  1. Wolverine voice actor, as @El D states, is the same voice actor as before. No idea why it sounds so different, unless that was an early effort. I realize there might be age to the actor's voice, it's been nearly 30 years after all, but I'd have thought the voice director would have made more effort. I also realized watching the clip that I've grown used to hearing Steve Blum as the voice of Wolverine. Magneto voice actor, as well as Cyclops voice actor had to be replaced due to death in both cases. Not just kids! I was only a few years out of college when this premiered, and I'd have much preferred eggs and peanut buttered toast while watching If the trailer is anything to go on, this looks great. It will take a bit to get used to the different voices, but I understand 3 decades necessitate the difference. Hopefully, in the future Respeecher and similar tools will change that. I don't think I'm spoiling anything 27 years later by saying with Charles out of the picture (the end back in '96) this might lead to a parallel to the comic version of The Age of Apocalypse, where Magneto leads the X-men and others in a charge against the world takeover by Apocalypse. It's possibly my favorite X-men arc, though if done, I'm sure it will be much less violent than the comics.
  2. You've identified the problem I've been having. I don't know the real words, if there are any, for a variety of costume parts from the game. For example, my retro-future space ranger, Major Ray Gunn, uses what the game calls "fury wings" along the side of his helmet, but this apparently is not a real world term for that part, if it even has one.
  3. I've said it before, but it's worth repeating: the four members of the Korean W.I.S.D.O.M. hero group: Foreshadow Mirror Spirit Rose Star Spark Blade The first two to move them from their relegated status as mere trainers, the latter two because we were promised them, and they've never actually made it to the game.
  4. Make Talos a hub for your movements and you're likely to encounter 1 or more of Malta's Kronos Titans. Two weeks ago, I was part of a league that tackled an outbreak of 20 of them. Also, make sure you have the Event Messages dialog (blood red text) in whatever chat tab you monitor. It will announce when GMs and events happen, with the exception of the unusual GM "Sally" of Croatoa, as stealth is all important to her.
  5. I'll simply add that Paladin can spawn without the construction project as well, and he'll still head for that spot. You can get a badge for this one, and if I recall correctly you won't if the one being constructed is active.
  6. What I've seen of Pedro onscreen I like, so understand that I'm not saying he's stupid but he's not the first name that comes to mind when I'm trying to think of actors who can pull off super-genius. Guess that makes this his chance to demostrate that he can act against type. I don't really know the other three. I kind of wish they'd found good actors who kind of look like brother and sister, but I guess that's the hair and makeup department's job. What I'm most concerned about is that this is attempt number...ahem...4...to bring the Fantastic Four to the screen, and as all the others were weak sauce, though to varying degrees. They desperately need a win this time. The muddle that was Phase...ahem...4 was such a mixed bag that I'm concerned about the F4 and Phase 5. Specific to the poster: Do the F4 now have a robot in the comics? That's a mildly interesting wrinkle. Is Reed Richards going to be the MCU's new go-to big brain now that Tony is gone and Shuri is likely too busy being Black Panther and queen? Mid-Century Modern furniture: is that a subtle reference to the year F4 premiered?
  7. So did you find something that accomplished that? Your team shots seem to imply "yes".
  8. At least it was a clean death.
  9. Yeah, I've been frustrated with that repeatedly. I'd very much like to see the next contact (Eagle Eye in this case), unlock and remain unlocked after I acquire the phone number of the first contact (Shauna). So if it takes extra levels, I could still do the second contact without having to run to Ouroboros to handle it. And, of course, have the contact I'm currently working with continue to level up with me until I clear all missions, but I realize that's very wishful thinking.
  10. Welcome! If the "glass cannon" is describing the "squid" form, it's kind of normal, though I suspect someone has posted in the archetypes section a build that will harden it. Have you made it to your "lobster" form yet? It's a good off-tank, and in some designs, a good tank. And switching forms is pretty quick, which is probably why KC4800 was suggesting relying on your "squid" form. The speedy conversions reminds me a bit of the druids from my WoW days.
  11. Ripley was wrong...there was another way to make sure.
  12. What guides in the selection of characters for the vid? Some seem obvious to record, others, not as obvious.
  13. That is only the second character I've seen to make good use of that aura. Well done.
  14. What's the name, Troo, and what server?
  15. You do realize the greatest one we'll never recall because it was erased from history, yes? At least, I think it was. All I have left is a polaroid with these slowly fading feet where people ought to be.
  16. That's reasonable. I was going to add Doc Savage as a hero mastermind, but his five "brothers" as well as his cousin Patricia are definitely in the allies camp as opposed to henchmen.
  17. Am I remembering correctly? Giant Monster have traditionally been vulnerable to police drones? I ask because I've recently observed some of the Malta Titans moving close enough to the police drones near the Talos Tram entrance that I was sure we'd lose them, but we didn't. It made me wonder if I'd forgotten they were invulnerable to drone teleportation, or if there'd been a change.
  18. Does no one else find it ironic that a guy named Monty Haull is asking what we have on hand?
  19. Choice paralysis? Never. I can only afford the low-quality stuff.
  20. I don't use Gmail, but I have heard rumor they have disposable email addresses. If so, this might prove a way to do it. That said, if they do have them, read setup carefully. Some disposable have a short life, some remain until you remove them. And there could be something between.
  21. That pairing does work very well. Of the handful of MMs I have, it's my favorite.
  22. I'm actually only posting ones that, generally speaking, cannot fight well alone. Mad Hatter, of course, uses mind control to gain minions. Joker definitely works with minions, but he's incredibly dangerous as a solo act as well. As is Two-Face, Bane, Magneto, Gorilla Grodd, etc. I suppose there's a reasonable argument to be made for Professor X being a mastermind over the X-men on the side of heroes, though like Magneto, he's very dangerous as a solo act as well.
  23. This one has been a tough wrangle: Vincent Poe, my young dark/dark corruptor. Early attempts produced dramatically wrong results. Even now, I'd say the system only understands about 80% of what I'm after, but at least it's keyed in thematically now. I've yet to get it to understand the concept of the white-faced goth look without it immediately adding a boatload of undesired extras to the look, and it seems to have no idea how to render a brass collar, so I had to leave those off, but these latter works were an improvement.
