Wish List for 21

Anything other than incarnate stuff.


 

Posted

1. An Ice Ancillary for Defenders (seriously! We haven't got one! It ruins the theme of my Cold/Ice defender! Not to mention that I have to go villain to get a defence shield!)
2. Illusion Control for Dominators
3. Cold Domination for Masterminds.

Och rosor i ett sprucket krus

Mastermind changes

Mercenary buffs (this includes Mercenaries: reducing recharge times on very long-charging powers, as well as increasing the effectiveness of Serum or tossing it aside)

Aside from that...

There'll be some Incanrate stuff in I21, but also some non-Incanrate stuff - just like I19 ansd I20

Red Emphasis.

While I play almost exclusively on heroes, and do not agree with the Praetorian attitude toward Primal Earth at all (and would therefore never want to join Tyrant), I do not understand why there absolutely cannot be an option to sign on as a Praetor and stay in Praetoria. It is yet another avenue of character development that (IMO) would be worth looking into.


@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

There are several reasons, both story and gameplay - and the current development path guarantees us a faster output of Trials, and the full playerbase to recruit from.

And more costume slots.

Story and game-play are completely controlled by the devs.

If they wanted to they could trun around and say after Issue 23 they are developing content that allows you to side with Cole.


Blazara Aura LVL 50 Fire/Psi Dom (with 125% recharge)
Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!

Even though defeating Tyrant is the first step on the Incanrate path?

You're neglecting to point out that restoring him to power is the second step.

But that would mean having to fight and defeat him again before we can face the Coming Storm.

"Tyrant has to be defeated before we can face the Coming Storm" doesn't preclude him from being defeated, then restored to power. Perhaps we can't face the Coming Storm without restoring him to power...but we can't restore him to power without defeating him first! Then Prometheus' words are still true. He seems shifty enough to try something like that anyway.

I'd like any one thing of existing art from anywhere in the game to be made available to

the base editor. Just to show that someone still knows that there are bases in this

game too.


 

Posted

Power customization for all power pools, more alternate animations (Electrical Melee says hello), and some new recipes would be nice.

More specifically, of course: New FREE costumes. ><

how about some level of Hench Custimization,
Mercs among other things have always been a bit blah looking, or maybe you want your robots appear to look like some of the ingame robots

This, this, and this.

I want Self-Duplication. Bad. Like real bad.

indeed, figured that was implied because i wanted it with an issue rather than a booster, but i'll happily clarify, more costumes included in an issue at no extra cost.

if they do it, i suspect you would be beside yourself in happiness.

1. Another vote for Power Pool customization
2. Dark Blast/Dark Mastery proliferation to Blasters and Doms
3. Peacebringers get a look see from the Devs, maybe increase their damage solo or something to make them on par with Warshades and VEATs
4. Boomtown gets a makeover like Faultline, maybe for the 12-20 levels
5. Grandville gets some infrastructure that makes the ability to Fly less necessary
6. Moon base?
7. Underwater area?
8. New alternate animations
9. Devs finally read Deadpool, add Katana Or Dual Blades as a Blaster secondary
10. Fire Blast for Defenders
11. All self Rez powers, Conserve Energy-type powers, and teammate Rez powers get a reduction in their ridiculously long recharge times
12. Blaster PBAoE nukes get an optional form that does less damage but is ranged and doesn't drain all your End (no more suicide powers)
13. Medicine pool no longer interruptible (might have been "fun" seven years ago, not so much now). Also gets alternate animations that mesh better with different Origins
13. Smoke Grenade accepts Range enhancements
14. Devs read Iron Man comics and finally ask why it's "fun" that ranged characters get little/no status protection, while melee gets it often with one power pick.
15. Power Pools have the "you must pick this power before you can have that one" requirement removed: No More Useless Powers policy begins
16. Intangibility powers (i.e. Black Hole) get a revision, so that they can have a -Regen effect instead of Intangibility if slotted with Heal enhancements
17. Super Speed gets an alternate animation: Motorcycle
18. Gravity Control gets an upgrade.
19. Animation times longer than 2 seconds are reviewed, Devs announce they can't believe Propel takes so long and should have had that bug fixed in Issue 2.
20. SG base construction gets a revamp, all items are visible on Macs, and editing no longer crashes your computer.
21. Time Bomb converted to useful ranged power, renamed Hand Grenade

And we finally get a freaking Mac-native client!!!!!


Ideally, the tank will die precisely as everyone else starts fighting, allowing aggro to be spread evenly among the blaster. -seebs, "How to Suck at CoH/CoV" Guide

I'd love to see some powerset proliferation. Specifically, I'd like to see Sonic Resonance for Masterminds, Poison for Corruptors, and Ice Melee and Ice Armor for Stalkers and Scrappers.

And costumes of course. Always costumes.

I want them to expand the character slots on the servers to 48 or 60.

Small sidetrack:

As an alternative, would LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE to see time bomb get a secondary power button that is an optional "detonate" button. And perhaps an increase in damage on the power because it is very tricky to use well.

Plus I'd like to see the graphic for it changed or as a power customization the option to lay down the dynamite stick bomb that we've used as a glowie for years.
