This thread should be stickied.

You know what else? I miss CuppaJo.

Dear devs,
Please post on the boards more. The boards get lonely without you guys posting.
Love,
Vanden

Anyone know what power Powerthrust is using?

Was wondering that myself, seems to be he made that using demorecord, as I have never heard of mobs colliding with each other, or dropping their weapons before. Although, maybe for weapon dropping you just need a physX card or something.

That's all demo edit. Glad you liked it.

WHY were the new flight poses not mentioned? Everyone knows they're the best new part of the game!

I'm very glad to hear that not all is lost; I had a substantial amount of influence and recipes in the house at the time. I'm glad I stayed calm and had faith you guys would do your best to fix it.

When a Spines Scrapper does Ripper, two long, thin spines appear out of thin air, attached to the Scrapper's forearms. This is a separate effect from the other spines that sprout from the rest of the Scrapper's body. What it looks like we're seeing in the screenshot is a Scrapper doing Ripper, but for some reason the numerous spines that should be sticking out of his body aren't there. However, the two long Spines that only appear during Ripper (and the first 2 powers in the set the names of which I can't recall) are there. It's not a new powerset we're seeing. They may have changed Spines so that the "Spines all over" effect only appears during some Spines moves (most likely Spine Burst) in the latest internal build, though.

So are you saying that almost ALL taunt effects are broken? What exactly is an auto-taunt effect?

About the putting Membranes in Vengeance. I tested this myself a while ago, and even though Vengeance doesn't normally accept recharge reductions, Membranes will reduce the recharge.

I do really like the suggestion about trying to re-use the old event where everyone got a level 40 on Training Room to come PvP with.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes! Yes! That event was an absolute blast and I would LOVE to do it again.

I also want to buy eggs for a few dollars, have them hatch and grow to chickens, then use the forsale sign to make 100 dollars off them.

YES! EarthBound FTW! High-five!

Man, that Hami is one baaaad....

I'm just talkin' 'bout Hami!

This is just a decoy secret. It's standard secret-keeping procedure.

Well, in the past "token" has typically meant that you get another chance to change something for free.

It should reduce your max HP to 25%, leave in the -Heal, take out the -Regen, and give it back its defense to all.

It seems like there's an awful lot of clipping that occurs between character's arms and sleeves when you have a character use the Jackets option. Now, from messing around with demos, I know that when you make a character with one or two of their upper arms as robotic, the game uses a torso with no arms on it and loads the prosthetics as a separate costume piece. I've used this for comedic effect by recording a demo of my MA Scrapper fighting, then replacing his model with a character that has no arms, since most MA moves are kicks. Now, why not have it so that when a character uses the jackets with sleeves option, the torso underneath the jacket that the game uses is the one with no arms? that would eliminate clipping between the arms and sleeves entirely, wouldn't it?

when we play on Live servers even we dont get any special commands or cheats.

What about that command to get the April's Fool badge?

Oh man! I didn't think I'd ever get a chance to use this pic again!

Do you think anything can be done about this?

[snip]Web Envelope- No duration numbers, magnitude, or description if it is a cone or AoE. It seems likely it will be mag 3 but the devs have been known to do some crazy things. Also, I had previously thought this was an aoe but now I'm not so sure.[snip]

[/ QUOTE ]

Its targeted AoE like fireball, You can tell by the border of the power icon.

[/ QUOTE ]
Just like all the pet powers they give! You can tell by the icons!
[/sarcasm] Stupid people putting stupid icons in the game...

4) Neurotoxic Breath: [...] The cone is –immense-, easily the broadest I’ve ever seen, at a good 60 degrees.

[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, Terrify probably has the largest cone in the game, seeing as how you can hit enemies you can't even see with it...

Any idea what the MM Merc Rifle's sounds are?
I'm rather sick of the piddly-sounding "puhpuhpuh" of burst, and the "pssst" of slug. I want to replace them with something more MANLY.

Ah. that explains it.

Man, look at those posts. They had no idea that I5 and ED would soon be descending upon them...

We've set the Wayback Machine for April of '05!

Seriously though, how'd this thread even get in this forum? I don't think this forum was around a year ago.

Resistance is the Mez Resistance that AVs get. Statesman, During the end-of-CoV-beta event, also had a Statesman power pool that contained, if I remember correctly, Charged Bolts, Lightning Bolt, Ball Lightning, and Thunderous Blast. In addition, War Witch had a power, I can't remember what it was called, but it made her randomly phase shift while still being able to attack, like Carnie Illusionists and Diabolique. She had it because she's dead. (When I first found out War Witch was one of the heroes there at the raid, I immediately thought of the Space Mutiny episode of MST3K, and said to myself, "Boy, it sure was nice of them to let that dead girl come along to the raid.")

Did you know...

That back in the Beta for CoH, Statesman once sent a monster after a group that tried to grief him (Not realizing who it was they were teaming with...)?

[/ QUOTE ]



[/ QUOTE ]

Wasn't it something like he despawned brickstown and then spawned a Requim next to them?

Mind you, they had sk'd him, teamed with him, took him to bricks, and then kicked and unsk'd him from team in the red area of bricks, IIRC.

[/ QUOTE ]
No, those were two separate occurances. As I recall, one happened as previously described; a team sked States, then left him high and dry in a very purple area, so he spawned a monster on them. The other occurence happened when a group of characters in their mid-20s were taking on the level 30+ enemies in Brickstown, and they were sending tells to Positron and Statesman about it, in kind of a "Hey Dad, look what I'm doing!" way. They responded by despawning the zone and spawning a level 40 AV near them, as if to say "Oh yeah? Try this on for size!" From the way I recall it, the AV in Brickstown was all in good fun.
