Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION!

Ok so I was thinking. There really is a place for vehicles in a superhero game with tons of comicbook examples to justify that.

But there are elements of the implementation that de-supers some of the core superhero concepts unfairly.

But Cryptic appears to have committed to vehicles as part of their financing of the game making them essential to its future.

But this might end up losing many players as those whose hero concept doesn't include vehicles might get further and further isolated by vehicular developments and alerts that require vehicles.

But I HAVE A PLAAAAAN!!!!!!! Mua-HA-Ha-Ha!

Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION!

A device that provides vehicle speeds to a hero's existing travel power while active.

Your flying hero should be as fast as a fighter jet? Get The Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! and have your flight speed up appropriately!

Feel decelerated as the fastest thing in MC when some lumbering tank flies faster than you? Then your speedster needs Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! and return your reputation to it's rightful place!

Shout the catchphrase "Ride the Lightning" as you launch into the air with electroflight only to move slowly accross the sky like a cloud on a warm summer day? Get The Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! with it's ultra-conductive tesla-ised orgone-capacitor and flash accross the sky at real lightniing-speeds!

Your Wings cramping up from the effort of trying to keep up with your comrades because that tank wasn't built with a 15 foot wingspan in mind and those jetbikes just get unstable on you cause your wings drag like a couple of sails when riding? New Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! contains massage-o rays that will sooth those aching muscles while helping you keep up with the whole team!

Magical Flight letting you down? The Orichalcum Matrix and Red Mercury Core in the new Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! uses ancient secrets from Merlins own spellbook to magnify the potency of any flight spell!

Teleport? The dimensional stabilisation matrix of Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! will get you further more precisely than you ever thought possible!

Turn into a Flock of Bats? Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! has a drop of Blood of Dracula inside a vampire-bat skull once worn as an earring by Ersebet Bathori in every device (using hyper-dimensional-reproduction technology) that will spur on your chiropteral sojourns getting you twice as far as ever before and back to base well before sunrise!

Why we even have a matter-destabilising quantum-foam chemical-bond-disrupter that means Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! will aid you in tunnelling through the ground faster than a speedster mole-squirrel-cross-manimal on a dangerous overdose of caffeine!

And we have also included a spell from the tomb of Amon-Hotep to speed up scarabs!

But wait, there's more!
While standard Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! will appear in the Z-store special versions of Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! will be available via the Drifter, the Questionite Exchange or found in special Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! lock-boxes.

Not happy riding on a disc to catch those Lemurian Exocets when your Hero concept is a speedster fast enough to run on the very air itself? (and surely we've all seen the occassional glitch where flying hero's get stuck on the running animation) Get the AERIAL Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! and have that (glitch) power at will at at vehicle speeds! Any ground-travel becomes airborne with this baby equiped!

Want to get even faster? Well in lockboxes you might find two or 3 slot Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! that can take acceleration mods! Not enough? The Drifter sells the Super-Omni-Quantum-Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Perfecto-Ultimate-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! for the fastest speed around! *

* note: fastest speed around claim is valid only of current speeds available at time of release patch. Claim does not count future possible speed increases and new faster speeds may become possible in the future as technology develops, alien tech is reverse-engineered and lab accidents caused by lightning strikes continue to plague chemists around the world

So what do you think? Should we use a vehicle-like device to restore superhero's speed to the equal of vehicles for those who don't want their hero vehicularised while continuing to support Cryptics new business strategy?

Then pledge your support to the Hyper-Mega-Ultra-Lightspeed Acceleration Device For RE-SUPER-ISATION! plan today and every day!

    So, are you suggesting that each Travel Power should have its own Bind-to-Character Accelerator Device? I could definitely see that.

    Actually, she's just proposing a single item (see thread title) that would boost travel powers to vehicle levels. This is the right way to do it because you don't want the item to become obsolete if you change travel powers. Due to technical limitations, this device would only work where vehicles are allowed, which is fine by me.

    I would buy several of them.

    Cryptic should also make the fast UNTIL hoverdisk available for sale, as well as unarmed versions of jets and gravity bikes as non-combat travel powers.

    Also vehicle-grade flying carpets and the like for less technology-oriented characters.

    I wasn't thinking clearly here. The speed booster would also work with hoverdisks, flying carpets, etc., so there wouldn't be a need to sell speed boosted versions of those travel powers.

    You can get r4 tp. Not going to post how to, again since some snitches tried getting me banned the last time i mentioned it. But technically what you are asking for is already there. It lasts 20 sec and has a cd of 30 sec, not too bad... yet pretty much useless.
