biostem

Meghan received an experimental treatment derived from sea creatures, in order to save her life. It had some... side effects. Deciding to make the best of the situation, and in order to learn to control her new powers, she took up hero work, dubbing herself "Meg A. Lodon", (warm water and stealthy "Orca" looks):

Obviously the reason for travel suppression is to force people into hover and combat jumping...

Not being directly hit by any nuclear weapons itself, but still suffering the global effects of all the other strikes, along with the oil shortages, the Australia of the Mad Max movies exists within the Fallout universe - they never got the advanced weapons or robotics of the US, due to having closed off their borders once word got out of the US annexing Canada...

I'm cautiously optimistic about this series, but I have a few reservations: 1. Is this going to be an Obi-Wan show, or an Owen/Beru/redemptive Inquisitor one, featuring Obi-Wan? 2. There were no Inquisitors present when something as vital as the Death Star plans were stolen, so I hope there's a good explanation for why they aren't present here; Perhaps we'll get something like Darth Vader straight up murdering one or two for daring to get involved in something he's involved in. 3. I hope we get an explanation for how no one made the connection between Luke Skywalker and Anakin - maybe all records were destroyed or altered? 4. I hope Obi doesn't just mope around all the time, but I also don't want him whipping out the lightsaber at the drop of a hat. Maybe he'll be more subtle and we'll see more mind tricks or misdirection? 5. If Owen faces down an Inquisitor, I hope we get some explanation as to why Luke never catches wind of it. 6. Will we see Leia or the Organas?

I don't want to derail things too much, but I think that enemy NPCs need to have some sort of "reaction time" factored into their responses, so a player character jumping or teleporting into the middle of them, who was previously undetected, isn't met with an immediate and simultaneous response...

I'm not saying I'm in favor of travel power suppression, but the devs did include powers like hover and sprint, which do not suppress while in combat, so you could always try slotting up swift and sprint if you wanted faster movement speed while in combat...

That's honestly more of a PvP issue to consider - the computer-controlled enemies can pretty much react instantly...

I wonder if we could get the Atlas statue with the hollow wire-frame globe, like was shown in the very early CoH videos... As a general suggestion, though - maybe hold a costume contest, (noting that the character has to be monochromatic)...

You never outgrow them, so I'd say no. Perhaps the cost to craft them could be reexamined, though...

The problem is the risk vs reward mechanic gets messed up when you factor in IO set bonuses, pool powers, and Incarnate abilities...

Could you do something like a "Doing business as" or "AKA", where the character's real name remains unchanged, but their title reflect what they are currently going by...

The default is the middle button - so try pressing down the scroll wheel to see if you like how that works...

This fits squarely into the trope of "gameplay and story segregation"; Think about how common healing, buffing, hard control, and rez powers are in CoH, but how they're barely present in comics - Doomsday kills Superman - "No big deal, anyone got a rez!?" - Bane breaks Batman's back? Just hit him with a clear mind, a fortitude, and a heal other, maybe a little recovery aura just to be sure...

The middle mouse button is tied to being able to freely rotate around your character, so maybe that...

Maybe try roleplaying it? Perhaps you could get your group to use certain names if they see you in a particular costume, or you could put something in your bio. Perhaps we could have something like a particular title could be associated with each costume slot or something...

I don't know if you do this already, but you can also use mousechord, with is both mouse buttons pressed at the same time, as well as mbutton, which is typically a press of the mouse wheel itself.

I betcha there's an engineer hiding in that janitor's closet, hoping she leaves before finding him...

Is there something wrong with her eyes?

Do you mean you'd like to get that pattern as an option for standard tights and other such pieces, instead of just the pieces specifically labeled as "bridal"?

Is there some way to make attacks ignore a certain amount of damage resistance, to simulate armor penetration? Maybe some sort of debuff "pierced", which applies a damage resistance debuff, but only for your archery attacks...

I took and promptly slotted up that new flight power "evasive maneuvers", before I read that the defense bonus only applies when you weren't in combat, issuing commands to pets, and weren't interacting with a glowie...

The thing is, the game doesn't really differentiate between a sort of "psychic attack delivered in the form of a scream" and "someone shouting really really loud & forcefully", but I get your point...

We don't need more damage types, but both sets could benefit from an expansion in what damage types they deal: Radiation could also deal some toxic damage, and electricity could deal some fire damage. IMO, Sonic should be smashing damage, since you are literally pelting your target with what amounts to compressed or vibrating waves of air.

I ran into this odd issue while creating a character, and switching between different ATs; The pistols that Thugs MMs get seem a lot bigger than those that defenders, corruptors, or blasters get:

I mean, if something was 95% copper and 5% zinc, wouldn't it still technically be brass? I could absolutely be wrong, here, but other than being "an alloy of copper and zinc", is there any limiting factor? Is 99% copper and 1% zinc still brass? Just playing devil's advocate...
