  1. And don't forget that accidental "Ooops! I hit the Self-destruct" while moving it and since it doesn't have an INTERRUPT *eh hem*.. Yes, dying isn't that rare.
  2. I also got hit with this unfortunate bug. I also found out that if you accidentally die in the tutorial it punts you to Nova Praetoria... and takes away your chance to choose your faction. (How does this relate to the bug?)

    Well, I accidentally self-destructed on a character I wanted to be resistance. I wound up in Nova, Loyalist... went to reroll to solve this problem (also to change powersets) and lo, I had no slots... including the one I'd just freed up.

    So anyways. There's two bugs for the price of one to be looked at. I'm painfully alt-aholic and would really like my slots back. Also, would have liked the chance to choose my faction after dying in tutorial.
  3. Oh dear, a whole story arc to make me feel like.. "Why did I even bother to do this? Everyone died anyways :C "

    In fact, how about THIS WEEK. Jay built a snazzy new animated tail, and though we were originally planning to release it later as part of a different set, the schedule’s been moved up, and you’ll now have access to it as a bonus in the soon-to-be-released Mutant Pack. Here’s a pic, and (barring any technical glitches) you can start playing with the new tail on the Training Room on Friday, along with the other tails and weapon that missed the last build.

    Cheers,
    David

    I wanted to give you guys a full on thank you for this! I can't express enough how much I appreciate what you guys do to make the community happy! And the hard work you put into things!
  5. Hmm... Thank you David for throwing in some of your feedback. I am still a bit disappointed and perhaps I got my hopes up on Positron's little tease at one of the cons a bit back because I had hoped for canine tails, perhaps upgraded heads, more fur patterns, etc etc, along with all the rest of us.

    That said, I do hope that you are sincere about your statement in considering the beast content for another pack. I DO like these pieces and I think I could use them for all sorts of things, but as others said, it is a bit more of what we already have and deeply disappointing.

    I was actually really reluctant to purchase this based on my disappointment in the fact it wasn't really what I was expecting for this pack. I had also been waiting and waiting on it, like many others. I have many canine characters that have suffered with cat tails for ages. Also, We have enough Demonic horns and things and I feel a lot of this is more of the same.

    I had hopes that you'd get past this hate-on of animal characters. I DO understand the aggravation with the furry community and the reluctance to encourage character creations with them but let's be honest, here. A. There have been werewolves, furries, bestial transformation characters, etc etc, in game, since launch. and B. As said before, not all bestial characters are furries. That said, they are still a subset of mutations. They are also very heavily represented in many heroic/villainous genres.

    Let's just hope that you can follow through and offer a really wonderful pack in the wings that will fill a very large gap that even Champions Online rose to the challenge, met and beat.
  6. As the others said, and this is not a down on these pieces. They are beautiful, no argument there. The Bioluminescent pieces are a thing of wonder. The wings with the bioluminescence are wonderful, too!

    Thing is, though, for wishing to keep up with Champions being on the cutting edge of costume creation. You missed the mark on one of the finer features of their costume creator. I too had hoped for more beast like creature pieces and heads and at the very least wolf tails to go with the not-very wolflike heads we've had for ages.

    For ages we have asked for better animal heads, better animal tails and despite furries/anthros/mutated animals/werewolves, etc being hated, they are still a part of the genre and have been sorely lacking. The ones we have are disappointingly not really what I personally would like for animal type creatures or dragons or anything of that sort.

    The pieces are nice, again, but it seems you were going more for mutated plant or insectoid things which is really nice but I think it would have been nice to have something a bit wider scoped, as well. I would say you've missed the mark on this one. Sadly.
  7. Thank you, once again, War Witch, Positron, Dark Watcher, BaBs, Ocho, Ghost Falcon, Aeon and Television, and so many more that I apologize for forgetting you guys but you guys all deserve my *HUGS* for a game that's given me so much creative freedom! Here's to 6 years!

    My favorite memories?

    Lots of them!

    I remember dancing under Atlas, way back before we had Pocket D and Paragon Dance party.

    I remember Killer Whale breakdancing with his nifty blend of animations!

    I remember struggling for 4 years and getting my first 50 on Taliesen

    I have fond memories of the Cape and all their events..

    and most of all. My friends that I've teamed with and RPed with all this time! *HUGS* the Hamidon Love commune and the Angry Angels SG!

    *Looks at her quickly growing list of characters with all the pistoleers added on, sighs and nods* Yes... yes I do need intervention!

    And I still get 5 months of Dual Pistols before everyone that waits!
  9. Mmmm! Shiny, glowing armor is shiny! You guys at the costume department are really upping the stakes! I LIKE IT!

    Oh and.. shiny new, glowy icon? Thank you, don't mind if I do! *snags, sticks on sig of joy!*

  12. Standing in the shadow of Atlas, a lone figure, lost and broken stood. The wind tossed Taliesen's hair about him, tousled the fur along his bushy tail, but it's caress went unnoticed. He lifted his gaze to the flag atop the city hall, reflecting on the symbolism that rest in it's billowing red, white and blue. He had discovered that while he was a defender of freedom, he could also render one a prisoner, as well. He had struggled with this personal demon ever since he attacked his alternate universe self.

    He had broken the other in body and spirit and in doing so, had broken something in himself. He had taken the dark Taliesen's freedom away. Purpose? Why was he still plugging away at this if he could so easily hurt someone else? Someone who still was willing to forgive him that anger. His security level knocked on the door to true Hero of the City and yet he had lost heart.

    His comm alerted the coming Rikti attacks and once again, the pain and the losses staggeringly so. He had adopted this city that needed him. He cared about it. It was a city that was willing to forgive the dark sided version and give that one a chance to return and also a city that embraced all of the different. He cared. And the call was extended to all able.
    With a quiet nod of renewed purpose, he realized that it was their freedoms, his own, his alternate's freedom, all of the citizens that he fought for.
    he lifted the Comm, his soft voice responding, "Taliesen La'naia, desiring to register for duty!"

    Another part of the city, another Nalron, golden in fur, crouched in a half-kneel on the edge of the war wall. His curiosity intense as he watched the blue shimmering pulses, waiting for them to drop again. He contemplated the message he had recieved, mulling it over and over. It was a big decision for him.

    Justin Fletcher feared the Rikti but he wasn't about to let them beat him ever again. His future depended on his bravery. He owed it to his father laying in the Chiron hospital recovering from a back-breaking attack. He was a future echo of proof that the dark Taliesen had good in him and he was determined to live up to his father's example.
    Rising from the wall, he dove, letting flames lick around himself as he soared downward towards Talos' center, grabbing his comm as he did so, in his daredevil-ish way. "Codename: Argent Force, reporting for Star Striders. I'm ready for any assignment."
