Meh, would have much prefered a robot chassis for legs torso and head (ala robotic arm) to this. I dont rate it which is a shame as I was looking forward to it.

Not loving the Glove/Leg/Boot options...but the rest looks amazing. Along with the auras this pretty much ensures I'll be picking it up.

I'm kinda with you on the lower-leg stuff, though I can see some possibilities. The gloves however... those I like... alot.

EDIT: Actually, with Kit's resolution and color-updates, I like the lower leg stuff better now. Thanks for all the work!

What's the deal with the self destruct? Is it an actual Nova-like power, or is it an emote? BaB said something about it not killing Kitsune, which makes it seem like a PBAoE... but if so, do you not garner debt with it?

I mean, it looks cool, sure, but I have to use this emote for the self-destruct thing -->

[/ QUOTE ]

It's a power, and it's SUPPOSED to kill you (doesn't give you debt, you can use self rez/awakens, not sure about others using an ally rez on you), but I've encountered a couple bugs where I wasn't completely killed and other issues. It does more damage than Corruptor/Defender Nukes, and a little less than (some) Blaster nukes... but it has a FAR larger radius than a Blaster nuke.

Thanks for the clarification.

Is it like a Vet power, where you can access it on any character?

Kit, do you know if the damage is enhanceable? I know you can't slot it, but do outside factors such as reds, rage or fulcrum work? Being a temp-power I wouldn't think so, but...

@Ironik
All characters get it and it's automatically in the 'Inherent' section of their power page (no need to click on a badge to claim it).

@Hallowed
The real numbers says it's unenhancable by outside buffs, so I'd imagine they wouldn't.

Battlecries before self-destruct:

"I just can't take it anymore!!!!"

*boom*


"You're telling me I shouldn't have pushed the shiny, red button?"

*boom*


"Oh gods below why did I eat Taco Bell??!?!?!"

*boom*


"I drank what?"

*boom*


Be well, people of CoH.

Awesome KA, thanks.

My eyes aren't bleeding anymore, and the detail really stands out now.

JLove scores again, that detail is fantastic. Kinda disappointed that the Head Detail 2-1 is basically exactly like Vanguard 2, but, the rest of the awesome completely eclipses that


 

Posted

That is fantastic! The Costumes are outstanding!

Awesome Exploit #1 vs Heros and AVs
Run in with my Tanker. Taunt, Buildup, and Detonate.
Teammate hits the group with Vengence off my corpse (if my body can be targetted)
Teammate then rezes me with power of Phoenix for a second mini-nuke, or with any other rez power.
Now everyone is all Vengenced up and at least 1 big nuke has already hit the AV or Hero.

I'm sure there's even more to be had here, but this was my orginal thought.

@Kitsune: thanks for reshooting the parts, looks much better now. And the "full cyborg suit" is a whole helluva lot more impressive, good work all around.

I'm actually kind of disappointed that they didn't give us "terminator endoskeleton" option for one or both legs, and perhaps something similar for the hands. Yes, I'm aware of the Robotic Claw gloves but they are only available with certain chest options. I really wanted a trenchcoat or labcoat with skeletal metal arms sticking out from the sleeves.

Oh well. The pack still looks great. I'm buying as soon as I get home.

Very nice work Devs. The lined textured areas of the cyborg suit (colored a light pink or salmon color) would make a lovely exposed muscle or tendon costume for some scary cyborg villains.


 

Posted

So, is this available NOW, or 'in the short term future'?

I can't seem to find it to buy it! ;_;


 

Posted

Short term future.
As in, later today.
