In closed beta played it on a blaster and a corruptor. There's no buildup or sniper (which makes sense) but it holds its own well, expecially when in groups. I especially liked it as a corruptor, with the scourge effect. it also looks pretty with plenty of style to it in the Jon Woo/gun-fu vein but not conducive toward western-style cowboy characters.

Is there someplace to watch any videos showing it like the one shown in that picture? I took a cursory look around YouTube but nothing jumped out at me. It looks a lot like the Munitions power set in Champions Online from what I'm reading... which isn't a bad thing. It was one of my favorites when I was betaing CO. I still like the "feel" of CoX much more than CO TBH. ------------------------- "Searchers after horror haunt strange, far places..." ~ H.P.Lovecraft, "From Beyond"

Is this new expansi going to upgrade entire game, graphics and all? It is a great game but, once you play a newer more visually stunning game its hard to go back. Whcih is too bad because coh/v is a great game. Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz. This post is intentionally written not to make any sense what so ever. Thank You Very Much.

Originally posted by Kazenfei I for see a lot of Grammaton Clerics arriving in Paragon City soon :D lol, when I first tried the CO beta and made a munitions character that is exactly what I was reminded of.

There's no competition though the exception being graphically. I might have to jump back into the game when this hits.

Decided to get a trial account and see if anyone was about but there wasn't My highest character is probably in is teens or twenties, but if I was going to join again i think it would be best if I found a Super Group.

I am actually looking forward to the new expansion. I have been waiting for whole new zones in CoH/V for a while now. Of course I love the new powerset. Anytime you can add a flashy new power to this game and not make it horrible is a plus in my book. "You think this "A" stands for France?" Captain America
