i actually started a thread in player questions asking if others had noticed this, but hadn't posted any pictures. It's been brought to Zwill's attention, so there is that...
Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...
They make us twist necks and backs into unnatural positions, but won't let us write **** on the forums because it would be obscene! The horror...the horror!
The best comics are still 10�!
My City of Heroes Blog Freedom Feature Article: "Going Rageless?"
If you only read one guide this year, make it this one.
Super Reflexes: the Golden Fox of power sets!
WARNING: I bold names.
Fair is only fair if the devs say so. **** is obscene, but grotequely misshapen bodies left in the wake of our heroic "justice" is perfectly acceptable.
I just had to say this makes me think of:
"I can do it myself!"
This is causing no end of grief for larger mobs, like hydra men, as their various parts juggle together trying to reach the ground. If I knock one over, it can take almost 15 seconds for it to finish falling down.
I assume this is also the reason for at least some of the oddities people have been observing with knockback. This morning I actually had 2 hydra men fall *towards* me when I hit them with a knockback power.
We shoot them up with various and sundry weapons, we claw and sword them, we ninja them, we mess with their minds, we throw them around telekinetically, we shoot energy at them, we repel them with forcefields, we scream hypersonically at them, we pummel them with fists, we shoot beams of radiation at them, strike them with electricity... did I leave anything out? If I did, y'all add it...
AND WE'RE THE HEROES.
Some baddies are gonna get their necks broken. SO?! It's not like they don't get transported to the Zig's hospital and fixed...
/They knew what they were getting into. They CHOSE to be villians... I say... let them contort grotesquely when they expire!
August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.
This is houtex, aka Mike, signing off the forums. G'night all. - 10/26/2012
Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012
It's caused by the update to the PhsyX Engine. And I like it! (I think it's a bug, like the Knockback thing, also caused by the update to the PhysX Engine).

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:
I have noticed lately that when the baddies die, some are WAYYY more contorted than in the past. Anyone else notice this? Is this WAI or perhaps a rp problem?
