Have an idea for the game that's been gnawing at you for years? Not sure if it's a viable one? Join the Development Team for what promises to be a lively discussion around your City of Heroes wish list!

Who is going to Hero Con and would like to represent Champion as a whole?

Post your "Wouldn't It Be Great If..." idea here!
Wouldnt it be great if they stopped screwing everything they put into the game? Not going to go into to much of specifics, but I, as well as many others are just tired of the nerfs etc etc.
Lemme ask this.

At some point werent Blasters waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Stalkers waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Controllers waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Dominators waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Scrappers waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Widows waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Forts waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Tankers waaaaay over powered?
At some point werent Defenders waaaaay over powered?

Hmmmmm so what im thinking here is if they would have left everything alone.... Then we would have a game about actual SUPER HEROES and SUPER VILLIANS.

Shocking.

They take away AE, after giving it and FULLY KNOWING what it was capable of producing. Yet they have done nothing about purple Io's that sell for 250-500million each.

Shocking.

They have cut the effectiveness of farming down to the most minimal impact possible. thus cutting the influence earning potential for the purple io's mentioned earlier, But still did nothing to effect market values.

Shocking.

Soooooo I guess bottom line is this.....

Wouldnt it be great if the DEVS, mods, owners, stock holders, or whoever it may be, just took the time to LISTEN to some of the people with the suggestions.... and not just the ones suggesting PINK IMPS

Last time I checked, it's still a game about super heroes and super villains. Time to get over the past, cause it's not coming back.

When did AE ever get taken away? It's always been working since they put it in.....oh wait, you mean AE FARMING. Again...get over it.

It's not the devs that affect (not effect) market values on anything. Players set the value based on what they're willing to spend, or what they're willing to part with to sell it. There's nothing in the rules or EULA that says you are entitled to have a fully purple IO'd character as soon as you hit 50, or anytime thereafter. You want it, work for it. It doesn't take that long if you know what you're doing.

Make some suggestions that are worth listening to, and they might listen. Whining is not making suggestions.

You should try playing my toons. They're ******* super.

90+% of purples could be had in the last 7 days for less than 75M a piece.

Numbers. The more you know, the less dumb you look.

By moving farmers back out into real content, they've dropped the prices of purples, uncommon salvage, and rare pool A drops in less than a month by a range of 50 to 75%.

I'm gonna petition PBS to start an Adding Rainbow program just for you.

Wouldn't it be great if the whiners, bitchers, moaners, PLers, or whoever it may be just took the time to LISTEN to some of the people with basic mathematical comprehension...oh, and if they noticed that the vast majority of the playerbase called for an end to the AE farming and for customizable power colors to be added? (Question mark added for dramatic effect since it's a ******* question.)

Don't take it personally if you think I was mean to you. I'm an ******* to everyone.

It's a penguin thing. Pingu FTW.

Ping is a ******* genious. <3

I will say in response to Buds post there is one tiny thing I agree with. If the Devs left the AT's super powerful and equally overly powerful this would feel a little more like a superhero game. Not that I am complaining about how it is, but I would love to be able to pick up a subway car and throw it. Also to be on the receiving end of a big *** chevy being thrown at my hero toon and have it just bounce off their chest would be pretty cool too. :-)

Maybe just throw a big game engine at ... hmmm, that sounds more geeky than superheroiey.

And when were defenders overpowered, because I missed that part of the game.

in Aion the Gladiator gets an ability where He/She shoves their polearm into a foe, and begins beating down others with that body still stuck to the weapon. Good stuff!

Wouldn't it be great if the game devs have a Hero Con over here in Florida!

Wouldn't it be great if there were PIRATE MASTERMINDS.

Wouldn't it be great if bases had skylights?

Wouldn't it be great if there was a map zone where we could add hedgerows, castle doors, floating keys and a yellow sword, and three colored dragons (yellow green and red) so we could build our own Adventure MA? Or would Atari sue?

This is too easy.

Wouldn't it be great if street zones felt more interactive? If you could read a poster and it be up-to-date? If there were street items that you could throw (steal at least this from C.O. - they stole enough from CoH)? Items that GMs could crush and Rikti destroy with their bombs and invasions. Perhaps something to defend from the Zombie invasion when it comes? Maybe make it an item that provides a small faction(red/blue)-based buff, to offer incentive to defend it (a bit like the relics in DAoC)? Perhaps have something like that in the PvP zone so that fighting villains (or heroes) wasn't just about trying to find the invisible needle in a haystack (you know, the one that stabs you in the back)?

Oh, you and your pirate masterminds would love that, would you not? After all, heroes burst through your skylights all the time. That is more-or-less why we keep encouraging villains to use skylights in construction of their lairs.

Quote:
Villain: Hah hah, hapless fool, I have escaped your feeble grasp again!
Hero: Oh yeah? Well...your lair sucks. It doesn't have any ambiance at all. Add a skylight or something.
Villain (to himself): You know...

One week later...


Hero (crashing through skylight): Surprise!
Villain: Damn it!

Wouldn't it be great if electric pets lasted longer than the blinking of an eye? But then, I don't understand why ANY pets unsummon after a period of time.

You would still have to pay to participate and you can only log into the test server over that week/weekend if you bought a Hero-con ticket.
Gift bags of stuff could be sent to participants as part of the "ticket" price - and/or just added directly to accounts.
There would be limited "tickets" based on the load that the test server can handle - I can guarantee that will be more people than are at Hero-Con!
All panels could be posted on youtube and characters could go to certain places in the City/Test server to ask questions on discussion panels (in advance obviously).

It wouldn't necessarily eliminate the live event. It would allow may more people to pay money to attend the convent....I mean participate in the convention!

Obviously, there are other things that could go on involving the DEVs and special events on the Test Server during the convention time.
Yeah, and probably that would be too many people for the DEVs to be able to handle at one time at any rate....

...but still....even so....

It's still there.

Ultra-rares are ultra-rare.
You don't "have to have them" in order to play the game.
You only "have to have them" to be L337.

Unless you haven't heard, the Freakshow are L337.

If you don't want to pay for them, then don't complain about them.
If you want them, then start earning the influence to get them.

I get purples dropping on higher level missions (what I consider to be) quite often and I DO NOT farm.

Quote:

I'm glad

Quote:

You know if you run normal missions and complete them, you might actually get some purple drops.
Like I said, when I'm running characters in that range (which I only do rarely), I quite often get a purple drops on every couple of missions.

The DEVs listen to the posters in the forums all the time.

I certainly hope your post was sarcastic.

I think you're missing the point about what a con is supposed to be about. If the whole thing is still in the game (test server or live), what's the point of even doing it? Cons bring nerds and geeks of all shapes and sizes out into the real world for a few days so they can mingle with each other and experience live interaction, and pay way too much for an autograph from someone whose still semi-famous for something they did ten years ago. It's also a chance for the game devs to put names to faces they hear about from the forums so when they complete their evil plans to screw PvPers and Villains completely, they can properly imagine those players crying in their sleep.

....I had given Mrs. Kay more than 1 days warning that we are going to attend so that she could (and I directly quote) "had more time to put together my Frankenhooker costume".

Also, it will be nice if I can see some hot Pingu furries action. Rawr.

Mrs Kay as frankenhooker = YaY

Pingu furries = <shudder> and that's the bad type of shudder.
