You asked. You speculated. You didn't think it would happen. But get ready to roar, because here comes the Booster Pack you've been waiting for: the Animal Pack is on its way!

Unleash the savage beast you've always wanted with OVER 60 new costume parts and patterns! Prowl the streets of Paragon City as a ferocious cheetah, stalk your way through the Rogue Isles as a bestial wolf, soar the skies of Praetoria as an eagle or lumber your way around as a monstrous minotaur. With new customizable heads, details, patterns, legs, and tails, you can go wild with possibilities!

The Animal Booster also includes new emotes, new auras, four costume change emotes, and the Beast Run travel power, which will let your animal alter ego leap and bound through City of Heroes on all fours!

We'll be shedding more information soon, but for now check out our latest trailer that should get you howling with anticipation!

Don't see any shark/fish parts. My main interest in this pack was for my shark-themed character, guess I won't be getting it now. Kind of disappointed.

With "OVER 60" pieces and details?
Impressive!
"New customizable heads"... I shall temper my expectations... as the current monstrous heads are technically customizable (head height and width... and colors too). So, I'll not assume this means more... (trying not to, hehe).

This should be a great pack!

i wish there was a rodent version... I'm sure we'll be able to concoct something.

I know this will be another pack I would buy.

Personally, I'd still like to be able to do a lamia/naga-esque character, but I'm not holding my breath on that front.

I'm not even that much into animals, and I want this! New costume change emotes and auras are always cool in my book. And I might very well find uses for these parts that I never thought of before! Egyptian dieties, anyone?

I have mixed expectations for this. On the one hand, I've never even been tempted to consider an animal character in all the years I've been playing. On the other hand, I sort of wonder if that isn't just because the current options aren't very impressive. The new pieces do look quite nice, so I might try taking advantage of them after all.

We'll see what's all included in the promised sixty new pieces. Though I can say that if there are some cool new Claws options among them, that'll probably guarantee my ten bucks being spent.

Thunder..

Thunder....

Thunder......

THUNDERCATS... Hooooo!


Looks good.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

Actually, if you look at the allignment emote picture and the wider shots in the video, it seems that one is wearing long white flares with the new cheetah pattern on. Why? Iunno. Probably just to show off the pattern on other, older parts too.

Seriously though, no more teasing. I don't think I can wait another week. I have a werewolf who is dieing to run on all fours.



50's (Only most important)
Zuraq (53 EM/SR Brute)
Stagmalite (50 Granite/Fire TanK)
(Couple of other's I don't care about.)

Personally, I'm not assuming the patterns only work on "clothing". Good job of fixating on one image, though.


Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas

Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

I hope this is coming Thursday. Or at least Tuesday. I have money set aside already.

Cool tiger head. And pawed feet. I won't be using any of the photo-realistic animal heads or anything, but if there are over 60 parts I'll be able to find use for something. If nothing else I want it for the beast run so my monkeygirl can run around on all fours for laughs.

W00t W00t W00t!! This will be awesome!!! I also would like some aquatic themed outfits, but some of these pieces look AMAZING!!!! (Is this too many exclamation points?) Anyway, now my only question is "How long is 'soon'"?
