We have ways of making zem speak o.o

Woot! I love this game

Welcome Manticore, it's nice to see you back, I thought perhaps Medusa had cast a spell on you, never heard from ya.

However, maybe someone, or even Manti can clear this up. I read that he's happy to be more involved, does that mean those were not his story lines we've been reading? :<

Happy birthday Terra

Alright, after taking a nap and having a nightmare about star destroyers then going to work, I have returned with a clear head and less Nyquill o.o

Now, here's my voice o.o


I've lived a great while of my adult life with technology, MMO's, starting from EQ to COH to TR. I've fought in both Sony Wars in SWG, I've retreated when we were in danger of occupation and the gates fell in Vanguard and King McQuid sold us to Sony after launch. I've seen DDO's failed attempts at a game, and then how the game devs decided that pvp was a good idea to fix things o.- How SWG became BH Vs Jedi. Watched as my profession of three and a half years was nerfed into a simple munition dealer, from Master Armorsmith (I was good too :P).

What have I learned from this? Game companies lie. They lie to get your money and they don't care one IOTA about you, your emotions, how much time you invested, your friends, ANYONE. Because they are a business and businessmen get PAID

However....

In all my experiances with online games, this is by far the best, playwise, community wise, support wise and that hometown feeling wise. Never would a dev talk to me in a PM or in game in my other games. Positron actually gives me the time of day, War Witch laughed at me when i asked her out, Manticore actually read what I had to say....perhaps I'm offtrack..

ahem.

My point being is that TRUST is a hard thing for me to give anyone. I, however, trust this company with my money. I tend to pop smoke and leave when i see soe/bad things coming, or even the hint of it.

Not now. I've worked too hard and too long to let my character dissolve AGAIN into the protoplasm that is a database server.

So, Lighthouse, Ex, Posi, BAB, Jay( who is smexy apparently), everyone, Count on this Captain Amazing, despite not having the proper name, on being there each month with his accounts up and running > I'll be here until the bitter end. <nods>

<salute>

-Captain Amazing

You know the bad things that happen in acquisitions, and the good things, and the ugly things, all add up in the end.

I ponder if this isn't a move becuase of the rights to Marvel

"Muhahaha, a real comic book game! Here you take this..."

o.-

I fear change yes,but I welcome it as well, my only concern is that they will start favoring the upper ten percent like alot of games do o.-

Thank god it wasn't sony <faints>

No Halloween on Virtue =/

A Barrel roll is the best star, I don't know how many times I have wanted to do it in flight :<

But whats a mudoor!? <cries>

We now need a way for MA to look cooler, like throwing people o.o You can bind it to a KB command and such, throwing someone animation over them falling animation!

No! Rocket packs we need jet packs! :O

or jetpacks, I need a jet pack, not a big 1950's version from a level 5 SG mission. I want a sleek awesome pretty jet pack! thats not going to turn off!

Since we've got new weapon options, are we getting sheaths and holsters as costume options as well?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah whatever happened to quivers? Or dual guns?

First of all, this post is a "quick reply" and is not in response to anything that the person it says I'm replying to may or may not have said.

This is to all those that now or in the future go "OMG THIS SUXX0RS!!! I'm CANCELLING MY ACCOUNT!""

Just leave. Now. Don't tell us you are leaving, don't tell us why you are leaving, we don't care and odds are neither do the developers. Until you actually don't pay them, you are just threatening them trying to get them to do things YOUR way instead of the way they are doing it. It didn't work in Ultima Online, Everquest, Everquest II, World of Warcraft, or any other MMORPGs. Threatening to cancel your account isn't the way to get the developers to listen, it's not the way to get ANYONE to listen to you.

So, do your fellow players a favor, and don't waste our bandwidth having to load up your "OMG IM QUITTING" crap, just quit and don't waste OUR time.

Going back and doing missions and badges you need is definately cool, however I'm hoping, and maybe putting to much in the stock of the newspaper articles and this statement below:

Ouroboros System: Gain the ability to "Flashback" and travel through time and relive major events from the history of Paragon City and the rogue Isles.

That maybe we can travel back in time, to the past when the city was different, like a mission to the old Faultline or maybe Brickstown with 5th Column standing on the street corners instead of Council. Doubt it though. Of course I'm assuming these would be outdoor missions only kindof thing.

Also still hoping for Baseball Bat for my Mace Tanker

I bet thats how the 5th comes back! Through time travel missions! Woot!

Hooray for just about everything, EXCEPT...

Oh, dear god, please, not MORE of those execrable cutscenes!!!

Please, please, please, NO MORE CUTSCENES!

The animation is lame, the dialogue is insufferably awful and the interruption is incredibly aggravating... it's like getting stuck watching commercial TV before TiVo!

But the "acting" is... is... oh, lord, it's just the WORST DIALOGUE EVER... "But Bossssssssss... what about usssssss Ssssnakesssss and our dissssabling lissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssps?"

And it all goes downhill from there.

Please, please, PLEASE, give us the option to disable cutscenes!

STOP THE LAMENESS!!!

Well, weapon customization is nice... but it's still not really any content for my 7 lvl 50's.

No thanks... both accounts are cancelled in 2 days.

[/ QUOTE ]

You missed the fact the in the Feature announcement that there were details of brand new missions. But I doubt that matters to you. Bye!

[/ QUOTE ]

And good riddance We don't need naysayers, not when the future is before us! Or the past! Or...erm..nevermind!

Yeah lets hear it for reskinned invulnerability and claws. God forbid they do some extra work and put in something cool like shields.

[/ QUOTE ]

You'd look at the dark side of a cure for the common cold! :P Posi already said they are deep into programming the shield power, it's the most complicated one they have done yet and it's taking a bit. But it's on the way so BLAH! :P

gripe and moan! New power sets are new power sets! Animations, and you can't step on BAB for doing all that work because YOU don't like the way they look. I for one am looking forward to them! You want light sabers, go to SWG! I hear they are so bad they are giving them away ^_~ Flames? Go play WoW, I hear thats the bandwagon.

[/ QUOTE ]

Go play another game because I was hoping for something a little more imaginative?

I can just imagine there conversation goes like this.
Developer 1. Lets give them something new.
Developer 2. How about a sword
Developer 1. No did that twice already.
Developer 2. How about 2 swords.
Developer 1. Great Idea.

[/ QUOTE ]

I doubt it was that simple.

I'd like to see ANY of you, step forward and make a better powerset o.o

Imagine this.

You are a Rad/Rad Defender. You run CoX. Now, people are, besides wondering how a Rad/Rad Defender can solo in RV, they are wanting more power sets. You make a poll. You follow the poll because listening to your people is better then telling them whats good for them, like SoE did with The NGE o.0

Now you take the winning power sets and from there you give them to your staff and say: "Lets go to work!"

Now you not only have many decisions to make as far as style, which, as you know as a dev you will never satisfy everyone, so you go with the majority, and try not to listen to just pvpers or just the upper ten percent, or whatever.

You pour your heart, your staffs heart and your own life into the power sets, making them from scratch persay. Now you show the word "Look what I have done!"

And the first thing the world says is basically "I could do better! Give us light sabers, or punch blades, or something kewl!"

Now how would that make you feel? :<
