That wasn't Cuppa...couldn't be....where's her Trademarked COFFEE?!?!

For some reason, I always pictured her with brown hair.
And not nearly as hot.

Because I am a firm believer in the need for multiple playthroughs to see/achieve everything. I don't agree with being able to earn all the badges/fully experience every mission on a single playthrough. And fixing it so you can't earn badges through missions that are not your own is a good way to fix that.
[/ QUOTE ]
And a good way to piss off a great many people...
[/ QUOTE ]
Meh, people are going to be pissed no matter what happens.
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
Hooray for COV Displays. =D I have one of those in my bedroom.
And... I agree. Cuppa and Pos look nothing like I'd imagined. Posi looks much friendlier and Cuppa looks like my adopted sister. =O
[/ QUOTE ]
LOL 
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm kinda curious what everyone expected them to look like.

[/ QUOTE ]
She may not have had her coffee, but I think it's there in spirit. Every picture we've seen of Cuppa, she just looks like this dynamo of energy - like she rappels off a mountain every morning before breakfast, or something. (I imagine that would in fact be good practice for forum-herding.)
-Guardian-
Crimson Archon - 50 bs/inv scrapper

The Scarlet Spectre - 26 ill/storm controller
Hey Cuppa stole my shirt! I was wondering where it went after the Austin meet-n-greet. I know it's mine cause I was the only female wearing a Villains shirt and Tisirin thought I had stolen it.
*I'm j/k btw. Both my shirt and my cape are safe*
I knew there was another reason I liked you, Tisirin. I'm partial to controllers.

Then you would have to remove the mission badges from Accolade requirements.

[/ QUOTE ]
no you wouldn't. They would be just fine remaining as accolade requirements.
...that's just unreasonable - because you're new to the game, you now don't get any of the special rewards, because you levelled past something during the shortest portion of the game.
You, sir, should go work for Sigil. I hear they're looking for new ways to punish their players.

Heh... anyone ever noticed that Cuppa has yet to be photographed without a beverage?
[/ QUOTE ]
And on top of that not without a bevarge with a high caffeine component

No wonder she's in such good shape, she probably has the metabolism of a jack rabbit with all that caffiene.
EDIT - Oh, yah... also, the exercise probably does it too...
Ummm... should I stop talking now?

I asked Matt if Avilans and BotBS are still on the board, but he misunderstood my questions and said that they will not be the next EAT released. This leads me to speculate that villains will probably get Coralax EATs in I8.
[/ QUOTE ]
Thanks for confirming that.
[ QUOTE ]
Wings, Trenchcoats - Both are coming very soon. Trenchcoats will be unlocked by the long term subscriber program. Wings are costume options and will not be specific to any certain AT.
[/ QUOTE ]
Thanks for confirming this one as well.
I hope you guys don't mind if I attatched you guys' names to those quotes for my guide.
[ QUOTE ]
Thanks for the pics and info Obsidius! Thanks to Jester as well, once the page actually loads. It's taking its time.
[/ QUOTE ]
It was my pleasure. Mearly returning the favor for those who've done the same at the last Meet & Greets. It was the only way I recognized CuppaJo off the cuff

You shut it up! You shut it up right now! No one is a Bunny Foo-Foo unless I allow it!

Great Pics Obsidius.
Yes Howies was great, first time I have ever been there. It is a bit of a drive from Burbank, but worth the trip.
I felt a little odd about using the rest room. In the Men's there is a large plasma screen over the urinal, and it is kind of hard to do your business with a giant pic of Lord Recluse staring down at you! ! ! 
[/ QUOTE ]
Not just staring down, with his eight oversized LIMBS, but also, judging you.

[/ QUOTE ]
Sure. go ahead. Just curious though, what kind of guide are you writing?

[ QUOTE ]
I imagine the Unversities will be the source of the Invention system that was discussed a while back, which makes sense as universities are often research centres. So, Invention system tenatively planned for I8 perhaps. That would be good. I'm not that entranced by the idea of crafting, but I know there are lots of people who are, and anything that adds non-combat based gameplay to the game is a big plus IMO.
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm not too excited. My guess is that whatever they're doing with Universities in I8 will just be bringing the Salvage system to the invididual level. I'm betting that you'll be able to bring your Salvage to a University and make temporary powers out of 'em, or something along those lines.
[/ QUOTE ]
Thats more or less what I expect as well. Salvage crafted into temp powers, inspirations, or possibly some kind on enhancements.
As I said, not exactly something that I'm awaiting eagerly, but it will at least add a new dimension to the game, and expand the accessability of the salvage system to people other than base architechts.

Awesome, thanks guys.
Well, I already have written it for a few months now, but I just continuously update it through posts.
It's my Guide to Upcoming EATs.

Also, you can only get the badge by doing the missions yourself. joining someone else for them will not award it.
[/ QUOTE ]
Hallelujah. Now if only they will fix up most of the other mission badges like that, I'll be happy.
[/ QUOTE ]
You mean like the "War Wall Defender" badge that gets rewarded regadless of whether you succeed or fail?
Just glad they got the "Time spent in BB/ Siren's/ Warburg" badges fixed. No more spending 5 consecutive hours in a zone
[/ QUOTE ]
No, I mean, as in fixing other mission badges (Like the Save the Fortuneteller mission) so you can't get the badge by joining their mission. It has to be YOUR mission.
[/ QUOTE ]
Why is this bad? Sometimes you just... miss the mission or whatever on a toon, it happens. Why is it such a bad thing to be able to join someone else to get the badge that you missed while doing other things?
[/ QUOTE ]
Because I am a firm believer in the need for multiple playthroughs to see/achieve everything. I don't agree with being able to earn all the badges/fully experience every mission on a single playthrough. And fixing it so you can't earn badges through missions that are not your own is a good way to fix that.
[/ QUOTE ]
And it's yet another nail in the coffin that specifically discourages teaming to see and get lost / missed content.
All it'll do is ensure that people plan it such that they ***WILL*** get the badges they want up to and including the point that they'll purposefully get debt, exemplar down so as to avoid earning xp, etc to a greater degree than they already do just to get the badge(s) they want.
So to satisfy some pompous self serving ideal, you'd encourage the palyers to commit further self destructive acts instead of encouraging them to play the game, team up, and have fun.
No thanks. Your "vision" for CoH/V blows chunks IMO.
Virtue: multiple characters.
CoH/V: Woot! Maybe Fun is to be had once again.
Ack! RUN! Regen is glowing mean & green!
If it reduces you, it's a nerf.
If it buffs the mobs, it's challenge.
They are not the same.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Liquid. I have to greatly dissagree with you here. Most people have 1 character they dedicate to badge collecting. Now replay value aside. Your saying that those people should not be able to earn badges outside of missions that our theirs?! Forget that.
There is nothing wrong with the replay value of the game. Playing this game thru as a scrapper is vastly different then playing it thru as a blaster. /End Hijack

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, I am saying that. Especially since then the Dev's would be able to implement Badges where you could only earn one or the other, thus helping individualize the different characters by showcasing what paths they have taken through "life".
