How can Radiation heroes justify using their powers?
Go0gleplex replied to Zombra's topic in General Discussion
Why single radiation out when a good portion of other powers have 'radiant' projection abilities, particularly fire, frost, dark, and earth...and the weather around storm guys is just awful...so much for those sunny days the weather guy was raving about. :p lol Clothing and building materials in Paragon are created with such in mind and lead underwear is popular. 😉 -
However, the takoyaki vendor mysteriously vanished mere minutes after the gates opened and has yet to be found.

That's....surprisingly good. ( Oo )

Wall. Plug. Spray with cold water until detached. :P

Well. THAT'S a new take on the Clone Wars saga. 😁

CITY WIDE FREE TACO DAY! (except for Vahz. They're toxic enough without help) :P
-
My kid worked Taco Bell for around six months and the after work stories I heard would have convinced me to never eat there again even if I hadn't sworn off on the place back in the 90's. Hot sauces...for those that consider 'pain' a flavor....or are closet masochists. lol Should drop a couple pallet loads of it off to the Freaks and Vahz. (thinking) On second thought, better not, they might try to weaponize it.

What would you do if you were a DEV?! (Fun Ideas Talks)
Go0gleplex replied to SSR's topic in General Discussion
Redo the majority of the Paragon map zones to make actual sense and give them a bit more synergy so that together they feel like a cohesive city rather than a bunch of areas just slapped together without rhyme or reason as it were. Don't get me wrong...for game purposes they serve the intended use as mobility obstacles but little else. The Rogue Islands are better laid out with Praetoria being even better organized. More pet choices for MMs. More Villain story arcs by zone with mini-bosses and 3-8 linked missions. Frostfire in the Hollows is a good example. -
Sure...not big news to some...but not often ya see a Vamp running around Atlas in broad daylight. lol Makes one wonder what nefarious deeds he might be up to.

I can see bringing back the zone but rather than as a beginner zone it is more an upper-mid level dealing with shivan and arachnos remnants lurking around trying to retain their foothold. And of course Crey is there for 'research' purposes while the Family is trying to corral the construction contracts and such by any means necessary. Potential is there for expansion and I do miss the zone which I think is better organized than Atlas which suffers from trying to cram too many different land use types into a smaller area.

If City of Gyros was a real restaurant what would be your order?
Go0gleplex replied to Octogoat's topic in General Discussion
Lamb moussaka, saganaki, and a greek salad. Hold dessert since I don't want to waste the extra insulin needed...(yet another Nemesis plot! >< ) -
While I'm not motivated by any bias, I'm very much in agreement with Shocker in general. I try very much to stay away from any of the existing comic/manga literature in terms of my toons in looks, name, and story tag both because it's a rule so that the legal beagles stay away from the game and out of simple respect for the IP of the originators. That said however, the genre being what it is, there is always going to be some toon somewhere that will be similar enough in design and concept that comparisons to said IP protected characters is simply unavoidable and can fall victim to the overzealous rules-lawyer-types running around without their chill pills. 😉 lol It's fine to be a fan of a comic/manga character...but it's always better for the game to be as original as possible with your own and avoid visits and/or nasty-grams from the LIB (Lawyers in Black). 😄

Who is your favorite Praetorian NPC character?
Go0gleplex replied to twozerofoxtrot's topic in General Discussion
For me it's Warrant. Beat cop trying to make good only to get his ticket punched by a guy who's ego is as big as the inferiority complex he overcompensates for. That particular NPC I seriously despise and tend to take the kill option out of simple principle. -
Or the V's that are pronounced as W's. Via is Wee-ah or Vita being Wee-tah for example. 😉

Your best bet likely would be to talk to one of the already established video game type Cons that host games/game rooms and see about working CoH into their event schedule or venue space. Having ran a Con for two years out of pocket with just my game group as staff I can honestly say that the hours are long, the work needed to keep it all going smoothly is exhausting, and it is really easy to over-extend beyond your budgeted finances. We rented several buildings at our county fairgrounds for around 400$ for the weekend with on-site camping & RV hook-ups in '92 & '93. 1st year was a bust but second year we managed to recoup our losses from the 1st barely. Too much work so my group opted not to continue it. Looked into maybe organizing a local Con here last year the available venues want a couple thousand per day plus a 1 million $ damage insurance policy for up to space only able to handle up to 350 people. And as mentioned, cost to attend is a nightmare anymore for most Cons. One I attended 18 yrs ago for 25$ plus airfare, hotel, and car rental is now at a couple hundred just to get in the event door plus extra for any games you want to register for which to me is simply robbery since it's just to make extra bank beyond costs.

The real reason Kallisti Wharf has no enemies.
Go0gleplex replied to BasiliskXVIII's topic in General Discussion
Given how futuristic Kallisti looks...maybe a good fit would be based off Scully and Mulder from X-files. Dealing with super cryptids is just another Tuesday for them. lol Or Francisco and Sikes from Alien Nation...especially fits given the presence of the Rikti and other alien types. -

Go0gleplex replied to BasiliskXVIII's topic in General Discussion
Funny... I had thought that Fish and Miller from the Barney Miller series I watched back in 1975 based in a NYC PD station on East 6th St in Greenwich Village. Hal Linden as Barney Miller and Abe Vigoda as Phil Fish. I recognized Freitag as Joe Friday (Jack Webb) from Dragnet...only the original 1954 black and white version / 1967 color re-make I remember watching rather than the '87 comedy. Guess that explains why I couldn't place Becktree... lol -
Well...if it's an alignment talk/comparison it's fairly easy. Hero = Lawful Good Vigilante = Chaotic Good verging Neutral Rogue = Chaotic Neutral verging Evil Villain = Neutral/Chaotic Evil or Hero : Upholding all laws while doing the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of people Vigilante : Doing good knowing that sometimes the law and some people will suffer for it Rogue : Doing whatever for their own 'good' unconcerned by the small things like collateral damage/casualties. Villain : Gaining the most riches & power possible and/or burning the world to the ground while being the only one left standing.

Janitor closet + Super Power Hang out = MASSIVE Bio-hazard! Probably something even worse than Hami-Prime & Hami-Praetoria combined. :P lol
-
I'm in the same line of thought as Bio. While there is evidence of baseline humans having something of a 6th sense relative to heightened perception and intuition actionable or manifesting psychic powers outside of that would be considered abnormal by the majority of the baseline human population and therefore labeled as a mutation or freak to the more petty sorts. That said, there is a plausible possibility (theoretically speaking) that with the right sort of intense training the inherent 6th sense type abilities could be trained up to a more actionable level...though at best you'd see more of a form of telekinesis, empathic reading, and mental shielding than those showcased in the game's powerset. End of the day it really depends on your preferred narrative because in theory it could be either.

Isn't Perez already a zoo being essentially closed off with all the animals (mobs) running amuk? lol
