• Champions Online Adds Rainbow Powers

    by
    Apparently the MMORPG Champions Online has added rainbow powers, and this has, of course, spawned a whole armada of Rainbow Dash/Celestia knockoffs. 

    I never did get into this game myself, but maybe some of you have?  It's pretty amazing how far-reaching bronies are. 

    Now to turn back on the MMO resistance... I just quit WoW, I can't get into another!

      Back when I briefly played City of Heroes I remember they had a policy forbidding the duplication of existing copyright characters -- I think near-copies were also frowned upon.

      I have to wonder if Champions Online has a similar policy and will all these Rainbow Dash clones be nuked or randomized or something.

      Speaking of MMOs, there needs to be a Pony EvE online corporation.

      You have to pay about $5 to get access to rainbow flight....

      but the game is free 2 play

      @Sorrowful

      Former Champions Online player here. There was NO ruler about near copyrighted characters. You used to see Supermen and Batmen-esque things. I had a character who looked just like a Power Ranger.

      Btw, if anyone wants to know, Champions Online is a wicked awesome game. I just stopped playing because I ran out of time. I'll probably start again this summer.

      @Gent Minecraft is also on-line... And there are pony servers for it.

      Wave goodbye to your life, chuckleheads.

      Wow... that almost makes me want to go dust off my old account just to have a look.

      @Sorrowful
      Really unlikely that anyone will get thumped for these sort of character likenesses. Champions was pretty lax on that sort of thing. City of Heroes/Villains, however, was not so much. I got generic'd there for using the name (not the likeness or character concept) "Shrinking Violet", which was apparently a now defunct DC character.

      DOHOHOHO! I'm the one on the right, the Celestia and Trixie (Too bad the settings were turned down, you can't see the stars on her cape. :c) It's so awesome that we actually got featured here! XD If any of you play, feel free to hit me up ingame.
