    No, it's just a lazy attempt to emulate other lantern corps, and the powers were designed to be will and fear. This is the reason I wanted them to specifically say will and fear during character creation, like in the description, so that easily confused, or ignorant, people would realize that. To simply force such different corps' powers to act like that of one corps is lazy, and a slap to the face of those who are fans, or knowledgeable enough to know the difference.

    Had to CHIME in BUT you do realize that they do have to follow through with things like COPY RIGHT INFRINGEMENTS and such. They would probably LOVE to add lots of things BUT can't due to the RULES and REGS. that they HAVE to follow.

    BOTTOM LINE: Unless DC COMICS give them specific rights to do something they have to follow what they want. Why do you think we got the BATMAN COWL after 5 years. Well that is due to the FACT that DC COMICS gave DCUO the specific RIGHT to publish this into their game for sale for ALL of us to PARTAKE.

    That being said I think it was uncalled for to BELITTLE or INSULT MEPPS for something that is out of his control. Then people wonder why we don't get answers some time.

    This is just grasping at straws. YES GREEN is the power of WILL but you can't tell me that to an average citizen that if you were about to be hit with a GREEN CONSTRUCT TRAIN that this would not INSTILL FEAR.

    BOTTOM LINE: It all comes down to a matter of perspective. Also you do realize that for a sake of the game SOME stuff will not be exactly to said SOURCE MATERIAL. That is the nature of ANY business that is able to work closely with another company working together to make a new outlet for the public. As an example take a look at ANY movie BASED on COMICS. When have you EVER seen the MOVIE to be EXACTLY like the COMIC. NEVER. WHY? Because of COPY RIGHTS.

    YOU do REALIZE this is a GAME right?

    BOTTOM LINE: If you wanted to play something where YOU can BE THE ICONIC then why did you not go and play MARVEL then. This is a GAME based on US CREATING TOONS in the WORLD of DCUO. It would be pretty boring if ALL GREEN LANTERNS were just HAL or JOHN right.

    The OP has an excellent idea which I support. As for everyone else, I agree with some but this topic has been talked about before in the forum. Sure there is the lore, but you have to admit some in the community argue that they don't want DCUO to become Lantern Universe Online :rolleyes: even though Lantern lore is one of the most popular in DC comics. Then there are those that refuse anything Star Sapphire because it's just for girls, lol.

    already been askin for this for months. need to let Light . change into Star saphire/Indigo/Blue , and for villains. same except blue into orange. and needs to be a marketplace token. and it will just be the color of the ring and constructs. im glad more people are starting to post stuff like this. PROPS
  7. Toshknight Loyal Player

    YOU ARE 100 percent wrong.. the powers at first maybe were designed to be willpower and Fear but . DC made them remove that part. the HL power is just Light. its not willpower or fear. they can totally , have the rings able to change colors. and i think people will understand once it happens. from green . to blue/violet/indigo From Yellow to Orange/Violet/and indigo. its just a skin. and works thats the best you can do in this situation . cause there probobly wont be a healer lantern power. and wehave all these lantern slimlines. it doesnt feel right wearing them without the ring to match. alot has changed. and DC is allowing soe to use more and more of the IP to lantern lore . dont hate until it is is tested and you seen it in action

    Sigh, were none of the more recent threads on this subject good enough that this year old thread needed to be necro'ed?

    Oh I can guess who will be popping up in this really quick.:rolleyes:

    I am at least 90% right. The powers are will and fear, it's included in their descriptions, and their basic design. It's not just light, as clearly indicated in their descriptions, and design as I've already said. No, they can't, because not only does that break the lore of the rings, but it doesn't account for the clear distinctions between each individual color's unique powers. You might as well tell a Thanos fan that all his infinity stones are the same thing, just palette swaps. Lantern fans, and those of us knowledge-able enough to know the clear differences in each power will be insulted by such a lazy, and asinine move. DC has been smart enough to realize that, which is why they haven't done it yet, and likely never will. It's NOT just a skin, as I've already explained why. The best they can do in this situation is make an actual power that respects the corps it represents, rather than a cheap re-color. It doesn't matter if we have lantern slim lines, I guess that means we should have Batgirl powers, because we have her new 52 outfit, right? It just doesn't feel right wearing a Batgirl suit without her abilities. Ya know what, that goes for the Cyborg outfit, too. We need cyborg powers, because we has his suit, and it just doesn't feel right wearing his suit without him powers. Let me fill you in on a quick bit o' free info, they're called styles for a reason, and you don't need the ring color to wear the suit. That's another part of lantern ring lore that ignorant individuals don't know. The outfits are pure energy, so they can be changed to look however, but the rings remain the same. This means it's possible for a green lantern to wear a red lantern suit, without needing a red lantern ring. How else do you think John Stewart, Guy Gardner, and Kyle Rayner have different looking uniforms from Hal Jordan? It's not hate, when you're simply calling out a stupid idea. Also, I can do big text with colors too. It doesn't make my point right.

    Should I make a black lantern construct video too? Cause this thread got necro'd :cool:

    I wouldn't mind honestly Hard Light being given power mode variations to reflect the other Corps. However if they include Star Sapphire as a power it should be for both Males and Females as well as Men given iconic Star Sapphire armor. I would personally like either Heart of the Predator being made for both genders and given a Male variant or something akin to John Stewart's Star Sapphire outfit and if it had a Female variant it could be Carol Ferris's new 52 outfit. However my preferred idea would be Star Sapphire being introduced as a Lantern Healer power but I would be fine with it being introduced in game as a variation of Hard Light as it already basically is that in this game.
  12. Pults Loyal Player

    New color should be introduced as a new power. Violet lanterns can do so much more than just create constructs. One of which is crystalization.
  13. Toshknight Loyal Player

    no its not a stupid idea. we will agree to disagree until mepps. says Light is willpower and fear and this will not happen. i until then will believe that Light can be changed style wise. its that simple... and when your creating a character it says Inspired by green lantern maybe. but... no where in game now does it say that Light is willpower and fear, just like they call the construct weapon styles.. Energy weapon styles... its in the fine print, and i always. use the same font size and color its easier to read for me and distinguished. not trying to prove a point with my text size. i shouldnt of said you were 100 percent wrong. but sir i do believe in what i typed
  14. Curse Bringer Most Wanted

    He has before, just not in this thread.
  15. Toshknight Loyal Player


    i never thought of that.... males cant get the official Star saphire gear.. thats the only cog in the machine. but , if they were going to make Star saphire a healing power. they should of done it villain. and blue healers. but.. at this point. having them already release the suits . and there rolls. i dont know , if not blue lantern healers. Star saphire. or indigo s neutral healers. like rage is neutral.. that could work. tooo. but i dont know what is gonna happen. i just think like i said the Light power color style change, just the ring color/constructs being changed to the available lanterns they choose. Blue/Green/Indigo/violet for hero. and Yellow/orange/Violet and Indigo for villain. being they have Ss and indigos as neutral atm. but im happy either way

    It's been over a year so no, but I remember that's why I let this thread die out into the abyss we call old threads. You could also take a look at page 5 of this thread where he responded

    awwwww. my dreams crushed.....
  21. Toshknight Loyal Player

    Pre new 52. star saphires did not have rings. but they do in this game. Star Saphire has a gem on her forehead. and i think the indigo lanterns are different too. in the DCUO world lore.. every corp . color has a ring, but it makes sense. what you say. everything else is pre new 52
