Here is an idea how about being able to go on a break to a bar or something like that! You know when your Hero wants to take a load off his by taking a break and enjoying a nice drink or something like! lets make CoH/CoV as real as possible! Its just idea btw!
Plz tell me wut you think if this is a bad idea or a good one!

How about if the bar was accessible to both red and blue side, but no combat, just a place to hang out.
We could hold events there like a Winter event, a Valentines event, etc.
We could call it Pocket D, and on certain servers, it would be quite busy.
Check your map.
I know about the Pockent D somewhere new!

How big would you want it to be, and how much would you want it to do?
Can you be a bit more specific?
Just decoratve or actual vendors/etc.?
Here's an idea:
Ever play redside and do the "Rob the casino" mission from the newspaper? Uses a very small map, not much bigger than the DO/SO stores blueside.
Perhaps a few of the storefront doors on the normal city maps could open up to things like this.
When Faultline was revamped, I would have been interested in entering some of the buildings in there.
Or perhaps a bowling alley map, accessed by the bowling alley fronts in Steel Canyon.
Like being able to see a movie or something like that!

Um, like BBQ said, we already have pocket D. I really don't think we need another place just to hang out and chat.

Yeah we definitely need another unused area... I mean.. wait.. uh... never mind.
You know, there's all this whining about lack of such places but still no one ever uses the Midnight Club for anything other than going through to get to Cimerora. Just saying.

While we do have Pocket D, I will admit I've always wanted to see the inside of the supermarkets and bowling alleys. 
Not sure how the Advertising code works, but they might be able to link that to the different CoX movies and throw them into the theaters with the posters updating as the movies change. Could be an interesting way to advert for Going Rogue in-game.

The idea of having spawning missions in the shops and restaurants was part of a bigger Dynamic Content (tm) suggestion.
"Samual_Tow - Be disappointed all you want, people. You just don't appreciate the miracles that are taking place here."
Unless there's some kind of missions, content or whatever in these places, they will be completely deserted 99% of the time. Look at police stations. Cool, but nobody ever goes into them except to talk to a detective, or to log off for the Day Job.

Now see, the police stations are another example of needing more to do. Put the occational costumed villain in the cells, lets us access police files on various villian groups, get stats on street activity, even let us get temp weapons from the armory for bank and other radio missions. The problem is the Devs go through all the trouble to create these rooms which are left mostly unused.
"Samual_Tow - Be disappointed all you want, people. You just don't appreciate the miracles that are taking place here."
It would be kool to have your own house in the game. Like having a house to go to after a hard days work saving ppl. but the house would have your family, roommate or something like that or you could chose to live alone it would be your choice.

After 'Going Rogue', I want the next expansion to be 'Super Sims'...
Facetiousness aside, I'd love an 'apartment', and I do wish there was *surprises* and interesting things to randomly happen when just wondering around and exploring. Like have an NPC follow you, paparazzi-like, or save someone from non-combat threats...
But such will require serious engine upgrades

Ooooh! That just reminded me of an old PnP Champions character I made a long time ago. He was called the Night Writer and he was a reported who specialized on super powered reporting. He used a power suit that gave him the flight speed to keep up with heroes and gave him some protection from stray bullets and energy blasts. He never got involved in the fights though. He just took pictures and notes and reported on the action.
This could be doable in game. Simply add a new enemy group called, The Superazzi. Give them defenses and everything but only give them a camera as their weapon. They shoot with it, but it doesn't really do anything. Have these enemies appear as ambushes randomly when accepting missions from different sources. Have them chase the heroes across zones and land just to take a couple of pictures. Let them despawn just like regular ambushes that are left unattended. Otherwise just let them keep shooting their pictures.
That would be fun to see and could work within the engine capabilities.

Having more NPC activities would be really nice. Like when you see villains spraying grafitti on the walls, you should be able to clean the grafitti up afterwards. When you rescue a person you should be able to interact with them by asking them questions, like asking for a reward, or asking if they need an escort to the hospital, ask for their phone number if you want to do something social with them. Maybe not like a romantic date, but like a date for friends or fun. Ask the person you rescue for a kiss. Interactivity is always fun.
And I know what you mean about more stuff to do in the game. I often get very bored of the constant click, kill, click, kill, repetative stuff in the game. When the Midnight Club was added, there is that little badge hunt where you have to go find all of the clickable objects, they dont glow, or give you any clues they are there, you just had to find them. I thought that was very fun and mysterious.
I would like to be able to go into stores, bars, casinos, etc. and do stuff in there. Like if you could play the games inside the casino. Possibly gamble away all of your influence, or win loads of it. You could click on a slot machine, and a window could pop up (like Wentworths, or the Mission Architect) with interactive buttons to set your bet amount. Winning or losing could trigger emotes like Grief or Cheer if you win or lose.
Think about all of the stuff that you can do in GTA4, like play pool, darts, bowling, go out on dates etc. Some of these things would be nice to see in the game. Of course it would not be as "raunchy" as GTA is. But there are tons of things that a hero could do when he gets bored of hero work.
I can see how some of these ideas might be very difficult, but I have said it many times. Nothing great is done easily. The more that is added to this game, the better.
Be it Super Sims, Casino Games, hunting non-glowing Clickable Objects, or random NPCs following you taking pictures, if it can be done, it should be done.
Good Idea MrAmazing!
Be sure to drink your
I would love to go in a bar with some of my Superhero buddys and have a few drinks!
