    News.

    Good idea. No clue if it is easily done though but still.

    /signed.
  2. With SJ you can travel with a bit of practice most heights. But for some (think cap au diablo or the entrance to terra volta) you will have to find workarounds as you just lack the power to get on top even if fully slotted.

    Now for a power that is faster traveling then flight is something i can live with. For some cases flight is better.

    So I am not signing this one.
  3. I dislike this feature very much. This feels as bad to me as bying influence or levels. This also starting to sound as if you have to spend money to get updates. This gives me a bad taste.

    I pay every month to play this game. I do not want to be forced to buy extra stuff.

    Pointlessness

    actually there are badges to be earned with the steel canyon fire. However it is hard to do and requires a few people to help you out.

    Also see:
    Fire Chief
    Fire Fighter
    Volunteer fire fighting

    But i like ideas to mae the zones more interesting, even if they are just pointless.
  5. I am not in favour for more pets in this game without sacrificing something for the privelege of having a powerful buddy with you.

    Socketed items in WoW/Diablo?

    I can see the advantages of going down the itemization route... I play WoW, but its one of the nice things about CoH, I don't need the armour of uberness +666 to play.

    But you need those rare IO's for your normal enhancements anyway. So I don't see the problem with that. Remember this would be an enhancement for a costume slot not the costume itself.

    Off topic as well

    Lol thats a good story. I will remember that one for the next Jehova brave enough to knock on my door.


    On Topic:
    Today's and yesterdays and the days before that has used religion to do horrible things. Think about the inquisition, suicide bombers, mass killings, the crusades and other holy wars.

    Problem is that they do this partially at least with the idea that their deity wants them to do this. Bigger problem is that a lot of normal people also believe in that same deity. I can understand how that could hurt.

    The normal villainy stuff is more black and white. [censored] a purse and you are a villian. Religion is more of a grey thing because it is less clear cut. One might say yes it is wrong to hurt people but his motives were pure. And before you know it the flame wars start. Nobody bothers to start flame wars over some purse thief.
  8. Okay I believe you on that account.

    I wouldn't mind if raising an epic to lvl would unlock the orher epic AT. However I can see the merit in rewarding someone who has bothered to live the normal hero/villain to its fullest potentional. I think it makes for a better gaming experience.
  9. I would think that this would incite thieves even more as prestige is harder to get then inf.
  10. You sure that you dont get a HEAT AND VEAT when you get a lvl 50 hero or villain these days?
  11. Yup love the idea. Especially when they use the techniques as they did for the Rikti invasions.
  12. Well there is the lipstick with interesting chemicals like aphrodisiacs.

    No I was thinking more of a few slots per full costume. Not just the lipstick but the whole thing. And of course every costume having its own enhancements.

    I shudder to think about a 'christian' villain dominator with the misguided idea that burning down everything is a good religious idea or a cross wielding preacher mastermind with his band of thugs and I know that would cause trouble.

    While mature people could enjoy such a thing. It would invariably hurt some peoples feelings. Religion has fueled more then enough bitter conflicts in our history. Not a good idea unless they invent a whole new set of religion that doesnt offend anyone.
  14. Random Flypose annimation when you go flying. For those of us who like a little variety without the bother of using the /flypose command for short hops.

    Improved deathscenes for us player. There are so many good animated deathscenes. I would love to see that we players get more then the two animations we got now.
  15. I understand and agree with the lets avoid the same look syndrome. Even though I like the idea of vanguard clad heroes beating up rikti or Roman clad heroes beating up Romulus. But apart from a few exceptions I like to have everyone look diferent.

    Therefore my idea was to slot them just like you slot a power. Problem with look alike solved. Game mechanics nice and familiar. But with the added benefit of having a costume set tailor fitted to a specific purpose.

    Would the naysayers still be so firm on their vote if they implemented it like this?
  16. I would give such a set a definetely try.

    Most Wanted List

    More MM sets.

    I like the idea of the puppetry. Creepy evil grinning puppets mayhem.

    How about a MM (epic) set. One where you control the arachnos grunts? It would require some fiddling not to mess up with the current widows and soldiers of course. But I like the idea.
  18. First of I think this idea has merit. The idea of donning a special outfit for the occasion is a nice one.

    Two things though,

    I don't think the bonusses should be very big. It should be enough to bother using them but not something you need to do to. Remember with 5 costume slots this could mean that the player has 5 customized sets ready for swapping around.

    I do have some concern about players going to look alike. After all if there is one uber PvP set then everyone who is bothering to PvP will look the same.

    I would suggest that you can enhance the costume set instead of having the costume set give bonusses from itself.This way you can avoid the we all look the same syndrome. For specific costume purpose sets. Things like Vanguard and the Roman costume set. You could give those special recipes designed to combat the enemies of choice the set was designed for. In these cases Rikti and Roman swordwielding maniacs.
  19. This problem is extra fun when it appears on a TF. Especially in one of the final missions. No easy resetting a mission there without wasting hours of effort.

    Best thing would be to have a button to finish the mission regardless of one or to mobs unaccounted for. Perhaps at the cost of the mission bonus.
  20. Despite the fact that a lot o this has been asked before. There are two things I would love to sign to.

    The flightpose animation. We got a few flightposes but we always start with the default one. Sure we can cnange the way we fly with a bind or a command. But I would love to see a random flightpose each time we fly.

    Another thing is with SuperJump. It is great fun but it lacks one thing. A continual jump option. For long distane travel it would be nice if you just press one button and you keep jumping until you hit another button. Just as the R from run.

    Two small things that imo would improve the Game Quality a tiny bit.
  21. Well I got it working more or less now. Thanks for the assistance.

    (I got an answer from GhostRaptor, now I am a real forum person, wheeee )
  22. Thanks for the aditional info valkryst. I needed to do this on my low level char to unlock Slot Machine. Which i have done by now. The bind was surely a great help. (So was the assistance of another few players to hunt with) They know better now to leave me alone and i can go gambling.

  23. ok resetted my keybinds. Didnt work. I can rotate camera with the scroll button where i always could do this with the right key. The right key is much more preferable imo.So how to get that one back?
  24. Well that seems to be a good one. Thanks I will try it out so no capo will ever feel secure!
