I'd like to know what it would take for the Devs to enable SS to run over all objects and water like DcO

Hi,

I did a search and didn't see these suggestions for Travel powers. But if they have been made and I missed them, forgive the duplication.

I would like to see as choices for travel powers:

1) Ride-able custom motorcycles
2) Ride-able custom cars
3) Grappling hooks/lines and zip-lines for swinging from buildings
4) Levitating platforms of various types - hover boards, chairs, cars, carpets, ice, earth, water
5) Custom jet/rocket packs -- would include rocket/jet belts

And I would be willing to buy a travel powers booster pack to get these. Even pay $12.99 instead of the usual $9.99.

Again, if these have already been suggested and I missed them in my search, sorry for the duplication. Thanks for the air time.

What?! The ideas aren't original? I'm not an creative thinker? ::facepalms::

P.S. Still want those travel powers though.

I have a question about travel powers....why don't the sprint powers accept universal travel 'hancers? They accept run sets, but not the universal...are there any plans to change this?


When's the next altaholics anonymous meeting again?

They don't accept the "Universal Travel Powers" IO sets because mechanically, all of the Prestige Sprints (available as 12 month Veteran Reward powers) would then also accept those same sets, and you could have someone 2 or 3-slot all five powers (Sprint + all 4 Prestige Sprints) with "Blessing of the Zephyr", which would grant decent bonuses to Ranged Defense and (if 3-slotted) AOE Defense.

Before BotZ got nerfed in I17, it was an even bigger bonus. And frankly, if it was going to get changed, it would have happened after the BotZ nerf. Since it didn't, I think we can safely assume the matter is closed.

Now for my question.... is there ever, EVER going to be any way to get Slide other then the original Collector's DVD? Come on, Devs.... please??

If they ever do, hopefully it'll be color-tintable. I like the power, but I don't like the fact that it's pink.

Well, as long as this has been raised from dead as a shambling undead mockery of all that is holy and right in the world, I might as well enjoy it!

I've seen many requests for a vehicle power pool. I'd be happy with alternate power animations for existing powers.

Flight: Mini-copter, jet pack, flying hover board, flying carpet. We have many wings now!
Super Speed: Motorcycle, horse (not likely!), hover (ground effect)/skate board.
Super Jump: Pogo Stick? (Help me out here!) We already have Piston Boots as a costume effect!
Teleport: Warp effect (walk into portal), tunnel/dig effect (if on ground at source & destination), blurred line connecting source/destination.

I'd be willing to pay for a "Travel" pack with animations like these! It would be worth more to me than a Party Pack!

Hi all, I'm going to close this thread and let it rest in peace. If you want to discuss travel powers, feel free to make a new thread about it. Let's not disturb this one's eternal slumber with thread necromancy.
