Jörmungandr, that was the name. Not quite sure where I got Niddhog from (other than the same mythos)

Quote:Ugh, that sounds boring as all hell. Not to mention it entirely misses the entire point of Malta.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Personally, I really like how Crey are nothing but power armour and Paragon Protectors post 45. It shows that this is now the big leagues where guys with guns really shouldn't be so potent. I'd love to see Malta reduced to just Titans and other kinds of super-human toys. Yes, the Tanks are a pain in the *** from a gameplay standpoint, but I REALLY like how they're the only enemies left. Not an unarmoured man in sight.

Not the mods, though, since I'm not convinced they actually have souls.
On topic; yeah, I'd like for Kheldians (and everyone, actually) to have access to a sash of some kind.
And, while we're on the Kheld topic, can we not get the PB/WS eye auras from the powers as an all the time aura? Sunstorm and the others have them, so....why can't we? It looks a little weird to have a totally different eye aura all the time on my Nictus. -

Not even close. (and War Mace doesn't have sparks)

Well, there's the issue that Dual Blades has particularly obvious *KLINKLINKLINKCLANKCKAN!!* sounds where more *PWAPTPWAPTPOOHWA!* would be more appropriate.
Also, DB has sparkly sparks (unless I'm confusing them with Katana)... -
Is that Niddhog at the end?!
Cannot wait

Perhaps we're missing the point because you insist on skewing it.
I fail to see why you're so hung up on this one phrase 'Not worth taking' as if thats the only point being raised. It isn't, except by you...
Let it go. It isn't the cruz of the issue, it's a side consideration in the grand scheme. Bringing it up repeatedly serves no purpose other than spreading misinformation and making the meat of the topic that much harder to get to.

Personally, I loved Ms. Tate's turn as Lauren Cooper. But yeah I can see your point. Thankfully, we don't have actual chavs stateside to ruin it for us.
We could probably solve a lot of problems over here with a good round up and some pump-action shotguns...

Sheesh, serious Oscars is SERIIEZ BIIZNESZ!!! Clearly...
I personally find it nice that someone treats things with a bit less starch and up-tightness and laughs at how silly the whole world can be sometimes... -
Quote:So you just totally gloss over the numbers side of stuff, then?Originally Posted by Darth_Khasei
Annoying and not worth it are not reasons the devs use to change powers, which will not change based on spin doctoring.
Numbers and 'annoying and not worth it' are not totally detached subjects in this argument.
And yes, we get it, you don't really care/want/agree. So....why are you still here again? -
Quote:Sounds about right.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
Actually, the vocal minority wanted gender neutral costumes. The vocal majority wanted to maximize the amount of option porting to both genders, which had the side effect of the devs deciding that more options were reasonable to port from men to women than the reverse.
The silent majority, as usual, cared a lot less either way than either of them. -
Quote:There's a difference between being a feminist and being a guy who likes having a wide variety of characters and getting utterly sick and tired of the male models getting, say, a gunslinger outfit and the women then getting a 'saloon girl' outfit instead, since that was the pack that sparked the whole argument.Originally Posted by Red_Addiction
Thanks a lot feminists. (Sarcasm)
Guy, for the most part, have had all the cool stuff for a while now. The female model, on the other hand, got all the 'sexy Halloween' variety of stuff (Magic pack, Gunslinger Pack, partially Barbarian pack) rather than, say, cool jackets, new trousers and suchnot.
So, yeah. At least get the facts right please, before tar-brushing everyone in one go. -
Quote:They have a web-team? I thought they just left some monkeys in the office during the day and slung whatever they smashed out on the keyboards up as 'productive activity'...Originally Posted by Aggelakis
That would be acceptable, but the NCsoft web team is so incompetent I wouldn't want to do anything fancy that has the possibility of breaking.
No, I'm actually not kidding. The NC web stuff is TRIPE, in an internet filled with bad UI designs and shoddy work. No, I can't code or do UI stuff myself, but if I was being paid to do it I'd at least make sure the damn stuff was GOOD.
Not monkey dross. -

Dink pretty much saved my subscription for the game. I would've dropped it if I hadn't seen the amazing progress he's made.

Dragon heads, please

Oh gods, YES! /Signed. It's blimmin' awful how Crey suddenly turn bland and boring as all get out at 45+. This could really do with happening, given they've started bulking out other groups too.

'Sexy' Jay was, at best, a B movie martial arts star. With serious issues.
Dink is the smegging legitimate love-child of Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris mixed with Da Vinci, or something.
ALL HAIL DINK!

Quote:I still think I could write a better Recluse.Originally Posted by Zwillinger
I am extremely proud of the importance we have always placed on the lore of City of Heroes/Villains. I've always found the stories of Statesman, Recluse, Tyrant and the rest of the CoH-verse entertaining and interesting. If you take into account I am one of those people who click through most quest dialog and barely reads lore, the fact that the writing of Protean, Dr. Aeon, Viridian and those who came before them actually compels me to pause and read...well, it means something.
No, I'm not kidding I'd kill to work on the PS writing team. Heck, I'd consider an internship after this year if you guys had room, even if I had to fly stateside.

Quote:WARNING: Detecting Dire Sense of Humour Failure in Drives 3, 4, 7 and 9Originally Posted by Draeth Darkstar
Should you really be publicly bashing another MMO on these forums? That's sketchy according to the rules here, even if you didn't specifically name it. You should set a better example, being that you're the guy everyone expects to enforce those rules.
...Also, in the vast majority of cases, that other game has better writing than this one. Most of the content in this game would be about as interesting as watching paint dry if I were playing it for the story and not the character and combat systems.
