One
of the staples of the super hero genre, travel powers typically
come in all shapes and sizes. From summoned objects that grant the
ability to move at blazing fast speeds to bursting into flames and
quite literally blazing your way across the four-color skies of your
imagination, travel powers are nearly as synonymous with comic book
heroes as is the concept of running through the city dressed in
brightly colored spandex. These types of powers and more were discussed
at E3 this week in a href="http://www.tentonhammer.com/co" target="_blank"> style="font-style: italic;">Champions Online
preview with Bill Roper from Cryptic Studios, and Ten Ton Hammer was
there to get all the juicy details!
The one crafted device
we got a close look at was a steel disk that
flies the hero around the city. Players can also attack and fight from
the top of the disk giving some strong ranged combat options. In
opposition to the metal flying menace some players will have access to
a flying carpet when using the Mystic crafting ability. Players will
sit comfortably in a meditation position as they whisk off to fight the
bad guys attacking the city. Another idea on travel was a giant ball
that players can roll around in moving at high speeds to solve their
missions faster.
