Black Zot

I too, would love to see multiple pet appearance options, but for once coding really isn't the biggest hurdle. Developing a bunch of extra art assets and possibly new animations to go with them is one heck of a project.

Blame the accountants. If it still works, why not use it until it breaks? :P Also, it's a lot harder to steal those heavy CRTs.

My Bots/Traps MM, re-created from the original game, is named Remo Connor. I also have SomeGuyInANiceSuit, who is exactly what the name says.

It boggles my mind when people start agitating for "more community input" on software development of any kind. Since when has multiplying the number of cooks in the kitchen ever improved the food? (Hint: NEVER.) Crowdsourcing software simply does not work. The vast majority of people, even among those who are good at spotting actual flaws and bugs, know diddlysquat about actual programming. Yes, these people occasionally come up with a good suggestion that's actually practical to implement, but it's far more likely that a suggested change will outright break something. Unless you want CoH to look like Dilbert's company made it, back off and let the development team work.
