    Will this work?

    I hope so. Contrary to popular belief, Justin Beiber is not a god.
  3. Damn. Forgot to mention KHAAAAAAN and Barracuda.
  4. 1. Imperious-Epic, lots of enemies in a great setting.
    2. Lady Grey-Epic battle against another central villain group
    3.Ms. Liberty-Epic, challenging battle against practically every Archvillain in one of the main villain groups in the game.
    4. Positron (Lumping both parts into one)-Love fighting Dopplegangers, Dr. Vahzilok's dialogue in the last mission's cutscene is epic and gives him great characterization.
    5. Apex-Awesome maps, fending off War Walkers from the Police station in Kings Row, epic final battle.
    6. Admiral Sutter-Cool maps and unique (Albeit sometimes aggrivating) mechanics for the final battle.
    7. Tarikoss-Awesome map for the final mission
    8. Twilight's Son-Because this was probably my favorite story in the comics.
    9. Numina-Fighting nearly every villain group in almost every blueside zone just makes this TF feel epic.
    10. Synapse-While I think it REALLY needs to be revamped and cut into two pieces, you still get to fight good 'ol Babbage and then the Clockwork King on one of my favorite maps in the game.

    And this isn't the forum to discuss this. Let me direct you to the Comic and Hero/Villain Culture forum where a thread has already been made.

  6. The Count... how many Sesame Street characters were like him...

    ONE!

    Rest in peace, vampyric counter of objects.
  7. The Devs have stated that the base code is very clunky and trying to fix one thing COULD break EVERYTHING. I'm sure they WANT to bring base raids back, but the question is whether they can devote the resources to it.

    Also, you may notice that some of the Praetorian Archvillains look different.

    In addition to the Circle of Thorns.

    It would be hilarious to go up to him and just say "'Sup, Zwill! Hi, peoples on TwichTV! "
  10. ...Good grief! Let's not even try to make ANY of the enemies interesting. Seriously, I just want this argument to end. I have a serious migraine right now and these arguments are NOT helping!

    And to contribute to this...

    If a level 50 Peacebringer asks how to get to Peregrine Island... That's not a good sign, is it?

    There is nothing wrong with having an opinion. It's just that the majority of people here seem to DISAGREE with it. This happens sometimes.

It was terrible. After they redid them, they looked great again. I'm perfectly happy with the CoT we have in game now.

    Which brings me to the Skulls. They look like Skulls. They look like better Skulls, actually. I have no idea why the OP thinks this is an issue, or how it can even compare to the horribleness of the initial CoT redesign.

    I suppose it's like the people that still bring up extreme examples and try to connect them to current issues. "They are changing Corrupter's Rain of Fire? This is exactly like ED, and people will leave in droves!"*

    *No one I know has said that, but the sentiment has been flung around on way too many occasions.
    Some people have different opinions. (This is fine if you ask me.) Some people are easily angered. (Some people lose their tempers when they WIN at chess) Some people are also resistant to change.

    Actually, then in that case, a lot of RL gangs are racist.

    Very few of the enemies in this game have been given deep character development until recently. Think about it: before GR, the Praetorians were basically "What if the heroes were villains?" The Clockwork were basically generic animated scrapheaps who were animated by the Clockwork King to take over the city.

    Less cliche', more depth. In my opinion, a good thing.

They don't stand out as much anymore with the new textures. I'm not a big fan of the Death Dolls' look, but eh. The only thing I despise is the Pocket D pack hair. I hate it. I hate it so very much, and not just the "Oh hey that guy's hair is ugly, I'll beat him up!" hate, but the "Dear God why did you even give this hairstyle a passing thought when deciding what costume pieces to put in the game" hate. I hate it so much that I hope all the people who came up with, drew, designed, and then actually put it in game go bald because anyone who thinks that is a good looking hairstyle does not deserve a full head of hair.

    Anyways, that's my two cents. Good job on the revamp, but for the love of God get rid of the club hair.
    I disagree. I kinda like the club hair. It gives off a rebellious/messy/chaotic vibe and is in better resolution than the "Wild" hair.

  20. It is mentioned in their bios that the Ruin Mages of the Circle of Thorns were at one point powerful enough to level entire cities.

    Heh. When put that way, a mini-Apocalypse event WOULD be kinda funny. (Maybe turn on the Halloween event for JUST THAT DAY?)

    Makes me think about how they released Issue 7 on 6/6/06. I don't know if that was an intentional joke or it was just ready then but that was PERFECT.

  22. Yeah, WAY too religious in theme. It's just going to end up offending certain people. (Not just the people who have to do the "Tribulation" either.)

    Also, I do believe that myth was debunked, that the Mayan calendar doesn't end on December 21?

    Would this event conflict with the Winter Event that will most likely be running on this day?

    Also...

    Ghost's Origin?

    I would say sheer force of will probably. So I guess Natural.

    Ghost's Origin?

    I need ideas for what Origin would be most appropriate for this concept: The ghost of a hero who was killed in the Rikti War who came back from the dead to fight on the behalf of Paragon City once more.

    What Origin do you think would be most appropriate? I've ruled out Science and Technology already. I'm split between Magic and Natural.
