  1. There is only one response to this.

    We asked about this a long time ago and i think the answer given is that we won't be getting that since the Spider powers are not actually direct claw/mace power ports and they want different weaponry attached.
  3. NICTUS KATANA!

    I would honestly put down the money to just have one of the devs right out make it for me.

    Heh Funny thing, my main being well a planeswalker has met gods before, and Promethus doesn't really look like a god by well any measure really and I wish I could say something incredibly snarky to him in response to that line.
  6. Yes I moan and yell at people at a whim but The Community of this game is probably one of the best in all the internet. I only yell at people because I love you all.
  7. I would like to know if anything is going to happen with Red Widow and The Sands/Mynx love storyline.

  9. One thing to note about the freeform choices and CO that you guys are missing is that free form seems to make it a nightmare to change individual powers in a set since during the CO beta some minor power changes caused a ton of unintended consequences to other builds.

    Because popping purples or or oranges situationally is a lot more viable a play style than keeping a steady stream of reds up to maintain a damage increase. And that's without considering Tankers' low damage caps. Four purples and/or four oranges on a Scrapper or Brute, he's very very unlikely to faceplant in 95% of the content in this game. Take a Tanker to the damage cap with reds, which doesn't take much in some cases, and his damage still isn't fantastic; my Brute that doesn't faceplant puts out more damage than my Tanker does hitting his damage cap.

    Scrappers get more from popping survival inspiration because the survival bar for the game just isn't set that high from where they are already, and well built they can be safely above it without inspirations. Comparatively, the Tanker maximum damage bar is set much lower and even at max, it's still nothing to write home about.



    .
    YEP because the game needs to be balanced around Sets and Inspirations, that doesn't alter the science behind the numbers at all! Nerf everyone because we can use outside items to buff ourselves!

    .
    Actually The Thing is listed at more than 75 but no more than 100 tons, which means that The Hulk (a brute) is 100+ and Namor (a scrapper on land atleast) 90-100.

    Also I want to note that the Marvel sense of scale when it comes to strength is LOLtastic in that the highest level is 100+ so that Iron Man in the Hulkbuster is in the same tier as Galactus.

Hypocritical much?



    .
    Hypocritical Not really, I would say misinformed

    In all reality, Thor is an Omega Slotted incarnate. Superman as the last of his kind (give or take) is a champion of the well much like Tyrant is/was/will haven be choose your tense there.

    I still maintain that the best example of a tank is Ben Grimm, who usually distracts the monster of the week while Richards(!) invents some item to take it out permanently.

    Oh really I thought I saw -res in the powers real information?

    that is what I get for not full screening it.
  14. For Medicine

    stimulant is getting replaced with injection, which is like the arrows from the Valentine day power, it is like stimulant if used on an ally, and a -res if used on an enemy.

    the new power is a +Heal on others + Heal on self click

    and there was something about aid self and aid other about them no longer being interruptable but I missed it because I really wasn't paying attention cause I honestly never use medicine and even with the changes likely never will.

    Edit : Also this sorta became an all star version, Hawk and Aeon showed up for a minute.
  15. The Leadership one was called Victory Rush, it is a defeated enemy click like Extracted Essence and gives the team a recovery boost and an endurance discount.

    Really, most of the new release blue rays I see are 30ish.

    I need to move.

    Just as a cost for the movies that comes out to about 24 dollars per movie, which is not bad for blu-ray
  19. I demand that Beuford gives Venom an Atomic Wedgie!
  20. I want to see the price before I call foul, but hey if you can afford it, I would get it just for the pimpingness of it.

    I can't see the existing powers in Leadership getting a buff in any way.



    .
    I can see maneuvers getting some sort of buff >.> I would like DDR added to it, as for a fifth power, perhaps +Res all to everyone?

We now have the ability to back these up on our YouTube channel, another official channel.

    Nothing that's been discussed has broad Marketing Value. It's all very Community centric and really is something that's only interesting to current/former players of the game. When we're closer to beta, we'll release a full Issue 24 overview (I was just talking to Black Pebble about this today).

    And here I thought that the Community would be excited about getting news about upcoming changes prior to the actual announcement.

    I think..you misread what people are saying Zwill, I think what is being said is "we are excited about stuff TELL US MOAR!"

    *looks at the rest of the playerbase* Yes I am defending you lot, remember this next time I say something that hacks half of you off.

    Also >.> Can we have more enhancement slots! please! I know it breaks things but now there are almost no skippable powers in blaster primaries I need more slots!

    I have been advocating an issue of just bug fixes, reworking powers that are not working and just tweaks since the Rikti War issue, yeah it would be an uninteresting patch overall but do all the powerset proliferation at once hash out all the bugs that would cause along with most of the other bugs fix up the powersets and hold off on content.
