I love the coloring of the powers and the alter animation. For the others and i know they are going to add more later like maybe fly. It got me to thinking about different visuals for some of the powers as costume peaces. Like a jet pack or a winged demon on your back for fly a device they teleports or a runic circle appears and you teleport. I have more Ideas but just getting started.


Some of my suggestions from posts i have done

A jet pack as a costume piece has been requested before. Also, I support this.

A winged demon for a flying animation? Like it flies and carries you in it's claws? I must say that it would certainly be different. I'm not sure how many people would want it, but it's interesting.

Your alternate Teleportation ideas are interesting. Perhaps something like the flight emotes could be used.
You could bind a command to play the alternate animations as your Teleport activates. Like "powexecname Teleport $$pow_animate Runic_Circle", firing off normal Teleport (with the same activation time and everything) and playing the chosen animation instead of the default.

Or they could just use what the already have and allow you to select a different animation for the power when customising it, like you can now for super strength and martial arts. I presume the same thing should work, unless there's something I'm missing.

As for customising pools in general, I believe they're next up on the list. As I heard it, the hurdle was that they're not available at character creation, unlike primary/secondary which are. But don't quote me on that.

I also hope for more animation options as you mention. But I'd also like to see more pools. As mentioned many times before, a swinging pool, maybe a gagets pool that includes a hovercraft travel power. Maybe a "chains" pool that has a motorcycle as a travelpower.

There should be the possibility here to add different animations for different types of powers. For example, a change in animation could have Energy Blasts (or fire or what have you) coming from the eyes of the character.

I forsee good things in this regard.

I'd love to see Power Customization for Power Pools.

I could imagine one animation for teleport would be something more like Nightcrawler, where he disappears into 'smoke' kinda stuff, rather than a flash of light.

Can we all agree that this would be nice?

Oh! And springy shoes for SuperJump! Big ol' Spring Boots!

I'm still waiting for Patron Pool customization, myself. I was fairly shocked to find it couldn't be altered.


The off-beat space pirate...Capt. Stormrider (50+3 Elec/Storm Science Corruptor)
The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

Virtue Forever.

LOL, yeah, I need to color fly to match my characters instead of being that dull blue. Not every super hero is meant to teleport in a flash of light, and even if they do, not all are going to be a blue/white flash either. What if I don't want Stealth/Invis/Grant Invis to be dust brown? :-/ How about epic pool customizing? Yeah, this definitely needs added, lol.

I think there is a power/weapon customization thread already stickied though.
