Next Booster Pack Idea

Id love to have a skeletal outfit or just have like a long sleeve that covers my hands like a long robe...

Robes could be made just as a new upper body layer as for amulets and so on, those could be tagged on with shoulder pieces like the neck spiked neck collar. It probably doesn't need to be anything special maybe a small glow or something that looks classy.

As for a temp power id be happy with anything, lolz another funny self destruct power maybe >.<! like throw organs or something..
Oo! i know! A fear attack which can be used in PvE like erm expose insides or "Throw Chemicals" which can burn your foes and cause them random abnormal affects, like immo's or holds, stun, sleep etc... a happy tin of status effects in other words


Union:
"Farah O." Stalker: Street/Energy
"Aoi" Scrapper : Kat/SR
"Supa Troll" Tanker: WP/SS
"Milkman Bill" Brute: Staff/Fire

It's from the devs April Fool joke, where they claimed they were going to delete the sound files for powers, and replace them with comicbook style sound effect bubbles - "Freem" was given as an example of how one of these bubbles would be written to represent a Blaster shooting.

I know it was an April fool, but it was a cool idea.

Yeah - I'd actually like it as a selectable option, but keeping the sounds at the same time - MA would be much better with "POW!" bubbles everywhere

Awesome! I can finally make a Lich King character. Hang on, wait...

Seriously, I do like undead (mmm, brainz), and the generic mystic pack is damned sweet.

Alternatively some sort of Silver Aged suepr booster would be awesome - some alternative capes, more patterns, more face masks, other spandexy goodness and "Heroic Inspiration/Villainous Intimidation" - a temporary PBAoE ally phat buff that lasts a few mins that can be used once/hour.

A Silver Age pack wouldn't really interest me. There are plenty of spandex and patterns already, and I don't think I have ever used any of them.

Golden Age pack I might go for.


I really should do something about this signature.

^You do realise that the Golden Age was pretty much teh dawn of "spandex heroes" right? Ie Superman debut in Action Comics, Original Flash + Green Lantern, Aquaman etc etc

Peacebringers. My Peacebringers tend to wear spandex. Somehow I seem tham as more spandexy than other heroes. (I'm talking the full bodysuit here.)

Got others that wear skintight clothes, but it's the Peacebringers that get the full Superman treatment.

Actually, how about a Peacebringer/Warshade specific booster? With some light based emotes, costume pieces eg "that" sash and maybe a PB based nuke temp power?

how about no, NCsoft isn't going to make a pack that leaves a lot of players out, nether are they gonna make something exclusive for long lasting players.(lvl 50 at least 1)

i do like to see an alien pack, one with extra thin body's and a alien shaped head under monstrous.
you know the archon of starcraft, the energy ball filler with rage.

now what if there are floating legs something like that, or a small aura like the one in the cyborg pack.(not like the archon one, note that...)
i can see it now, ppl trying to make ET, alien emerge.

I'm not talking about a pack that ONLY PB's/WS's can use though. I'm talking about making some PB related items/powers/emotes available to everyone.

The Cyborg Pack was Super Booster number 1, and so of course we have plans for 2, 3, 4 and so on, as we go down the line.

So players can expect more packs along those lines. Some really cool, specifically tailored content that may not apply to every character out there, but we're hoping that everyone finds something appealing in at least one of these packs to make them want to go out and improve their character – give them a kind of unique look, or get that unique power that just dots the I's and crosses the T's on exactly what their character was supposed to be like.

Ummm I don't get you, P?

Well, to be fair, neither Wedding Pack nor the Cyborg pack are applicable to every character, but they each have some elements which are useful to people generally.

Even without a cyborg, the power-up/down emotes seem like a nice idea for any character (slightly guessing, not actually seen them) and the HUD aura is kind of cool for Tech heroes who aren't cyborgs. That's an example.

So you could have a pack with, I dunno, a load of outfit pieces designed for emulating bikers. Not much use if you aren't a biker character, but you might like the motorcycle helmet option and nothing else.

I'm figuring it means stuff like that.

Hmmm yeah I guess. Maybe a Kheldi-booster'd be too specific then?

Ah well....still want an Archery Booster

Maybe but they could do a "alien" one and have some pieces theme on the kheldian forms as well as the rikti and just general alien type bits.

What I never understood was how the cyborg pack seems to be more like an android pack. I mean, most people seem to think it means "make a robot" when a cyborg is part human...


 

Posted

yea i never got that either was expecting some terminator type half and half stuff maybe even some freek style bits

It is a farm more part human part machine than the terminator without flesh (which makes it all machine).

It represents mechanical muscules that protrude through the skin. Use a bare torso with cabled shoulders and chest detail.

Rikti costumes have the same issues as the arachnos ones: they are not compatable with non-rikti costume parts. The only way to do it would be like the VEATs, you have a seperate costume slot for your rikti costume.


[/ QUOTE ]

Which makes VEATs a rip IMO

I wanna be a Dalek. No, I don't expect it'll ever happen but... imagine playing an Elec or Energy blaster in a Dalek cossie... that would be... rather good

That Dalek idea has me torn - on the one hand, you could customise your AR blaster's weapon to look like a plunger sellotaped to a large stapler. Hurray! On the other, You'd look like a dork using Super Jump in the full Dalek costume.

Technically, a pair of glasses makes you a cyborg...

Still, I was expecting much more flesh, rather than that weird wood/plastic veneer it's got.

Not that I don't like it, it's just not cyborg.
