  1. Using Global tells is the best way to GMs to reply imo, it tells them if your online or not, and you get the message even if hidden (something I imagine GMs can see thru) and also means that if u get told in email they tried to contact you in game, you get a time stamp saying when.

    Names

    Pedantics never gets you anywhere. The inventions already make perfect sense the way they are named.

    Chanign "Fly" to "Flight Speed" is the last thing you need to consider renaming when you have DOs and SOs with less helpful names.

    Claws for Brutes

    More Proliferation!

    More proliferation is good.

    Claws on a brute could/would play totally different to claws on scrapper and stalker, like they play differently form one another.

    So yey for using the same stuff differently! versitility for the win!

    As far as I know, all the issues where a recipe said Acc/Dam/Range, and meant Acc/Dam/Rech etc have been fixed for a while now.

    So all Recipes should make exactly what they say on the tin
  6. Go and do the ITF with controllers

    Watch how useless they feel as the enemies become impossible to CC,

    thats what you want to do to an entire AT?


    go away please and leave my controllers alone!
  7. My Friend recently used this to address whomever in a big facebook message we had going round.

    Found it odd, but quickly jumped on board, thought it was amusing.
  8. If its got Stan Bush's name on it...
  9. ive doen it in a 1:56 before, and likewise ive been there for a 3:30+ with no hope of finishing.
  10. You missed out the excelent advice to slot Flash from Illusion Control for damage.
  11. Comic Books dont have to worry about balance

    the game does

    Level up an easy set choice up to 50, then switch to something harder/better farming/more useful for a situaiton your aiming for.
  12. But nobody ever takes Repel...

  13. I would sign for TF only.

    But then I think kicking on a TF should be vote only too.

    But yeah ive had a TF leader go "AFK" for a few, and its annoying.

    Heck, wudnt be half as bad if anybody could pick up the next mission on a Task Force.

    Unfortunatly the physics objects are client side, not server side, so a ball might be in one place for one player, and somewhere quite different for another player, and a player with physics turned off would have no ball at all.

    why would an american game, set in an american city allow you to spawn what we know as a football.

    Its not like the americans are any good with one to be a reason to put one into the gaem. mind its not like the english are very good with one either
  16. Coolest backpiece or capes, well i wonder which one i would rather have?
  17. i'm curious/worried how you know the sound of a base ball bat hitting someone on the head?
  18. it kind of is if they are mindless robots with no soul or life to them.

    Unfortunately, with that single, poorly thought out 'joke', this thread has, for me, lost any prospect of being taken seriously, because if you were 'joking' about that, I have to assume that you were 'joking' about the rest of your suggestions as well.

    Lets face it, given who started the topic it was already miles gone.

    As far as embedded post images, it will never happen, its far too open for abuse, posting images above the age limit of the game of any nature, or indeed illegal in nature would be far too easy, and, as has been proved in the past "weekend offtopics" tend to las tthe whole weekend, so one person posting an obscene picture friday evening could not get cleared up till much later.

    How is that any different to somebody posting a link to an off site hosted image? well

    1) you have to click the link, if it looks dodgy of w/e you have the option to avoid it

    2) if you can embed an image in these forums, it means you have uploaded the iamge here, and its being hosted by CoH, hosting an illegal image like could be submitted could bring a whole new sect of legal ramifications to NCSoft, regardless of the fact it was one of us that uploaded it.

    Sure, the vast majority of people would use it for sensible purposes, but pretty soon every freakin topic would be filled with those grotesquely annoying "ROFL Cat" things. I just wudnt be able to tolerate it.
  20. The bomb dissapearing from AS is weird, different to the heavies dissapaearing. It seems that ASing a bomb will make it drop from the top of the screen. since it seems to take a chunk of faling damage. Tho that requires further investigation
  21. Siphon Speed makes Hover a Ghetto Travel Power, however on its own its a Ghetto Travel Power

    coupled with Inertia Reduciton, I fail to see the need, I would much more reconmend Leaping and Speed pools for _Spirits points

    As for the suggestion itself: I really can't think of many concepts where male-to-female body type changes would be needed. Male-to-Huge, or to a lesser extent, Female-to-Huge yes... but not so much swapping between the sexes. Perhaps just port some costume items over for males and vice versa - it wouldn't, I wouldn't think, require so much coding. (Bearing in mind, contacts will refer to you as male or female - if your character is both... I'm not sure, I'm not a dev).

    [/ QUOTE ]

    as has been mentioned by myself and one other Ranma 1/2, quircjy origin story, true enough doesnt lend to the characters actual power.

    If you dont know about it, basic synopsis is a young naturally powerful martial artist. who, after falling in a magic well finds himself turning into a girl when touching cold water, and back into a boy when touching hot.

    Its a quircky concept, but its one of many different ways a player of this game could choose to conceptualise their change. Just because you cant think of one, doesnt mena there isnt one.

    Also I should note that having spent 7 Years of my life (which curiously enough was from 12 to about 19 or so) fighting for Lesbian [censored] Bisexual and Transgendered equality (including representation) I really cudnt care if its represented in a game or not.

    The whole discussion on Transgenderism skirts around that the request is simply for a more dynamic second costume slot in regards to what can be changed, and like i said in my initial post, the "Where does LGBT representation fit into modern media" debate is not something we should have here.

    I could quote various sections of your post, and others, and make valid arguemnts against your points, and I'm equally open to the same, however I don't want to, atleast not here, its really taking this request off topic, so i'll settle with a nice concise

    I think this, and other body changing options between slots is a good, worthwhile suggestion, and many inventive players will find a way in which to conceptualise these options.
  23. Ill/kin
    ill/Storm
    Grav/Storm
    Grav/FF
    Fire/Thermal
    Plant/Thermal
    Earth/Rad
    Ice/Rad
    Fire/Kin - is on my to do list, so i can figure out the hype

    Was CoH an age 12 rated game? Or soemthing... anyway, i think because there could be players of a young age playing, the idea of trans-gender characters is a bit... well let's say it's more mature content. Does that sound reasonable to people?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Many many many many (many xalot) Young people realise feelings of transgenderism at an extremely young age, true enough modern society does its best to supress these concepts in them, for the most part, but still, chances are by the age of 12 a young person in todays modern world will be loosely aware of the concept, and somebody who genderidentifies as the other gender to their unassigned one will be desperate for an outlet where their feelings and desires are expressed in a socially acceptable manner.

    No offence, but closed midned views like "transgenderism" should be kept as an adult topic causes more and more kids harm than it will ever do good for, ofc this topic isnt one for discussion in this segment of the boards, so i'll leave it ihere.

    want examples from comic books?

    Hulk, as mentioned Man > Huge
    Ranma, as mentioned has Male>Female
    and also has Male > Huge
    Justice Leage (Jean): "Male"> Anything

    I think its a perfectly acceptable cocnept to want something like this, the limitations of the costume designer atm, where you can barely change hieght, but a dampener on any minor shapeshifting abilities someone might want to play. I've had many characters where a Male>Huge transition or back would have been a joy to use in their costumes. and I would atleast make 1 Ranma homage for Male > Female.
