Here's a fun idea: who's in?
We create a guild, on a random WoW server, and just have all of us Rocketeers in it. We'll all take Goblin engineering and make rocket boots and such.
Hell, we could even wait till expansion and all be goblins, heh.
....rocket boots? How about a Warburg rocket? Warburg is a PVP zone in City of Heroes that you go to to aquire the parts to build and launch a rocket.
p.s.: we have rocket boots, too. The recepie for them have gotten very expensive because of the Iron Man movie
p.p.s.: this is a posting I made this morning at MechWarriorLeagues.com this morning.
...I'll stick with my 4 year old City of Heroes account. I have 35 Level 50 heroes with more in developement.
As others are working off a list of reasons here's mine
A: With BILLIONS of possible looks no one looks the same from the costume to the color of powers.
B: Flaming swords will automaticaly fade in a short time from non-use as do the maces, guns, axes, shovels(!) and other things.
C: No complaints about the interface. I can't describe it, you have to experence it.
D: Zone maps are zoom and enlargable with your and your teammates positions on the map located.
E: No narration, well certain missions have cut scenes.
F: ...race selection? LOL!! In the caracture generator you can create ANYTHING your little heart desires. From Cat girls to Dragon people, Wolfs , to fat old men(I have all of those )
G: Pets. From Controllers and Defenders with as many as 5 at a time to Mind Masters with 6 pets, undead, thugs, mercs, robots with their own enhancable abilities plus temporary ones your a team all by your self.
H: A Market system where we can buy and sell items and yes, you can play the market to make extra ingame cash called Influence
I: Latest Issue(called that because it's comic book based) you have the ability to write your own storelines of up to 3 missions in length. There have been 16 issues so far.
J: Scalable difficulty, From the levels of the enemys to the number of enemys to weither you have an Arch Villan(or Hero in the case of City of Villians) you pick your own poison as it were.
K: A new auto sidekicking system where differences in level of team members are automatically compensated for.
I could take this to Z but I won't, this is why I see City of Heroes as far superior to other MMORPG.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGF0MYORADE this is a great example of the possibilities in costume design. It also shows many of the evil doers you can take on.
My global name is Ar Kain and I play in the Virtue server. Hit me up here if you want a free trial. While somewhat limited you can get the feel of the game, the costume generator is fully accessable, though.
Plus if any that take me up on the offer of a trial upgrade to a full account I get a free month
