    Han stepping on Jabba's tail didn't bug you? Or the atrocious CGI Jabba for that matter?

    And Vader saying "Noooo," was objectionable, but Luke screaming like a little girl as he plunged down the reactor shaft in TESB was OK?


    Those four are my biggest objections, but since I have the original theatrically released versions of the OT on DVD, I no longer care what changes Uncle George makes to "his" films.

  3. What side do you pick more than others?

    I would say I favor Blue at about a 2:1 ratio.


    What play style do you prefer?

    It varies between melee and ranged, but I prefer damage dealers over support character, and really dislike tanks. My favorite ATs are Scrappers, Brutes, Doms and Blasters in no particular order. Oh and I probably prefer to play solo. I team out of necessity, but the team experience tends to drain and or stress me, so I usually won't play on teams for more than an hour unless it's a TF or something.


    What power set(s) do you favor?

    Fire (except control), mind, broadsword, willpower.


    What zones do you like the most?

    I really only dislike Sharkhead, Skyway, Nerva and IP. Everything else I like about equally and for different reasons.


    Do you usually play as a male or female (word of hatred) ''toon''?

    My toons tend to be female on about a 3:1 or even 4:1 ratio. I don't know why, but I find it more interesting to play a heroic female character than a heroic male character, maybe because I prefer my heroes to be more like Buffy Summers and less like John McClain.


    Views on Role Playing?

    I enjoy it and I think it can add a lot to the playing experience provided it doesn't devolve into emo crap, but I'm casual about it and will mostly play OOC on PuGs if everyone else is.


    Servers?

    Virtue first by a long shot, followed by Guardian, which was my first "home," followed by Exalted. Breakdown of playtime is probably 90%, 8%, 2% respectively.
  4. Just out of curiosity, what percentage of the game's player base lives within say... a three hour drive of wherever this is being held?

    I mean I understand that it's convenient and inexpensive for Paragon Studios to hold this in their backyard, and when it was just a glorified meet and greet, I didn't have an issue with that. But now it's a "Players Summit" where players are giving real input on the future of the game, and it's being limited to those who can drive to, or afford to fly to it. That's not right.

    If you held one in the fall in CA and one in the spring on the east coast, the midwest, the south, or even in Europe, fine because then you'd be including more than just the same people all the time, but now it sounds like you won't even be coming to the east coast this spring. Which means that if you come to NYCC this fall, CA will have had three player summits to our one meet and greet in a year and a half.

  6. I don't know why they skip level 20 either, but on the characters I do bother to run the arc with, i always wait until I qualify for the lvl 25 anyway. It's just more useful than the 10 or 15.
  7. Um... OK.

    Stealer - one who, y'know, steals stuff.
  8. It's a shame there's not a safe place in Croatoa you could hold this one. Lots of farms there.

    Or heck, you could have it in one of the AE buildings - lots of farms there too!
  9. - You trigger your Pocket D teleporter and find yourself at the back of a long line, waiting to get in.

    - You misjudge a leap, land in the water, and drown.

    - You choose Scirroco as your patron and he only gives you missions like, "Pick up my dry-cleaning," "Take my dog for a walk," and "Mow my lawn." Being a good sport, you complete all your tasks, and unlock your Patron Power Pool: Houseboy, which has powers such as "Genuflection," "Simpering Obedience," and "Humiliate Self."

    - You level up and the trainer congratulates you on finally reaching level negative 1.5 billion.
  10. I agree with you, but if it didn't happen in the days before Freedom, it sure as heck isn't going to happen now.

    Does that mean that you would never fix this mess:

    Good to know. Does Afterburner at least boost the speed of unehanced Fly? Or does it just allow flight speed enhancements to be more effective?

    Also, while you can't use powers while flipping in the air, the flip seems to let you return to the fight a lot faster than getting knocked down/back does.
  13. Why would they generic a character named Regnif? Or was that not the body part? Toof? Gnul? Wait, I know... Sugahpose?

    You do know that snow is made up of ice crystals, right?


  15. How about remodelling one of the existing areas to give it more of a sports bar feel? Some flat screen TVs up on the walls, those little trivia consoles on the bars. The section above the Money Fight Club might make the most sense, but the redside bar could certainly use a facelift too.

    How about a "deck" area that is open either year 'round, or at least during the northern hemisphere summer? Only thing is, I'm not sure how you'd keep people from flying over to the chalet.

    As for the warehouse layout, the advantage to that is is open enough for flying characters to get around without constantly getting snagged on things, or running into other players.

    My biggest preference:
    -- COMPLETE any incomplete patterns! Many patterns don't have all pieces available. Also, Tights Sleek don't have gloves, boots, skirt, or face mask equivalents. Etc. Complete all of those!
    While I agree with you about the masks and skirts, we do have sleek tights options for boots and gloves.

    What we need, at least for males, is a "tights, smooth" option for boots and gloves. As well as for masks I suppose.

    Other requests:

    - A "tights muscular" option for females. An option with better/more muscle definition on the abs/arms/legs since the standard "tights" option for women is equivalent to the "tights, smooth" option for men. Add glove, mask and boot selections to match as necessary.
    - Dual colors on fishnet pieces so that the bikini and shoes can be a different color than the fishnets if the user desires (see Shorts X/Shorts X + Tights, and Heels 1/Heels 2 options)
    - Sheer tights for females as mentioned by a previous poster.
    - Trunks (ala boxer-briefs) for males, with and without tights.
    - Three-color patterns, if possible.
    - An option for flattening or completely removing the ears from characters with the full mask option.
  17. I was grabbing CoH exploration badges on my Rogue last night, but when I went into Oro to go after the badges in the Echo of Galaxy City, I couldn't find the Oro portal that suppoedly takes you there. I had other things to do so I didn't bother to go looking for it on a Hero/Vig last night.

    So, if I want those badges, do I have to be all the way blue? I will be eventually just to get the badges for doing that, but I was curious.
  18. Congrats to Jessica Lange on her well-deserved Golden Globe win last night.

    I didn't know she'd already won four others.
  19. - Wentworths refuses you service due to your credit rating.

    - When you first meet Kalinda, she mistakes you for the kid who delivers her newspaper.

    - DJ Zero has gone to great lengths to ensure there is no violence in Pocket D. But in your case, he's made an exception...

    - You summon your German Shepherd pet, and it runs away.

    - You go for a swim in Lake Salamanca, and Sally one-shots you.
  20. Haven't read all nine pages, but my thoughts:

    - Cleaner lines on existing pieces so that the pattern doesn't bleed into the background.
    - Masks that don't look painted on. Why can I see my eyebrows through my mask?
    - White pieces that are not translucent.
    - Fishnet bottoms with separate tinting options for the panty area (bottoms selection) and shoes (boots selection). That way if you wanted to wear a blue bodysuit with black fishnets and blue heels, you could.
  21. I had a blast last night. Thanks for adding a fun twist to a costume contest. It was so much better than just standing around for an hour like you do sometimes.
  22. Again, phosphate is not synonymous with a British police officer, but I'll keep going building off your definition...

    Bear - a slang term for a US police officer, typically used by truckers and CB users in the 70s and 80s.
