And also, Super Strength? So his Energy Melee attacks will be removed for Super Strength instead? |
Origin: Mercenary Super-powered Soldier
Why would I ever pick Tech or Natural ever again when I can choose an Origin like that?! I bet the Origin power is even dual pistols!

That Armor is exactly what ive been wanting ever since ive been playing. I hope and pray that the Armor is PC and the glow is color changeable...(about to passout from the excitement!) I have a concept already in mind for that piece.
It looks as if it has wrist gauntlets also!!
Prometheus: ... so what I told you was true, from a certain point of view.
Me: From a certain point of view?
Prometheus: You're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on your point of view.
Me: You're right about that. Power Blast is very pretty from a certain point of view. But that point of view is not head-on. <Kaboom> - Arcanaville.

Come on already give players some thing more, whats next? A screen shot of a wall with some bricks? Seriously stringing out GR information seems pretty pointless. |

1. Moving mohawk/beard: I don't see it at all. Don't set yourself up for disappointment.|

3. Tron lights = cool. But... um..... seems our costumers lately have had a fascination with decorating the crotch and buttocks area.
4. This seems to be the in-game model for the released concept art of a resistance fighter. It might very well be Calvin Scott. It looks *a lot* better than the concept art did (sorry, conceptual artist!).
5. The Abraham Lincoln beard is called a chin strap.

Eh, I meant nothing since the end of Hero Con, which was 3 months ago, when I found all that out firsthand. You probably knew that, though. :P

It could be a zone map - say, a Resistance base somewhere under the city |

By the way, didn't another recent superhero game have glowing costume parts?

The Preatorian Clockwork pieces will be tied to a defeat badge (possibly defeat 100 Preatorian Clockwork) or a Task Force completion badge. I doubt they'd be unlocked for joining the Loyalists, since they would only fit tech-based characters. The Resistance pieces will be unlocked by going through an "initiation" arc for the Resistance. Another costume set (probably the Preatorian Police) will be unlocked by completing an "initiation" arc for the Loyalists. It's just a theory, but it's plausible. |

ok that was so cool i could visualize my char walking along in there as his footsteps echoed good job getting me more pumped lol.

Awsome !!!!!!!!
CoX for life !!
New Mohawk?
New Facial Hair?
Is that a Scabbard/Weapon on his back? (oh, it's just a shoulder-piece)
Like the glowie armor... it's a start on a recent request I had; expand! Expand!
New AE maps... I hope.
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"
*Arc #95278-Gathering the Four Winds -3 step arc; challenging - 5 Ratings/3 Stars (still working out the kinks)
*Arc #177826-Lights, Camera, Scream! - 3 step arc, camp horror; try out in 1st person POV - 35 Ratings/4 Stars
Gave the Hero-Con vids a second look and they mentioned Career Paths for Praetoria; either the Praetorian Police or the Resistance. Is this similar to Hero/Villain? Are these CPs lost once you enter Primal Earth? Any mention of other CPs (if not the same as Hero/Villain)?

Just need to get a new PC so that I can take advantage of GR's new graphics (as well as other games :P).
