Agreed on both counts. I think there were some comments from Z about putting this info out via other means (FB, twitter, etc). Hopefully that will give a better sampling of the player base.
But yeah, letting us vote on future options. Winning!
And if folks can, post links about this on other CoH related forums so news is spread around. This works best the more people are involved. So throw it up on your SG/VG's website, on your favorite video game website's forums, whereever!

They'll be doing the sme again at the next Player Summit in Arpil - players attending it will be able to choose a theme for a costume set, and then brainstorm ideas for what parts it should have.

Very true! While everyone gets to guide development of this set by voting on the individual pieces, our Player Summit Costume Workshop is the place to go if you want to help choose the high-level theme and begin the process of parting it out. Last I heard, we're definitely planning to do this again at the next Player Summit, so if you want to really get your hands dirty with costume design, you might consider coming out. |

Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

Soooo hoping I make it for the Summit in April. On topic, I think this is a great thing the devs are doing for the community. Read that as the entire community as they are reaching out to FB, twitter, trying to get a GMOTD going by the weekend, straight from Zwills post:

Add me to the list of those who would really, really like to go to one of the Summits, but can't afford the air fare, hotel, time off work, etc.
Each time one of these is announced and discussed, it rubs just a little bit more lemon juice into the cut.

Whole heartedly agree, it helps make up for things like not holding pummits out where people live that aren't convienent to Cali... (and I meant this as a positive, and not a dig)

My Stories
Look at that. A full-grown woman pulling off pigtails. Her crazy is off the charts.
Ok, they are doing something amazing for us, and ground-breaking for MMO's, and STILL people are complaining. Not because of what they are doing, but because they are not going to do this in a location that's personally convenient for them.
Ridiculous, just ridiculous.

It's completely relevant that some folks can't participate in that process because of where the Summit is held.
I think it's valid feedback.
YM obviously Varies.

Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank

Are you SERIOUS?! Who in their right mind would not JUMP (super or no) at the chance to go to Europe on the company dime??!
Instead, they are going down the block, probably won't get mileage comp., or time and a half for working evenings and all weekend because they're on salaried, though possibly parking comp., if they remember to file the paperwork. This is because employees never get to pick where they get to go, the corporate headquarters do, and they are going to aim for the least expensive place they can get away with, and still avoid looking cheap.
This is America, big guy! We don't do benefits like you fancy-schmancy Europeans living in the lap of luxury with your... your month-long paid vacations and...and chunnels to drive to them, and places anyone might want to see within an 8 hour drive! Nossir! We are made of sterner stuff! Mostly cholesterol, I think, but that's a different conversation.
Me, I could make it to Cleveland, but only if I claim my grandmother died again so I could get the time off work.

************************************************** **********
The devs have no control where they're being sent. Complaining to them is just needlessly negative. I am certain, like you and I, they would LOVE to go somewhere amazing like London, or New York, but the cost of such a thing would be prohibitive.
If anyone is upset about not being able to contribute, suggest something that's possible for them to do to get feedback before the summit. That would be a positive thing, rather than a dog pile of complaints that this very nice thing they're doing still isn't enough. Despite the fact that they have no control over that aspect of it at all!
I seem to have voted for least popular or second least popular in all categories.
Oh well.

Btw, what are the raygun pistols for? Dual pistols?
Or are they going to alter the Beam Weapons animations for use with Pistols?
I secretly hope they develop animations for using them with blast sets. Me want a freeze raygun, and a gun that shoots arrows!

You're right, Dante. After re-reading, it sounded terribly negative, which wasn't my intent. Apologies, folks.
