Wait, what? Are you saying you got nothing else from being subscribed for those few months? This program was an incentive to maintain a subscription for people who were already inclined to but wavering a little, not a reason unto itself. If it was for you, you have some messed up priorities and should stop projecting your values onto everyone else.
Sheesh.Sadly I think that you are both missing my point.Quote:Originally Posted by Xzero45
That makes zero sense. You didn't spend that much money on these items. You spent that much money on complete access to this game, including free points every month. You will be rewarded with free items for maintaining said subscription.
To those that didn't subscribe, or happened to of missed this period of loyalty, they should be allowed to spend extra money on purchasing these items in the market.
If the items are offered as an incentive to remain a loyal customer (and no I didn't subscribe just to obtain them) then what benefit do loyal customers get if the items are then offered to all a much lower cost? Basically it negates the whole idea of it being a Loyalty Reward, doesn't it? They may as well have not offered it in the first place? -

There's precedent in the Vanguard Pack/MVAS/Vanguard Costume Change that were from the first Loyalty Program, with the Account-wide Badge and Chest Detail not being offered in the Paragon Market.
So as a loyal VIP subscriber, I'm not really being rewarded as I could purchase the items later in a much less expensive way...hmmmm
Personally it doesn't bother me if everyone has the items, it's just the principle. -
Quote:Actually I disagree that there are free, as they have been earnt, this is my point about loyalty rewards.Originally Posted by Xzero45
Those you kept their subs get it for free. Everyone else would have to pay extra to get those items, and they won't be included to the market for a few months later anyway. Exactly how the Vanguard pack was.
And as for putting the items on the market, if it was bundled as a set and priced at the equivalent of $59.96 it would have my full support. -
As much as I understand the feelings of players who subscriptions lapsed etc. I can't see the point of having a Loyalty Reward if the items are then made available to all.

If I recall it's for VIP's with an active subscription from December 1st 2011 to March 31st 2012

While I'm not against the idea, I believe that moderation may be an issue if all the forums were opened up to Freedom.

Another month and again all great work

As I recall, wasn't Quetzalcoatl more of a "benevolent" deity? If such is the case and it is marked to return, then it could be a good thing.
Presuming that said deity exists at all of course. Call me understandably skeptical. -
Quote:Indeed and of course (back to the OP) it begs the question how could they possibly have obtained that knowledge...Originally Posted by Innovator
Pretty much. Or you could also think of it this way, the Mayans were sophisticated enough to predict when the alignment of the Earth and Sun to the center of the universe (which they called Hunab-Ku) had last happened and when it was slated to occur again.

With the way that so many people are freaking out about the latest doomsday prophecy, I can't help but wonder if a future end-of-the-world prediction will end up being self-fulfilling: a lot of people panic, they mess everything up, and life as we know it is ruined.
Interesting, so depending on your mind set, the date could mark either - nothing (as it's just a myth), the return of an actual god, the return of a giant feathered serpent or the return of extraterrestrials?Quote:Originally Posted by Innovator
Some new artifacts suggest that the beginning of the long count and the end marks the when Quetzalcoatl was believed to have come to the Mayans and when he's marked to return. It's not an end of the world prophecy per say, but it is a prophecy of something. -
I must admit I do find the doomsday theories a bit over the top, the date is simply the time the long count calander enters the next age or b'ak'tun, any interpretation of a cataclysm or a so called "new age for human consciousness" is pure speculation, despite what is depicted by the media I'm pretty sure that the Mayans didn't make any actual prophecy.
So we should be ok for staff fighting

I suspect that the video is a well timed hoax mostly because of the documentary being released later this year, the video reportedly has nothing to to with the documentary in question.

I'll attempt to expand upon my original reply to your OP.
This will possibly be too much development for too little potential reward, I suspect Paragon Studios' would rather focus on Paragon Market items etc. to generate revenue.
Your idea seems clumsily constructed in terms of how the mechanic would actually work and be communicated to players.
VIP content should be for VIP players, once you start eroding the exclusivity even in a small way, you run this risk or perhaps losing more subscribers than you may gain. People who have been paying for this game for years will agree with me on this point I'm sure.
Your arguement is flawed In my opinion as this will not really encourage people to become subscribers as surely trying out some of the game for free should be sufficient.
I suspect that if this were put in place most people would just use it for what it is a freebie and that in reality the uptake would be pretty small if not almost non-existent. So in terms of your post more "FREE" than "TRY". -
/unsigned
VIP content should be exculsive to erm...VIP's don't you think? Doing something like this risks annoying a long term customer base. Plus as said above too much work for potential little reward. -
They are all great, choosing three is just getting harder - BAH!
But if I must...
1 - Leaf-nin I just love understated pieces like this
2 - Furry_Jackal this isn't the kinda thing I usually like, but loved the composition and the textures (the flag in particular)
3 - MasterElemental1 I just love the idea behind this picture -

You'd think people would learn from past failures and drop the in game advertising suggestions.
So what's next when this fails? Having product placement on the characters themselves?
Do. Not. Want. -
I suspect that the Hulk won't say too much in the movie, at least I doubt it will be more than a few words. If that turns out to be true then the voice choice isn't that important so why not have a nostalgic touch.
I'm still not sure about Ruffalo but hopefully he'll be ok, I wasn't a fan of Bana but I thought Norton was OK. Pretty sure I read somewhere that Whedon wanted a "fresh start" for the Hulk and for Banner they were using Bill Bixby's portrayal as inspiration. -

I know this may be asking way too much of you NH, but was wondering if you'd be able to do another pic. Totally understandable if you can't, and it's the same toon, just in his armor and using powers.

He's a fire/ice tank(and also an ice/fire dom) mutant
My thanks for thinking of me, but as I've said previously this isn't my thread. I've enjoyed doing the requests recently, it's good practice and I really appreciate the great responses posted on here. But unfortunately I'm pretty busy right now and with the usual RL stuff also, so I prob won't be doing any more requests for a while.
Still hopefully someone else will step up and no doubt I'll pitch again at some stage

Very nice, some of us do them and some pages in-between

Always been a fan of Doc Delilah myself. But then, she's basically She-Hulk, if She-Hulk were a female Indiana Jones instead of an attorney.

Beats me why they don't go with a general concept, such as an aquatic based pack, perhaps develop a powerset maybe something like water control (again I'm being very general here). Release the powerset and at the same time release the pack, or maybe a 'special edition' pack with both. Surely demand would be high?
A current example would be up-coming Beast Mastery, while not release some more animal related costume parts when that is released - surely demand would be highest at that time? -

Hey guys! Was looking at this thread and seeing some awesome stuff! If anyone wants to, it would be much appreciated if someone could take a stab at this character

Looking for something I can use as a CoH Login Screen texture if possible.
Thanks in advance to whoever does this! If you need additional details about the toon, feel free to PM me.
