Hero Name: The Protectorate

I will probably try for a secondary "Electro-Volt" blaster type if I can manage it.

After my whopping hour and a half beta session, I'm betting money that Bozo won't be available as a name.  Sadly, my less than original backup plan (Supervolt) was taken too.  So the new and improved information for my guy is:

Mr. Subtle
Tanker
Invuln/Super Strength

Appearance: Dressed like a color-blind pimp.

The name block is only long enough for 15 characters, so I can't be Alkiera Kerithor unless I shorten it in some lame way.  Instead, I've resevered 'Alkiera', and put my last name in my profile.

I reserved "Electron Volt" (the amount of energy in one electron passed through an electric field of one volt, usually designated eV) on what was the name reserve server and Electron Blue on freedom (ne prime).

Not sure if I will actually be able to participate in catass2justice but I have a 10 days off the week after and am sure I will show you all the true definition of the word catass.

edit:
Also If I can manage it again (got lucky in beta) I'll have a scrapper alt named Buckaroo Bonzai or Jack Burton.

I reserved 'Beguiler', so I will likely have a character with that appelation come Sunday. Not sure if he will be my main yet, but it works well enough in a group to be useful to the SuperGroup.

Hoping to get something else for my scrapper, but it looks like I'm catassing my controller to victory to start out.

Not sure what my name will be, as I'm still torn between making a WildWest gunfighter (assault rifle/gadgets), insane Knight (don't like melee much in this game though), or campy super hero in tights(blaster or defender).

Just can't decide whether to poor on the cheese and go for tights and a campy name or be the lone gunman in a land of spandex (it's hard to justify super speed on a gunslinger(yah I try not to break fiction)).

Errr.. long story short, save me a spot. I like the game (and shit, it's an actual game).

Is there still a limit on number of heroes in a supergroup? Knowledge database on the CoH site claims there isn't.

I'm very mysterious when I'm inside you.

If there isn't anymore than anyone gets all the alts they want. And the limit is gone. As of the last day of beta the limit WAS 75. They were talking about dropping it and it seems they may have.

Statesman had this to say about the 75 character limit yesterday:

Quote
Actually, the number 75 is not just picked out the air. The limitation is based on a feature that you'll here about in the next month or so.


So it looks like the limit will still be in place but for an as yet unknown reason.  Maybe it has something to do with HQ's.

I may have Chrysoprase reserved on Victory (work was hell last week and the flip/flop/flip on name reservation got by me.) If so, he'll be some kind of tanker.

Shot in the dark: Possibly has to do with their instancing implimentation and City of Villians. Say your supergroup is defending an instanced warehouse (75 people) from another supergroup who is attacking the warehouse (75 people). That gives you a max of 150 people in the instanced zone.

Same thing applies to HQ's. You could have 75 supergroup members and 75 guests in the HQ for 150 total.

I'll wager the Atlas Park 2 zone shows up when the Atlas Park 1 zone gets near 130-140 players.

I made a new post asking for a guild invite, reading the sticky threads woulda been a good idea ;)

I'm a good friend of Apothecary, he told me to come here and sign up to see if I can get a spot in the supergroup!

My char is a martial / regeneration named Deathstriker, and I plan to play an electricity blaster named Thayvius.

I understand there's some form of cap on the supergroup size so it's all good if only one can get invited :)

That and and possibly something to do with instancing and multi-grouping in the trial zones. Either way, Cryptic has their shit together. They know their limitations and they plan accordingly.

I also have "Turtle" a gravity/force field controller which I hope someday I will have the patience to level up to become "The Great and Powerful Turtle", He's actually pretty fun to level, as opposed to all the other controllers I've tried and hated.

Did I ever tell you I was a huge fan of Aces-High?

Also, I have an energy tanker named Sho-Nuff, with the glowy red hands and sparks when he hits things looks just like he should from the last dragon.

I also wanted Jack "It's all in the reflexes" Burton but someone beat me to it.
