    If not then oh well. Not my concern and not my worry.



    Oh, and as far as V-side challenges = awesome goes...

    Our hami raid is much more difficult.
    Oh, I think she's having fun with us, as am I. We're talking about a game where, regardless of which side we play, the primary point of it is to beat on other people til we succeed in getting what we want. I really hope none of us think that's the proper way to do things in the real world.

    It didn't work.
    true, but just because someone doesn't admit that they're a terrorist doesn't make it not so.

    Meanwhile, I look forward to hearing about you committing Theft, Arson, and Murder "For Great Justice!"
    if GG's done Statesman's TF she's already guilty of attempting to destabilise the government of a sovereign nation with no cause other than the benevolent dictator of Paragon City said so.

    edit: as to stuff that's harder and/or more fun redside, I've got to agree that Mayhem missions are more challenging and more fun than Safeguards. on the other hand. later in the game, teaming up with heroes to do heroic stuff (saving the world from the Rikti, or beating the poop out of Mr I AM NICTUS in the ITF) is less rewarding, because you don't get the option to try and make a deal with the enemies and sell out your heroic, temporary allies. I've probably got one or two villains who'd happily let Paragon City become a Rikti controlled area if they could get themselves a nice island with palm trees, drinks served in coconuts and some hula girls out of it.
  4. thanks, Tony. been needing to upgrade for a few months now and keep holding off until any of the new games I'm wanting announce any kind of requirements. At least I can consider prices now.
  5. bit sad that they're showing us screenies (ooh, shiny) and telling us that Ultra Mode is coming "if your computer can handle it" but not telling us what our computer will need to have in order to handle it.

    still, looks nice, not sure on the EATs at 20 thing, but I suppose if it encourages new players (seems unlikely) and the other stuff sounds good. Probably go for the collectors version of GR.
  6. well, sure I was aware there were many reasons to have 2 accounts. but if we don't have one, we shouldn't have to get one just to safely transfer inf.
    I'll guess that there's a lot of people who do only have one account. How the ratio compares, I don't know.

    definitely a possibility without restrictions being placed on such a feature were it to be considered
  8. I've ignored people, or added a note when people have been unable to communicate well. I suppose if we could bring along a few alts as bot-controlled teammates we wouldn't need to worry so much about this. A real team is obviously better, but there are times when I'm happily soloing but get stuck on a mish where I maybe need one or two extra hands to soak up some of the damage/numbers or dish some damage out. I don't think it's a terrible idea, but there'd have to be a bit of planning and restriction to get it working in a way that wouldn't discourage real teams.
  9. yeah, we really should all just get a 2nd subscription (if we don't already) just so we can transfer inf

    seriously, I'd like to see emailing of items and/or a global vault. I do see the arguments against it because it would affect the market a bit, but since there's nothing but the worry of having to trust others that limits it at the moment I'm not sure it's an argument I can take 100% on board. of course, maybe the devs would prefer us to trust others?
  10. I wouldn't hate being able to team up some of my toons in a single mission. Maybe it could be implemented as something for AE, with diminished rewards in place or something?

    yeah! It's great that there's no way to transfer inf from one toon to another at present.
  12. wouldn't really affect me at all. not for it or against it so long as it doesn't take up a lot of Dev time to implement as it does seem quite a minor thing
  13. hopefully with Going Rogue we'll get the option to choose hero or villain versions of our badge titles. (with the science booster's gender swapping, it'd be nice if we got to choose male or female versions as well)

    I've one Blaster in particular that I'd like to have the Thief day job, and alternately, I think as many Bankers could be villains as are heroes.
  14. I'd still like enemy costume parts to be unlocked after getting defeat badges from them. Take out enough Freakshow and you're bound to be able to rip off at least a couple of usable robo-arms, and so on.

    Make it part of an issue, thus eliminating some of the complaints about us never getting any good cossies in the free updates.

    Agree that we're unlikey to get signature characters' unique pieces. I would like it if we got similar parts though. I'm not all for Ms Liberty's belt and sword combo, but I'd be all for a few variations on the theme, this piece in particular IMO since we've got the similar police officer belt/nightstick combo.

    Alter Egos

    I'm probably more like myself online than I am in person

    edit: although I do punch less people in the face IRL
  16. haha, TVtropes is the inescapable abyss of the internet!

    now, topic at hand? I quite like sticking Trustworthy on my low lvl villains. "Trusssst in meee"
  17. I don't like the in-client store. For starters, for EU players it seems to randomly alternate between Euros and Pounds Sterling, which is a bit of a pain when it always seems to be in Euros when I go to buy something. There's also times when I may want to buy character slots but don't have access to the game. Earlier this year I was to get some as a birthday gift, but the person had to give me the money and I had to wait until I was home to buy them. I'm not sure if there's a technical aspect limiting purchase of extra character slots to the client itself, but if there isn't I don't see why there'd be any reason not to let people add more slots to their account without being logged into the game.
  18. Authority vol 4 and Sleeper season 2 books. (Yes, I can't wait for Going Rogue to get embroiled in a similar situation to Holden Carver) Robot Chicken and Dollhouse DVDs. bunch of other stuff too, including money, some of which will go towards some new character slots!

  21. thinking about feathers, arm wings would be great, and/or something a bit like the magic pack over shoulders cape/mantle but made of feathers.(a bat-wing version would kick *** as well)
  22. having the love of money isn't going to pay my way though evil doctor school now though is it?

    Now remove the apostrophe and replace the second letter with a different one.

    The new word "offends" people.
    People are offended by a shorthand version of the word continued? to be cont.
