows I’m wrong?

[/ QUOTE ]

The fact that they're adding a bunch of new missions for Cim and revamping old zones, which is likely to include new missions there as well? The fact that they've shown absolutely no indication up to now of slowing down on mission adding?

THE SKY IS FALLING! *eyeroll*

This is just giving us a chance to exercise our own creativity as well. It sounds like it'll be a godsend for RPers especially.

If you're really worried that the game needs "Balance," then you shouldn't have a problem with villains having access to Empathy, nor to an AT that is actually capable of PVPing against heroes.

Unless you don't REALLY want PVP balance, and want the heroes to keep the same advantages that they've had for the past three years already. That isn't what you meant, was it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Your joking right? Have u been in a pvp zone lately?

[/ QUOTE ]

All this is pointless. Decisions on game development aren't made based on PvP balance. If the only argument for not giving Villains something is PvP balance, then the response is "Deal with it".

Captain America rip offs, here we come! Even if you include energy shields there's only a tiny handful of heroes that use them especially as their signature powers.

[/ QUOTE ]

So? How many heroes use radiation? Blasts of negative energy? How many empathy heroes can you name?

[ QUOTE ]
Oh, and count me also as disappointed that there are STILL no fixes/enhancements to bases. Shame on you, devs. Shame on you.

For all those that log out at the BM..especially in Cap....your day job is Lot Lizard, and you will be rewarded with free cheese and St. Ides

[/ QUOTE ]

Lot Lizard? I'm not quite sure that means what you appear to think it means... If what you think it means is what it means, I don't see how the cheese and St. Ides comes into play... Or the logging out near the black market.

[ QUOTE ]
First veats now empathy for vills......sigh....I sure hope u got something big for heroes coming.

[/ QUOTE ]

These were just bringing things closer to parity between the two. And "Evil Empathy" is probably just going to be a tweaked version of something Heroes already have. Nothing -really- new.

Not incredibly rude, just one of those "entitlement issue" things:

The other day, while I was set to "not accepting invites" as normal, I get a message that soandso tried to invite me to a team. A few seconds later, they try again. Then a tell comes in that says "accept invites".

...yeah, yanno, when I set myself to "not accepting", there's a damn good reason for it.... The blind invite without even paying attention to LFT status is bad enough, but expecting me to change my status for a total stranger to PUG with them?

There's also the ones that take a somewhat recognizable character and warp them in some... imaginative ways.

The great thing about the link is you don't have to guess or be psychic.... Enlightenment is only a click away....

[/ QUOTE ]

Clicking the link doesn't tell us what's on the page that's supposed to be so interesting. Looks like a DA page. *shrugs* Nothing really pops out as being more or less interesting than any other DA page except maybe the fact that there's CoX art. And that's not exactly uncommon.

Well, this thing's amusing. Me, anime-ized
