You do realise Mech that the reason he was asking 'why should we make this one' was to play Devils Advocate? And that he would personally like to massively improve the meagre selection we have atm?|

The Science booster recieved no temp power because it's 'temp power' was the ability to access the cosmetic surgeon and change gender, the mutant booster HAS a temp power so there's nothing additional. I'm not sure I understand what you mean, we aren't getting the mutant booster that me and many others expecting and judging from Davids comments, we probably wont be for a long while yet since they seem quite adverse to actually making any kind of anthropomorphic beast parts for whatever reason that is... |
The couple of random and idiotic haters in the thread should (hopefully) get ignored for the trolls they are and we can hope to see a pack we can use someday..

Hmm alright, I may have overreacted to David's comments but it felt, at the time, less like Devil's advocate and more like them coming up with reasons that a Beast superbooster wouldn't be made. Perhaps I misjudged what he was saying.
I'm with you there Mad_Cow, I hope there is an additional X factor that spices up the pack (for me anyway, if you want to buy it then I'm not going to complain that you got something you want, more power to you) but unfortunately it looks like what we've seen is what we're getting. It'd be a nice surprise if there was something extra though.
Looks like we're just going to have to hope and wait for a beast booster pack.
What I'd like to know is when are they going to finish off the current beast heads with a dog/fox/wolf tail, animated and all. I'm tired of my were-fox looking guy running around Tail-less.

Why not just quote the man's post!?

Okay, I change my mind. Now I have to buy the pack the day it releases *just* for that.|

In fact, how about THIS WEEK. Jay built a snazzy new animated tail, and though we were originally planning to release it later as part of a different set, the schedules been moved up, and youll now have access to it as a bonus in the soon-to-be-released Mutant Pack. Heres a pic, and (barring any technical glitches) you can start playing with the new tail on the Training Room on Friday, along with the other tails and weapon that missed the last build. Cheers, David  |
*crosses fingers it's after friday...better yet, ON friday*

I had my signature links set wrong, they should be fixed now so hopefully we will get some more attention here.
Here is an idea you can chose one power or more powers that use two different types of enhancements, to show that you are of a mixed origin.
A monstrous beast booster should give us a new "Beastial" body model to choose from. It doesn't have to be different from what we have... just use the standard male (or give us two and make male and female versions) we have and have its default animations for running, walking, jumping, etc. look more animalistic. Maybe use the coralax animations as a standard?
If we were to get a "Bestial/Monstrous" booster pack, I'd love to see a variant of [Ninja Run] included with it (yeah, you couldn't use both at the same time, oh shucks) that used a running/jumping animation like the hybrid form wolfmen in all the wolfman movies, kinda loping almost on all fours, but not completely... except when they jump and both arms go up above the head in that wolfman-pounce form
Dear NCsoft, if you go through with this shutdown you've guaranteed you'll not see another dime from me on any project you put out, ever.

Well guess I was wrong. There is talk about a separate pack to do anthropic characters though.

There was discussion on the "All things art: Super Booster" thread, but I can't remember page right now. There were questions like, if we were going to make a booster what animals should we do.|

Let's hope we hear some more from David in his threads some time soon. I think his last post scrolled off the dev digest.

This and all of Davids threads should be considered exempt from 'zombie rez' anyway; Dev threads for feedback should be stickied, imo.

Every time I've spoken to War Witch or others at the Comic Con, they've indicated that they are in fact going to do animal parts - but they won't say when, and they won't say any more than "we have heard you, and we are working."
Since I haven't seen hide nor hair of Jay in the threads (but I haven't looked much) recently, and he was essentially the one preventing this from happening in the first place, I'd be willing to bet that with Nakayama at the artistic helm he's going to have to swallow his pride or fear or phobia of them, and let the worker bees in his department actually DO the animal parts.
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!

That is very interesting to hear. So you think Nakayama is the culprit?

actually, you could have just linked this in a new thread and no one would have said anything. and drop the attitude. i wasn't trolling. and just so you know, both necroing a thread and calling someone a troll are both against the forum rules.

Notice something?...
Look at the head on the far right.
Plus look at the feat second from the right.
Just making a note, with our wishes for the most part coming true with the coming Beast Pack, I am retiring this thread with a big
SUCCESS!
The Science booster recieved no temp power because it's 'temp power' was the ability to access the cosmetic surgeon and change gender, the mutant booster HAS a temp power so there's nothing additional.
