Title: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 01, 2011, 02:10PM
I don't know if many of you have played or are playing, but thanks to JeanGrey777, I'm officially addicted lol. Just wondering if anyone else plays this. I've got two characters, Rogue and Gredin. :)
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Polygone on September 01, 2011, 02:16PM
I play it as well :), I do need to reinstall it though, I have/got two characters, Jean grey as the mind (Yes, she is in phoenix outfit, but with giving her fire I reduce her health to almost nothing, which I dont want, even though thats absolutly true in the comics xD)

And Black Widow, as that guy with the sword (I figured it look good on her :D)

Which Powerset did you give Gredin btw?

Im pretty sure we share the same server as well (not postive, but in the EU server, if thats a diffrent server, there are tons of people speaking English, while you would think they would speak German or french etc..)

We should try to meet up sometime :D
Title: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 01, 2011, 02:21PM
That would be cool. And yeah I'm sure everyone is on th same server. We'll just have to find out. Gredin has the fire attacks. I didn't think the whole mystical powers would fit him. I just got him up to lvl 15 today. When you get it installed, email me: Rogue@Scabbia3 or Gredin@Scabbia3. I'll be on tomorrow, maybe tonight. :)

No problem, i'm glad that you liked it =), and i have 1 char lol, Jean Grey with the Mind Archetype, level 14, still training her, and i'm thinking between a mage char and a blade char. i'm still deciding XD. and as for Jean's costumes, i have her Wolverine & The X-Men outfit (with Long hair, i don't like the shor hair, that's... not Jean lol) and The Phoenix Outfit.

I played it back when it first came out when you actually had to pay. And I didn't really like it at all. I found the customization was fantastic! But I hate the overall look of the game. I find it a bit childish, or more likely to comicbook style. I play City of Heroes, and that is most likely why I dont like Champsions online because I played COH for so many years before that when I played Champsions I hated it.

I think you can make 2 per account but Im not sure.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: MarvelFan12345 on September 01, 2011, 05:33PM
You can make 2 characters per free acount. I started and its really fun! I made a Jean character called Prean Grewell (her name is a mix of Jean and Prue Halliwell from Charmed!). She has strong psychic powers with her trademark red hair and green eyes. Her costume is a modern X-Uniform; yellow and blue with a Phoenix emblem on her belt. JeanGrey777 says its like her WATXM costume.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 01, 2011, 06:12PM
Yeah. You only get two character slots. You can buy Cryptic Coins to get more character slots though. I change Rogues outfits each time I lvl up. So far, the best ones I've done, imo, were her 90's and her new legacy. Right now I have her in a "Iron Woman" type costume and a gothic/punk look. I made another account to make my fiance and Jean, but I do not like the mental powers. They seem to weak for me.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: MarvelFan12345 on September 01, 2011, 06:17PM
The mental powers are ok but get much better when you level them up. Rogue seems like a good choice to make. Did you get the hair stripe right lol? Also is she the bruiser type? One issue I noticed is that Jean/Prean's first power dissappeared from the slot and no longer is available in combat for some reason. Its really annoying since that was the good power imo.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 01, 2011, 06:38PM
I've never had that issue... and yeah, I have Rogue as a bruiser. It fits :) And theres only a few hairstyles that can do the Rogue look, but the ones I've done or have work well enough. I know playing in PvP, Rogue sucks and Gredin is awesome. lol.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Midnightphoenix on September 01, 2011, 07:08PM
Since I payed for my account awhile ago I have more then 2 slots. XD I just logged on with it and saw a couple of weeks ago and noticed I had more slots then two. I had a Jean based character aswell, but when I played you could have mixes of powers like fire, mental, wheather, etc
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 02, 2011, 07:49AM
That's nifty. :) I'm pretty happy with the free stuff. I'm actually surprised they even made it free to play.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Polygone on September 02, 2011, 07:54AM
Yep, they kinda remind me of Super hero squad, the most awesome stuff is basicly free, while SOME awesome items are to be paid for, the character customisation (even at free level) is still amazing!

Anyway, scabbia, im now re-installing the game, so Ill let you know when im online, chances are im at the powerhouse, and im pretty much the only Black Widow doing my dodge rolls xD
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 02, 2011, 07:57AM
lol Well if I'm Rogue, I'm stuck in the desert at the moment. I don't know where I left Gredin... I think in the middle of the Anniversary concert...
Title: Re: Champions Online

Title: Re: Champions Online

Im defnitly willing to give it a try, (when its free that is), but well..Lets just say Champions online is kinda like the game I have been waiting for all my life xD, Curious to see how COH works though
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: MystiCosmic on September 02, 2011, 12:23PM
Champions Online looks cool!!!....i will give it a try and try to make a character wit psychic and force powers !!!
Title: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 02, 2011, 01:55PM
If COH is free and downloadable, I'll try it. I like Champions though cause its pretty much like Guild Wars :)
Title: Re: Champions Online

ok, I sended an email to your Rogue scabbia :D

My current characters are jean and Dark Phoenix, xD

Post by: MarvelFan12345 on September 02, 2011, 03:01PM
That's awesome. I'd start an account right now but since the free version will eventually come I don't see the point. Are the characters close to the comic versions? Like does Jean have her psychic and/or fiery powers?

You're not allowed to copy existing characters in Champions Online. It violates the EULA.

Yup she does. Fire/ Tk Tp and has the costume look alikes. You dont get introuble unless the name is like the actual character in COH
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: MarvelFan12345 on September 02, 2011, 04:16PM
In Champions my Jean has the name of Prean Grewell and the codename of Revenant. I just made another character based off of Rogue. She has a variation on the current Utopia costume and her codename is Legacy.

blaw, there are like 400 duke nukems running around and just to play it safe, i give them completly diffrent names, its kind of a rule that still excists but is kinda forgotten :p  (thats what I think atleast :p) if they would go around banning people with excisting characters they would gave a ten year job at hand ;)
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: MarvelFan12345 on September 02, 2011, 04:18PM
I just saw the Hulk running around. He was obviously big and green with the purple trunks and his codename was "theincrediblehulk"
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Midnightphoenix on September 02, 2011, 04:24PM
I never new there was a rule about not making costumes of the characters. I think costumes dont matter, its the names they dont want. Although in Coh I dont see many characters based off of Marvel characters excpet for like all mine of course! XD And a few others you see randomly

Title: Re: Champions Online

I'll defenetly give City of Heroes a try when it becomes free! maybe it will be even better than Champions Online... Well, i guess that i'll find that out later, although i gotta say, you guys be careful with the costumes and bios you make, i already got reported for having Jean as a character (i changed her a lot and never got in trouble again). But don't worry, a good friend there gave me an advice, make the Marvel Gear that you want BUT DON'T use it at Millenium City, many admins are there, use it in places like The Desert, Canada, etc. AND in MC, wear Street Clothes, i made Jean's street clothes like her Wolverine & The X-Men outfit, but it's absolutly NOT copyrighted.
Title: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 02, 2011, 05:05PM
Yeah I just found that out not to long ago. I'm waiting to see if I'll be reported, then I'll be changing her to someone else. Actually, from what I read about all them violations, I could get reported for Gredin too. I'm pretty sure thats a name of both a band and character... From what I seen on Google lol. Its hard not to take a name from a copyrighted character. Theres too many out there.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Jeanfan321 on September 02, 2011, 06:16PM
Well ever since i was young i've always had these custom characters.There actually all based of Heroes,X-Men, and F4.

One of them is Alex and has the same exact powers as Jean.So i created her today and she was fun i love her ego projectile mind power.Really effective.So for now i love this game.I wanted to create a Storm like character but i have to buy something??

EDIT:Also her powers are pink how do i turn them blue?

The only way that you'll be able to turn them blue, is by becoming a Gold member, you know, paying a subscription

Yep, but its pretty much not possible to give your character the exact name, since it always says ''contains restricted words'', so instead of Dark Phoenix, I named her Dark Phoenixx, xD Its not the same name ;)

And well, I just call my Jean tymaca, but thats casual me :P, I had a custom character aswell, her name was Lady Mind, she was based off Psylocke (Purple all the way ;) ),  but I made her like a midget (no offense to tiny people!) I did raise her up to lvl 9 though, since she was pretty cool, but deleted her for my Dark Phoenix fanboyism (thats right, I dont like Jean, I like Dark Phoenix :) , I made a Jean character though :P, but its almost unavoidable because she's PERFECT to recreate :)

About the Telephatic stuff, I agree with JeanGrey777, they kinda look like XML1 Jean,

Its kinda funny though, My jean has the mind archetype and dies all the time (only till the sewer quest, she lost all her stars, although I couldnt care less for the stars, since I dunno what they do :P ), Dark Phoenix however (inferno archetype) only died twice :)

These all look really good! I would post mine but Im not on my CoH computer. But like I said they look great!
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Polygone on September 03, 2011, 07:18AM
Yep when its free I defnitly give it a try :), it looks good

Its just that my mom pays my game subcripsions (currently I got no supcripsions, however with the coming of Super hero squad online in Europe, Ill have one ;) ) So I cant really play COH :P

Its looks great though!

So I kinda checked it out and its like 10 euro's a month xD, thats all the money I get each month xD So I'll have to wait till its free ;)
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 03, 2011, 10:49AM
Does anyone know wether CoH will only have limited stuff for free like Champions?
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Dihan on September 03, 2011, 12:08PM
Well they're not going to give everything away for free. You'll be able to play the basics for free and purchasing stuff from the store will end up upgrading your account from Free to Premium, this means that every month you get a reward token which unlocks more aspects of the game that VIP players get as part of paying the subscription.
Title: Champions Online
Post by: Scabbia on September 03, 2011, 05:59PM
Ok. Sounds like Guild Wars. Either way, I'll try it. I wanted it when it first came out, but didn't have the money to pay monthly.

As bad as I want to get some Cryptic coins or whatever to have more power choices and stuff, I've decided not to. I'm in the process of redoing our bathroom and kitchen, so can't really afford it at the moment...  Although I want that freakin' fire flying effect bad lol
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Jeanfan321 on September 03, 2011, 07:42PM
Okay so i got to playing a little more today (Level 3 now)

And im on this mission where you have to fight bugs and save citizens.Let me tell you this is really hard at least for me cuz i have no idea what to do and it's so confusing.I talked to one of the officers (npc) cuz i was wondering if i could fly or whatever bt he sed the alien bugs have a signal where you can't use super speed,flight, or teleportation.

I guess i like it but this is so confusing Ima post pics later

Once its free imma make Poison ivy :D
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Dihan on September 04, 2011, 05:34AM
Teasing is fun. :P

Also, you're better off just making your own characters. Use your own creative juices. There's such a huge amount of costume pieces in the game that limiting yourself to something already made is just stupid. On City of Heroes if a name or costume is similar in appearance to something from Marvel, DC, etc then you'll end up having the name and/or costume reset to something generic and given a warning. The Arbiters patrolling City of Heroes are a lot more strict than the equivalent in Champions.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Polygone on September 04, 2011, 05:57AM
A bit of here and there customisation and I claim it my own costume xD (kidding :P)

Oh well, I dont think green skin and red hair point DIRECTLY to DC, so I'll be save :D
Its in my POV way more cooler playing with a hero that excists (X-men destiny, big middlefinger), but I suppose I can give custom characters a try ;)

Cant wait for ''freedom'' :), its gonna be realesed somewhere around 2011, so Ill expect that to be soon since its another 4 months and the year is done for :D

If im correct though, you download the game files for freedom right of their site right? It wouldn't make sense if they realese it another way
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Dihan on September 04, 2011, 06:07AM
I find that I get more attached to a character that I created from my own head rather than ripping off a pre-existing idea. Difference being that you create something you like rather than being forced into something someone else thought was cool (X-Men Destiny). Freedom was going to launch 1st September but there were still a few bugs that had to be ironed out with the Mac game client and the Paragon Store, but I suspect that it should launch before the end of the month. Though I'd prefer it to launch after 1st October because I get my 27 month Veteran Reward then.

And yes, you download the game client off their site.

About excisting characters btw, I just confirmed my thoughts, its really a broken rule

im playing champions online too. I have a'character named Jean. Lvl 24 Inferno. I first made her a jean grey, with a phoenix costume, then into dark phoenix, then green again, and dark again, then into white phoenix ,then into a pink fairy , then into a purple one and now she is nothing close to jean.....exept the name xD
i also saw COH is going free to play. They are doing it the same way as CO - champions online. Since cryptic studios the company who made CO also made COH.

Now returning to the Desert for my upper levels, so i can get some decent EXP such as 5,000,000 and ect, Uh i want to see other areas and i havent been online on any Blood Moon at all T_T

Post by: Scabbia on September 16, 2011, 09:20AM
I made a character based off Jean yesterday. It was nifty :) And then I made my fiance "Mr. Smith" and it crashed on me. :P lol. Gredin' looks awesome though, with the green fire effect. I figured since its too risky with the copyright stuff, I made my Jean character as my Mom, and my fiance will be Gambit, but since they don't have cards, I stuck him with guns, since my fiance is a gun freak. I'm gonna make my step-dad like Cyclops, but not just the optic blasts, with swords too. :) Its kinda cool how I did em though. With Jean, or my mom "Tonea", I made up her first costume, made the second casual and the third is Jean from The Last Stand. I'll propably do the same with the others. I'm also making Claire Redfield, from Resident Evil and Tifa Lockheart from Final Fantasy 7. Oh! And Giant Man and Wasp XD

You have Green fire? How? gold member?

Also, how you're gonna make Giant man and wasp? I always kinda figured exicting characters without they're proper power are kinda meh you know?

Im right now gonna make a Jill valentine, why? Cus im feeling like it xD

p.s Do you guys think Jill should have guns, or brawler (im making her battlesuit, cus that costume rocks)

We could also post a few screenshots of our characters :)

Uh would you both stop making characters from DC, Marvel or any other comic company or whatever. The game is about making ur own character. Creating it how you want it to be not copying. And Scabbia xD do not brag xD only i can xD j.k.

Also to make green fire, you just buy the Fire Fly travel power and then recolor it ( or in gold members' case its already unlocked however premium travel powers like Rainbow Flight, Phoenix Flight, Light Speed,Rainbow Flight cloud, Tornado Flight, Magic Carpet Flight and ect must be bought even Gold Members )
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Polygone on September 16, 2011, 09:41AM
But its sooo fuuunnn :P

Seriously though, Im having one of my own characters, and its a bit meh you know?

Besides, I never fully copy em, making a few customisations here and there ;)

But for fire fly effect, you need these C points right? Who you need to buy? So then it still costs money -_-

Oh well, im happy with the effects I currently have

EDIT : And I just noticed something


Kinect : Black flash with silver instead of gold, and no emblem     

The game is doing it as well -_- Not to mention Witchcraft, who in the tutorial lifts objects with a effect VERY similair to that of Scarlet Witch

Ok, not to sound rude, but like I said in my above post... Their "based" off the characters. I made my mom, who also has red hair >_< and just gave her powers and ONE costume that's similar to Jean. I made my Step-Dad and will be doing the same with him. I made my fiance, and doesn't have powers similar to Gambit but will have one costume that's "Similar." And actually, I have Rogue on my game because I like her and wanted her. I have several characters that I can make that I've already made up years ago, but I have 16 slots which is more than enough, so I'm having fun with it.

Let me make sense.

Marvel characters and etc are licensed and will get Cryptic into financial trouble. Scabbias mom aint licensed.

Bid for Power, a quake 3 addon, were sued for being a DBZ mod. Unless they removed the dbz chars and turned it all into custom chars. Unless u want to play, its important to stick to the EULA.

Ive been playing City of Heroes for many many years now, and Championsonline before it was free and I have always had Marvel and DC characters so you saying this doesn't really matter all that much as the names are really the only thing that matters, unless Championsonline has this rule, im sure COH does not. If you are running around with Storm for your name and you look like Storm you will get in trouble if your running around looking like Storm but have a name nothing liek Storm then there is no problem. Plus I dont play Championsonline any more because I hated how it looked and played.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: White Queen on September 17, 2011, 11:54PM
once city of heroes is free the first char im going to make is called Lady Psi , i know there are mental powers which has tp and small tk in it, if it has psionic powers im going to make her a TP,TK/Psionic type of character

@ MidnightPhoenix, actually, it does state that the name and look of the character can not be copyrighted material. So, yes, you can be reported if your character looks like Storm or whoever. (Which is why I have a casual outfit for Rogue and only use her "other outfits" during missions.)

@WhiteQueen, lol Yeah, 16 slots... and a extra one for every character that reaches lvl 40 :)

Polygone, I friend requested you like a week ago... >_< I hope I typed the right name. lol.
Title: Re: Champions Online
Post by: Sungod on September 18, 2011, 07:33PM
If you go around looking like, for example, Jean, you will obviously get reported for copyright, that's why i made that Phoenix Redesign that midnightphoenix posted in his workbench, but i changed the boots, the hair, i added bracers, i added canisters, so it's a completly diferent outfit. i call it: Super Report Proof Modern Phoenix Outfit XD

Sorry to double post, just wanted to say that JeanGrey777, White_Queen and I have created a Super Group, "The Gaurdians" (and yes I know I spelt that wrong, but the correct way was already taken, might change it later anyways). If you play or plan on playing, let one of us know and we'll add you. Btw, you get an extra costume slot and after awhile, I'll be holding events and winner gets a Device from the Cryptic Store. :) (which you have to pay for the cryptic points to get things from this store)

And if you want to join, i'll be on the whole day tomorrow, so please contact me if you plan on joining the SG, pm me. For those who don't have our handlenames they are (and i'll include our SG chars): Jean@JeanGrey12345, Gredin@Scabbia3, Emma Summers@The_White_Queen, and i don't remember the other user lol, but he's not from marvelmods XD.

2 new Archetypes coming in December. The Earth and Wind Archetypes introduces brand new powers. And yet again they will be for members, sigh what kind of a free to play game is this. They should really make the game free to play not everything still being for members. With so little archetypes people who dont want to buy or pay for the game will get bored and leave easily. Though i am a little exited about these two Archetypes

So I've checked out the alert thing, the only thing I think its good for is the money... if ya need gold, thats a good way to get it, other than that, i don't care for it. But I do like the fact that now you get more chances of costume unlocks when fighting villains. Nifty stuff yo.

I changed my toon on there to my liking. Victoria Scabbia, killed by parents, revived by wolves...has great strength, invulnerability, healing factor and flight. (woot) Here's some previews of her costumes I did. Wanted to make her for XML2 and MUA...

I already bought Ooze Tunneling ( A very cool travel power ) and Scarab Tunneling with MCPD Recognition.
Ive been doing the Gravitar Rampage Alert alot recently, although super-hard it gives a descent amount of Q.

But yeah, this game isn't as busy as it used to be, that's for sure, even with some of the City of Heroes players coming there, it's like a ghost town.

Wow... I uh..I probably shouldn't be posting here, since it hasn't been posted for quite some time. ( XD )
But well, I started playing CO again, quite recently actually.
Been playing with my Impulse hero, and now that I have a good computer, I can finally play it without lag and on max-settings. xD Teehee.
So alot has happened since the last post on this topic.
Such as Perfect World purchasing Cryptic Studios ( which isn't really news, but yeah xD ), Champions Online now using the Arc launcher thing, slightly overhauled Telepathy framework, Vehicles 2.0, Auras, New costumes, new Fire and Ice Rampage Alert and yeah.
Not alot of big additions and features, probably cuz the dev's are focusing on Neverwinter and other games I guess.
