Concerns about CO

A lot has improved in CO. Missions added, costumes in the C-Store, and vehicles aren't being shoved down our throats (and the memory of that horrid attempt to get us to buy vehicles by offering a single costume piece when we were starved for them was almost comical). I'm not going to go through the routine of reviewing all of them, good work on that. Thank you, please keep that up.
So, let me engage the concerns I have.
-We still haven't seen any new power sets. Oh, we got new 'powers' (no new animations, just some simple additions) And that's a problem, because this is one thing that would actually get me to play the game all over again. Otherwise, I simply can't justify rerolling to get one or two new powers. CoX is in the grave, and there's no trademark on their powers... so why not hijack some of that goodness for your own?
-The idle animations are still limited. I mean, they're just in need of either an overhaul or some new options. CoX had a wider variety and DCUO's were outright badass in some cases. and I get it- the skeletons are different and whatnot... but this needs severe improvement. So far, males are limited to either "on drugs in a new place", "robotic heroic boring", "gorilla" and "gorilla that just did sprints". Please work on this.
-Many costume parts are still only available on ONE material, namely metal. However, the Cyberpunk and Holo Hex costume parts should have the same diversity of materials as the Psionic Dragon and Holoforce costume.
-We're still missing crafted weapons, and quite honestly- we'd like them returned. Find ONE person in this game that disagrees.
-Weapons are still being neglected. Yes, you added some new swords, which is fine if that's your thing. For a lot of people, it isn't. Claws and Ego weapons have been forgotten. The energy sword is still boring and has no additional options. The last rifle we got was awesome, but the last pistol we got was slapstick grabass. Please consider weapons packs sometime in the near future, it would be appreciated.
-Anime pistols are still broken, and the muzzle flash is STILL coming out the side of the muzzle, rather than out of it. Myself and others have brought this up continuously and nothing has been done, it's a bit sad that something stays this broken since release.

Add to this the female ones: "limping and lost", "robotic heroic boring", "finding it hard to balance" and "I'm Spider-Man, but a woman, with claws and a stupid face".

Zero of my twenty current characters use weapons. So yeah I have no need for crafted weapons at all.
Pick up temporary use weapons/powers like in Unreal Tournament/Quake/Halo, etc would be much more fun than having to manage bankfuls of garbage items hoping to amass enough trash to make something with a mediocre animation.
Then you are in the minority. Sometimes we make suggestions based on what the majority of players would like coupled with what we imagine is actually feasible.
I'm pretty sure that Cyber was talking about having the crafted weapon skins back, rather than the old crafting system to make them.

and along power replacements and Weapons Unlocks. They also removed (By Accident?) Therakiel's Sword, Nephilim Wings and Back Halo, the whole NemCon Alien Gladiator Pieces from the End-Game Lair... and yet they NEVER bothered to fix it and Bring them pack Despite being END-GAME REWARDS... I'm mean WTF?
I will add my Concerns as well
This screams Fake Difficulty
I freaking Love this game and I want it to succeed, but stuff like these (along those you stated) make me really Frustrated making me Hate to Love this game
and I am planning going Lifetimer next year JUST so I can be able to create all my characters ingame
But seeing this mess makes me think "I want to pay 215 € FOR THIS?"
At least having ONE would be better than having zero.

You willingly ignore all these important factors that are undeniably needed to form actual reliable data on player populations. I think I know who's really talking out of their behind. Hey, I'm just using your own words.
On topic:
- I think it's high time MA gets a charged kick attack, with knockback if possible.
- I want the tailor's static stance. Want it want it want it.
Please let me look for costume pieces I DON'T have. Please let me look for items based only on stats - single or multiple.
I don't use animal heads at all. Never, ever. Therefore, let's remove them from the game.
Also, I hate wings and refuse to use them. Delete them.
I don't really use anything from the sorcery powersets, get rid of them, too.
Do you see how absurd that all sounds? You would, if you could tone down the sense of self-importance. Clearly a biproduct of always being told you were special and getting a trophy just for participating.
You, me, and 99% of the rest of the players.

Potent stuff like AoPM, AoRP and Skarn's Bane would suggest to me that Sorcery isn't as unpopular or rarely used as you make it to be.
I'm hoping they make use of the plethora of unused animations kicking around for new powers.
So just accept it that the game is not going to be polished or fixed ever. A cash grab is a cash grab and looking at what they are doing makes it extremely clear that this is just that. So investing time in it would be contradictive to what they are clearly doing here. I do not mind paying for stuff but then I want them to use that money for this game. They are clearly not which is sad.
Nepht and Dr Deflecto on primus
They all thought I was out of the game....But I'm holding all the lockboxes now..
I'll......FOAM FINGER YOUR BACK!
AoPM and Skarn's aren't from Sorcery? :O
You actually missed the Doom that used to be in this thread. A mod cleaned it out.
There. Now its a proper Doom Thread.
How about all the costume pieces in the jacket section that cause half your characters body to disappear? And all the clipping from the new sets, some clipping is to be expected but seriously some of the pieces are absurdly bad.
The in game super group finder could use an overhaul as well.
No kidding, the Beast Running and Idle animation is incredible stupid, I stop using it (like the majority of the poses, I only use Heroic)
and If I want the Beast run I had to put up with that Stupid Ducking-Idle every time my character stays in one place
That's because those new costume pieces ARE NOT Jackets in the First Place, they just unlocked in ALL the categories and Jackets happen to be one of them! If you want to use them use them in the other Categories
and honestly we like this Body Dissapearence, a lot of people took advantage of it to make theme-related characters costumes! This doesn't need fix
only the Clipping needs to get fixed

but i have one pet project that, while improbable, is something i'd love to see redimensionalize the game. a little work done to enliven throwing environmental stuff. its something co did well at start that I loved, it never felt like dcou gave the feeling of scale that co does with lifting trucks and tanks, and coh simply didnt have throwing at all, outside of from powers that made their own projectile. but heres the problem, it takes comparably long to lift specific weight class items and the damage for both a thrown and melee item is so low it doesnt support ever using it, particularly not in boss fights, where historically throwing specific items at them was used for debuffs and setting up weak points. it could also be another reward from raising your str stat, since the melee damage bonus flattens off pretty fast. so id love to see damage raised for melee and ranged waponizations, and durability raised for melee ones..having a viper tank explode after i hit one white con minion kind of devalues the time spent lifting it. different debuff style thrown items that show up in boss rooms and may have a specific trick to get to respawn. and a power, either as a might power or a str perk that allows you to pick up a certain number of weight classes instantly so we can cause a lot of damage quickly without being constantly interrupted.
