Everyone forgets about Percy Winkley which is why he is constantly having to be rescued, almost as bad as Fusionette.

I do call it "The Game" as well as "My Game" to people who don't play. I found a co-worker or two recently who play but overall, I just speak of it as part of my life, like my car and that periodically reoccurring rash.

I like Jell-O.

Missy is Bank!

I know its nine pages in but not a dirty word to me. its a game mechanic I use and rarely get complaints because I know how to use it. Fun comes in so many shapes and colors.

Leave the Bronx!

I'd rather talk about my feelings regarding loaded potatoes. What problem cant be solved by adding bacon and cheese?

Come on Kiddo!

All the response emoticons shall be his/hers.

dude or dudette, I have been around a while too, it was a joke. Maybe there's a sense of humor farm in AE you can join 🙂

Its the new MineShield the Gadgets Pool that the Devs are working on.

@RandoHeroI do not agree with your position, but thank you for sharing.

I have a Beam/Rad Sentinel at 50. Solid but yes boring.

Was never a fan of the Goody Mob. I am annoyed by ones that phase. I dislike Sorcerers and Porters because they will sometimes port and say fuck it I'm getting coffee and that is when you realize oh, this is a defeat all. I respect Super Stunners, I think its a great execution of concept and powers, but boy is it annoying. Sappers bug me but not like they used to, a lot was mere OMG panic than actual threat.

I like your optimism. But there were umpteen layers of pre-existing forces in game and in real life that would have been brought in before this and thus my problem and no amount of tapdancing, or tweaking or even ret-conning will change that. KW just like every other zone is not a separate city with a separate law enforcement, they are parts of Paragon City thus all served by the PPD. so factoring out the other glaring dumbness here, regardless of whatever big terrible fuck up happened, the only things that would happen would be a cleaning of house by PPD, worse case scenario, all of PPD, in every district. Blah blah this isn't reality. Duh. Yep sure isn't but the games reality works in that it still frames itself in a veneer of normal among the abnormal. State Police, National Guard (State Activation), Federal Law Enforcement, National Guard (Federal Authorization), U.S. Military, Longbow (FBSA Sanctioned), Vanguard (United States and United Nations Sanctioned). All of those entities would have been brought in before some corporation, especially one where the city all but cedes control and oversight of to. Its too much horseshit to suspend disbelief on. Sorry. There are dozens of ways this great enemy (from a power and challenge standpoint) could have been brought in, corporate war between Crey and them comes immediately to mind. Le Sigh.

I am the guy who gets tossed out the window cause it works fine for me and I have had maybe one problem with in in years.

Those emoticons allow me to avoid more strenuous commentary such as the middle finger, telling individuals to copulate with themselves, directions on how to kiss certain rear facing (but smooth) parts of my anatomy. And with the sarcasm turned off, they allow me to acknowledge, either positively or negatively someones thoughts without wasting other people time with my blathering. I talk a lot, I write walls of text and often its lost in the noise of itself; I drift off tangent into sea stories. Often when I comment, I think I have something important to say (rarely is) so to minimize that noise I generate I will click an emoticon (though I still don't get 1/3 of the ones meaning). You have a fine Navy day.

I wonder if he will take my case relating to the Clanket incident.

Growing up it was cartoons and comics then it was Dungeons and Dragons. A creative spark was lit. I could create characters, even worlds. I tired all of the RPGs back then, including Marvel Superheores, Villains and Vigilantes and yes, Champions. The campaigns that we had and then the shitty, poorly drawn comic we drew afterward were fun. Then I suddenly become an adult, join the Navy and that had to be left behind to a degree, at least initially. But computer games arrived and SSI put out the gold box D&D adventures. Now I didn't have to try and scrape together friends I could play. First online MMO was in fact Neverwinter Nights on AOL. Then really serious adulthood occurred as well as locations precluding access. Then I return to the states and its right when CoH arrives, so I pick up up along with EVE online. And I fell in love. Everything was amazing then and most are still amazing now. The fact that you can actually record movies of your heroes doing stuff, in game without a third party program is crazy; they built that in game. I still have a video of the Babes of War from back in like 2008 after doing a Shard TF. The costume creator, all of those things are amazing. But really, for me it boils down to pure escapism, the military demanded absolute focus when on so when off you absolutely need to do the opposite. Even after my military retirement I still work full time in support of our country and that required the same focus. So when We lost CoH I was hard pressed to find my decompression space. When it came back, life was good. My spouse used to complain about the time I spent on the game when it was live, now she has straight up said I am a lot more mellow since it came back.

That right there is a truth bomb. I may just donate a few bucks for their honesty. Thanks BF, I mean PF.

Loved me Pirate Corp$ and Milk & Cheese. Dorkins art would work great with some of my less serious characters. Hmm. Dark Horse back when they had the Aliens license and were really making good product. Munitions Mistress would fit very well there. Also My really goofy characters would be fun in a Roachmill style world.

That looks terrible! I wasn't expecting it to look that bad. And those sound effects, it looks like those commercials form the mid nineties for learning game programming, its like . . . Lawnmower man level bad. I want to feel bad for their developers, but then I see them clipping through bodies and walls.

I didn't want to spoil for those who have not done the content yet, I am not that kind of Beam. They are a great enemy group to fight, tough, interesting design, etc. But the justification for their being there, garbage. Statesman (the hero character not Jack Emmert) would have ended that crap with a quickness just like he and the Phalanx delayed Foss's questionable expansion of Hero Corps or the Countesses Paragon Protector Program. Corporate policing never serves the public; in comics, in movies or in real life.

The content will answer your question (somewhat). Fight hard!
