Friday with(out) Means - March 19th, 2010: Every Day I'm Hustlin'

[Reacon]

I'll just add my thoughts about the Atrox head.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the eyes, personally. I think they look alright. I'm more concerned with the facial expression of the head. I'm assuming that the facial features aren't animated, and we're stuck with whatever expression is currently on the face of our characters once we convert to the new heads. If that is wrong, and the expressions will change for some reason, then disregard this. However, one thing I liked about the Atrox heads up to now is that they are the MOST expressive characters in the game. Even their emotes are more fun to watch! The facial expression on the old head looked sad and dumb. Now, the new head completely lost the sad look and seems a little more intelligent, as well.

Granted, there are a FEW Atrox heads which have an intelligent look to them (the white bearded one and the black bearded one, for example), but most have a really goofy facial expression to reflect their backstory as being designed for strength as opposed to intellect. I really hope that the rest of the Atrox heads will stick to the character of the breed as strong, dumb, yet lovable (sometimes even sad) slabs of walking meatshield!

I approve this message.

If you stop doing whatever it is your devs are doing / not doing, and have them spend 100% of their time making the female characters in this game unbelievably hot, I will re-subscribe to this game.

have them spend 100% of their time making the female characters in this game unbelievably hot

only if they make all the male characters unable to speak.

[Amosco]

only if they make all the male characters unable to speak.

I don't think wervr is concerned with whether or not his character can talk as long as his character can still spam the crotch grab emote in a steady rhythm!

Instead of complain about the atrox head that's about to cry...

Can we expect the character model to be updated and given some proper arms? I don't like my fixer having bingo wings...

And will the AI be updated? How about pathing? The multitude of other broken "features"? New players shouldn't be inheriting old bugs.

When will we see new dungeons? I mean dungeons, too. Not another instanced canyon. You can stop with the canyons.

When will we see new content? By new, I mean new ideas, too. No more Xan, aliens, or cultists. And definitely NO MORE CANYONS.

He could be wondering why pizza tastes awesome.

why does pizza taste so awesome?

couldn't agree more!

I think it'd be a cool idea to make a froob friendly RK TL4 dungeon (like totw/biomare) that gives some storyline into the shadowlands/aliens/LE/Xan to entice the froobs coming in after engine implementation. maybe even have stuff that drops like shattered/rusty alien/SL/LE weapons and armor that aren't much better than regular RK weapons and armor, but get froobs interested. maybe even some defected symbiants.

as an example, a froob running around with a refurbished perennium weapon thats brown and rusty would be hilarious, and might make them want the real thing. (I'm talking about new people that may be coming in after engine, not the diehard froobs)

[BugsCoT]

I want to see more Xan and alien content like I want to see Rosie O'Donnel naked. New content, new ideas, new threats, new stuff!

I don't care if a new expansion uses nothing but human derivatives, mutants and machines. In fact, that might be a refreshing change of pace. Monsters and myths need not apply!

[Keldros]

WTB more content related to Truspace, Sol Banking, etc.

also: ads on the billboards. I've been staring at those static Dreadloch ads for a few years now, and it would be nice to see a movie trailer for "Grim Gofle Reaper VII", ads for the new Bronto Burger combo meal, etc.

In terms of RK dungeons, I've always wanted to see a sequel to the subway. I love the subway, it's atmosphere, it's mobs, it's layout (though an alternate path or two would be awesome). There are a lot of blocked, collapsed or downright un-openable doors in it though. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's wanted to see beyond them. In particular, I've always wondered what was through the one abmouth guards. He was obviously spawned by some mad scientist's experiments, and likely the other monsters too, but by whom? Perhaps discovering the secret of the subway could lead us to a better understanding of how cyborgs are created and their psychology, as well.

omg a Rick Ross fan. _~~~

I love this idea and would add that a retooling of the cyborg barracks and maybe the smugglers den could also help build a story line that lasted over several tls

FC should buy rights and lets us watch MSTK3 episodes.

But, seriously. They could at least come up with a silly slideshow or do some commissions from Newgrounds for short flash movies.

[Kinkstaah]

Ads from ME2 were great. Some of those would be awesome in AO. This game has capacity for video billboards too - why not?

Also, please preserve facial expressions. I chose my characters for a reason. Unless it can be changed. I know it works in AOC, I saw you guys do it there. Would like a feature from Matrix Online (RIP) where you could actually set the mood of your toon, which affected posture, walking/running/idle animations, etc. As well as facial expressions when fighting, when idle, etc etc.

Was nice. Get it in!

/Win

....although, it may slow down the leveling and reduce teaming as every1 would be just standing around watching

So no change then, so long as they put a billboard on Kite Hill...HAW!

Yes, more mutants, borgs, humans and the like. Space aliens and weird proto-humans are getting kind of boring.

[dustmouse]

He, anyone else think the new Atrox head looks slightly Chinese?

(disclaimer: no time right now to read the whole thread, so no idea if anyone said it first)

[Ceenah2]

nice Atrox head, although I dont like Atrox
But....after all the improve graphics on Atrox & misc, u guys does not even make an improve graphic for Leet?
