  • Welcome dev Arashi! Now, how about that freckles overlay..? Another idea I had (literally while I was typing, and I am sure it would be a beast to get working) would be a slider for position of things like emblems, maybe even a scale-slider too?
  • If you didn’t love it, you wouldn’t be here! Keeps you on your toes!
  • There used to be an end-of-the-year shop, but with event currency now expiring in a couple of months after, it will sadly no longer be the case that you can hold onto it until that time. Some event vendors used to be found in the Recognition center, but not all of them, and I don't know if they have/will be removed. On the…
  • Stopped reading there and skimmed the rest. Unless you're less that 12, there is no excuse to be disrespectful and obnoxious. Kaiserin is an employee. They do what the bean-counters and managers tell them to. Builds change all the time. Things get adjusted, powers nerfed/improved/radically altered as the game evolves. CO…
  • I disagree. Not entirely, but largely. When I was a new player, admittedly subscribed, but with only those costumes unlocked by the sub., I won a couple of CCs over the year that I played before going LTS. And some of the unlocked costumes weren't the fits they might have first seemed for the themes. I don't deny that…
  • I'm entering my character Aiko (the one that my avatar is based on), and I am using approximately one plant/wood costume part — and that's for one hand. It could easily be done with a skeletal hand instead, but I was lucky enough to get the plant limbs a couple of years back. The rest of her costume has no relation to any…
  • Modern Witchcraft Skirt still doesn't have cloth material{/i}
  • While I absolutely agree with the idea of including a weapon-scale adjustment… I also don't see any problem with oversized weapons. Heck, it's why I make some of my characters have big hands, just so they can have a big weapon. But yes, a weapon-scale adjustment of some kind would be useful.
  • Isn't this what the majority of RP SGs tend to be be anyway? I'm not dismissing your theme in the slightest, as it's ironically refreshing to see someone wanting to create an SG that calls back to the golden age of superheroes, and less to the dark and depressing side of some of the more modern interpretations (although…
  • I second this request. I'd third it too, but that would be silly, so I'll let someone else do that.
  • Is your character in the correct build setting for the passive to work? For example, the Regeneration passive can only be active if you are running in Defensive (Tank) or Passive (Hybrid) modes. Otherwise, it'll not be available.
  • Updates to materials? Adjustments to mounting points? Corrections to materials names and settings? Additional emblems that were missing from certain things, like cloaks, etc.? A SECOND BACK costume-part slot??? (We can but hop on that last one…) But would be nice to know what that update was, Kaiserin.
  • What, you don't like your game-currency list to fill up and look like you're rich? I wonder if, as some of the currencies now expire 30 days after an event ends, we'll not be seeing last-chance vendors during the Xmas period where we were able to spend our loose change.
  • Sapphiechu's Guide to Handing In Missions Without Talking to the Mission-Giver 1. Go to your minimap and poke the SOCRATES button. 2. Select 'Search for Emergencies'. 3. Scroll down to the NPC you need to hand in the mission (In this case, MCPD Chief Surhoff) I didn't know this shortcut for years, so it's not a surprise it…
  • The Drifter salvage cost is reduced according to how many times you've completed the associated missions. You do no missions in the set, it'll be full price. You do 5/10, it'll be half price in Drifter salvage. The lock boxes ARE somewhat problematic, but considering the EU and China (China now being the BIGGEST gaming…
  • They do happen, but it's usually something that is only advertised almost at the last minute. Considering Embracer are firing anything with a pulse atm, it's entirely possible that Cryptic has been told to hold off on any future sales for a while.
  • IT'S MAGIC!!!
  • Welcome to the LTS Master Race! (Closely related to keyboard-and-mouse master race, adjacent to tea-before-coffee master race, and a few doors down from PC master race)
  • Some people like collecting action figures… Not everyone likes the same things, or dislikes the same things. We always get a fresh influx of new players that do not have these action figures, and considering the theme of the game, AFs actually make a lot of sense.
  • From what I understand, ground vehicles are basically impossible in the engine. I'm sure you've noticed the wheelie-pulling vehicles as they approach the top of the ramps between Westside and the road around the Renaissance Center. That would be how a vehicle would behave even under the control of a player. You can…
  • I've never known Cryptic to announce any events other than the Developer Costume Contests more than maybe a day in advance. Stay tuned to the news section of the site and you'll doubtless find out when everyone else does.
  • I was right there with you, but at the same time, how is he supposed to know any of these things when it's not clearly marked or even gated? I don't know if he did any Alerts. Did he ever actually block? Compared to a lot of other games made at the same time, CO does at least have functional block mechanics, along with…
  • I second this! MOAR JETS, ALL THE JETTING TIME!
  • With Josh Strife Hayes, one of the things he considers important is the accessibility the game has from the point of view of a new player. There is very little chance that a brand new player is going to immediately throw down – what is it now, $25.00? – on a freeform slot when they don't know the mechanics of the game and…
  • I'm going to throw my hat into the ring for ideas, here, sgtken60. For earning money, I have always considered the game-currency rewards we get as part of the missions and alerts as a PRIMUS-sponsored bounty mechanism. It would probably be tied into a person's ASPRA registration, which grants heroes the ability to retain a…
  • It is certainly a dopey move on Cryptic's part. Almost like they don't want lifetime subs…
  • Maybe they're different Detective Shoes? Weren't the first set Detective Boots? With an open top and untied laces?
  • Only if someone else holds a higher ranking and/or can demote that leader.
  • In 7 Days to Die, there's a mod that adds a Shark Blimp vehicle... so a Flying Shark, complete with wagging tail and perhaps a small tornado that appears when the sprint boost is used - basically a Sharknado homage.
  • No flack from me. I'd be interested to know as well.
  • The benefit of these emotes is that they are relatively high RNG, so get five of each, spread them around five toons, and POW you've unlocked them on all your characters!
  • Cancelling the daily when some people are almost ready to claim it, or half-way through the set is monumentally unfair! I think this requires a rethink, or even a freebie unlock for every account in the game.
  • This is actually a pretty good idea!
  • A sad loss to the industry and to Champions.
  • If you follow this link: https://account.arcgames.com/en/supportredirect/app/home/?game=co You can get to their online support system.
  • Don't you mean give it a week for the Christmas spirits to get into you? =)
  • Now THIS is a respectful nod to our dear, departed friend. Thank you, Cryptic!
  • I just had a thought when I spotted the Gearbox Publishing logo in the corner of the launcher window: Does this now mean that Gearbox owns the Champions IP, or does it still fall under the control of Perfect World Entertainment?
  • Isn't the important thing that the bugs ARE usually fixed eventually?
  • No Statues! From Thundrax's own PRIMUS Database Entry: An Action Figure. Maybe a billboard. Some ideas for him to be used to hand out certain missions, or even function as a sidekick are excellent ideas. A living Thundrax, to commemorate that he was larger than life.
  • I think there's already a Thundrax AF. Might be in the Dev Vendor. Maybe push it out to the Questionite store instead so everyone can have their own little 'Drax to remember him by?
  • The best way to remember this titan of our community is to remind ourselves of just how seriously he took the game, and his roleplaying. I am sad to have never had the chance to do more than give a few acknowledgements between my characters and his in the years I've been playing and roleplaying Champions Online. Rest easy,…
  • I believe that unless it says otherwise, Dev-unlocks are account wide. Might need to check on that, though.
  • People that leave the arena if the cut-scene starts because some people don't know, or remember, that there's a means to skip, are butt-heads. Maybe other players could be kind enough to inform them, but remember that some new players might WANT to see the cut-scene. That is all I have to say about that.
  • The first rule of comic books: no dead villains stay dead, especially the entertaining ones.
  • Thanks, Kaiserin! Looking after us rabid fans as always. <3 :)
  • Step ONE of ONE to make your computer life better: REMOVE MCAFEE ANTI-VIRUS! Honestly, it's the single worst example of antivirus software around. You're better off just making sure you keep your Windows up-to-date, and keep Windows Defender running. If you HAVE to get an antivirus, get something like Avast. McAfee has…
  • The News page for the latest Defender event reads that it ends tomorrow, 3/15, rather than Thursday, 3/17. Is this a change, or a typo on Kael's part?
