    Since we have squirrel tails, can we get a squirrel head option?

    Suggestion : Add a cobra head and skin types matching the new rattlesnake skin texture. Also I read about a crocodile head being added (non skull one) didn't see it anywhere
    There's always SOMETHING going wrong SOMEWHERE

    How about a better squirrel tail...one that's animated.

    One that also doesn't clip most of the female head in all standing stances would be nice too.

    There is already a crocodile head in the game. Though they could add a more realistic one, like they did with the new heads.

    Devastator.

    Don't mind the EU that much.. but since it scales on END it's a bit weird. It also locks the AT into being built to maximize on Clinging flames. Though it is amusing to become a Brimstone Spam machine. :). At 40 I can SPAM brimstone endlessly, not sure if that's WAI. But it burns through mobs quite quickly.

    I disagree with Cleave being useless... Cleave is the AT's bread and butter attack in early levels. You pretty much spam cleave the first half of your career as a Devastator. So don't touch cleave. When players leave feedback, they often forget about the early game or low level players.

    Suggestion:
    Give the AT a choice between a self heal or the Energy unlock. That would open up the playstyle a bit. Right now the AT is locked into choices that require using Clinging Flames.

    Yes I know this, but I was indeed meaning what you said. Also for that matter, add skin textures that can work with tights etc.

    It should be possible to make cleave playable at 40 and still be fine at level 1. Damage does scale with level and SS after all. Also, it should be possible to make the Great Power advantage something players might actually care about.

    level 1-16 lasts about 2 hours, btw, so it's not really a significant portion of the character's lifespan. (And it wouldn't even matter if cleave was a little OP for those 16 levels).

    Brimstone could already be spammed endlessly. The EU adds literally nothing and players would be better off just ignoring they have it than trying to contort their playstyle to incorporate clinging flames for unnoticeable e-returns. Taking Aftershock on Brimstone is a net dps reduction for zero benefit.

    Power Chord's new change is phenomenal. Thanks for adding this.

    Opening the Stereo Glide Hoverpack unlocks the skin automatically without having to use the skin unlock item it gives you.

    Okay, making an action figure for literally every mob is becoming so out of hand that its disgusting.​​

    Very odd, after testing some more I can't reproduce the lower damage I got this morning. Looks very much like I made a mistake somewhere, just no idea what it is.

    The Rhino head should be a rare drop from White Rhino in Moreau's Laboratory in Monster Island. The Hyena Swine head should be a rare drop from the mission Besting the Beast Master from Father Elk in MI too.

    I hate to be "that guy" but the character's name is Hyena Swine, not "Chimera Swine". The Manimal you fight in the Open Mission is named Chimera.
    It makes sense, if you don't think about it.

    I want to ask for one bug fix that's long overdue;

    Fix Foxbat's face. I mean seriously, I forget when they did it but they made a change that broke his damn mouth and it's been this vulgar, unprofessional pair of lips that aren't even attached to his face for the past few years now. Please, for the love of all that is Champions, let's get Foxbat's faced fixed for Foxbat Con for once.

    Yea, even went to make sure I wasn't crazy... please fix this hideous thing and put his face back to the way it use to be.;

    Foxbat minion costumes, good. Some people have been wanting that for a long while. Maybe I find some use for them, but still, good one.

    New permanent devices for fun? Thank you!

    Ooh more hoverboards? Thank you²!

    I may not use the Animal parts, but I'll get that set right as soon as I can, the variety of choices is always greatly loved, I would request making some more animal body parts, we don't have *that* many as of right now.

    The change to Vicious Descent is great, I always prefer picking that over Decimate! I'm not sure why you're hitting on Skewer's cost, but can we have something that benefits off Clinging Flames on the Devastator AT? Maybe some changes to Skullcrusher (It looks awesome, but it could use some damage boost, in my opinion).

    The Rockstar skill tree seems pretty legit, I don't see any complaints at the moment.

    I believe I speak for many right now, thank you for the Power Cord root change and advantage!

    TK Maelstorm change is very appreciated, I can finally use it without having to worry about lagging my friends to death!

    "Dodging no longer plays a blocking animation" OH MY GOD... THANK YOU!
    (Although, I'm sure all of us know, I believe it should be said "Dodging while under Lightning Reflexes no longer plays a blocking animation" since at other occasions you do not block).

    Considering he's not suppose to be a Joker, but more of a Deadpool, but anyways, I am well aware why we will probably not get that mood, other than the fact we haven't gotten a new mood or any new stances since the launch of this game and it has to do with a certain character type, since I am fairly certain a fair number of people will make their homages/clones if that mood were present :p That and the fact that mouth isn't even animated nor does it animate.

    I suspect the HW changes won't be hitting live until the Rockbox goes live. Given that they just announced a flashback week? Yeah, probably not until the 24th or thereabouts. Might see some tweaks peaking through, I'm doubtful for it as a focal point.

    I doubt it's going live until Foxbat Con comes out which means you got a few weeks.​​

    Foxbat face is broken because it's not animated. Lips stay in this smile even when he talks. Looks hella weird and not like a smile at all.
    It miiight be made on purpose because someone back then saw his Foxbat for President illustration in CU books, but in practice it did not work at all as a 3d game animation.

    Well it's why I want it gone really. Foxbat is a less murder induced Deadpool, not a constant grinning gibbering person that the face makes him out to be, and actually if used right is one of the most dangerous super villains in the CU.

    Hell even seeing the Foxbat for President face, still doesn't match up :-/

    Bobblehead aura - Basically a "give me a GIANT head" aura. I expected some bobble out of it.

    The animal heads and tails are all pretty good. Can't wait to see them finished up with customizable eyes and such.
    Suggestion: Make the tips of the Kitsune tails be a different channel like the old foxtail so we could have a white tip or such.

    Also, I've gotta say after testing it, I'm kind of underwhelmed by the sparkle hair texture. I honestly expected it would give the hair texture an effect similar to the Sparkle Skin aura, instead, it makes the hair nigh-invisible except for the sparkles. You can still get the effect I expected by using the second hairstyle and choosing the same hair, so I can kind of see why you decided to make the hair invisible. It's just a bit too invisible, IMO.​​

    Well, it DOES have a glow channel that's pretty hard to miss when applied.
