Um, Turbo?

The Photobucket links are taking me to the main page, not the pics.

Yes.

Not my links. They are copied and pasted from the big thread and they were all working when I posted this.

The photobucket links you copied aren't the full links to the images, Turbo. Mouse over one of them and you'll see that they're all abbreviated. That's why users (myself included) are being kicked to the photobucket main page.

Fixed links: 1 2 3

Gilded Guillotine is my lvl 26 db/wp scrapper. He's a huge gold robot.

I will definitely be buying this.


Be well, people of CoH.

I didn't even really ever have a robotic character until about 2 weeks ago, so this comes at a perfect time. And yes, she's bound to explode. She's modeled somewhat after GLaDOS... heheh.

b'boum.

Based on those shots I'm kind of underwhelmed, actually. Which is a real shame, given the sheer number of androids, robots and cyborgs I have. (Both my 50s, Photon X and Future Shock, are an android and cyborg, respectively.)

I'll have to see one in-game to check it out, but it rather looks like a variation on the Enforcer stuff.

well Kitsune's graphics are pretty low judging from those screenshots, I'm sure they'll look shiny and more detailed on higher settings.

It's not so much the quality of the screenshots as it's the overall design. For an extra $10 I was hoping for something a little more out of the ordinary. The auras are in that ballpark, but the costume bits aren't.

Basically they look like variations on existing themes. Mangler Gears, but different. Vanguard Belt, but altered. Enforcer detail, shifted.

It's more about how you can make more unique combinations using Vanguard, Enforcer, and Cyborg sets. Cyborg sets gives a lot of cool shoulder and face plate options to choose from as well.

Shoulder pad options don't do anything for me. I think I've used maybe two in all the characters I've ever made, mostly because they don't integrate well with the rest of the costume parts. Same for the chest stuff. It often just seems to be stuck on the front rather than part of the outfit.

As I said, the rest of it, like the pants and gloves options, just seem very Enforcer-ish to me. Too much so.

The only thing of all those pieces that interested me at all was the new faceplate. That's a cool item. But if you stick an aura on it, you lose the eyes, which are the key to its coolness. Not sure it's worth $10, honestly.

Ironik,

I'm having the same issue with the costume pieces. Stealth, enforcer, cyborg... too similar.

I hate being critical, (ok, that's probably BS,) but the term "calling it in" seems appropriate here.

It's worth the 10 bucks to me for nothing other than the self-destruct power.


Be well, people of CoH.

From what I gathered in the big thread, it's bugged that it didn't kill Kitsune. But you don't get debt.

Still not posted.

Log in to Manage Account, then Play NC store, then open up the CoH/V section. It will probably be listed under the wedding pack... which I'll probably snag as well today.


Be well, people of CoH.

Yah I'm thinking the Cyborg costume bits aren't all THAT great. Jay could have done a lot better. The Crey Agent cyborg gear would have been a good starting point.

But damn... combat auras... sweet. And yes, the Self Destruct is a stroke of genius, especially for robot/cyborg/clone characters.

It's about [censored] time we got thigh options that actually have new model bits. These costume pieces kick the [censored] out of the Enforcer and Vanguard sets. Now we just need the PPD hardsuits broken down and added in as regular costume pieces.
