Issue 3, Issue 4, Issue 5... What are you guys talking about?

*head explodes*

When is this coming out? Issue 10? 11?

I have only one problem with pets. Or rather, I have a problem with one of them.

Red Cap.

There's something fundamentaly wrong with having a homicidal, hunchbacked, bearded, ape-like, evil gnome for a pet.

It's not cute, and it cannot be explained flavor-wise.

Let me elaborate. Clockwork and robot are constructs, no problem. They totally work as pets. Demon and Rikti Monkey are at least moderately cute, and they don't quite possesss human-level intelligence or looks, so it's fitting for them to be pets.

But a Red Cap?

I don't know, it just doesn't fit in. It feels wrong. It's not pet material. It can work as a follower at best, or as a slave at worst. But not as a pet. It might be fitting for a villain, but definitely not for a hero.

A little Tuatha De Dannan? Fir Bolg? Hydra? Anything from Devouring Earth? All FANTASTIC choices for a pet. Red Cap is a whole different level of creature. It's like having a little witch following you around, or a tsoo sorcerer. It's wrong on many levels and I think it sends a different message than originally intended by devs.

Besides, shouldn't we have pets that correspond with five different archetypes? What happened to that idea?

Mutant - ?
Natural - ?
Magic - Red Cap, Demon
Technology - Clockwork, Robot
Science - Rikti Monkey (I guess, but it could also go under Technology)

I don't know... It could've been done with a bit more care.

So if you go to lift C in faultline and run under a little ramp thing near it you will find this awesome egghunter lounge.
There is even a badge to get in said lounge.

Your hosts are mike and melissa. =D

Also i got this awesome temp power from the agent G contact, its an arachnos costume, sorta like the freakshow temp costume thingy, only this one hides you completely.

Very cool and it lasts for a hour of in game time.

Ok, so is this thing live now or are we talking about the Test server?

Also, is there a list of such CoH/CoV Easter Eggs anywhere?

Much obliged!

This is too good. I don't even know how he did it.

Well, since this thread will be read five years from now, we might as well include the more recent stuff. I apologize if this was already covered.

In July of 2006, the devs decided to give us an unprecedented reward. Or, at the very least, they decided to undertake an experiment.

The official announcement went like this:

Free Prestige!
Friday, July 21, 2006
As part of our special Double XP Weekend, each Supergroup member has been granted 20,000 Prestige!

This event caused quite a stir on the Forum, generated a storm of related threads and was a subject of lot of debate over should this be made a permanent event or just an occasional boost.

Kythorn, is that Croatian language in your signature?

And yeah, I want a Big Red Ball too.
