There are spirit sharks, which tells me that somewhere there are a bunch of dead sharks... or a bunch of undead zombie sharks.

The last time I was in the Ski Chalet, I saw a horribly mishappen thing in a toga that looked like a cross between a chimpanzee and a tarantula, and it was wearing a toga!

I shudder to think that the children of Paragon City might look anything like that... thing. If so, no wonder they aren't allowed outside; it would scare away all the mobs!

LOL...is there anyone out there who remembers when there were cows in the game? (Issue 1) They were mostly in Perez, and if you attacked them, all they'd do was MOOOO. They moved their heads (like grazing) and had big googly eyes. They were gone by issue 2 or three.

I played back then and I totally don't remember that. 10 Million influence to someone with pics!

Plus we could change the boob slider so that when I make an 8 year old girl, she doesn't have a B-Cup.

It's been 7 years. It's time Paragon made some babies.
What a coincidence. I just created a bouncing ten-year old SS/SR Brute named Feral Urchin today!

Let me take care of him. I know how to fix something like that.

Have you checked the city map recently? Look at all that space between the zones we can access!

That's the suburbs. Where things are safe for children and sane non-supers.

So the war walls are to keep the supers away from the little children?

To be perfectly serious, that's pretty much the case according to the lore. During the Rikti War, we used the War Walls to compartmentalize the fighting. Afterward, little has changed, except the enemies we're using them against. Instead of Rikti invaders, we're using them against Hellions through Devouring Earth and beyond.

The War Walls aren't meant to keep things out. They're meant to keep things in. Perhaps that's why it's so easy for the new Rikti invasion ships to get through from the outside.

Anyone here watched Charlie Chaplin's 'The Kid?' Didn't get a chance to watch all of it, due to it only popping up briefly in our cinematography lecture.
If you were to try to pull that off these days, people would be calling junk like 'pervert' before it had even premiered.

And honestly? That is so many levels of tripe you could feed the world for years. People these days will attach horrible conotations to even the simplest and most innocently meant of things.

I'd like anything that could make the City feel more alive, personally.
And hey, the Isles could have it's own unique brand of grubby, cockney urchins scurrying around
I have to agree with the Techbot here. The level of "politically correct" fear flying around on these boards is disconcerting at times. Woman? Are you nuts! Then people will put them in bondage! Children? That's crazytalk! Don't even talk like that!

Sometimes I worry about society, since it seems like people can't think of children without mentally associating them with molestation and can't think of women without associating them with abuse. They're not intrinsically linked, you know. You CAN have children in a game without breaking seven laws just for having them there.

and also recluse's chosen one system presumably works around prisoners who are locked in the zig at a particular time, and I don't think Paragon City is the kind of place where young offenders are put in with some of the worst criminal masterminds and supervillains in the world. Moreso Paragon Juvey kinda has a ring to it

The request was for civilian children, and as far as I known being a child is sort of a prerequisite for one becoming an adult, at least as far as humans are concerned.

Those cows were actually shape-changing Skrulls who had been hypnotized by Reed Richards. When they regained their usual forms, they left the game to avoid bringing down a Marvel lawsuit... ; )

I'm not entirely convinced its the ESRB-- there are several "hair trigger" issues that various parents' or religious groups look for, misconstrue, and hype to all hell in their vigilance against the industry, and many games may just want to reduce the risk of raising THEIR ire...
It's entirely possibly, Chase. In the States, a publisher has changed a certain necessary, historically accurate word in their edition of "Huck Finn", to the detriment of Twain's satire of racism, and here in Canada, the government has banned Dire Strait's "Money For Nothing" from airplay because it parodies blue-collar homophobia. Hard to blame the Devs for wanting to avoid "the appearance of evil", though it's sad they must choose to do so.

Another poster noted that Chaplin's "The Kid" would be looked on with horror these days, but it only reflected the reality of its times, just as "Thirteen" is a disturbing but realistic film about (some of) today's young people.

There is probably a "golden mean", but ideological extremism seems to be the spirit of the times in North America.

On the other hand, perhaps CoH lacks children because they simply haven't gotten around to addressing the issue. To me, it looks like the Devs have been awfully busy for the last 7 years...

Here you go then.



Can someone explain to me two things, here (and I'll be very impressed if a redname clarifies this):

1) How did this get past the Quality Control stage of the design process?
2) What in the NPC skeleton would cause the "tent" so to speak?

And of course, there are no children. All of the test subjects were sterilized before being placed in the experiment.

That's a chillingly good way of looking at it!!!!
