Leg Accessories

I just want to say I love this thread. ResidentBaka needs his own global channel in game so I read his stream of consciousness postings while on a Task Force.

Last time I tried to stream things directly from my brain I ended up in the hospital and needed a lot of different transfusions.





I was in a mission a little while ago and I heard a Longbow Eagle say to a Mu Guardian, "Stop floating and fight like a man!"

Respecs as they currently stand make no sense and fill me with rage. I'm talking about respec trials here.

"So Above Average Man, tell us about your trip into the Terra Volta Reactor."

"Well it was full of Rikti, but we beat them all up, so, yeah."

"And do you think the radiation has had any strange effects on your powers?"

"Oh, you know come to think of it, I started to feel a bit weird when I was talking to my friend Jack Wolfe the other day. We were having this conversation about powersets and slotting when I got really dizzy. Later on, I was taking down some Devouring Earth and like... Well I use a gun to fight, so I realized that my flamethrower wasn't working properly. But that's okay because now I can fire shotgun shells and grenades!"

"...So your gun mutated?"

"Yeah. Weird, huh? Oh, and I forgot how to be intimidating, but I did suddenly know how to use a high tech medical device. Weird city, huh?"


Yeah so anyway I think respecs should allow us to totally repick our powersets and not just rearrange powers.

Why stop there?

Let us change ATs with Respecs!

I'll buy that. Then again it might hurt alting... Then again it would probably be too much of a hassle to constantly change one's AT, so it would be perfect for people like me who want to occasionally play an AT that they can't stand to level. Or maybe OH HELL I DUNNO I'M THINKING ABOUT IT TOO MUCH



So let's think about something else. IMAGINE IF YOU WILL, City of Heroes if Jack Emmert was still in charge.

Imagine looking for a group because that -3 mission full of Hellions is way too much for you to solo. You're a Scrapper, not Statesman.

For years you've asked for Shield Defense, and finally the dev team has.... not given it to you. Because it's impossible with the current technology. The year is 2043.

Several buffs are announced for.... Statesman. Players can go piss up a tree.

Several new costume pieces have been announced for players who prepurchased Star Trek Online.

What do you want to solo things for? That's not fun. I know fun. I make video games. You don't need to solo things to have fun. Shut up and join a team. NO I'LL KICK YOUR ***.

A set of alternate animations has been scrapped as it was revealed that players already have access to a high number of perfectly good animations already.

It turns out that enhancements actually allowed players to become stronger than intended. Enhancements have been removed.

Scrappers have been removed.

Blasters have had their range reduced as it was proving to be an unfair advantage against melee-centric mobs.

All villain groups now have access to Mask of Vitiation and also now it causes your character to just straight up drop dead.

Someone commented on how capes were pretty neat looking, so we've adjusted them accordingly. By adjusted I mean removed.

The population of the Freedom server exceeded expected parameters. All players on the Freedom server have been banned.

You forgot to mention that, in this scenario, the Rikti received a buff because heroes were still able to defeat them at all.

Patch Notes: The Rikti invasion failed to completely eradicate Paragon City. This has been corrected.





Also I think the game needs a "flourish" emote for pistols users so we can just stand around twirling our pistols forever.

Over time I've come to learn many universal truths. Don't sleep in the subway, don't get involved in a land war in Asia, and don't try to save Black Panther 952 with a full team.


edit:

Yesterday I was permanently banned from Ouroboros for leaving my portal in the middle of a highway.




By the way anyone want to be the new Pilgrim?

[mumbling] one... two... three... plus if they all become bosses... fifteen... sixteen... and then add the tohit bonus...

We can totally take 'em!

Frostfire sucks so much he can lose a fistfight to something that doesn't have arms.

HELLO EVERYONE welcome to Baka's pointless spculation hour my name is Baka and this is where I come to talk about stuff that's probably wrong.

Ooookay, so with this new I19 info we see Ouroboros having fallen from on high right into its own lake, however unlike a person, it doesn't get teleported back into the sky. Or maybe it did, so the whole thing just keeps smashing into the water over and over again and that's why it looks so ruined.

ANYWAY we can see from some screenshots that the Crystal Titan has deigned crashed Ouroboros a superior place to stand and look imposing.

Now, anyone who has ever participated in a redside Hami raid is used to the ol' zone entry popup that talks about the Hamidon ripping its way into our reality.

This begs the question "well what reality does he come from, then?" I don't know, but considering the Hamidon is just one big cell, I posit that it is a REALLY BIG reality.

Blueside we know that Hamidon is a scientist coincidentally ALSO named Hamidon, and it makes me wonder just what reality sees children being named Hamidon.

Nobody knows where Praetorian Hamidon came from, all we know is that he "showed up sooner than he did on Primal Earth because of nukes." So either Hamidon Pasalima of Praetoria got totally spooked and whipped up whatever crazy hippie tonic turned him into a giant cell way way way ahead of schedule, or this one also barged its way into someone else's reality to be a jerk.

Also we don't know what Praetorian Hamidon looks like, other than it has claws and tentacles.

But then again, that's probably a lie because Emperor Cole didn't want to go around saying he beat up a violent Jell-O mold.

ANYWAY my point is, and I do have one this time, is that...

Okay I'm wrong, I don't have a point.

NO WAIT I DO, I think Hamidon has something to do with the Coming Storm. Him, or whoever created him. The Red/Praetorian ones, anyway. They're also responsible for Shivans, so whoever it is has a serious thing for jelly and glowing crap.

So I guess the real question is, where does Hamidon come from? Who made him? Some kind of cosmic watchdog force that sends huge-*** microorganisms to give nature a fighting chance against industrial civilizations? Did Hamidon Pasalima accidentally stumble upon the method said watchdog force uses to make these giant, giant cells?

SPECULATE WITH ME because I'm tired of typing.

Apparently Praetorian Hammi has gone all Cthulu on us.

Oh, so this is where this thread went. Well, neato. No, I have nothing new to add just yet, except to say "Leg accessories and sashes"



Don't ask where this sash frenzy came from.

Sashes are more waist accessories and not so much leg.

Man baka you ramble on a lot in your posts.

Baka, tell me your global. NAO. I WILL global friend you, and you WILL give me all your crazy TF thoughts.

I am not joking! <.< >.>
