    What kind of community is it where VIPs and Prems have to change their behavior, abandon a Paragon tradition because Freeloaders might get their feelings hurt.

    We can be a community with the motto "Winning is it's own Reward" or we can be a community with the motto "Winning doesn't matter Unless it comes with a large Reward".

    I'm not the one who wants to do away with CCs, I don't want to take away the chance for Freeloaders to win a contest. I wamt them to enter. I just don't care if they can't get the prize money, they can live with tells and broadcasts that say "Great Coustume, you deserved to win".

    When I first heard of Freedom I though CCs would be perfect for the freeloaders, all those people standing in the same place for 20+ mins, talking in local. I think CCs are a great way for Freeloaders to meet others, getting rid of CCs just sounds like a plan to screw over everyone. Even Freeloaders.
  2. I didn't see Aveata's name listed anywhere, is she not going to Pax? you know what that means if she's staying home?

    The Coh panels aren't going to be as pretty as last year.

    Tuff titty said the kitty when the milk went dry. They can go Premium if they want to continue their beauty pageant career.

    Freeloaders can stand in a CC line with everybody else. Just because they have less crayons then we do doesn't mean they can't paint a pretty picture. Just because I have more options then they do my costumes aren't guaranteed to beat theirs in a beauty pageant.
  6. First comic I bought was 75 cents and minimum wage was $3.50. When comics were cost $1 minimum wage was $5. Today comics cost $4 and the federal minimum wage is $7.25.

    Once upon a time you could go mow someones lawn, work an hour, and if they went cheapskate and only payed you the minimum they had to, you still ended up with enough money to buy almost 5 comics. If that happens to a kid today they can get 1 maybe 2 comics.


    Something to keep in mind we considering the price of comics today compared to pre 1995ish. Comics wear printed on a cheaper material with a more limited color array. In the mid 90s the comic industry upgraded to a higher quality paper that gave us gloss and many many more colors for the art work. That same upgrade added big numbers to the price of a comic. I'm only pointing this out since in Japan, they sell alot of comics(mangas) but they print on the cheep paper and in Black and White to keep the price down.

    One thing that is the same today as it was when Stan Lee and Jack Kirby created Spiderman, Fantastic Four and the X-men. A new comic is going to give you 20 minutes or so of fresh never seen before entertainment. In 2011 the price of a comic can get me 8 hours of fresh entertainment from Redbox. For the cost of 4 comics I can subscribe to MMO for a month. Comics don't offer a whole lot of "new" bang for a buck.

    Once upon a time if you were Batman fan and you wanted to collect Batman your only option was to collect comics. Today, you can be a Batman fan and collect action figures or DVDs or Video games. Maybe its apples and oranges to compare comics and action figures. I just think we should take into consideration if DVDs and Action fiqures didn't exist those Batman fans could possibly be buying Batman comics to fill their Batman needs.
  7. I asked Ghost Rider what he thought of your idear

  8. What an interesting way to grief. You want to give me a power that when I toggle it on my teammates don't get rewards.

  10. while sitting at the character select screen a couple weeks ago I realized a lot of my toons are wearing the Sinister boots. The plain ones, not the version with the spikey shin guard.

    Or indirectly discouraging exploration by concentrating options/resources in a single spot. What's the point of creating a virtual world if players have fewer reasons to travel through it?
    The new starting contacts red and blueside, plus the Twinshot and Dr Graves arcs, plus the disappearing npcs have done more to make this world seem immersive and alive then anything the devs have done before. Your hypothetical question over looks all the work the devs have done to make Atlas and Mercy seem fresh and new.

    That this thread wouldn't even exist if the devs had simply creating extra tailor NPCs on the map or Icon stores for each zone is a discouraging indicator for CoH Freedom as it approaches launch.
    Changing one menu vs editing every map that has a trainer in it? Which of these two options require more work?
  12. Before every gets there hopes up, you can only teleport to contacts you've never met. Contacts that get introduced to you via pop up ( Montague Castanella, Darrin Wade) you can never teleport to since the game automagically introduces you.


    One super awesome thing about the teleport to contact feature, it appears redside you get introduced to contacts that normally require some ridiculous unlock such as Veluta Lunata being locked behind the Pirate Accolade.
  13. You could've just turned on sprint traveled 600 yards and trained up at BaBs.
  14. Miss Liberty can't change your gender.
  15. How cute, a bunch of roleplayers (well not really a bunch, just the same ones posting multiple times) making a mountain out of a mole hill.

    here's a blog Chris started just after he got left go

    Couple months ago someone I was teaming with in STO said Babs has been working at Cyptic for awhile now.
  17. I thought Ridley Scott was going to do an Aliens prequel...


    I'm glad Ridley is doing something Sci Fi.
  18. On Beta everyone is a Premium account.

    We are able to invite others to our SG.

    We are able to edit bases.

    Don't know if Prem will be able to pay base upkeep yet, I haven't found an SG with any rent due to see if the Base Registar would even give me that option.
  19. Was it mentioned if a Premimum player can gain the ability through the Rewards Program to invite people to a Supergroup?
  20. I was hoping this was about a new Hellboy movie
  21. Spider-Man is super strong but he doesn't have super strength.

    Hulk, Thor, Juggernaut, Superman. Those guys have super strength and Spider-Man is no where near as strong as those guys.
  22. Happy Birthday David!!

    How old are you? I think Posi and Jay should drag you out into the parking lot, saw you in half and count your rings. I personally don't think you're old enough to buy cigarettes. You're the Dougie Howser of Concept artists
  23. Has anyone ever actually seen Hamidon Tentacles in Ramiel's arc. I realize one of the artist put the tentacles in the concept art, but after 7 trips through that mission I've never seen any tentacles.
