if raging tempest looks TOO WINDY i'm going to be angry that it's not part of a Wind-Blast Set that i've been begging for four six years, and why is an elemental wind power in a nature set that is otherwise pretty organic-sounding. [i know i know, to fill a hole, but still! i need wind blast!!!!!]
D:<
otherwise i'm going to looooove this set!!!!
can. not. wait. -
i might HAVE to play a spines character finally.
as much as i love thorns and it's extra range-y-ness, bio armor just sounds so delicious! -
wait i havent gone through all the pages :P
has there been speculation that two of the Hydra Heads powers are potential water-blast fx? methinks for geyser and aqua burst... but i'm sure the powers will be even more epic, but as soon as i stumbled upon those powers my previous thoughts during DFB's of "these sure would look great as a water powerset..." surfaced...
-
i proposed a duplication/cloning set a while ago in the suggestions forum, and it made a lot of sense and was really nice [i was quite proud] but now im not sure where it was...
but i'd like Swamp Summoning with tuatha like creatures and a tidbit of plany attacks mixed in...
or the Celestial Summoning with nothing tooo angel specific since the devs are touchy about that, and have it more sky/elemental ish and hit two birds with one stone.
-
i dream of a day when an issue .5 will be a plethora of power and pet customization. MM customization will finally be worked out and the UI fixed, and controllers will have a whole slew of new pets to choose from [probably much easier than mm pets, obvi, look at animate stone...] with razorvines and bedrocks and geodes, and whisps and robots andnew shapes for phantoms and phantasms...
one day
that dream will come true. and i wont have to look at or listen to that dang stupid theme-breaking canine-specific dog-rig-overkill fuzzy-but-still-obviously-just-a-wolf-port pet any more. -
i would change group invisi to an AoE immob with low dmg, "phantom binds" or "phantom chains" and then swap out the spectral terror for a Fear Cone making the player the terror itself.
BAM whole new kind of dominator.
XD
but i concurr, it shouldnt be too difficult to give this set to Doms with some minor alterations like darkness affinity was of dark maisma for trollers. it needs to happen. is long overdue. -
YES TO EVERYTHING IN THE POST ABOVE
also, mayhaps you can get some ideas for pieces from :cough:cha:cough:mpions:cough
nline:cough:, particularly their Swamp King set and Serpent Armor set. we could use some more organic-nature pieces, especially with nature affinity coming out in the not too distantr future.
https://www.champions-online.com/store [for example, has screenies of the costume parts mentioned. not to copy from, but to get inspiration from, cuz dink is the superior costume artist]
seeing as how some of the sets are... strangely similar... even with name and pieces in the same sets... :cough:retro-scifi:cough: simply due to the nature that is super-hero-ness, perhaps those two sets mentioned above can give insight as to armor pieces and organic body parts that are not yet in game but have been requested for for ages.
yes, even the belts from both those sets :P. especially.
NO i'm not asking you to copy [especially because you all can make SUCH better items], but they have examples of things that i think would be good additions to this game, and have been asked for before. tree-stumps, branches, chest/groin armor, arm wings, culturally inspired yet inoffensive costume parts, lots and lots of back details...
for all body types.
cuz everything should be on all body types.
XD keep up the good work! -
Hi Everybody!
I was hoping someone could help me out with my blaster. He is Assault Rifle / Fire Manip and I'm planning on going with Munitions when i get to level 35. Currently I'm avoiding beanbag and build up, and am level 24. I was thinking of picking my munitions powers up first, then grabbing the last two fire powers for levels 47 and 49.
i was hoping someone could help me out with slotting or building. i'd love just about any advice, i'm still learning about IOs and set bonuses, and am also more used to playing trollers/doms than blasters.
thanks in advance everybody!
:edit: dont plan on getting any travel powers right now, but if i did, i'd probably get super speed. and have tough and weave right now but can drop those if it helps. -

Sure thing! We'll just get the janitor and receptionist to help with the animation, power balancing, costuming, and coding!! Coming right up!!!! i know there are a couple dozen creative and experienced [with programming and what not] players who'd be willing to even volunteer to help pump things out faster, even if it was to be added to the market and not for free.

i can has internship with synapse pleez? -

This is quite common.
Not only because of homosexual orientation that was 'latent', but because of societal pressure to 'be straight', gay men forced themselves to marry and have sex with their wives (o, hai alcohol!), or, bisexual men only manifested their heterosexual tendencies... and then later in life explored their other side.
A rather large percentage of self-identified gay men have had heterosexual encounters in their youth.
i love Obsidian and Jade. also why decide on making the father gay of an already gay character, potentially erasing the older one. :facepalm: thanks DC, that's not the best idea.
lolQuote:Originally Posted by Tater Todd
Hrmm! Yes...well look at you sir! All full of knowledge and whatnot! Also, I found this on another forum I frequent. Before you yell at me, remember I'm a Marvel Guy so I didn't know Alan's son was gay.
Obsidian is my one of my favorite lgbt-etc. characters ever.

so i shouldnt be too excited about him then? -
somebody told me "read Flash #9" so i did and it has some guy and his "friend" briefly mentioned in a couple panels but i am not familiar with their names
O_O
help? -
nnnoooo, it's still a small list. also, most of those are Marvel, and when DC unleashed the new 52, Apollo and Midnigher actually took a couple steps backward.
and Bunker is their new-gay-character and personally, he's kinda meh. i like that he's of color, and i love his personality, but his powers are pretty stupid... "energy bricks! i can control size and density of the bricks but they are still bricks!!!" wtf haha. i'd make them smaller so you cant tell they are bricks...

Eh, I can see where the guy's coming from, but I still think I'd have preferred a new gay character over the "coming out" of an existing character.
The main reason why is that depending on how it's handled and how the character continues to be written I'm just afraid that if the character's storyline takes a turn for the worse, it'll be associated with the change in sexuality even if the parts people don't like are completely unrelated to that specific change.
It's one thing for a new gay character to just not turn out well but I just don't want the possible decline of a favorite kind of character to be linked to their being made gay.
and really it is nothing compared to some of the changes made to the other big names... cough:WONDER WOMAN:cough. cant be that big of a difference... and people dealt with that, like it or not.
also, originally Mystique and Destiny were supposed to be Nightcrawler's parents but that was too "controversial" so they've been intended to be a couple since around when mystique was revealed to be nightcrawler's momma i think
aldo, did snyone mention Living Lightning [Marvel] to the list?
there's actually a good sized list of all known heroes like these on wiki i think. but if you compare that to the list of ALL KNOWN heroes it is small. -
Cant think...
Fassbender... Too... Gorgeous...
Must look away...
But cant...
Too sexy -
i believe it was:
and that introduced me to the very lovely Warren Worthington III.

like Mental_Giant... my mind is also blown.

i cant even begin to process everything now lol omgah! -
gay mogo!
anyway.... <_<
here's a good article if y'all are interested

i would really like a belt similar to what we have for valkyrie mostly, but also vanguard and celestial... but without the ginormous hip pads.
i love all those belts and want to use them a lot, but the triple hip size stops me from using them, even though they would otherwise finish a character's costume. i dont like hip aromor. thigh armor- ok maybe, but that would be infront, not on the side. i mean, hip-armor does exist and is fine, but i dont like it XD and we already have quite a lot of it.
sooo...
something LIKE them, segmented armored belt, generally v-shaped, plate-mail maybe, or lighter armor.
thanks!
[again, think valkyrie/vanguard/celestial but without their hip armor. cant explain better than that!]

Quote:that's silly, i know plenty of gay guys and lessies that love comicbooks, and i went to a very large university and they were from all sorts of places/backgrounds.Originally Posted by Optimus_Dex
That is something my brother and I have talked about . He is gay and he does not get cpmics book - never has.He has said why all the gays in comic books when he knows no one that is gay that reads them now. Maybe when they were younger but not as adult men. He laughs at me and my obssesion about them.
also, i prefer the term queer but it has a lot of history and stigma behind it, and some folks just arent comfortable with it, which is understandable.
gosh i cant wait for jean-paul's wedding though!!! northstar! it's finally time!!! i wonder what state they're gonna do it in... so many choices... O_O -
Quote:well... pretty much all of the big name characters have changed drastically. this one might be the smallest change depending on who it is... wondy has a whole new backstory and look, as does superman. batman to a lesser extent, but those are the big three and a large portion of who and what they used to be was completely retconned... thanks to the new 52. i'd be much more upset about those things if i were you, as the long time established characters and histories were written anew. so im not sure what you mean but "never showed any signs of the change", especially if it's a character not yet introduced into the new 52, but is potentially an expanding of a story from before that was never really explored in depth. i'm hoping they have someone in mind who was before, a little ambiguous, or already hinted at.Originally Posted by BrandX
You're right of course.
My porblem with it though, is it seems like it's going to be an already established character, and one who never showed any signs of the change.
Now, they can easily say "it's a new universe, so he's different in this universe" but then if people don't treat it like they treated new Starfire (since it's a new universe, so she's different in this universe") and don't give it flak like they do with Starfire, it would just be wrong.
but as for changes out of the blue... clark without lois was the worst thing for me to handle, but i dont have much of a choice really, as i'm not one of their writers. and they were soul-mates... depending on how this new "outing" is handled, and depending on which character, it could flow pretty easily, and still be something trivial compared to other changes in this new 52. i agree starfire was a drastic change... made by... men... O_o... but this doesn't necessarily have to be poorly done.
let's wait a month to see who it is and how its handled. -
Quote:i always figured it would make more sense in the "tails" option. simply have the option for "waist cape"... for all body types mind you... and have the option to attatch a cape where the tail would be. this would allow for belts to still go on top, and give us at least the feathered cape option as a tail since we're still lacking in that area. capes fit fine over jackests and shoulder pads and torso junk, so it shouldnt be a problem with pants and skirts really... options could be dropdown1: wide or narrow [as to the cape attatchment, wide around the waist, or narrow making the cape triangular or more narrow ala single shoulder cape], and then dropdown2: tupe of cape, from the same cape list.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Something else just occurred to me:
Butt capes.
Can we pretty please have a few of those? I just ran into the Gunslinger cape belt for women and I was reminded of how cool those pieces look, so can we please have a few more of these? Specifically, can we have a few that look more like basic capes?
I'd suggest adding this as a separate back(side) option in a fashion similar to basic shoulder capes, with just a cloth-type fabric strip to explain how it's being held on. Make sure it's close to the body so we can cover it with a belt if we want. Or, hell, just cut out the middle man and have the cape come out of our waists with no support and let us pick a belt if we want, or pretend it's part of our tights if we don't.
Failing a backside option, could we at least have a selection of a few belt options that come with a butt cape attached? Belts already come with two category options, so for the "cape belt," the second option could just be a pattern mask with everything that's currently under the classic mantles available. It honestly looks really good, and it's a shame only one belt like it exists in the game, not counting the default slot of Widow characters.
also a tentacle cape please, since tentacles as a back option might not happen anytime soon. two longer tentacles on the ends, then some shorter but still long tentacles in the middle, think: a mix between cape of the four winds, the dagger cape, and the spliced cape.
thanks Dink!
