Its hard to imagine a city running without any glue, horses are important

I know the War Walls disrupt traffic, but I'm sure they don't need horse and cart deliveries of their supplies.

Probably a Ponygirl MasterMind-powerset, with (the long requested) whips and a chariot for a travel power.



In all seriousness, Re: the OP, I'll go for colours/emote animation customisation, Pets customisation and textures thrown into the Costume Creator.

IMO it's more a bit of "quick, give what they want, CO is getting close to release", tho, it's nice for the HC COX fans.

I'm not sure it's that "quick" - power customization is a very big task for this engine

I seem to recall a long time ago the suggestion for us to be able to have cats - maybe this is the customisation we are finally getting!

So what would you change about your current powers on your mains then people?

I'ld LOVE to be able to design decoys as a character model, would be the ULTIMATE power then imo! Could literally be what i wanted when i first played, a power that spawns copies of yourself

A blue fireball for my illusion/rad/fire

Dark armour would become white to signify its change from evil to good.


@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

I'm hoping they've seen the APB customisation video and have shamelessly ripped off the ideas behind it whilst applying the mechanics to a spandex evironment.


I'm gonna be disappointed aren't I?

Positron was totally hinting at power customization when he was taling to us in pocket D during the anniversary event.
But using "sysems" rather than "system" is interesting - if they're adding power customization, that'd count as a single large system, I think - but then what would be another system that'd allow greater customization?
The only thing I can come up with right now is some kind of shapeshifting.

[/ QUOTE ]


He did indeed hint heavily at something like this happening and the use of the word "systems" is interesting.

Pure speculation on my part but as the article is by Christopher Bruce could this mean customisation of powers - e.g. colours, certain animations and weapons. Other guesses could be different body shapes in different costume slots, shape shifting I think was hinted at, perhaps even perhaps choices in the character creator - e.g. more colours/combinations for cossie parts etc.

Anyway I'm excited at the thought of the possibilities and it does say within the next few months™

Wait... wheres the link of the new hires for new non-bipedal rigs? o.O

Definitely... i think they have something large and mechanical hidden up their sleeve >.<

I like the way everyone's leapt at the power customisation idea, even though it wasn't specified. They did say they were working on more customisation options, but they didn't say what you'd be able to customise. It could be that extra customisation options just means more costume options and base customisations.

Still, wild speculation is always fun. Personally, I'd love to be able to (finally) customise my pet robots for Little Jenny. As much as I love my botsies, having them look the same as everyone else's makes my mastermind feel just a little less special.

Would love to be able to customise my MM's pets!

You can already recolour MM pets in the issue 15 version of MA.


I really should do something about this signature.

Well my DM/SR would become Light Melee instead. That's the main change I would want to do. I'd like blue electricity on my brute though, cause, well, you know, electricity and all.

Oh and black Ice on my Cold/Dark defender

I've heard that in CO you can change where your powers come from. So bolts of fire from your eyes instead of your hands for example. I wonder if this customisation could be something along those lines.

Another option might be a customisable power set. You pick 9 powers for a primary and 9 more from a secondary plus a built in power (Defiance etc) and the system assigns your HP based on how powerful the powers you pick are (High power powers = low HP). I doubt this very much, but it would be cool.
