Suggestion - gardeners and lanscape crew

[Zappalina]

Standing around in Atlas and going through other zones, there's never any gardeners or landscape crew, people to water the plants etc. but you have a lot of flowers in pots etc.

I would suggest adding those - landscape crew and gardeners.

I'm afraid we can't permit any potential Devouring Earth infiltrators.  Perhaps we could hire a few heroes with plant or nature powers...

Who knows? Maybe there are supers with nature powers that chose not to register as super heroes but instead maintain Paragon City's greenery and speedsters that handle trash collection? Which is why you never see any dump trucks either.

... ok, that I want in game. Every once in a while, you just see this blur... and the trash bags /cans along the street suddenly disappear or are emptied. Not constantly, just enough to be a "... wait, did I see that?" easter egg.

And you have all of the neatly-manicured hedges in the hazard zones that regular civilians don't travel to. And the same goes for all of the non-abandoned office maps you find in the hazard zones; someone's getting the janitorial staff in and out to do their work, and I don't think the regular mobs in the zones would be interested.

For some reason, I thought this was a Mastermind Powerset suggestion. I am a little let down it wasn't.

I smell a day job possibility: Gardener.  Earned by signing off while standing in one of several designated gardens and parks.   Grants a limited number of "tree of life" uses at a base level.  (as opposed to the plant heroes that can slot the power)

 

Or perhaps that smell is just chemical fertilizer.
