Archistopheles Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Reach was offensive to people without arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aramahn Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Reach was offensive to people without arms. This. And maybe it was a matter of stretching your powers instead of making them reach out. Crap. That sounded a lot better in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabcor Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 The only reason they could have had for this is if they intended to make another mod named reach that does something else than stretch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozgriz Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 They might as well just rename it :"Range". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElementLordofMilk Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I don't like it, stretch sounds too silly. And why even change it in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperAlien Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Stretch is stretching it a bit.... might as well change it to Flexibility :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoSumi Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I liked the name "reach" - made sense because you were trying to reach other enemies. Stretch doesn't seem to fit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferriwind Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Stretch sounds stupid. Srry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madotsuki Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Yeah, Stretch sounds really stupid. However, I've heard rumors that the Reach name is going to be used for a new mod that increases melee weapon range, hence the rename for the existing mod for abilities. Stretch is still a horrible name though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haif Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 How about "Projection" instead of Stretch? It doesn't sound stupid, plus it accurately describes the effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotaCobra Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I want handspring changed to "Erection" You know you want it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeddypanda Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 We literally started a thread to argue semantics. If we're heading down this road, "focus" doesn't make a whole lot of sense either. Shouldn't it, I dunno, make the skill apply to a smaller area in trade of strength? Just making a power stronger should be called "amplify". Perhaps that's where they're going. Stretch sounds like it'd increase range at the expense of power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namacyst Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Stretch is offensive for people who are too tall for their age. Just saying ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASH_PRIME Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 They might as well just rename it :"Range". You got it in one 'Stretch'? it sounds like...i dunno a piece of rubber or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsters Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 While we're on the subject of name changing, lets rename retribution to don't tase me bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapoChrysalis Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Reach might have sound misleading in some case i.e. putting it on Excalibur's Dash or Rhino's charge It gives impression that that it extends the reaching distance of the power, but it does not (the correct one is Continuity). Now it is stretch is less coherent to reaching distance I guess? sounds strange still :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
