Dear Santa.. Your COH Christmas list
Dear Santa,
Please give me recipes for the costumes I unlock doing various tasks about Paragon. The Roman pieces, and Vanguard especially! My tech blaster doesn't need the Roman armor, but he would gladly give them to my poor lvl 25 scrapper.
Also, not to be greedy, but please halve form-shifting times for all Kheldians.
Everything else is great!
Thanks,
Gehnen
Dear Santa,
I know I'm in a very very small minority. But this gift isn't just for me, coz I use it for other people. Please, if you could, ask the Paragon Studios team to make sure that the demorecord feature stays in future issues of COH? And even maybe improve on it? I know it's a lot to ask, but if they're making better commercials now, maybe the Creative Services team could expand on it? Please? Thanks!

EDIT: PS... the guy below me has a really good idea, too. Could you make that happen as well? That's worth at least a tray of brownies on its own.

Dear Santa,
Next year please have the dev team come out with a Holiday Booster Pack with Christmas/Winter themed costume items, emotes and perhaps powers. Have half the proceeds go to Toys for Tots or some other national charity that provides toys for underpriveleged children.
We here at City of Heroes have what I consider the best on line community of any MMORPG out there. Our players have more heart. Our development team listens and responds. The general public should know about this.
This is a game of Heroes. Maybe it's time WE emulate the characters we play on line.
Sincerely,

Dear Kris,
I CAN call you Kris right?
I was very very good this year.
And, at the same time, very very evil. You could say I was very good at evil.
What I'd like for Christmas (and never mind that Jupiter-sized Annihilation Cannon pointed at the North Pole) are:
One of these.
And maybe a couple of these.
And, just for grins, get me a copy of Acronis and maybe an upgrade for VMWare.
Oh wait. I just looked at my bank statement. You already got them for me.
Thanks! Maybe I'll let you live until next year after all!
Dear Father Christmas,
I've done my best to be good this year. My heroes have saved lots of people and most of my villains have done some saving by being rogues. So I think you can call me mostly good. So I only have one thing to ask of you.
Our game has the best community I've ever seen in an MMO and since the forums came together, I have loved being able to discuss life, films and the game with our fellow players from around the world. But above all, what I really want is to be able to team with them at last. For the EU and NA servers to be brought into one list, no more segregation, no more jealousy, just one big, happy family of heroes and villains from around the globe. Dear Santa, please make our divided community one at last.
Yours sincerely,
Dante (aged 35 and two months)
P.S. You might consider listening to that Steelclaw guy as well. He's got smarts.

Dear Hannukah Harry,
Please help the Devs to create new Booster Packs with NPC Costume pieces,and also,read Steelclaw post.
Ah,and put some sense on the Brazilian retail store for COX.

Dear Santa,
I've been a good boy this year, and despite difficulties cropping up, I've remained goodwilled and do my best to help people out. What I'd like for Christmas this year is power pool customisation, epic pool colourisation, more epic pools to fit new power themes, and power colouring in AE; which is more than it sounded in my head.
Storm,
Aged eighteen and eleven months.
However, for next year, this is beautiful:

The devs pitched in too, with donations of items that were auctioned off a week ago, including some really cool collector's items such as autographed promo photos, a pewter City of Villains flask, statues, copies of Going Rogue autographed by the dev team, etc. Other companies pitched in too, such as ThinkGeek, TFAW,com, Mercedes Lackey, and several players and CoH fan Internet stations.
I highly encourage anyone that is in the giving spirit to drop by the Real World Hero site (realworldhero.com) and chip in. Even if only a buck or two, seriously, it makes a huge difference when everyone does it. I'm really hoping it tips the $10,000 mark again this year!

Incidentally, most people here probably already know this, but just for the sake of propagating the info, this is already happening. The Wentworths, and in-game supergroup of fine, upstanding pillars of society, have set up for the second year now a charity campaign to encourage players to donate to some charities. Last year, they raised over $10,000 for Donate Games, Child's Play, and Operation Gratitude. This year, they've added Heifer International to the charities, and they're pretty durn close to $10,000 again. Hopefully this final week of the drive will push it over.

Dear Santy Clawz:
I hope that you're doin' well this holiday season (and all year-round).
Once again, I have been a *very* good kitty, even though my extradimensional counterpart, Praetorikatt, keeps trying to lure me to the Dark Side with promises of squeaky toys!
I have left some special treats for you when you come to visit me again in the Katt Kave -- Hot Cocoa (with those mini-marshmallows that you like so much), a large batch of Poutine, Oatmeal Raisin & Kibble Cookies, and a crateful of suntan lotion (with cocoa butter and aloe) for the post-holiday season.
Since the Furless grown-ups are making a list, I thought I'd do the same.
Pleez, I kan haz:
1. BABsy back amongst his throng of adoring fans. He was the bestest!
2. Posi put into indefinite time-out for repeatedly using Power Suppression on me at the City Birthday Party this past April.
3. Opposable thumbs.
4. Steelclaw's suggestion come to fruition.
5. Extra enhancer slots for the Kheldy powers.
6. Color customization for Kheldy powers, Power Pools, and Ancillary Powers.
7. Dressable Cat and Kitten models for player characters, as well as the ability to shrink player characters down to about 1' tall.
8. More ways to earn extra Salvage and Recipe slots in-game.
9. A most joyous holiday season for all of the nommy peeps at Paragon Studios!
Thanks, Santy!
Heartfelt Holiday Huggles!
Amy the Amerikatt!

3. Opposable thumbs.
[/QUOTE]
wait, if you are suggesting it, why do you want people opposing it?
Dear SuperSanta, as my name can attest, I've been the perfect hero this year. So, I would love the following:
1) Most of all, Steelclaw's idea to come to fruition. And give him a yellow title for thinking of the children!
2) If not full power pool customization, the ability to ditch hasten's effects.
3) That VIP DVD collector's pack to come back for download. I want that thing like nobody's business.
4) Water control/water blast. A much needed missing component of the elements.
1. The rare and very rare slots opened up on the Alpha... My main now has close to 90 shards and over 15 components after crafting both the Cardiac Core and Cardiace Radial Boost and I need something to do with all that stuff.

Agreed, agreed, and agreed. And signed. And agreed. And signed again, just in case. And signed in different colored ink. And agreed one more time. This is a VERY good idea.

Deer Santa,
How are you? I have been very good this year. Please can I have Focus and Shockwave instead of Poison Dart and Dart Burst? All the other people with claws make fun of me when I can't knock mean people over.
Love,
Lashclaw
[pink sparkly crayon OFF]
Seriously though, hmm. More wall styles and placeables for base building would be awesome. Pool tables like in the D and some of the bar/casino maps! Also, what Steelclaw said.
Dear Santa,
First of all, I'm sorry for being late. But perhaps this can still come true for an aspiring... doer of things? So first on the things I wish is Steelclaw's ideas. They're awesome and for the children. Secondly, a villain strike force to finally close to 30-35 gap that's been glaring at us from the moment CoV went live. Thirdly... or you know, perhaps I should reorder them. Firstly is this new thing, proliferate Illusion Control to Dominators. Secondly is that children stuff, yes, stuff for the children is good. And thirdly... you know what, it's not working out. Firstly is Illusion Control to Dominators, that's important. Secondly though, I've moved up that level 30-35 Strike Force request, and thirdly all that children stuff, I mean, they are delicious when cooked well.
Dear Santa,
Pet AI - can haz?

I think you get the general idea. With 2 days left before the holiday it's time to draft those wish lists and get them Santa (War Witch) and all his (err her) busy elves (the rest of the Dev team.. DUH).

Dear Santa,
I've tried to be a really good girl this year and even my Villains have all gone Rogue and done SOME good deeds. What I'd really, really, really like this year is:
1. The rare and very rare slots opened up on the Alpha... My main now has close to 90 shards and over 15 components after crafting both the Cardiac Core and Cardiace Radial Boost and I need something to do with all that stuff.
2. New Task Forces to run at 50 level.. I have done so many ITF, LGTF. KTF, STF, LRSF and BSFs I am starting to get them confused.... We beat up Lord Recluse and his lieutenants on the Kahn TF right?
3. I recently finally got to do a Cathedral of Pain Trial and it was lots of fun Santa but can't we please find a way to get INF, XP and Prestige for all those Soldiers of Rularuu we have to defeat to get at the Aspect of Rularuu. This one isn't mandatory Santa since the End Bonus is HUGE but it would be a nice treat... maybe it could be a stocking stuffer.
4. Some new Tip missions for Rogues and Vigilantes. I sort of assumed when I heard there were new tip missions it was for all types not just Heroes and Villains. I am still doing the same tips I got pre Issue 19. On a side note Santa, and please don't take this the wrong way since the new mission in Pocket D against Lady Winter more than covers things, but why no Winter tip mission like we got at Halloween? Maybe next year?
As always I will leave you a nice plate of Cookies and some milk near the fireplace at base and I am making sure to turn off the defense systems so we don't have a repeat of that unfortunate incident that occurred last year. I hope the check I mailed covered the repair costs to your suit and that the laser didn't cause any serious damage to your.. well your.. Oh geez I sure hope you don't still need that inflatable donut to sit on anymore!
MERRY CHISTMAS TO ALL
