A Poll: For Fun


Archiviste

 

Posted

After five plus years, lots of brave heroes and dastardly villains have come and gone. Today CoX is alive with new material, challenges, and adventure for all, even more so with the advent of Mission Architect. Still, I wonder a few things about my fellow players, particularly those who, like myself, call Protector home. With that in mind, I have a short impromtu poll, feel free to answer as much or as little as you like, it is afterall just for fun.

1. What is your favorite AT?

2. What is your favorite zone?

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

Enjoy.

1. What is your favorite AT?

Brutes. They need a little work, but I'm a fan of revving up these super-powered diesel engines, then storming through the map on a high of rage.

2. What is your favorite zone?

St. Martial. It needs more storyline in it, there's so much going on in there, but we're given snippets about demons clambering for Johnny Sonata's soul and "Oh hey, there're Freakshow and Carnies here..."

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

The Terra Conspiracy. Lots of information on Hamidon in there, and the Devouring Earth are a surprisingly diverse enemy group. It's also a little bit of a tear-jerker as Terra becomes a hideous freak that can only be described as an Uber Devourer.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

The Tech stores. They've got so many nifty gadgets in those display cases! So much better than the Natural stores (display cases full of supplements), or the magic stores (books and scrolls!? Come on Merlin! Magic me up!).

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

Scirocco, though Black Scorpion comes in a close second. Scirocco seems to genuinely believe in making a better world, though he's obviously going about it in entirely the wrong way.

Black Scorpion, though, is surprisingly up-front with you and treats you with a peculiar respect.

Mako comes in third simply because of his "I'm gonna betray you. It might be because I feel you threaten me, it could be because you get in my way, or maybe I want to know what you taste like. I just want you to know so you cna be prepared." attitude.

Founders. It's gorgeous

3. Which is your favorite story arc?
That's a tough one. The Tyrant arc is fun and challenging, and the entirety of the Croatoa arc is interesting. And, of course, one cannot forget the Westin Phipps arc for sheer naughtiness.

Quote:
4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?
Kinda like Ghost Falcon, though I do have a long standing relationship with Serafina.

Quote:
5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?
Kinda hard not to love Ghost Widow.

1. What is your favorite AT? Oddly, it has come to be blasters.

2. What is your favorite zone? Croatoa... I just wish the daylight was a little lighter in there. Also love Eden... the earth reclaiming the land.

3. Which is your favorite story arc? As much as I don't like playing villains, I like the story arc about Wretch. It's so sad and touching. Don't know the name of the Arc.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best? Mutation!

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best? Well, I only have one villain with a Patron... so... Ghost Widow.

1. Favorite AT? A bit of a tie Between Controller and Defender

2. Favorite Zone? Call me odd but Overbrook (y'all call it Faultline). Just something about it.

3. Favorite Story Arc? O Wretched Man wins hands down. It's the only arc that I really care about the characters in it.

4. Paragon City Stores? Pandora's Box. It's got that antique bookstore feel to it.

5. Favorite Patron? Ghost Widow. As above, it's the only one I really enjoy the story for.

1. What is your favorite AT?

Tanks. Specifically when a player is doing it well. I have two, and I am learning.

2. What is your favorite zone?

Anywhere the broadcast channel is quiet of AE stuff.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

Ubleman

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

Steel: Mutation because it is close to the Wentworths.
Skyway: Natural because it is close to Babbage (sic?) spawn.
Talos: Generic
IP: Tech, close to tram.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

What is a patron?


Sometimes, I impress my boss. Sometimes, I impress myself. The rest of the time, I scare people. I can live with that.

1. What is your favorite AT?

Even if I rolled more blasters than anything else, I would have to say Tanker, my one and only lvl 50 being one of them...

2. What is your favorite zone?

Croatoa.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

So far, Gaussian's arc, The Red and the Black.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

Vanguard Quartermaster

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

Don't have high enough villains to have a Patron

I suppose I should have already replied to this, but here goes...

1. Tanker. Mine live my the motto: So other might shine.

2. Talos Island. From busy streets to beautiful waterfalls, it has something for everyone.

3. To Save a Thousand Worlds. The Pure Flame you keep at the end... haunting and a bit sad really.

4. The magic shops all across town, they're really quite cool.

5. Scirocco. I suppose I identify the most with him.

1. What is your favorite AT?

An interesting question, and one that I can't readily answer. I've played every AT a good while, and I like most of them. I think at the end of the day, it's more about spec than archetype.

But I'll go with Bane Soldier, since no one else has picked it yet.

2. What is your favorite zone?

Shadow Shard, the geometry is awesome for sight-seeing.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

Mine, or at least it would be if I could still use the correct map for mission 4.
I've done most of the arcs in the game several times, and most of them just get annoying after a while. But I still like the Faultline multi-arc.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

I guess the Tech store in Talos, as I fight a lot of Tech enemies and it's close to the train.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

I'll go about this question a different way and look at the powers they offer.
Mako gives some pretty cool stuff, what with the cold cone that causes a resist debuff and Hibernate. Ghost Widow's Darkest Night has great utility for brutes and Shadow Meld is incredible for defense-based Stalkers. I'll go with Ghost Widow, but Mako is close second from that resist debuff.

1. What is your favorite AT?

Scrappers, no shocker there

2. What is your favorite zone?

Croatoa, I love the zone I love the story arc there too.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

A Hero's Hero, it as a lot of AV for me to solo with my Scrappers. It is also a good story too.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

I would say the Magic stores.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

Ghost Widow!

Posted

1. What is your favorite AT?

Dominators, Fortunatas, Scrappers and Blasters in this order.

2. What is your favorite zone?

Tough choice - Founders was my original "oooooooh, pretty" zone - entering FF for the first time left a lasting impression on me.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?

I'm fond of any of the Television's arcs. They're all very well written.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?

Magic then Natural.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?

Story arc? Scirocco. Power f/x? Ghost Widow.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?
1. Defenders.
2. I don't think I have one. Cause no one zone jumps to mind immediately. So I'll go with Steel Canyon since it's like the Atlanta of CoH.
3. Ending the Vahzilok Plague. It's your first real AV fight, and it just FEELS heroic.
4. Orion Labs. I love em so much, I go to em even when I make a non-science toon
5. Mako

Wentworth... If that qualifies as a store

Since it's 4AM, and I can't sleep...

1. What is your favorite AT?
Loves me a brute. Rarely play on teams with them, but for solo they can't be beat.

2. What is your favorite zone?
Hmm...St. Martial. Just because, the first time I was in that zone, I thought "Ohmygod, that's a casino". And I love carnival of shadows, so their area is kinda cool.

3. Which is your favorite story arc?
Not an arc, but I lol'd for days when I realized the television sent me to kill the radio.

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best?
The one with the best sale.

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best?
I hate to repeat what everyone has said, but Ghost Widow. She's just cool.

1. What is your favorite AT?

I really enjoy playing support, so Defenders and Controllers kind of get a combined vote, but for all around "I LOVE this damn toon !" it's Tankers !

2. What is your favorite zone? St. Martial is beautiful at night, on Blueside, Dark Astoria is just creepy enough to be scenic.

3. Which is your favorite story arc? I'm with Wolfie on this one. "O, Wretched Man !" is the best storytelling I've seen in the game so far. It's the only one that has moved me emotionally

4. In Paragon City, which stores do you like best? Pandora's Box. The design is great, and the shopkeepers are pretty cool !

5. In the Rogue Isles, which Patron do you like best? Well, I've only ran with two (Scirocco and GW) and of the two, Scirocco seems the most "rounded out." (QFT to Grey !)

But it's a wrong kind of reclaiming! Hamidon tore Woodsman apart and used his power to bolster his own, just to absolutely WRECK that place! People still lived and worked there at the time, and Hamidon murdered countless men, women, children and pets!

Now, Crey's doing the one good thing they've done in a long time as they try to fight back the invasive vegetation. None of those plants or geological anomalies are normal, they're all hideously twisted versions of what should have been (and possible spawning points for more of the Devouring Earth).

Eden scares me.

Eden scares me.
I wasn't concerned with the story of the zones when I chose them. I chose these zones because they are both visually appealing to me and soothing. The most nature-filled zones, to me.

Eden, in my mind, is what happens to earth when humans no longer infest it. I LOVE Eden!
