Adding new things to do with new mission maps sounds like a priority. Maybe some open missions? Multiple choice options on missions where your decision will vary the actual course of the mission? That sort of thing would be nice.

One of the biggest reasons I liked CoX is because they dont make me fight wolves and killer crocodiles in my lowbie lvls. I mean c'mon, fighting a rabbid dog?? That's like a slap in the face really.
(Wow! I can manipulate lightning, fire and the cosmos itself. Rabbid Dogs BEWARE!!)
I like your other suggestion though.

Jay is an egotist of the Nth degree who acts like he has entitlement syndrome.
No, I don't particularly like him, and, Yes, I think I could do a better job than him.
I'm waiting to see if they actually got any decent work out of him for GR. Some of it looks good enough to forgive a few more sins so far.

Hum... Coming to think of it, a muscle slider certainly would help on making a strongwoman. Agree that on She-Hulk type that would fit well enough. But when I said what I wanted I mentioned Giganta in Golden Era. Google it and check it out. :-)
Face customizing would be awesome too... But I guess that is way too difficult too. After all, how long did we had to wait for some new faces to come around?
More "back" stuff would be fun... Like weapons, backpacks, gas cylinders, thorns and stuff like thta. Capes only are kind of lame.
Someone said on another thread that the old missions should be revamped, with the new ones becoming the "live game" while the older ones could be placed at Ouroboros... I actually would enjoy that, as it would be fun to run Calvin Scott TF. Specially with him becoming a main NPC again on GR.

There's so many things I'd do, but I'll just add this idea since MM Pets have been mentioned.
It would be very nice to be able to substitute MM Pets for existing villain groups. For example, I have a MM that's supposedly an Ex-Nazi, and he uses Mercs. It would be thematic and not too much of a stretch to see him using 5th Columnists, or Council. As long as the general effect of the powers was similar, I see no reason not to do this (that is, they would still be mercs, but Council models would be used - you would be able to sub in other groups as appropriate...)

The one such system I've tried before was part of Guild Wars' Halloween event, the "Costume Brawl". I actually enjoyed myself, because despite the fact that I'm no good at PvP and have nothing resembling a PvP build, it didn't matter. The Costume Brawl in GW sets all players to level 20 (the level cap), with a specific costume based on your gender and primary profession, and a set of abilities and attribute distribution based on your primary profession (AT). The costume/ability/attribute combinations are based on characters in the storyline. For example, my female Elementalist became Cynn, one of the Henchmen you can pick up throughout the game.|

The mini-game is timed and when the time runs out, the side with the most points (acquired by killing the opposing team and, more lucratively, by achieving the objective) wins and gets rewards.
I actually think this is a good idea. It could be incorporated into the existing arena system, even. Objective based PVP would be very good in this game, I think, and maybe be interesting enough to draw some PVE players in. |
I didn't mind the PvP event, because everyone was truly equalized; there were no elite PvPers ganking newbies with builds built from farming for hours on end. Rather than a million different builds ranging from PvE newbie to PvP veteran, there were 10 different builds; one for each profession. I'm not experienced enough to tell you whether those 10 builds were balanced between each other, but it took any equipment advantages out of the whole thing.

Although we need an A.I fix, and soon...my protector bot and one of my drones have taken it that they are somehow scrappers...and are running up and honest to god punching enemies...I mean, the Arsonist is bad enough, but now my bots? Eesh.

This. Yes, definitely signed. I hate having to call my pets back over and over (and often, even usually, having them ignore me) becuase they're running uselessly into melee. Protector Bots are the worst, I can understand the Arsonist doing it to get closer for his fire breath, but the bots have no real melee ability. My Medic does it too.

The devs have granted your second request, most of the more recent TFs have been designed for level 50s and have focused on a small number of missions with special maps rather than the older TFs which use standard maps.|

For the other two while I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to this they do seem to be against the general design philosophy of the game. The general design philosophy of the devs seems to be that content should be available to as many players as possible and making content that is truly challenging for top end players would lock out a substantial portion of the player base.
While being able to use existing enemy models as MM pets would be nice I can see a problem with it from a teaming point of view. Your team mates could get very confused (especially melee types) if say a council pet MM or 3 was on a mission vs. council.
I think I would quit that team at the first chance I got.

I could see that being slightly confusing, but you can't attack friendly pets, so you wouldn't be targetting them. It's no more confusing than teaming with someone whose costume resembles a villain group.
