The same could be said of the 80s/90s cartoon that had taken what was a more grim, dark, monochrome comic book TMNT and had them saying catchphrases, being obsessed with pizzas, and having Shredder reduced to sometimes comedic, Saturday morning villain with incompetent henchmen that embodied 80s trends.

Maybe because it was absolutely ridiculous? It was a funny bug, yeah, but come on.

Yup. That way folks'll play it longer instead of getting to 50 and being bored with it after a day.

Fix'd

Same. Skipped Judgement and Destiny on my Archery/Devices Blaster, and only picked up Lore once we got those little robotic drones. Will be skipping Lore on my Fiery Melee Brute until we happen to get something a little more fire-related. I can wait.

Don't watch it, then. Problem solved.

When I stated multiple hairstyles I was just being general and making a point. Yes, this would actually require a lot more work than just chopping off hair, purely because the devs have to work from a set schedule they have, pull art designers away from new projects so that they can hack away the old hair from these hats, then test the new hats to make sure they don't clip or look awkward. They must be treated as making a new object, like I mentioned, because work must still be taken away from other things in order to focus on this, and any amount of work in this game isn't as little as players make it seem. Look at how long it took for women to get Baron coats. All the work was already there, the coat was made, but it took having a dev fit it into their free schedule to work on in their down time before we finally saw it.

It's not a small task, and because of that, I doubt the devs would want to work on making hairless versions of these hats when they could just make entirely new hats instead. If we ever do get them, great, I won't complain. But I'm just being realistic here.

What you don't understand is on those hats, like I explained, the whole thing is one big hairdo. For example again, a Fedora and the hair that comes with it are one solid entity. As in, in order to get an option to have a Fedora with no hair on it (which, technically, bald is a hair style anyway), you'd need to go in and remake the Fedora, removing the hair. It's essentially making a new costume part in terms of workload and fitting it into the schedule.

They'd have to do this with every single hat that has hair, meaning they'd be remaking a ton of hats to have a no-hair option. Why put all that effort into making bald versions of hats when we could just get new hats instead?

Tell that to the 5th Column, Council, Tsoo, Outcasts, Hellions, Skulls, Nemesis, Arachnos, Circle of Thorns, Praetorians, Carnival of Shadows, Trolls, Rikti, Banished Pantheon, Malta, Knives of Artemis, Crey, Coralax, Clockwork, Devouring Earth, The Family, Freakshow, Vahzilok, Warriors, Hyrda Spawn, The Lost, Shivans, Sky Raiders, Halloween Zombies, and the Winter Horde.

And then there's Rogues Gallery villains, and our player villains that wreck Paragon City on a regular basis within story arcs and Mayhem Missions.

Take a chill pill, bro, and just step away.

That's only possible with a patented Time Travel Face Bag.

But then we couldn't get actual shoulder options to go along with it, and most of those animal and beast heads are too big for the helmet.

Which is why I said what I said. But if you want my opinions on an actual Mech power set, then I say it sounds like a cool idea, but the APB tech is unnecessary for it.

Take a chill pill, man.

Why can't Rogues get AP's badges?

Actually, those analogies don't work so well. When you pay your monthly fee for this game, you're paying for access to the game. The ability to actually play the game without Free/Premium restrictions. Anything the devs put in the Issues comes at no cost to us, which means we're not paying the devs for anything within said Issues. Whereas, with your cheeseburger analogy, you actually are paying money specifically for that cheeseburger.

So when an Issue comes out that's not to your liking, you can't complain that much because you didn't actually pay anything to receive an Issue with everything you wanted. You paid to make sure you have access to this game, and the servers remain up and running.

Now, technically speaking, the system was finished. The devs intended it to be done with Primary and Secondary powers. The players just wanted more out of it, including myself. Positron was actually surprised players would want to customize power pools and the like, if anyone remembers that. But technically speaking, it was a finished system that they continue to implement with all future powersets. And since we're not paying them to continue with Power Customization, but instead paying them for access to their servers, we can't sit here and say "You're not finished. Back to work or I'll be mad." We can only say "Devs. Any chance you guys would be interested in adding APPs, PPPs, and Power Pools to your list of customizable powers?"


Also, to be honest, I really feel like you should take a chill pill. You're getting really worked up over something pretty small.

Why not?

Someone posted a video awhile back of old Faultline. Basically old Fautline was nothing but a giant crater filled with tons of huge pits and tilted buildings. You couldn't even actually go to the dam or in the watery area.

Plus the only reason why Galaxy and DA were saved was because of the badges they provided.

As to Rabbit, what were you expecting? Doms are already good and got tweaked awhile back. And any powerset they get can be proliferated to other sets, so I don't really know what they can get that would be unique to just that AT.

Agreed. Definitely a purchase from me.

Quick Q, though. Did we ever get word on if it's feasible to create a helmet option where bubble isn't see through? A few people remarked how that option would open up a wide variety of costume ideas, akin to famous characters like Mysterio or more modern day astronauts. It'd also knock out another frequent costume part request without having to engineer an entirely new piece from scratch.

They've done two mass name purges in the past. Aside from that, I don't think they will plan on doing another, especially since Freedom is huge on getting old players back into game.

That actually is a massive problem because of how many powers an enemy has also affects difficulty. Give an enemy loads of powers and low level enemies will still have trouble. Give 'em only one or two, and they pose zero threat to 50s.

Best thing they could do is take neighborhoods a step further and have drastic changes between different areas of one zone. Either that, or introduce instanced areas of a zone that only spawn higher level enemies, kind of like how new AP does with the Hellion hideout. Or just give us mission arcs for all levels in a zone and forgot about the streets, because no one really does street sweeping anyway.
