Underwater swimming!
It's late and I'm in the mood to burst some bubbles.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

I thought a saw a picture about this a couple of months ago, but I didn't hear much about it. Which map/mission can you swim underwater?
It's a random cimeroran map. A dead end room with a cross-shaped walkway, and four 'pockets' of water. The two closest to the entrance you can't quite swim in, but the far two, you can swim under the walkway that 'divides' them.
Back when this was first discovered in I-12, apparently pool parties became quite popular in Cimerora.

Also, there's a spot on the Grandville beaches that allows you to swim in it. Random little pool with a Coralax using a clipboard in it.

Swimming sections in video games are by their very nature awful, if only because it differs too much from the normal gameplay and lacks the polish of the rest of a game.
Let's not add underwater gameplay to CoX.

Some how I think if Gary Anderson can pull off underwater SuperMarionation in Stingray ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E06cNv55jTs ) then I think it can be done well in a video game if someone even takes a little bit of time and effort.
I agree it may not be worth the returns to do in in CoH, especially if my underwater Controller can't summon his fishy friends.
Guess I'll have to stick with my aquatic tanker, scrapper Lake Creatures, and scrapper or peacebringer Deep Ones.
*sigh*
Of course, none of them will apparently get to do too much swimming underwater in CoH.
And I guess the Deep Ones will have to be content with working to summon Lusca - not so fishy, but definitely aquatic!
Ah, thought it was something "big"... thanks for the info tho'.

I wouldnt mind having Mako's PPP on hero-side though and a few more placed to swim under water.

I find BAB's judgement of Aquaman to be appallingly trendy and ignorant.

Seriously! I mean, if 2/3 of the Earth's surface is covered by water, and humans aren't, for the most part, in it, Aquaman may very well be THE most important superhero EVAH.
I always called Aquaman when playing Justice League on the playground. Hard to imitate his antics while not submerged but still, he was da JL bomba.
I thought the original Ecco :: The Dolphin had cool swimming in it, but I guess that was all swimming.

Somehow, given BaB's remarks and what I've heard about the difficulty of making water-based powers, it seems to me that swimming/water-based powersets and locales would be best served with a full-on expansion dedicated to that.
... which would take years and ultimately look stupid.
But hey, the shader-enabled water looks cool, so anything's possible!
Wow, this is awesome - i just discovered entirely by accident that in some of the Cimerora cave maps you can actually swim under water!
Just had to share that!
Here's to hoping there will be more of that!
