    Next CoP Attempt

    i'd better get on doing my villain alignment mission then.
  4. not really selling me with a post goin "yeah these parts aren't too specific at all, here's one specific use i found for them! and check out how flexible all the other boosters are in comparison!".

    but so i'm not just crappin up your thread, i made a costume trying to integrate the new booster pieces into an existing costume to spruce it up without feeling overly forced.

  5. huge disappointment.

    while they LOOK incredible, they seem very limited compared to other boosters, and the pieces all seem super specific and limited in use. there's a lot of people who wanted something entirely different out of this pack, i am not one of these people, but i still don't want to pay for what's being offered up either.

    it's a shame this kind of quality and level of detail aren't applied to all costume sets, paid or otherwise.

    this one is in the supergroup building in port oakes.

    the cyrus statue is literally right in front of the tram station in KR
  7. that's where i thought it was too, but that plant isn't there in the original
  8. i never cared for granite armor really. it's one of the reasons besides the slow movement i won't play the set. the other reasons besides slow movement are being changed in issue 16, so i guess we're almost down to just slow movement.

    so put me down for "all for a change, don't care if it makes me bigger or not, hopefully it looks cool".

    Mind/Nrg Build

    mind/en has been my main since beta, and i love it. your build looks fine imo, but i'd suggest terrify over total domination. or if you want to keep total domination, then maybe instead of surge of power?

    i don't know, i wasn't too impressed with surge of power. i never really needed it at all, but if i did it wouldn't really be a sufficient panic button, because if i needed it i'd be in pretty deep.

    here's the issue 15 version of the build i've been using for years now. it's worked out great for me on teams and solo, still my favorite dom to play (out of 8 o_O). not suggesting you use it over yours or anything, but if you want you can use it as a reference for what other people have done with theirs.

    hope you can get into it and have fun

    I16 Closed Beta

    Possible bug there.

    "The One"
    yeah mine is the same way. previously it would say "this account doesn't have access to the test server at this time due to the issue x closed beta blah blah", but now it's just saying "lost connection to dbserver" when i click training room.

    LRSF Dom

    if you already have someone who can sleep and you want to contribute something else i'd recommend an earth/psi personally.

    mainly because earth has nice amounts of -def, and drain psyche has -regen. it could help with the hero killing a good amount.

    Tricky!

    yeah protector is dying
  13. Some electro might work well on multiple levels for Synapse. He doesn't seem like a very serious guy most of the time (are you using inspirations?). Only problem I can see is it being grating on your viewers, not for everyone I guess.

  14. Arc Name: The Conference of Evil: Shareware Version
    Arc ID: 177470
    Faction: Villainous
    Creator Global/Forum Name: @6X
    Difficulty Level: Best played on a team from 45-50. A little Hard. 8 AVs, 1 Custom Escort.
    Estimated Time to Play: 1 Hour or so.
    Synopsis: Disappointed no villains have been unlocking his arc lately, Viridian puts a shareware version of it up on the Architect Entertainment servers.

    Basically I did my best to remake one of my favorite arcs in the game, from a secret contact not many people actually bother unlocking in regular play. Some things are changed, or missing, but it's shareware, you can't give it all away

    It's light on text, but no lighter than the original without directly copying it word for word. I in no way claim this is original work, and it's not very creative, but I wanted people to play this arc!

    Souvenir lists the requirements to unlock the full version if you're interested.
  15. One time I got 25 tickets, so I checked up on my arc and somehow I had hit 5 stars, which combined with my number of ratings, put me on the first page. Before I could even refresh again, "someone voted on arcname", banished back to page 3740287.

    I dunno I don't think my arc is that great compared to some others, but I don't see what world it could deserve 1 star in. Everything works, I put effort into the writing, I tried to make my custom critters as inoffensive and "can be played by anyone" as possible, ans everyone who HAS given me feedback, has claimed to have fun with it, or at least given me ways to improve it.

    Couple that with the fact you never receive feedback with these votes ever, so you have no chance to improve, it's just a frustrating phenomenon. It kinda makes me wonder if we'll ever have a legitimate, lasting hall of fame arc, if any arc that hits page one doesn't stay there more than a couple hours.

    Thanks for the review That boss text was one of like 3 changes I just could not get to stick no matter how many times I tried. But I think it's fixed now, the placeholder was kind of a shoutout to a friend who tested it with me, who says similar things when they die

    I got like 20 new plays today, thanks reviews for short arcs thread!
  17. 9882 please and thanks

    2 missions, no defeat alls, lots of optional stuff, last map is big-ish i guess.
  18. Dang

    Anyhow, here's a quick spruce up of my not-really-magic-based Mind/En Dominator Antisocial
  19. Are those front-split folded boots male only? I can't find them anywhere.
  20. All of the SoA arcs are really a letdown

    The story is extremely predictable and really doesn't even get good or interesting until 40+, where you're treated with a one mission arc and then a 3 mission arc. Up to that point, the 2-3 missions every 5 levels are really uninteresting, and could probably be condensed to one long arc at 15, instead of stretching Fortunata Hamilton all that time.

    Also, needing to unlock the 45-50 Alan Desslock arc is kind of confusing, as most people I know, myself included, save the big Recluse fight for as close to 50 as possible. Luckily I did it at 47 this time, but I was pretty much convinced there wasn't one up til that point.

    Any way we can see the Elec Assault set for Dominators like you put up Mental Manipulation?

    Thanks in advance.

    Honestly, I'd say don't waste your time on power customization, just keep giving us the awesome stuff you always have been instead of breaking your brain over how to make it work, or stressing over people asking for it all the time.

    Cause once you figure out how to make every power's color tintable so you can have green energy blasts but black energy fists, it will be accepted just like weapon customization was, but then "those" people will show up. What about the people who want to shoot fireballs out of their eyes? Or the guy who wants to have fly look like he's skating around on ice? Or the girl who wants a swordfish katana that uses fencing animations?

    Point is, it will never be enough, and it will continue to snowball into more and more work, one step at a time, eating up more time and resources that could have been used on new content you could have cooked up twice the amount of when you were making sure your green laser eyes were green when they hit AND fired.
