[idea] Powerset Animation Packs

Discussion in 'Gotham City (General Gameplay)' started by Iconic Simulation, Aug 31, 2023.

    In stead of getting a new power, why not allow us to upgrade to a variant set of animations for current powers?

    - Green Fire (Fire)
    - Cybernetic Munitions (Cyborg)
    - Variants of the Lantern Corps (Sapphires, Orange, Indigo, etc.)
    - Black Ice
    - Blue Electricity (Black Lightning)

    Just a few ideas, pls leave your suggestions and tell me what you think!

    Got my vote. Others I would want:

    •Pirate Era munitions pack
    •Blue Fire
    •Red Water
    •Hallowed Earth (darker black/grey color, mixed with bone etc, like you are using earth from a graveyard)

    Crown of Thorns reskin for Nature with Sea Creature transformations (Crown of Thorns Golem = Insectoid, Trench Creature = Primal Wolf, Barnacle Golem = Gorilla, Brine Hatchling = Canine).

    A few other possibilities:

    • White Quantum / "Magnetism" (Cosmic Boy powers are essentially this, with some of the quantum projectiles being iron spheres instead)
    • Orange Water / "Lava"
    • Purple Fire
    • Gold and Teal Sorcery / "Atlantean Sorcery" (Silent School mobs use this. Guardian could become a coral golem, Fury could become that fat barnacle monster, and Watcher..... could become a blue eye...)
    • Bright Blue Celestial / "Holy" (Holy magic in games, that I've played at least, are usually pure white or bright blue)

    I love this!

    Allowing us to re-colour is great but going even further.. same names for powers and same action (to ensure balance) but different shapes - imagine a blue square flux in electric.. or a swirl of green fire as the finisher in fire etc

    Like Lorax said.. a pirate muntions, imagine that with an SC that is cannonballs etc

    Maybe water could get retextured to be mud? Actual mud, not just "brown water".

    When they advertised it as a tank who had to stay active to survive I was hooked. I learned to tank in the turtle tank era. Atomic was a blast. I do miss the pre-revamp atomic era

    I think ice could be used to make sand as an alternate power.

    Some of the ice moves look windy already, the ice chunks and boulders could be changed into sand projectiles. Wintry Tempest could become some sand field with sand spikes sprouting in and out. Snow Devil could become just a sand tornado pet.
