I can't remember how to get the video to show here.

Judging by the video, you run a lot of squishies then huh?  😃

 

Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game...

All of them have the same battle cry: "What could possibly go wrong?"

 

It also serves as my less serious "Ready!" response whenever the lead asks if we're good to go into some death trap or other.

 

I used this on Live to great effect.

I use mine to announce ambushes. I watch the NPC channel and when I hear chatter from the ambush, I'll hit the battlecry. It's usually some variation of "Incoming!", "I heard interceptors.", "Pretty sure we're being chased." Etc in the tone of the character's personality.

Every once in a while I'll let Builder Bill out of a base and when he gets a chance to nail some baddies he gives a strict warning... 

 

"STOP, OR I'LL BUILD YOU A PORCH!"

@Etched

I want this one to be "stop or I'll make you a porch" for the double entendre, but then, I'm primarily a redsider.

I remember an era of F10 cries when cut scenes became a thing and everyone was trying to put something smart into the response.

I'm terrible at coming up with battle cries for my characters, especially since many of them are more RP-oriented. And I have a hell of a time getting the editor to let me actually give them one if I do end up thinking of one down the line.

 

Of the ones I do have:

Ruff Ruff Boom - AR/Devices Blaster who is basically Moon Moon with a gun: "Ruff Ruff go boom boom!"

Lurking Monster - Monster (human) form WS: "Oogie Boogie!"

Horse Apples - Earth/Poison Controller: "Shit's about to go down."

Energizer Bunnie - Energy/Martial Blaster: "I just keep going, and going..."

Fortune's Told - Fortunata: "Here's your fortune, bitch!"

Global: @Valnara1; Discord Handle: @Valnara#0620

I primarily play on Everlasting, but you may occasionally find me on Indom. 🙂

Notable Characters: Apocolyptica - Demons/Storm MM; Lurking Monster - Human-Form WS; Environmentabot - Bots/Nature MM; Miss Fade - Ill/Traps Controller; Sister Apocalypse - Beast/Dark MM; Dr. Elaina Wrath - Plant/Rad Controller (Join the House of Wrath, and spread the word of science!); Ruff Ruff Boom - AR/Devices Blaster

My character Milford Whimple's battle cry is "Behave, you hooligans!"

 

His bio:

Milford Whimple is a chemist at the Paragon Potty Paper Emporium. One night, as he was working on a new sensitive skin formula, members of the Skulls broke in and tossed him in a vat of chemicals. When Whimple emerged, he found he had been endowed with super strength and invulnerability--and a nice lilac scent. He has dedicated his life to safeguarding the people of Paragon City from evil-doers and developing the softest yet toughest potty paper to protect Paragon's posteriors.

I love that the caption needs a caption to ensure the obviousness of the obvious thing is obviously noted

There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.
