when i found this thread, the first thing i was thinking of was HOM(hall of monument), something GW has.
it's just a room that has all your achievements and shows special things you did, like trophies for finishing a chapter.
i think that if COX has this, we could show our badges.
have a place where we can display our favorite costumes and use that to save them for later use, and a place where we can show our veteran rewards.
this is character based and you can only show it when you have the star, but it might be a fun thing to have.

Don't show for badges and veteran rewards. Badges mean nothing but something shiny, and veteran rewards mean nothing if that player has only PLed his way to 50 all the time.

Calling "PL dude" or "badge dude" a legend would be so very wrong.

you could say the same about a lot of GW characters, most of them are just the rich bastards that get titles by buying everything they need.
that would be called "rich dude" or "grind dude", since a lot of them can only be done while grinding.
and about lvling, i have seen ppl in droknar, and that's a high-end city only for lvl 20.
but guess what, it's still there, because the casual player that doesn't PL doesn't have to suffer from the things PL ppl do.

Then don't do it! Just because GW does it means we should do it. Stop comparing everything to GW, it's a lot better looking and PvP orinatated and it's a fantasy/sorcery/swords game.

I liked GW for a while but it then lost its shine.

Also, are your comments supposted to be against me? Because I don't see anything that really makes me want to disagree, well, except for the comparing to GW bit.

i don't compare everything to GW, i hope COX would never do the failure things GW has currently.
only because i only know GW to have a HOM doesn't meen it's only GW i see, i compare everything to comics and cartoons of marvel out here.
and no, got nothing against you in paticular, why should i?

Perhaps have it as a SG Base extra? That way a SG could have a hall of fame kind of thing?

The statue could be on top of arena? The best arena fighter price or so. Maybe arena would become more popular that way

I do have to ask the question, how can a player power level veteran rewards?

Seriously though, statues are really do-able replacing some of the random ones out and about round the city, it would be nice for certain people such as Mumsy ( check the Union Legends forum before calling suckup as Mothers Love is widely regarded as a well known Union Hero ) but then that leaves us with two options.

Option 1: Statues are voted in by playerbase, however playerbase normally includes whiners that will want their character as a statue, even if they were the only casting vote in their favor.

Option 2: Like in WAR, the game itself picks the players on a weekly / monthly basis meaning a surge of effort is all thats required to get a statue for a month, but may lead to obsessives farming the requirements, meaning others dont ge t a look-in.

The supergroup base item option seems a lot better, perhaps as the much suggested NPC in bases idea, although it would be wierd to meet yourself in your own base...

Statues would be very cool though, you could place a load of them and have your very own Qin Shi Huang style army of statues...

You'd be amazed. The modern tendency for bare stone is, actually, fairly modern. Statues were quite often painted, bejewelled, even be-wigged, at various points in history.

If anyone deserves a statue for all to see in game it would be Mothers_Love.

Rent deserves that statue more tbh.


CoH PvP SG = SuperUnion - Co-Leader - Union/Freedom
CoV PvP VG = Disruption - Co-Leader - Union/Freedom
Global = @Rent & @Rent.

Playgroup are all **** - Global Handle

Heheh, I think the general populus of Paragon City would be terrified to wake up one morning to find your erection towering over them.

I like the idea of a base ornament along these lines.

I don't often disagree with Mumsie but memorials for dead players seems... well if nothing else it kinda cheapens the memorials she sites for people who have paid the ultimate price for what they believed in. That's not to say those who have played and passed on were not good friends but this is still, ultimately, just a game.

Perhaps a level based Vet reward?
