Super Strength and Martial Arts will each receive an alternate animation for their powers, and Stone Armor and Necromancy will include limited customization.

Customized MA animations? Could this mean punches?


I hoped for this, but never expected it to actually happen!

[/ QUOTE ]



That would be so awesome, and way better than a new all-punching set. You could mix and match and have punches AND kicks!

[/ QUOTE ]

I hope. It's what I've wanted for over five years.

$20 says the new animations for MA are simply a mixed bag of copy/pasted melee sets.

If so, I won't complain. Re-using current animations has been one of the long-standing suggestions for creating a punching set.

Even that would be an improvement over 'kick-kick-kick-kick...oyah COBRA! - kick-kick...brawl.'

IMO


Things to remember:
-Common sense ain't;
-Overkill is the only kill;
-If someone asks if you're a god, run away.

Yeah, and?

It's far more easier and resource-efficient to C&amp;P, adjusting animation times and hit effects as needed, than to try and come up with completely new animations. Especially when there are only so many ways you can punch or kick someone.


Positron: "There are no bugs [in City of Heroes], just varying degrees of features."

It's hard to get excited over an issue that contains no new content.

Color me underwhelmed. No pun intended.

Here's a freebie to anyone who wants it:

Pink costume with pink wings

Fire/Fire blaster

All powers tinted pink

The Fabulous Pink Flame-Ingo!


My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

Yep. Punches would mean my level 37 MA/SR scrapper is going to get a lot more use. I'll have to make an MA/Willpower scrapper too.

The best thing about it for me is that I don't have to restart my level 50, totally-maxed-out-with-IOs MA/SR for a Street Fighting set as I'd been expecting I'd have to-- I can just swap some of his kicks out for punches!

And let me be the first to rain on the parade: I hope there is an option in the graphics settings to turn off custom power FX and just show the standard ones.

Two reasons: I know I'm not the only one who won't care for pink dark melee and what not, and there are still a lot of people on slow connections who won't enjoy the increased lag from the extra data that will be sent to them when someone uses a customized power.

'Other features to be announced.'

I remember plenty of other Issues where people have said 'there has to be more than this', but this is the first time I've seen them actually SAY so.

So, we know for a fact there's more to I16 than two eagerly anticipated player-demanded features and a whole heap of power proliferation.

No, they've said 'Other features to be announced.' in many other issues. The thing is that the initial press release has the vast majority of the features and the stuff announced later is minor in respect.

Have to say based on history usually this is the case.

But history really hasn't mattered lately.

One quick question for the devs... Epic and Patron sets aren't mentioned. Are any of them customizable?
