    I am lvl 44 and want to do safeguard mission in founders falls but when i click on the radio it says that events are beyond my notice?

     

    Usually that means you've out-leveled that zone and the radio won't give you any missions. For a Safeguard mission you need to go talk to the Detective for that zone, but you can't get a Safeguard if you've out-leveled the zone.

     

     

     

  2. The newcomer experience is mostly fine in CoH. Unless a newbie picks Praetoria or a Epic AT. Those are the only areas that need a bit more direction. We all made it through our newbie phases just fine without having our hands held too much. Maybe, maybe an auction house and invention system tutorial that comes earlier than level 10.

    I noticed this series in a list of shows on a reactor's YouTube channel.  I'm not budgeted for Max right now, but hope to see the show at some point.

     

    Oh, and who is the "My" in the title?  Or is that a spoiler?

     

    Lois Lane. She's a fairly big part of the show, along with Jimmy Olson.

  4. I meant to make a topic for this show but somehow never got around to it. The first three episodes of Season 2 are now up on Max and I'm happy this show got a second season. My Adventures With Superman is not the standard fair for entries in the DCAU which is good since it's not actually set in the DCAU. This is an alternate retelling of Superman with a more modern backstory and an anime art-style. I found it to be very enjoyable and a fresh approach to the big blue boyscout. Definitely worth a binge-watch.

    "Well, ok."

     

    "Wait, this thing isn't loaded."

     

    "Oh, you can't really shoot capes. Best thing to do is run up and hit them with it."

    Are you kidding me? Malta is the only group I worry about. Between their extremely long mezzes and their Sappers, if you aren't a melee type and pick off the Sappers 1st, they're a problem.

     

    No. that's what I think. Thanks for asking.

    Do we even play the same game? Malta and Carnival have never been the most annoying groups, at least not since Going Rogue. The groups added in Praetoria were the gold standard for toughness, and the new Council outstrips even them.

     

    The Carnival of Shadows haven't been a problem since the amount of summons the Illusionists and Master Illusionists create were nerfed to correspond to team size.

    Elle King - Under The Influence

     

    I really like Elle King's music but she messed up going onstage will Dolly Parton at the Grand Ole Opry drunk. Fortunately Dolly is a class act. I suppose if people can forgive Morgan Wallen twice then they can probably forgive Elle King once.

    I did board the train and the mission zone was listed at the top. But once I got there no tracker where to go.

     

    Those are open maps. You won't get way-points for hostage rescues. You'll find them in various corners of alleyways and hiding around weird architecture. They'll always be guarded by two minions. The boss will be just standing around somewhere.

    According to Wikipedia, this is a trilogy. and Kevin Conroy recorded lines for the third installment shortly before he passed.

     

    Crap rehash or not, I'd watch them if I could, just to hear him as Batman one more time.

     

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now I'm crying.  Thanks, asshats.

     

    Earth One Batman is voiced by Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester as Batman. While he mostly did fine, he could have used a little more monotone. I didn't set out to upset anyone with this review but this was the fairest shake I could give this feature. Even the fight scenes were lacking substance. I mean, they literally hide behind vehicles and talk while vehicles and buildings are exploding around them. Just....ugh. It's like watching someone hide behind a couch in a gunfight scene and magically survive a hail of bullets.

  12.  I watched this on Max the other evening and... I didn't find it to be very good. Never read the source material so not sure what it was like but this animated version of it was slow paced and hard to follow at best. This is only part one so I assume a second part is coming and I'll probably watch that in the hopes that something is explained because the exposition is lacking in part one.

     

    Spoiler

    They spent 45 minutes of backstory on Flash and Amazo, with Flash randomly jumping into the Speedforce and ending up in different times. I found these scenes to be a little jarring because watching Flash forced to run through the speedforce was a little ridiculous looking.  It probably looked better on a comic page. It looked exactly like I must have with my HS track coach "encouraging" me to run laps when I was on the track team to throw shot put. This was all done to set up Amazo's talking head, which is somehow crucial to the plot. The rest of it, while explained a little better isn't very well done IMO.

     

    This is something to watch if you're bored and looking to hone the edge on that. Hands down the worst offering I've seen from the DCAU. Not recommended.

    Ah.  That explains it.  Only Brandon Lee film I ever saw was Dragon.

     

    The Crow is well worth a watch. It's a great movie and also a sublime slice of the 90's Goth/Emo era.

  14. I believe, and I may be wrong but lore-wise the Dark Astoria that exists for Paragon City is destroyed. Mot's DA only exists for the people Mot has pulled in and trapped. Head canon for me is that the old DA is what is actually there and Mot's DA is extra-dimensional.
