If Super Strength gets the Propel-random-items then that is just too awesome.
Just goes to show you, people will go to any length to tempt you back sooner. =D

The power customization aspect of i16 opens up a world of choices. I can't tell you how many of my characters don't have the colors they wanna because
their power colors clashed with it. I highly doubt the actual Vyperpunk would tolerate pink circles about her for long without going into a homicidal rage.
The whole villain hero fairness thing irks me a lil bit. Moreso now that they've gimped red side a fair bit though subtlety so. MA/AE has made the butt
cape argument moot though. I would like to see dual pistols available on blue though... and controllable pets for that matter.
Per the Devs loving farmers: Pretty sure the Devs know that no matter what they do farmers and farming will continue. This, I'm seeing, is more like a way
to pull them out of the public view. They'll still be there but there'll be less requests for fillers and fewer broadcasts about farm teams looking for
members.
Most farmers, worth their salt, can solo a mob spawned for 6 people with little difficulty. They're also greedy and really rather not have to share the inf
with 5 other people. Before AE, farming was somewhat of a 'private club' that would occasionally suck in PUG players just to fill the empty spaces to
up the mob size for optimal gain. This'll just move them back away from the limelight.
All in all I'm pretty *squee* over i16 myself. More for the power customization than anything else.

to "Going Rogue is i16" before Posi shot that down, that I think they're somehow disappointed that it's not despite no one in the devs
confirming it as such.
Hence, dual pistols (and demon summoning) will come with the issue they've been hyped with. The fact it's not the next one doesn't strike me as a
big thing. We just have to be patient and all.
That said, I remember at least three months ago, I said I had two alt ideas that required the Devs to make proliferation and a new powerset entirely.
Specifically, an Elec/Shields Scrapper and a Dual Pistols Blaster. Once Going Rogue comes out, I'll have both. And the new power proliferation has shown a
lot of stuff that I can do now. My only complaint is that the devs are holding firm on the maximum slot per server limit. :lol:

Y'know what would be awesome..is if there was some way you could transfer empty slots from other servers to the server you actualy want to play
on..Y'know? kinda like Musical slots with empty slots. You wouldn't have more slot as per say..just..ones you scavanged from other servers
Just my 2 bits
- Wiregeek - 07-18-2009
I'd have Maximum Number of Slots X # of servers worth of slots on virtue *cough*

Who wouldn't?
I am very intrigued to see how this works out. Especially the Pistols (Swiss Army Knife-Rifle isn't quite as fun).

Feeling a bit gypped by the Devs quite a bit lately, might just be that I'm moody to begin with which is not uncommon for me.
For instance: 15 Mo vet reward Angelic wings vs Valkyrie pack Prestige wings. IMHO the pack wings look more like angel wings than the vet reward ones that
closely resemble pigeon wings. They've been in effect a while now, I know this, but it's a reward that could use an update to match advancements
they've made.
I'm going to try not to rant mentioning this next instance. AE/MA n00b Khelds. I banged out my first 50 in under 3 months. All that work made me PROUD to
have access to WS & PB. Like I'd accomplished something great. Players unlocking them in days? Yeah, interest in lvling my WS just went to the very
bottom of my 'to do in game' list.
On the other hand...
There was a GM (Game Manager not Giant Monster) in the Hollows helping a n00b get unstuck from a spawn point this morning. I was about ready to call foul till
I noticed it was a lvl 1 with the GM before the name.
That really was somewhat of a smack in my Vet elite class bitching right there. I may not be an *censored* 50 that excludes players based on level or knowledge
of the game but I find myself wondering at which point did I forget that I used to just be happy to play CoX?
