Underwater Zone

I have heard a lot on people in-game wanting a water zone.

Maybe not even a new zone. We have zones with lots of space.

Independence Port for example. Extend the map down below the ocean and make a water zone. Give people the option of running Arcs to access a Water Mask or Water Tank to be able to stay under water.

New Baddies, New Missions. Crashed Tankers. Endless Options.

Thats cool. Was just thinking of a way to activate some ignored zones. And that zone is so big. its just rediculous.

This thread might be of use to you. This post in particular should get us to roughly where we were last time.

I'd like to see both an underwater zone and water-themed powers. I know it's been mentioned a thousand times already, but the fact is these are common elements in the world of comics and it would be nice to see a superhero themed MMO recognize that.

How about instead of an underwater zone where you're literally in the water, perhaps just underwater bases and bubble type zones. It would still be cool to be hundreds of feet under the water and perhaps see some nice scenery or even a few fish swimming around.

Something like this would also not require the animation issues discussed.

That's something I think we all pretty much agreed on was a good thing back in that thread. BABs hasn't spoken on the subject, but I don't see a technical problem with it. There's just the workload involved in actually making these maps, but I feel this would be really cool nevertheless.

I must admit I am a bit confused about that "Never will be because cant do" post. Doesnt underwater work quite fine in that one Midnighters cave map?

edit: Ah, I see. Powers. Well that makes sense.
Also I never quite figured out how one would explain or decide who can and who cant breathe underwater or in space in a super hero genre game...

You mean the bug (now it's a feature!) where the 'swim floor' was accidentally set a few Z-levels below the water's surface? Notice how you can't swim up and down in that area; it acts just like normal water that just happens to be 'below' the normal water surface?

Hellooooo . . . Here he is being given lunch orders for the real super heroes.






Aquaman, Justice League sushi chef.

I was referring to the DCAU Justice League......

Poor Aquaman. As badass at the DCAU made him seem, people can only remember the lame Super Friends version.

Sorry but I can't resist teasing you a little more.


Yeah he's a bad*** alright. He breathes underwater and talks to fish. Ya know who he reminds me of?







The resemblance is chilling . . .



Just kidding.

Edit: Fixed pic.
