Update: I respecced out of Teleport and into Force Bolt... and then proceeded to kick his ***, the *** of his brothers, the *** of his Bone Mommy, and the ***** of his entire 8th grade class.
Knockback FTW! -

Reading over this thread, it seems to me like a whole lot of people are being WAY too picky and snobbish about their names.
Because, you know, naming your characters in a pretendy fun-time game is SRS BZNS! -

That's why you went into a whole schpiel about your own personal creativity? Alrighty then! -
Quote:Bosses have ALWAYS scaled down for solo players on the lowest difficulty. With the new difficulty options, it is a separate option which defaults to "scale down bosses".
A scaled down boss has the HP and End pool of a Lt, and the mag prot of a Lt, but they keep all their powers.
Also: Bone Daddies are nasty. Always were.
This makes me regret picking up Teleport at level 6 instead of Force Bolt... Hell I think I just might respec right now... -
Since when?
Anyways, these Bone Daddies that I was facing were NOT scaled down. They had ALL their powers, and just ONE whooped my sorry ***. No Lts EVER whoop my *** all by themselves, NONE. These guys were Boss-level power. -
Now that Brawl doesn't cost ANY precious endurance at ALL, period.... will you six slot it and put it into your regular attack cycle as a free attack?
Since I'm starting a solo "non-vet" project right now, I'm definitely using it and loving it, but I'm up in the air right now as to whether I will slot it at all.... decision descisions.
I do think the lack of endurance use makes it MUCH more attractive than it used to be though... -

Latest Batch here.... most of the recent negatives came from two threads where I basically told people "be more creative, STUPID". No surprise there.

Some of the back and forth between people is funny. And looking at my rep score, it looks like I've now levelled out to meet the equilibrium of people that like me and the ones that can't stand me. -
Quote:Nail, meet head.
Coming up with unique, useful names is not difficult. Or are you saying most people are utterly incapable of any flexibility or thought past their initial name selection?
Even YOUR name Johnny shows the infinite possibilities... Let's say that Johnny Velocity is taken. I want to make a speedster with a "normal" name and a "speed" name:
Bobby Breakneck
Charlie Chop-Chop
Danny Dashing
Erin Expeditious
Frankie Flash
Hasty Hank
Lisa Lickety
Nathan Nimble
Perry Pronto
Quinton Quick
Richie Rapid
Screamin' Steve
And that's LIMITING myself to VERY specific rules of "normal" name + "fast name" + alliteration and giving it a minute or two of thought.
Anyone that complains about not being able to get an APPROPRIATE name for their character is just simply uncreative. PERIOD. -

I'm going to have to make some sort of copy and paste response like Memphis Bill has for this "problem" of "not having enough free names".
Here is a start, partially pulled from another thread:
A 20 character limit that allows the use of 36 unique characters and equals 3,600,000,000,000,000,000,000 possible character names.... that is just SO limiting!
And considering that there's somewhere between 450,000 and 1 million unique INDIVIDUAL words in the English language..... that you can then pair with OTHER unique individual words.....let's say you can fit 2-3 words in one name with the character limit making conservatively
2-3 million unique names....
..... we're running out of possible names!

Quote:I love it when people take a generalized statement geared at no specific person and make it into a personal insult against them which they have to defend themselves against. It makes me smile.I am incredibly original. I'm not just tooting my own horn here.
I have over 100 characters. (Most of them I don't play very often. I enjoy playing them all.) The only character I have that has a workaround (he has a dash at the end of his name), I made about a month after I started playing and didn't care, cos I thought I was going to delete him. I haven't gotten petty cash to pay for a rename yet, so he stays with the frivolous dash.
Not to mention, I have Aggelakis on every North American server, with different power sets for each one for testing and messing around. Under the unique-name theory, I wouldn't be able to do that.
Quote:However, making names unique across all the servers combined is a ridiculous and STUPID idea. There's approximately 120,000+ subscriptions (using the smallest number), and the average number of characters on a subscription (the last time it was released) was somewhere around 12. (I think 12; might have been 10 or 14.) 120,000 x 10 (using the smaller number just for ease of example) is 1,200,000 names that HAVE TO BE UNIQUE. Instead of being able to divide that by fifteen servers (seventeen if you count the two test servers).
Yeah. Great idea. *drips with sarcasm*
Right, because with a 20 character limit that allows the use of 36 unique characters and equals 3,600,000,000,000,000,000,000 possible character names is just SO limiting!
Yeah. Too restrictive. *drips with sarcasm* -

Yes, it would be horrible and force people to be even MORE original.
I get chills just thinking about it.
