Thread: silly social stuff some of us would love

    silly social stuff some of us would love

    I've seen lots of people ask about the holiday hologram burst and holiday hologram blast tools. Those big flashies are really fun, at least in the social circle within AO, but they're no longer available in the item shop. Many of us would really like to see those brought back or something similar added. The bubble blower I believe was removed from the item shop as well, and was a fun little tool to have too.

    It would be cool to be able to purchase the mech leet and some of the limited edition social pets that aren't in the item shop anymore. Maybe even make the balloon "pet" that you can buy with phasefront points available in the item shop too.

    Within the social circle, we appreciate a lot of the clothing and hand-held social items, but I personally think the food plates, beverages, posters, nano sprays, and a few of the tshirts aren't nearly as desirable. We always love the bikinis and any clothing in colors that we don't typically see a lot of (such as purple or green or pink).

    Also I'd still really, really love a pink silvertail doll. Even if it's not pink I'd be thrilled! <3

    Running around TOTW with my new Wuvchil-, er, Opi Ranged Advy I took on Reanimator and got skeletoned. So there was I a skeleton. With my mirrored shades and shoulder pads of my GTA still showing along with my pistols. I WANT A SKELETON SOCIAL NANO! Self only, Social only, same mesh as the TOTW hostile nano without the hostile bits. Make it a Hallowe'en drop. Or not. Sell it to me. Please. Make it so I can't fight with it on (like carrying things in Social weapons slots). Look, roll a toon, put your settings to Show Social & No Helmet, get The Reanimator to attack you and see what I mean. It just looked so brilliant I nearly died as I was too busy zooming the camera round myself and gawping to remember to keep the heals up. Please do this.
    I'm a Froob Neutral Trade Skilling Nanomage Engineer- by definition I hide round corners and let the bot do the fighting.

    What happened to the purple/blue car? it was in the item shop for about a day it seemed. Maybe that could be made available for phasefront points? My characters have loads with nothing to spend them on.

    Skeleton is a nice idea. So long as the price is reasonable.

    Are you referring to the limited edition Valentine's Day item?

This means people who buy the vehicles during the time frame will have something that becomes unavailable for others, and I think it's pretty compelling to have a vehicle that feels unique because you got it during the window.

    Later, when we've accumulated a number of these (and also pulled in vehicles from the phasefront store) when can sell vehicle packs.

    So we're (eventually) losing the option to buy phasefront vehicles with the paid points already bought on any further alts?
    I make it look easy, 'cause it is to me.

    No. We'll leave them in the phasefront shop. But ultimately (and this is far down the road) we want to do something to merge the paid points feature into funcom points, since it's somewhat inconvenient to maintain both side-by-side. But we're definitely not going to cheat players out of points they already have.

    I generally agree with the OP.

    I'm not a big fan of food plates, cookie houses, and posters. I AM a fan of various cool leet nanos, shirts/clothes, sunglasses, and "lights". By lights i mean like the ghost that hovers over your shoulder.

    And for the love of god, make the "everlasting being of light" able to go into social...and the quid!
    If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

    Word. Everyone knows I got a cyberdeck on anyway, I want to hold some cool looking stuff And for every other prof, well you can leet anyway and nobody can see what you use.

    I guess at that point it comes down to making the animations be ok.
