Just for show.. but I do have some screenshots of the first anniversary event where a dev tranformed himself into Grond in MC and was messing with people.
Saying the reason you don't buy an LTS because the internet is broken is like saying the reason you take the bus instead of buying your own car is because sometimes there are road closures. Nothing says "Self entitled first-world problems" like "I'm mad because the video game I like to play has been down ALL DAY! That's…
I'm kinda bummed that I've used up about 60 or 70 keys and didn't get a Krampus set or the Car. The 'rarest' thing I got was like 7 Switches. I've never had such terrible luck with boxes.
Well, the Heirloom gear is kind of useless pre-level 15 anyway.. but I mostly use it too if for no other reason than to get the XP buff and free eye aura. But since I made my robot on a lark I just started grabbing whatever mission gear I could get and realized that high dex was more beneficial to me than high con. Before…
Lots of good points, thanks for letting me know. I guess I didn't notice any of that stuff.. I kind of went against the grain in my build and ignored my Con stat and pumped all my gear into Dex and Ego anyway and my chest beams almost always crit resulting in 2-3K taps and 10-13K fully charged attacks so I was cutting…
I was a manager at Gamestop when it came out. I was following the development before that when I was a City of Heroes player and part of their settlement with the Marvel lawsuit meant Cryptic would be making the Marvel MMO.. when Marvel and/or Microsoft backed out and Cryptic bought the Champions IP I continued to follow…
I don't mind if you guys think my suggestions are outlandish. People thought my breakdown of how vechiles could work in game were outlandish. People thought my ideas about how to revamp the starting levels to keep people from being dumped into the desert or Canada out of the tutorial were outlandish and instead into the MC…
What's the final cost on this? I want to check it out for my girlfriend but I can't get a price because when I log into the page it just tells me I have an active account that can't be edited. Couldnt' find the rate, so if I'm missing it please let me know.
And yet, you reference not one, but two Twitter accounts in your sig :p As you probably know, adjusting the number of PMs on the forums is literally a single setting. The hard part of the accounts already being joined is still done. And the old functions were pretty customizable for Facebook and/or Twitter. You could even…
This would be my suggestion -- Revamp Vibora as the Villain zone for levels 1-28 (or whatever MC does). Make the Desert, Canada, Monster Island and Lemuria act as cross over zones and reskin some of the missions and dump them into places like the Viper base instead of Project Greenskin (Where you'd go in and eliminate the…
I feel your pain. I once made an alt to see if I could use the hover grav bike in the tutorial. After I found out I couldn't I deleted that useless character except.. oops.. forgot to get the bike back out of his inventory.
And I'll go even further to say how ridiculous it seems to utterly break the theme elements of the mission types. I'm not a huge role player... but I do like consistency in my fiction and "Grabs" (grabbing the loot) and "Smash" (smashing villains for XP) offering conflicting awards just seems like very little thought was…
I'm not particularly happy with this change. I can say that I don't like it at all. I suppose the idea is that it would balance out among failed missions not awarding XP but that happened so rarely it wasn't a problem. Oh well.
Not really.. I remember when we were promised we'd start getting state of the game posts about every month and that happened for approx. 1 month(s) in a row before it was halted. You're living in a rose colored "Leave it to Beaver was a documentary of the 1950s America" fantasy if you think they have EVER put any serious…
I think it would be absurd for auras not to be costume parts. There's enough snake oil shenanigans with the lock box stuff as it is.. don't put costume parts that should be available at character creation in that junk.
I have rainbow clouds on a character (yeah, wanna fight about it?? :p) and before I get to the first ring it says I failed. But I was able to win it with Jet boots and Power Flight
I know in light of the comments and opinions of some incredibly crass, selfish and trollish people, it may seem regrettable -- but that's two people out of dozens. For those such as myself who are mature enough to understand the impact he had on the game and on the community of his peers, the gesture is more than…
I support this fully. Back in the early days of CO when I was much more active, he and I would talk all the time, share ideas and snark and just have a great time. We played together and I'm fairly certain when we did the retool content with Tumerboy he was there in that group as well. Just the other day I was going…
Cool, thanks. My GF wants one and I'm trying to figure out how much Zen it is worth to burn a bunch of keys to maybe not get one.... Feels like a scam... and as long as I've been playing this game, that's saying something.
Hi Pan is interesting because none of those floating islands are actually solid. I have a pseudo travel power that I can fly with in there and I tried landing on them and just fell through it as if it weren't even there.
And that's the worst part about it.. because the other games are licenses. Cryptic OWNS the Champions IP. Jack Emmert made a huge deal about owning it and being able to do whatever they wanted, however they wanted. Super heroes, comic books and so on are still huge right now and when the next slew of Marvel movies start…
I got banned from the official Star Trek facebook page after Zac Quinto came out of the closet for calling all the gay bashers to the carpet for their verbal abuse.
I got my email the Wed before beta and they said as a lifetimer I was in with no need for the key. 360 controller was not supported at all in beta 2, but I heard of people using other aps to map theirs and say it was a blast. I play CO with the 360 controller and can't even fathom not using it. NW worked better without one…
I bought mine pre-launch and I had fun with it for a while, then took almost 2 years off. My GF started playing and wants one but I'm hesitant to let her throw her money away. Speaking as someone who has one I let her realize in the 4 months she's been playing she's pretty much done everything there is to do in the game.…
Alerts blew my mind when I came back from a 2 year hiatus. I started playing them more when my girlfriend started playing and I felt like an old grandpa by the fireplace explaining how in my day, we'd go out into the world to do missions to level up. In Canada, up hill both ways.
