  • Seconded. And as it often happens in comic book stories when a great hero falls, he now counts on us to take up the mantle and be the best heroes we can be, as he was for us.
  • I sincerely hope he'll make it out ok. In the meantime, we'll make sure that Canada is kept safe until his return, no matter how far in the future. Best wishes to him.
  • "Standard of quality" for a game that is begging to get more attention and instead has more stuff taken away. And I thought I've seen stupid things happen before.
  • Even though I don't use that feature myself, I've seen a lot of people use it. We use it on Dawn Radio so that people can know what song is currently being played. And I haven't seen any Gold Spammers in any chat for years in CO. So what's the big deal ? Feels more like "we don't know what to do with that and prefer to…
  • Underwhelming. Feels too much like another "go there, kill a bunch of mobs" thing, and I couldn't get much involved in the story, though I admit some efforts were put into that with the short cutscenes and voices. I think more cutscenes would help in general to get the players to care about the story a bit more. Long story…
  • Alright, let's do it and pretend that it has nothing to do with the 10th anniversary. Top 10 Moments in Champions Online 1. The passing of Sayako : she was my most popular RP character and when I decided to give her a proper sendoff, we had this RP event with her friends and a little ceremony in the Japanese gardens in…
  • On behalf of Sayako and Teddy-kun : arigato gozaimasu !
  • I don't understand. The FX for Aspect of the Infernal is removed for what reason ? And why are people pleased by it ? It looked kinda cool on those of my characters who used it. Any way to have it back ?
  • As someone who never played the pen & paper Champions game, I'd be really curious to see new characters from the RPG books. I know there is a China superhero team, villains like Ankylosaurus or whatever his name is, and the Star Guardians if I remember the name correctly. Put it into new areas or as secondary arcs to…
  • That's kinda sad to see people leave a game they like so fast just because of some minor issues. Maybe they'll try another time after they can go through the first impression. Unfortunately, the game's current state forces us, as players, to be the ones helping the new people coming in. Yes, that's not our task, but we…
  • Card is done. Check out the link above to see it !
  • Alright, go ahead.
  • I use SMF Funcard Maker 2 which is a French website with templates. It's less complete than programs like Magic Set Editor, but it's good enough for cards that aren't meant to be played, and it's fast. Sure, if you think the picture is good enough.
  • As I did last time, here are some models to go with the Mass Effect theme. Standard Systems Alliance soldier with definitely-not-N7 armor. Notice the work on the right arm side, with the typical banded pattern on the shoulder and bracer parts. Holoforce left bracer figures the Omni-tool. A Geth-inspired alien, made from a…
  • Episode V – Champions Effect Many people compared Mass Effect to Star Wars for what it brings to the space-opera genre, its story, its characters, and its background. Being the first Spectre and saving the galaxy from the Reapers with an elite commando of aliens and humans by your side, it really felt good, right ? Why…
  • Episode IV – enter the dragons In case the news didn't reach you, Iron Fist will make its Netflix debut on March, 17th. This gives me the opportunity to speak a little about a popular costume/lore theme, even outside Champions Online : the martial artists. Obviously, if you are really into martial arts with dynamic…
  • Apparently the same here right now. Game ran normally for a couple of hours tonight, then I suddenly got 4 disconnected-from-server in less than 20 minutes, and after rebooting my PC, the game simply does not start from either Arc or Steam.
  • Finally joining this topic, bringing cuteness and creepiness all in one... Sayako and Teddy-kun ! A few words about the costume itself. I drew inspiration from the classical Ring look : white funeral dress, long dark string hair, pale tone. From there, I worked around to fit the kid body size (which, unfortunately, tends…
  • I like the idea. In fact, I tried (and failed) to motivate some of my previous SG to do something like that, so that we would all play one of the signs. Starting from SG costume as we had it, we would play around the look and colors to fit the theme. At the time, my idea was to divide the signs as such : FIRE Aries = Force…
  • Episode III - this is Halloween (aka Monster Squad 2) After quite a while, and since this is that time of the year, here comes the third part dedicated to classical monsters. We'll get a deep look into some of the best known creatures of the night and how they can become heroes in the world of Champions, despite their…
  • It is as I've told first. No new folder. No picture anywhere on my computer. I've searched the entire C: disk entering the name of my characters's costumes to find them. Nothing. And it doesn't change the fact that I cannot use my old costumes either.
  • To end this episode, here are 4 examples made by me. The Gundam-like. Notice the white body and typical mech fins. I unfortunately don't possess the Variable Robot costume yet, but this is not mandatory. The main color is highlighted with something in the same tone (dark blue=>light green) and the yellow frontal mech horns…
  • COSTUMES & LOOK Basically, every tech part can work, as it already did for the Star Wars theme. The main difference here is that Mechas are robots, so any human part has to be hidden or worked around – unless you want to build a humanoid mech, like the Valsione from Super Robot Taisen. Freedom is the way to go with CO…
  • Episode II - Henshin ! Here it is, my second article about themes. Sorry for the delay. I found an interesting theme that would be nice to talk about. We're still in the Tech part of costuming, though. What is it ? Some clues : Code Geass, Macross, Voltron, Transformers, Mechwarrior, Gundam, Guyver... Yes ladies and…
  • Actually, I just had an answer from the band on Facebook. It seems that piece of music is part of a free music library called Kontact, from where the band got the sample. They had every right to do so, but I'm a little bit disappointed that Cryptic didn't create their own music for Resistance. It still fits as the theme,…
  • I agree 100%. If I may add a few suggestion, many "veterans" players are not that interested in doing the same missions and farm Grab alerts again and again, they just want to create new cool characters. Yeah, we have the new "Upgrades to lv30" in the Z-Store, but isn't there a way to fasten the leveling process for free…
  • COSTUMES AND LOOK There are a LOT of options for great tech costumes, and Star Wars-inspired outfits. You can extend your inspiration sources outside of the movies and animated series, with the artworks found on DeviantArt and other websites. It's rather amazing that despite all the alien species it's inhabited with, the…
  • Up of the topic as I have the same problems that have been told here before, and probably a lot of other players have. How is it possible that the main originality in the whole game (Nemesis) is left rotting to the point where missions can't be finished ? It's been months if not years. Is this how PWE plan to make CO live…
  • Tonight I was bored (as always), so I told myself I'd go for a League of Legends game. Unfortunately, LoL is down. So I told myself I'd go for Champions Online. Unfortunately, CO is down. Are you just ****in serious ? :mad:
  • Holidays are gone, and so I'm back. Not that I was away, but I enjoyed the sun more than Champions Online. The concept today was originally a Dual Blades/Force, Sith-inspired DPS. With me not being a hardcore Star Wars fan, I decided to do a bit of search to see how a Sith-themed hero can be built. In the end, we have a…
  • Nice idea, count me in.
  • Finally I found the time to work on some new builds. Still trying to come with concepts to show, but at least this one looks fine, and I can't wait to test it in game (or, if some people using PBE can try it for me...) Remember my take on FPS with military weapons ? Now the inspiration comes from Street Fighter, Mortal…
  • Looks solid. I would ask Pulsewave for his thoughts though, as he has a better knowing of the Power Armor set. I probably won't do any Power Armor build because of that, his are already good enough for anyone willing to try. I'll try to find some time for other builds however, some nice ideas came to my mind lately and I'd…
  • I'll give it a try asap. I've wanted to build a Plasma hero for ages now, but never really took the time to do it, as I had no concept for it except a Doombot.
  • Allow me to give my humble opinion. With no consideration for pure gameplay (I mean, power synergy and complicated maths), I'd say Heavy Weapons isn't meant to run with Night Warrior. Night Warrior is great for damage burst but not survivability, it's like playing an Assassin in medfan MMO : you sneak behind, kill,…
  • Even Silver players can complain. Champions Online is certainly not the best MMO ever. I didn't get a LTS thinking such a thing. However, it has great potential. It's already the best MMO around when it comes to character customization (it's very, very rare now to find a game where one PC looks like no other). If the team…
  • Caliga. What ? you wanted a full sentence ? the name only is enough to make the sentence, and I risk my life saying it without approval, gimme a break.
  • Thanks for feedback, I'll make sure to think about the modifications I can do. Without further ado, let's take a look at TK Blades. Once again, it is purely DPS. PowerHouse (Link to this build) Name: The Swordfish, Vanguard of Water Archetype: Freeform Super Stats: Level 6: Dexterity (Primary) Level 10: Ego (Secondary)…
  • As much as I enjoy the effort to put some real challenge, you just said everything we need to win this. So, for all the people who don't have anything in this list, they can just completely ignore that stuff. Forcing people to play a certain way is just plain stupid, this is about evolving superheroes, not fighting…
  • Probably the same thing happening to me. Playing in Europe too, no problem so far, then this afternoon I switch on another toon, and suddenly it's hypermegalagfest. Only CO is ****ed up, my Internet works as my other games do.
  • Only one question that may be asked already : - is it possible to separate Travel powers from others, so that we can retcon them without having to go through a full retcon or a heavy amount of gold ?
