Team Search Update

I know that this is a suggestion that's been brought up multiple times. However, with Going Rogue having been announced, it seems like a good time to talk about it. When GR hits, there will have to be a minor change made to it anyway, so that we can search for members of All ATs, rather than just those of our faction like we currently can. Since it has to be worked on anyway, why not make some other changes to it to improve our ability to find teams. Below are some of the things I'd like to see added. How about you?

1. Add the ability to search for a custom level range. I.E. I could search for toons only between levels 33 and 36.

2. Add the ability to search for people by powerset. So if I wanted to only see characters with kinetics, or radiation emission, or superstrength I could.

3. Add the ability for team leaders to list their team in the search tool as looking for more players.

1. You can do this already with the /search command.

2. I wouldn't like because I like playing emps and kins, and I don't want to be bothered by people who can't get over "the perfect team setup" idea.

3. Yes please.

1. Huh, I never knew you could do that with the search command. I thought you were limited to the same level ranges that it shows in the team search window now (i.e. the multiples of 5 and 10)

2. I can see how this would be a problem for some people I guess. I guess I'm guilty of the "perfect team" mentality sometimes too. Mostly for task forces. Maybe there would be a way to hide your powersets from the search if you didn't want people to know what they were. That way, you wouldn't show up at all to people searching for specific powersets.

2 no thanks, my Rad gets spammed with unwanted team invites enough as it is.

3 Yes, I agree with this one completely.

I've got to agree the only thing that would bug me is the second option, since it would not just (potentially) get annoying while playing an emp, but for those *not* playing an emp as well.

"I never search for Trick Arrow/Ice/Sonic...."
