Thanks! Now I'm curious just how much extra damage it adds... Kind of reminds me how "Reach for the limit" from Martial Combat doesn't list specific values, either...

Is that a brute? I rechecked and it appears only to grant extra damage to brutes & stalkers, (at least according to the wiki). But, hey, I'm all for being proven wrong...

I think that only applies to scrappers, stalkers, and sentinels...

Well, elec, rad, and SR have self +recharge buffs, which can improve DPS. Fire armor has a sort of secondary build-up like power in fiery embrace. Radiation armor also has a great extra source of recovery, not to mention absorb and regen, in particle shielding - more end means less downtime, after all...

It was in the comics/manga. Similarly, if you watched the Riding Bean anime, (which sort of contained a prototype of Rally), one of the villain's love interest was basically an underage girl as well.

I like to see how the various NPC vs NPC fights turn out, like the PPD vs Freakshow fights in Brickstown. Sometimes it's fun to let the RIPs fight the neutral Skulls in Port Oakes, then finish off the survivors...

Can you clarify what the "this" is, when you're asking "is this working as intended"? That the NPC defeated the Crey?

I don't have a name for this one, but I just liked it...

What started out as me trying to make something festive, turned into "Snow-Crow"!!!

Clearly the appropriate behavior would be for them to invite you out to a movie, then afterward, during the walk home, they turn into a werecat...

I could see some sort of area indicator on a map for where the GM is, but IIRC, having to track them down was supposed to be part of the experience, (not that I necessarily agree with the design decision, just that CoH was created in an era where there a certain amount of ambiguity was intended in these sorts of things).

Wait... I thought this was a suggestion to add a "Bah" and "Humbug" set to the game...

Maybe turn this into a sort of "US version of Thunderbirds", where Airwolf is more of a "do-anything" vehicle, and you can bring in more members of Archangel's team, on a rotating basis, to help copilot Airwolf and play up their strengths, (perhaps you have a member of "The Agency" who's a forensics expert, another an engineer, another a criminal profiler, etc...)

Not to derail things too much, but this is one of the major revelations I've had regarding another game I frequently play - Fallout 76; Over the years, they have made it easier and easier for 1 single character to do everything - you can swap abilities almost on the fly, and with practically no cost. CoH, (for the better, IMHO), presents you with the difficult decision of selecting an AT, primary, and secondary set that you CANNOT change, and even if it is relatively easy to reach 50, it still requires at least some dedication to fully kit that character out and really turn them into the fully fleshed-out character you think they can become... [/Rant]

Maybe take a different approach - KITT as a cloud-based AI, though with a "favorite host body" being the supercar, (obviously with at least a few callbacks to his original Trans-Am). Perhaps address topics of privacy and automation, (or would that deviate too much from the more action-oriented "problem of the week" format the OG one took?)

Do you think they could do the whole Min-May story nowadays? (If it's too controversial to bring up here, my apologies).

It may be a dumb question at this point, but have you considered switching to a different provider? Even some sort of home wifi via 4G/5G would be better at this point...

And nothing of value was lost...

One additional piece of info that I want to add is that there seems to be this trend in the episodes where they'll continue the story a little bit after or during the credits - they seem to be little vignettes about a particular character's backstory, so don't skip them!

Archery actually has a pretty fast-recharging/animating T1, but in general, those sets are supposed to have a more deliberate feel to them. Dual blades, katana, and most of the unarmed sets are the ones that tend to be faster animating. Regardless, animation work is probably the most time-consuming aspect of development, so I wouldn't hold my breath in hopes of seeing a significant change to those sets' animations...

So I watched the first 2 episodes yesterday, and I have to say, this series, (while definitely NOT for children), has just the right amount of drama/angst while not taking itself too seriously. There is mature subject matter, and some very "not ok" topics introduced, but overall I found it very entertaining, with its dark humor and fight scenes. It's also nice to see some C/D/E/F-tier characters getting some air time...

Thanks! They're the cosmic corsair ones, under "tucked in"...

This one turned out a lot better than I was expecting: "The Nuclear Option"
