It's great that you are still reading. But, like jays costume request thread people will stop believeing you unless you occaisionally pop in every few pages to say something.
This morning I'm going to be the pessimist. You set up those threads to get feedback. It is important for you to give us feedback too. Tell us it's a good idea or you don't know how to implement something. I gurantee you'll get 10 good ideas and 50 bad ones. It's great that you created the threads, but it's not enough to just create them. Keep them full of red posts.

Maybe some hyperbole because I was reading more snark than your response here implies was true. My apologies if I was wrong in my interpretation.|

(for the record: I am also underwhelmed by the initial implementation, but put on my patience belt. round two better show improvement.
)
City of Heroes was my first MMO, & my favorite computer game.
R.I.P.

Carnies pieces? or Pool/patron color customization that we are long over due for?
Please say the pool/patron color is atleast coming soon.

I was sorely disappointed by the new animations, not just because what I was hoping for wasn't realised (eye and chest type animations across the board) but because in the case of my Elec/Energy domi they hadn't even provided new animations for his ranged NRG powers, only half of them which honestly looks a bit rubbish.
Hence "half-hearted", literally
I'll wait for round 2, hopefully the open beta thread for it where the majority of subjective feedback was negative in terms of how limited it was will give the animation department an idea of what people expect nowadays when custom options are added to powersets (along the lines of Weapon Customization and the original Power Customization systems).
They're the ones who set the bar high, even if the team has changed since then, they're the heights I expect from Paragon Studios.
(so yes there is snark there, but not Doom levels of snark, just a low level of background snark which is kinda my ground setting).

Hey man we like to be helpful! Just tell us what we can do to help out the team! |

Sidenote: we had a project TODAY, in fact, that specifically benefited from going back to some of the earlier ATA posts. There was a sub-topic that was suddenly relevant again, and I remembered reading some excellent suggestions. Now they'll be put to use. Coincidence, but a great illustration of how these threads have been helpful. |
You know I live not too far from Mountain View (I think that's where Paragon Studios is.), if you want me to come make some suggestions in person, or bring you some coffee or something just let me know, I'm happy to help!
I'm sure others are happy to lend their assistance as well.

Fair enough, and you'll continue to see me posting on ATA and other threads of course. But I don't feel a need to say 'good idea' over and over, even though that's often how I feel. As much as I'd love to have a full conversation about every post, to talk through the challenges and merits of each, there's only so much time, y'know? And this concept art ain't going to draw itself after all. |

One specific topic I'd like to hash out in the main ATA thread is a reaction to the Animal Pack. I'll go over there now, in fact...

I think you'll get a better idea of the reactions to the Animal Pack if you follow the feedback threads in the Test Forum since it was specifically called out to be given there. I don't think most people are coming back to the ATA thread to give feedback. |

Excellent. I don't expect a lot, I don't think the forumites need a lot. Though I have to imagine that you run into a post everyonce in awhile that either makes you go "huh?" or "Not sure..." those would be where, if I were you, I would give the thread a little poke. "Hey thready show me some more." |

/shameless plug
This month I'm running the art jam, I'd love to see what you (forumies, NS, random guy at the library) can make of the freeform topic I've picked out. Or just wander around the Fan Art board and check out all the great art and artists.

Roxy On DA...Finally!
Im a David/Noble fanboy.
Im so happy he posted in my thread, even if I was pessimist and you know, like, trolling a bit
Looks like is a steampunk booster in the works.
I hope they use some of the concept art from the GR steampunk draws.
Is always good to see him posting, its like "Aw, David is still with us". It makes me think this game is still in good hands.
