Let us view our characters online

Was thinking it'd be cool to have a browser option to view our costumes, badges, personal info, builds, and set bonuses in an official format linked to the actual game that always remained updated. This would be convenient to look up what badges are needed for certain accolades, copying current builds into Mid's for adjusting if we don't have them saved, or just showing off costumes/bios/etc to friends.

I would even be willing to pay a one time fee per character since bandwidth obviously isn't free. Dunno, just figured I'd throw the thought out there.

That's what the City Vault was supposed to be. It's been mentioned throughout the game's lifetime sporadically, but never came into existence. I don't know why or when we stopped talking about it, but I recall hearing it was technically just too difficult.

Oh weird.. I was thinking it'd just be a matter of taking all the info that the game already stores and recoding it for the web.

It was the "taking all the info that the game stores" aspect that was causing the issues apparently. It was generating masses of Network traffic causing all sorts of internal networking issues.

Simple answer was it lagged everyone and everything into unplayability, or to a level that the Devs simply weren't happy with inflicting on players and, ultimately, the idea was scrapped.

Is it time to kill more puppies? Everytime someone mentions the Vault, Fido gets it.
