Don't get me wrong, it is fine creating a evil looking champion to be the hero, i just see more evil looking champs then heroic looking types..maybe they were villains now redeemed? i don't know...
It just means cryptic needs to add a villain side to the story so we can actually be the villain and our nemesis could be a hero to try and stop us, until they give up or die so we can create a new hero lol

Let's say I beat up Viper and other villain groups because they are a threat to me, they are my rivals. I work with other heroes because they pay me (I collect the reward when the job is done
That's how I roll on "villain side".
Also they would have to rework all the quests and missions to get a working villain side in CO and that's a lot of work and they are not gonna do that, ever. So, I'd just recommend using your imagination. :biggrin:

Part of it is that Cryptic still hasn't given us the ability to change tinting as well as hue in colors of powers (and yes the engine does support it, such as having a black & transparent AoPM aura, it's just that nobody else will see it because it's client-side only).
And also that Cryptic made two wonderful darkness devices, [Dark Aura] and [Dark Speed], but has yet to follow through on their plans to make an aura slot or more types of auras. Give people more cool options (such as a white-colored holy aura) and I'll be you'll see more designs out there.
I'd say the bigger challenge in this game is to make an original character.
PS: That's hilarious Flamingbunnyman!
Consolidate the currencies! (Please!)
Does your Champion have a theme song? (share it!)
Got a funny in-game screenshot? (share it!)
Please fix the Overdrive energy unlock! (Should help promote thematic build diversity!)
Most importantly it would give CO a nice and distinctive advantage to DCUO which already has a fully implemented villain side as well as bring in the COH/COV factor.
But that is just too much work and as we all know... they don't want to work on this game and certainly don't give a damn about what the players actually want...
Wow, that is actually true, they just bring in events that wont last long and also stupid lockbox and keys
Second to Real Soviet Damage, he's the most fun I've ever had with a character.

Yes they do. They know what we REALLY want is...LOCKBOXES AND MORE LOCKBOXES...maybe even Lockseption Lockboxes.
It's in the nature of humankind: dark is cool. And good is dumb.

If they DO make an evil sided champions game, I shall roll with the most sweet, goodie-two-shoes, angelic, and overall gay with sprinkles and sparkles character that I can come out with. With rainbowflight, of course...

There'd be a Multifarian Mirror-World as an optional starting area.
I'd rather not do the whole 'split morality' thing. Some of us don't like being exclusively 'hero' but wouldn't dare cross the line and become a 'villain'.
Truth be told, I've done some thinking on this and I have a hypothesis on why there are so many 'evil' characters.
1- There are too many 'evil' pieces in the tailor. By this, I mean that there are a ton of horns, spikes, blades, claw-fingers, monster parts, etc. The hilarity of this is that these pieces would be AWESOME in a fantasy MMORPG, but for a superhero game they're a bit excessive in the sheer number. Note, I'm not saying 'get rid of them'... I'm saying that the tailor needs more balance.
2- Juveniles. A lot of 'evil' characters I meet RPing aren't 'evil', they're just kids and not-so-creative people who want what I call the demonic 'blank check to be a badass'. Rolling a demon-vampire-werewolf-monster-chaos-lord- sorcerer-from-hell is a way for someone to be a badass without actually having a real reason to be a badass. It's like buying a sports car versus making a hot rod- sure, it might be more economical and time-saving, but in the end the one that's 'earned' the right to be a badass is the one that gets respect. Also, a lot of these 'evil' characters have it explicitly stated in their bio that they can't die or be harmed, basically- they're kids who seek out conflict and drama and don't know how to manage it.
3- It's the crap people watch. It's just my opinion, and I don't really mind if you disagree... but I think anime is 99% trash. And sadly, spattered all over this trash is the 'evil monster protagonist demon whatever' and that is one of the major inspirations. Even in video games, the heroes in Japanese games look like demons, and the same can be said for fantasy MMO top-tier armor. And hey, I'm sorry- but to me Manga is not comic books.
So yeah, there's my theory.
Git a rope!

And we have "lockception" in the form of the Drifter store.
Though I wonder if light characters will be encouraged to make with the aura system.
I'd actually like to do something like that. Auras would definitely make a nice angelic character look a lot more epic or, dare I say, positively glowing.
Screw morality, be a mercenary.

It works for Batman.

I like that picture.
BlitzHopper, a brainwashed and emo ex-heroine.
Geistesblitz, who is a bit like Magneto.
And Velvet, a half-demonic life energy sucker.
The twist: They all are a lot nicer than some of my antiheroes!
Christmas Rose- and angel with scourge powers[and a safety line] (I got soooo sick of seeing all the skull headed scourges)
her nemesis (and later a character) Angelica-the Rising demon- a demon with radiant powers.
Rose looks good and is bad, Angelica is good but looks bad. ok she did do something bad,accidently. she dumped Rose on the list for soul pickups at Millenium City

This is one hundred times more original and better than like... Ninety percent of all those overly dark and edgy demonic toons.
Truth be told, every time when I see all those spiky black crimson skull chain fear-me-because-I'm-soo-terrific (sorry, but you aren't, the only thing to fear in your costume is more likely your color blindness, but each to their own, have fun) I'm simply laughing.
Because they are supposed to be heroes, reading their bio... But I have RPed hardcore villain who looks more heroic than they are - and he was specially costumed to look crude and brutal.
Surely they were supposed to be scary and edgy, but in truth they are all the same, and barely interesting. Grimdark fallen angels and demons with the same backgrounds, one less original than another. At this moment and in this number they are no more interesting than sleeping pills. It's hard to even bother with checking their grimdark bios, really.
One of my toons used to make in-character jokes how some of the dark heroes are costumed more like a "police signals batched in black paint and wrapped in barbed wire". :biggrin:

Also
/screenshot_ui saves image in .tga files
while
/screenshot_ui_jpg saves images in .jpg files.
if you want image saved in high resolution with UI more clean you can also type command
/renderscale 2
before taking screenshot with said commands.
It will be also a massive hit to your framerate so after taking screenshot disable this high resolution by typing command
/renderscale 1
So someone who is a massive Goth a pony AND has superpowers?

Champions Online: Be the hero you wish you could be in a better game.
That's what I was thinking. Granted, to get your hero to look that way, you had to choose tights, and therefore the hero doesn't have nipples or genitalia to show, anyway.
Whoever you are, be that person one hundred percent. Don't compromise on your identity.

I hate you and your ponies sometimes... Some things just don't go very well with ponies. I dare you to find a ponified Shin Kamen Rider that you didn't commission yourself.
