  1. I just downloaded the launcher for Mac as I had no idea that it was available until today. I've noticed that the game is, increasingly, losing connection (i.e. "Lost connection to Mapserver"). Any thoughts on how to fix this or what the problem could be?

    A Few Ideas

    I very much enjoy playing this game and had some ideas that I would like to share. I can't remember if I posted these ideas before, although, I admit one is new.

    IDEA 1: I wonder if it would be difficult to offer alternate animations for travel powers. These could provide options for individuals to match a power animationi to their origin. For example:

    Flight: Alternate versions for flight could have one or two jet packs to allow Natural, Science, and Technology origins utilize this power without having to get the rocket boots or design a costume with wings, just to make flight viable. Group flight would include jet packs that appear on individuals who are within the radius of the power.

    Superspeed: Not everyone wants to be the Flash or Quicksilver with superspeed. Why not provide an animation of a motorcycle or some other wheeled vehicle so, again, Natural and Technology could have viable options of animation to make their ability more "realistic"?

    Superjump: We have the piston boots to address this an alternate animation. Though I would be curious if anyone else has an idea.

    Teleportation: Perhaps the animation of tapping out something on one's wrist or belt that looks like it is more Technology-based.

    IDEA 2: As I was looking through news online, I noticed an article about "lost" cities and it made me wonder the feasibility of creating other "cities" that heroes can go to outside of Paragon. As much as I love Paragon, it would be interesting to travel to other parts of the world, to lost cities, etc. Perhaps create specific environments for a story arc if there is question about stability of servers having space for long-standing zones.

    IDEA 3: Are there any other travel powers in the works? I like the idea of a grapple hook, tunneling, ice and/or rock bridge/floating piece of ice/rock. What other magnificent ideas do players have? And are the Devs working on any of this?
  3. Love the guide. Used it to build my Dominator, which is one of my favorite toons. The only question I have now is which is the best Epic Pool to get/which one is most commonly gotten? I have a concept character but it doesn't seem like any of the Epic pools in Villains really fit with a concept (any concept really). Also, has anything changed? Since we are embarking on I-17, I'm curious if any of you have noticed any changes in the power set. I has been a while since I logged on as my Dom and can't tell if anything has changed. Thanks for the help!
