Dogs Die in Hot Cars - I Love You Cause I Have To The early 2000s were amazing for music. Now we all listen to retro skiffle. What didn't we do to deserve this?!

England trail New Zealand by 64 runs with 5 wickets remaining It's all very exciting.

I heard somewhere that some people are doing pie with reduced pastry! Just the lid. What the very F? It's a scandal! A disgrace! Of course, Cottage Pie never had any pastry at all, but we'll overlook that. Where does a nice Crumble sit in this discussion, anyway? If I were pushed I'd probably say pie, since you can have pie for your main course AND pie for desert. NOM!

Heh! That's what I thought, too.

I'll wager it means about the same as 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42.

If you want to keep the poster up-to-date, just remove the currency symbol. 99 what? 99 peanuts?

Yep. I dumped Rage. The downside isn't worth it. 🙂

Irony?

Heraclea loved a lot of the music I do. I was browsing the "Return of the Son of Jukebox" thread and his signature has a bunch of ... I think they're supergroup base and architect codes. Presumably his work? Certainly worth exploring, and (to the devs) perhaps saving, somehow, in honour of Steve.

IMHO People have to make the game tricksy like this because the standard method (difficulty selection) is boring.

... unless you dump it.

Someone mentioned it in another thread, so here it is: Faith No More - Be Aggressive

Mods.

The post literally says it can be a copy of your original character aka no change.

Should be a sound effect, but the problem is that there are so many possible hero-types that a single sound effect wouldn't be appropriate for many of them. I don't know how the sfx could be improved. I prefer more mundane sounds than the kapow things we have, but thankfully, we can mod it! 🙂

I don't want to derail the thread, but I am confused about the timeline as I play the game - particularly the later events when you're probably max level. I remember that crey stuff was around 50 from the original game, but the extra content boggled my poor ickly brainypops 😞

Isn't CoH set in 2005? I mean, it's way before all the bad stuff happened!

I was thinking about Rage as an animation and how literature/graphic novels do rage. Specifically two Rages: Jekyll and Hyde and The Hulk So my suggestion is that the Rage power has an alternate costume that you switch to during your Rage. That costume slot could contain a copy your regular costume (AKA a "no change" flag), OR it could contain a new costume which you switch to for the duration of the Rage. Perhaps you could have a costume change animation of your choice that triggers first, though that might be a bit crap in the middle of a fight. You would still have Rage's regular glow. Another suggestion regarding Rage is for the Rage Crash - your character gets a limp for a while (not one that affects your movement, but you look lame/tired for the duration of the crash). The idea behind this is to give a visual indication of whatever effect your character has, rather than stacking yet another glowy aura on you.

I like that - what would your solution be? I'd propose; changing the name of the current set to RAGE and tweak it so Rage is a more prominent feature, so the set has a good damage boost for brief periods. Then add another set called Super Strength that has lower, but more reliable damage. Alternatively, there could be a whole suite of new strength sets to really add some variety to the concept, since there are so many strong comicbook heroes - or this variety could be added as part of the power cusomisation.

A lot of the game seems to be like this, which is great because you're not trudging through tomes of lore - but it's bad because you don't know what's going on. But that's good because you don't want to spoil the story, but it's bad because you don't get the story at all. In summary, I'd like know enough backstory about each faction to know why they exist and where. What they're upto and why is something we should discover over time through the missions.
