Ten Things I'd like to see before 2012

I'll do this in a simple list, I think!

1. More Costume Pieces. Sexy Jay is, of course, already handling this.
2. Tops with Skin Sleek. Seems an odd suggestion, but I find it a bit distracting to have shiny legs and a matte top, sometimes...
3. More "Super" powers. Guns, Swords, Shields, and Kicking people are all well and good, but I'd like some propless powers. (Light blast, Acid spitting, dark and electric control)
4. More Power Pools. (Throwing was recently suggested. I'd also love to see a few "Cross-Class" power pools like a micro-powerset (Fire Blast 4-tier power pool and the like)
5. More Ancillary and Patron Power Pools. (Mostly more Patrons, I'd love to have the heroside iconics become patrons as well as some of the other villaingroups)
6. Self-Flagged Open World PvP for Vigilantes and Rogues. (Fight other Flagged Heroes or Villains. Maintained through the options menu, probably. Standard: Off)
7. Villains gaining reputation with various villaingroups (Freakshow/Malta/Hellions) as a method of gaining temporary powers which call allies into a fight.
8. Heroes being given the option of doing something similar with Legacy chain, Longbow, PPD, and others.
9. World Peace (Might as well ask for it, right?)
10. Praetoria to have brand new 1-50 content rather than just 1-20 as some have speculated.

Why by 2012? Easy! We're all going to die in 2012 except for John Cusack, his family, and a mischievous and incredibly lucky dog.

*dumps feathers on Rachel*

Hmmm. List.
1. More EATs. With actual story, no dropping the ball like VEATs post-20ish. (Both sides at once - no reason to restrict coralax or BotBS.) Unlock via task/strike forces, finishing an area's main storyline, etc.
2. Arcs and a TF in DA.
3. New villainside starting area. Yes, we're getting Praetoria. New villainside starting area (and more, really. Something not done in Trash Dump Deco.)
4. Greatly improved base editor with "holding areas" for things when you want to replace rooms, deleting the old one, etc. and ... well, more.
5. Patrols that affect surrounding mobs (either alerting as they run past on fire, or relaxing them (-per, -def, etc.) for a few seconds if they're let past.)
6. SG-related stuff in the mission computer.
7. An Intangibility IO set. For grins.

All that comes to mind right offhand.

See my Guides and Tutorials

With some of the things lists here I'd like...

1. New 50 zone for heroes and villains respectively, not a coop zone, not a hazard, but a second level 50 city zone like Peregrine and Granville.

2. New zones in different places across the world, time travel being involved is acceptable, for examples: Wild West zone, Medieval Persia, Japan (Any time period), Polynesia, Roananpur, Thailand, Rapture, etc. etc.

3. Base editor updates/upgrades.

4. Optional elemental attributing to lethal only weapon power sets. (I.E. the ability to have lightning swords, poison claws, etc. etc.)

5. New EATs, polearms, proliferations, and assualt sets (such as radiation and dark assualt).

6. Animation customizations options

7. And you know, this is actually all I can think of.

Really, mine are less revolutionary and more evolutionary.

1. Wraparound cloaks. I know the tech is wonky (just play with the High Collar cape and you'll see why), but it's really getting to be about time.

2. Glowing colours. Like those on Positron, like the Toxic and Fire tarantulas, like that Going Rogue pic Jay mocked us over, like Buzz Lightyear... Just let us make our colours glow in the dark and be normal in the light.

3. Fish bowl helmets. Seriously, just a glass bubble around the head with hair limited to short hairstyles. Why is this such low priority?

4. Weapon epics for all ATs, even the ones that don't have the specific weapon. Guns for Scrapers, bows for Brutes, swords for Blasters, etc.

5. Open-air compound base editor to the spirit of your typical C&C RTS, in addition to our retread of Dungeon Keeper.

1. Staffs (high tech staffs with stances and attack animations.)

2. New pistols (more futuristic and big f**** gunz)

3. Ability to make a fat toon and more normal body types (smooth works for my 16 year old dp toon, but he still looks fit which works cause he is a true hero but what about an average Joe and 8 year old toons?)

4. Backpacks & propellers

5. More casual clothing, hooded shirts, shorts, more shoes etc. etc

6. Equipment packs (textures like knives, guns that can be put on legs,arms and other parts of the body just for detail.)

7. Grenades, molotov coctails, gas grenades and other ways to make a natural born toon that doesn't have any super powers.

8. Ability to have 2 different textures over a body piece (stripes and arm stars on the chest piece for example. This would allow you to make a more complex better looking suit)

9. Animated faces and hands

10. Make chest and arms into different body pieces!!!

11. Hoverboards, mountain bikes, roller blades & skateboards for travel

12. Wall climbing

13. Real crouch stance and animal running/leaping on all four which can be used for example by gimmick characters that have monster legs.

14. Monster legs with correct anatomy (as u all know those we have today are entirely incorrect designed)

15. Afro that actually look like afro o.O (not the 70s stereotypically afros that exist in the game today)

16. Miniguns, floor mountable energy shields

17. Overall more gimmick stuf like stances, catchprases that could be programmed to use when you attack etc. without spamming in the local chat window, gadgets etc. etc would add a lot to the games feel IMO

18. Get rid of female toons weird normal stance and make it possible to make a extremely muscular female toon. (The anorectic body shapes doesn't fit that well for a super strength woman and though you can use some sliders for shoulders and physics, you still can't make a muscle builder female toon)

Spiderman's Mysterio?

My list:

1. Revert pvp to its good state
2. New powersets (time manipulation would be nice)
3. New high end TFs
4. Merge the markets
5. Improve the baraccuda sf - bigger caves, and rethink the MM temp, which is very much just an artificial attempt to make MMs more attractive
6. Account wide storage
7. Fix the pvp IO drop method issues
8. Replace all 'XP debt protection' bonuses with something useful (debt means nothing nowadays)
9. Buff dual pistols, electrical blast, fire armor, some other sets I'm forgetting
10. Reduce the animation time of energy transfer slightly (somewhere inbetween where it is now and what it used to be)

1-10 Batman 3

More than 36 character slots per server

Not necessary ten but some.

1- new textures for old city
2- grass effect
3- new sky
4- new goog high level TF
5- thats all

1. Server list merge of the US and EU server lists. So we could all play together as one big community on the thus 15 servers.
2. More emotes (singing would be good)
3. Stances is good so a few more.
4. More travel pool powers.
5. Power/epic/patron pool customization.
6. More costume pieces, but not only that, new places to place costum pieces.
7. New Base items for the base builders. (There is already a ton of items ingame that is not put into the base builder)
8. More Zones to go to. Perhaps even one zone that will be built by the players. (To clarify) Players make the decision on what to build from a set of choices. Defense buildings, Military buildings, colonization buildings, housing etc... Sort of like Horizon (I think that was the game). This will ofc clash with either a computer opponent or the traditional Hero/villain (Blue/Red side) bit. So yes, I guess it could turn into a new pvp zone (but with a proper goal).
9. More fun pvp scenarios (Ok *smack on fingers for mentioning it* But I did find Zombie apocalypse on Co as quite fun, something along those lines)
10. More powersets.

Dude! The world is not ending in 2012! Here is how it will REALLY go down:

In 2012, humanity will split into two factions: The Idiots and the People with an Ounce of Intelligence (POI for short) The Idiots believe that the world is coming to an end and thus they will all commit suicide. However, the POI will NOT commit suicide and so it will fall on their shoulders to rebuild the human race.


My only question is, which side are YOU on?

Anyway, I guess I'm ranting again. [/2012 doomsday rant]


I want Metal Armor/Metal Melee!

I guess I could add a few.

(Sorry if I repeat some already mentioned)

1. More longish-hair options for both genders
2. More weapon models (you can never have too many)
3. Elemental weapons (I hear they would have to be created separately, like the Nictus Broadsword......)
4. The Coming Storm
5. Seeing a future where the world wasn't destroyed
6. Some of the costume pieces from Champions Online..... (I'll admit, I wish some of their patterns and pieces were available to us.)

1. Complete power and costume proliferation.
