i dont see a point in respeccing at all, since nothing has changed to mi knowledge

[/ QUOTE ]Things do change. Just 2 days ago, the entire Dominator AT get a major revamp, with 2 of the power sets playing completely differently now (/Psi isn't limited to 1 attack, and /nrg isn't limited to being a joke). Blasters have seem similar changes (including Assault Rifle), as have a few other ATs (not counting the major game-changing changes like ED and GDN). Plus, with IOs, powers that used to be seen as useless have started to become very useful, for a variety of reasons.

Great, you forced me to find all of them and now I'm scarred for life.

which means that Kheldians in dwarf form and mastermind henchmen are a lot less emotive than they were before.

That explains why I couldn't get my robots to do the robot dance! I figured it was a problem with the < > in the petsayall command (someone somewhere had said something about those not working). Good to know!

I'd question whether the first one is scantily clad, or fully covered... really could go either way.

I'm a DIRL and all the female characters I've built in this game so far have all been very firmly of the armor and cleats school. Why? Because they're "Bob" darned superheros! They get shot at with guns, flamethrowers, nuclear weapons and worse! It's just pragmatic. "Bikini girls with machine guns" might be a fun song but is definitely not something to guide the sartorial decisions of gals who want to be in the super business!


[/ QUOTE ]

Same.

I think the only scantily clad chick I have is one where I used the witch costume choices that came with the magic pack.

[/ QUOTE ]

It depends. If they can slow incoming projectiles to a halt without blkinking, and throw up a repulsion field at the same time to send them back from the direction they came, they don't need much more than a bikini.

[/ QUOTE ]

Assuming they don't get caught off guard.

You could at the very least wear clothing that doesn't make you look like a total goob.

and padding just doesn't seem like it would significantly improve Wonder WOman's survivability.

[/ QUOTE ]That's because she's exploiting anime's bikini law.

I forgot who told me this, but it's one of those Interenet laws: On the internet, the amount of clothes you're wearing is inversely proportional to the frequency with which you'll be hit on.


And that's the reason I've never been to the dance floor in Pocket D on Virtue.

Remember though, placate is single target, the only power that placates more than one power is Smoke Flash which is not auto hit and has a decently long animation time (Phase Shift is much better for this IMO... use it all the time on my Plant/Psi).

You mean this post? It's actually a 20% maximum.


BaBs also made this post, which I suggest you also read.

Oh no! Creativity! SUCH A HORRIBLE THING!


Yeah, I'm gonna go with unique naming being a positive thing in my books

Umm... k.

Not that I disagree... but what brought this on? This thread is a non sequitir.

[/ QUOTE ]

This thread was brought on by a desire for fun. It was my only motivation. I think it will be a fun thread, and it has been already. Besides, after hearing for ten thousand times in the forums that most of the girls are really guys, I wanted to disagree. Most don't seem to be to me, or at least a big percentage don't seem to be.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well experience is all that counts. In my experience its mostly guys trying to rip people off. The ones I have found out to be real women/girls tend to have issues and bring them into the game.

[/ QUOTE ]

A lot of girls won't let on that they're girls in-games due to the treatment they'll receive (or at least the fear of it). Just before I took my last hiatus from the game I had a guy hit on me in-game, which was a seriously creepy experience (far more so than I would have expected).

From my experience on Freedom, most people really don't care in the slightest what gender you are- unfortunately just a few people can greatly over shadow the masses.

[/ QUOTE ]

I've only had one bad experience in COH so far involving what may or may not have been a girl. I've played a lot of MMOs and have had plenty of 'tee hee i'm such a cutie and i'm new pls donate some money' type of crap. In other MMOs this type of behavior gets old fast. I typically just shy away from MMO populations in general. I solo and keep to myself mostly.

[/ QUOTE ]Sounds like a scam to me. Much better than the usual scam of sending a blind tell saying just 'give me money' that I get.

I know several other girls in game and none of them are the 'do it for me, i'm a defenseless girl!' type. Basically, I really don't think gender should be that big of a deal, and I think most people in the game feel the same way, for the most part CoX's playerbase is a rather mature and accepting bunch- but that doesn't mean there's not a handful of people that are quite immature, there's always going to be those kids (and generally, the less of them there are, the louder each one tries to be).

You can probably shorten it a bit by making the substitution straight into the IF statement, but it doesn't help readability. YMMV.

Nothing helps Perl readability.


[/ QUOTE ]There's lots of ways you can improve the readability of perl, such as not using perl!

And why would dated graphic force a CoX2?

Eve Online updated there graphic significantly at one point (raising there min. requirements). They eventually depreciated the classic version and basically required everyone to go to the new engine. Same game, not EVE 2.0.

Changing your entire graphic engine in no way what so ever requires a 2.0 version of your game.

[/ QUOTE ]And Paragon has been updating CoX's engine, piece at a time. There's also a rumor that Going Rogue will include a major overhaul of the graphics engine.

[ QUOTE ]
I don't know either. I only opened this thread because I was so excited to see rogue spelled correctly.

[/ QUOTE ]
The hilarious thing is, it wasn't.

The name was actually supposed to be about several heroes turning into villains (Manticore, States, States' sidekick), so 'Rouge' was thought to be a clever play on words since Villains are generally considered the "red" side... but somebody screwed up and couldn't spell Rouge correctly.

[ QUOTE ]
You can now name your builds!


Great hidden features!

Worst patch notes process in 6 issues!

[/ QUOTE ]This was added last isue, but was bugged when it went live and was corrected in a patch a bit later.

Reminds me of one of the most hilarious moments I've had while playing CoX... I was playing with a female friend I had gotten into the game, and someone came up to her and said they knew she was a guy because her chest slider was raised.


Needless to say, I laughed. A lot. And now I'm laughing again

There's a suspiciously large number of evil versions of Statesman.

[/ QUOTE ]There's at least 3 already in-game.

[/ QUOTE ]

3?

I know of Tyrant and Reichsman, who's the 3rd?

[/ QUOTE ]
Statesman.

[ QUOTE ]
Possibly move the whole game off of opengl and on to direct x so we dont have as many compatibility issues.

[/ QUOTE ]And a million (okay, 25) Mac users cried out in pain.
