This! I want to see more of that guy. He looks cool! Put him on the pedestal!

I like the swish Praetorian office interiors out of the "regular" maps, but when I think about really cool unique interiors I always go to the steam-filled pipe section of the Skull warehouse in the finale of Sondra Costell's arc. More cool setpieces like that in arcs please!

I haven't kept up with current comics for a couple of years (seriously, it's an insanely expensive hobby) but I don't remember thinking much of 2010s X-Men outside of Gillen's run on Uncanny. Personally I've never been huge on them being a part of the larger Marvel world. Huh. Does her son Proteus figure in at all?

As far as I know if you grab the Double XP booster, it'll expire in one hour of playtime. So if you get it, play for half an hour, then log out for the day, when you come back tomorrow you'll have half an hour of it left. I think. Maybe. Can you actually stack them like that, though? I always thought you could only top back up to 1 hour. If not I have been Doing It Wrong for almost a year!

My favourite comic series of all time. I have no idea how Busiek comes up with concepts like the Resistors or the counterculture music heroes.

Awesome update! I'll join the train for asymmetrical shoulders while I'm at it. Now I just need a 50/50 chest and legs pattern option...

No problem - sorry for the delay, costume file is attached! ElectricLady.costume

I'm an intensely uncreative person and most of my costumes end up looking very ugly, but I gave it a bash. Since you were set on the idea of electric I decided to go with something that made me think of the black/yellow Electricity hazard symbol. And since it's me, it ended up being technology-based and also kind of ended up being a bit more like a bee than anything else. I think I was subconsciously influenced by Tackle from Kamen Rider Stronger. But she's the Electro-Wave Human so that's perfect I guess! I kind of gave up when it came to the gloves and just added the big gorilla-esque tech ones because I love them and put them on everything I can. You might prefer another set!

I like the idea of facing multiple simultaneous threats that aren't big time universe enders (or even world-enders, separately) but are still dangerous enemies that require something be done about them, and combined make something really formidable. The Sinister Six idea! Feels a bit more in line with the majority of the game as well, where any given zone has at least three villain groups causing trouble at any given time.

Had this issue this morning, but just got home from work and it's all working fine for me now. Thanks for the quick turnaround! My characters could use the Day Job badge time, anyway!

I would really love some form of single-pistol powerset rather than having to go Dual PIstols all the time, with the choice between more reserved/"realistic" animations or the flashy Wanted/Equilibrium-style stuff like DP has. Along the same lines, a single-sword style that has pokey stabby fencing animations so that I can use the Rapier weapon skin without having to pick Dual Blades. I'm actually enjoying my current DB character a lot, but it's not perfect! Completely correct, objective fact, print this out and frame it, etc. Amazing comic, one of the best ever. This makes me think of some of The Thing's powers in the sadly-defunct Marvel Heroes, like "Bronx Beatdown", where you could whack people with a parking meter, "Downtown Discus", where he threw a manhole cover like Cap's shield....I want that! Put that in!

Yeah, they're great. I think a big part of what makes them good is that we get to actively see them progress alongside us via their joining Vanguard and so on.

While his death was extremely lacklustre in my eyes, I'm not too bothered about him staying gone. Seriously, read the Top Cow comic run - guy's a total ass! But then again, in that comic, so is everyone except Citadel... If he was to be brought back in any fashion I'd prefer it to be Ouro content. It would be cool if there was some form of story arc centered around his past, maybe his initial time fighting crime in Paragon, so you get him in his original costume, get to meet some of the other heroes of the time, etc. I'd enjoy that, but just zooping him back into life, nah. Definitely against the idea of Tyrant taking over for him as well. He's not the kind of villain that can or should be redeemed, in my opinion. EDIT: I do like the idea others have already said about Hero-1 becoming that new figurehead. Make him the Atlas trainer!

Welcome to the game and to Everlasting! Don't worry too much about not having a firm grasp on things straight away, everyone is generally very helpful and there's tons of great info to be found on the forums as well. You've already been linked the thread for SGs, but if you use Discord at all, there's also a channel for Everlasting SGs on the Homecoming Discord that may have some listings not here on the board: https://discordapp.com/invite/cityofheroes Hope to see you out there!

I'm now in the precarious position of my reputation being just higher than my post count, and now I must struggle to maintain this. No-one post anything interesting that I would want to respond to until I've been given some more rep.

There's a couple of Sentai SGs on Everlasting that I've seen: The other is named Sentai Legion, doesn't seem to have a post on here but the recruiting officer is @Dudesoft in-game as far as I know. Other shards, I've no clue, sorry.

Due to Circumstances I've had a portable CRT TV sitting in my living room lately, so for the past couple of nights I've been trying to beat my scores on the original Point Blank games. They're really fun but my arms get tired, which is not fun. I really want to try some of the newer Samurai Shodown DLC characters, but I don't have a copy of the game anymore and can't really spare the cash for a new one just now. Boo!

Give me one good reason why I've never thought of this!

Did they at least scream "Here comes the Hotstepper!" when they did it?

I've seen Bug-Bite around when I'm out and about I always get a big kick out of the costume, really nice work!

The attack portion is done and you're not bound into the animation until it's finished - you can move, use another power, whatever, as normal. If you just do nothing, though, the animation will play in full. It's like an emote.

I've got some issues with them thematically, but in terms of pure gameplay I really like the Incarnate powers. It's cool to feel super powerful! That's why Prototype was always better than Infamous I get the complaint that they make non-Incarnate content too easy, but for me personally (I only have one Incarnate character) I spent 99% of my time prior to level 50 soloing and had no real issue, and now spend the majority of my time in Task Forces where everyone is jacked to the nines build-wise and so there's not much in the way of difficulty there either, so I can't say I've been overly affected by the game becoming even easier. I do agree it's probably not a good thing, but as I say it's not something that bothers me in my own gameplay that much. Also, in the content that actually does have challenge, the Incarnate powers go a decent way to making a terminal dumbass like me who couldn't build a Lego set, never mind a character, feel like I can hang with people who are actually tough and hit hard. My DPS may not be the greatest in the world, but hey, watch me throw this big lightning bolt at that group of mooks! I'm contributing!

The large majority of my characters get their powers from technology, ARE technology, or use some form of technology as an aid even if it isn't the source of their powers. So that means a whole lot of people in power armour or special suits of some kind, a bunch of robots, and as an example of the last one: I have an Electric blaster who's of Science origin (they got their powers in the ol' reliable lab accident) and is meant to have a fairly standard spandex look, but I gave them the Clockwork chestpiece from Chest Detail and wrote it as a kind of harness that helps them better channel and control their electricity. Technology! My other thing is if I'm making a character who doesn't use tech at all, they'll most likely end up as some kind of freaky or monstrous-looking thing. I love the idea of heroes who are scary or unsettling to look at, and so I've got more than a few insectoid characters running around. Making a Mutation origin? Slap some antennae on that sucker! There can never be enough bugmen with psychic powers! (I hate bugs in real life but I can't stop. Please send help)
