Quote:They have already stated there will be advanced warning before Celestial sets are removed, and it will cycle back in eventually anyway.Originally Posted by DarkGob
So basically you're not going to tell us at all when Celestial is going away, you're just gonna let them sit until you pull the rug out from under us in a few months.
Nice. -

That's nice. Where in the costume editor do I find these new costume parts?
Before I came to work today, I bought all three new packs, then went to the tailor and couldn't find anything new in the Costume Sets menu. -

Because the meta-story needs a single reality
...why? -

That's for non-meta-story stuff - all the phasing events don't affect the meta-story at all - for example, siding with Cleopatra or Washington has zero effect on the meta-story, just like the Arachnos attack on Atlas Park - the content that follows both those phasing events isn't affected by them.
Statesman's death will have a major impact on the meta-story, which would require two realities to follow on from it if it wasn't a game wide event - like when the Battalion arrives, there'd have to be content where Statesman wasn't around to fight them, and then the same content, only with him him still alive and leading the Freedom Phalanx.
All meta-story changes happen to everyone, even if players don't take part in the events that lead to the changes.
But then, what is the point of playing the arc anymore if it does NOT have any consequences? I mean, if Statesman is removed from the ground up already before a new character is even created, what difference does it make if they play that arc ever? -
Quote:Right. What I don't get is where you ever got the impression it might be a zero level change? Every time the devs mentioned the who will die arc, they said that it would allow us, the players, to change the very world by playing it. That sounds like a change that you actually trigger. I'm honestly confused by this.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
It depends if it's going to be a "progressive" change or a "level zero" change - a progressive change is something like the Praetorian war, where the in-game situation changes as you progress through the levels - the event happens during your career in Paragon City - a level zero change is something like the return of the 5th Column, where the in-game situation changes for the entire game right from the start - it becomes an event that's happened at some point before you start your career in Paragon City.
If Statesman's death is going to be a progressive change, then there's no need to rewrite the tutorial comic - but if it's a level zero change, then it'll need to be rewritten. -
Quote:I don't understand the question.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
Will the tutorial comic also get redrawn?
He doesn't die until after you play the arc. The arc you need to be greater than level one to play. He's still alive during the tutorial. -

Yes, should have received 7 year veteran when Freedom launched. Didn't.

Quote:Chad always takes my answers.Originally Posted by Chad Gulzow-Man
I'm very sorry to hear it. I chatted with DC a bit back in the heal farm days, and have often wondered why I haven't been seeing him on badge runs.
If he's up for a joke, tell him that I will collect all the badges in his memory, and regardless tell him that he's remembered fondly and that I have always appreciated his help badging in the past.
I'm so very sorry to hear all this news. DC was one of the best players on Victory, and I owe so many of the badges to him. It just won't feel the same anymore. -

This.
Basically, if you don't see Larry Hama's name on it, skip it. Find something with his name on it. -
Quote:Maybe the point isn't what you think it was. Did you even consider that?Originally Posted by ArmlessDan
What the Hell was the point of the mystery and build up for so long to just spoil it yourselves? That was stupid. Way to ruin something that could have been an awesome bit of storytelling. I guess CoH really is all about grinding to the end and skipping all the content, now.
Knowing something in advance but only one detail with no context to it whatsoever means there can not be an awesome bit of storytelling still? How does that make sense? -
Quote:It is what it is. But given this, why don't we...Originally Posted by Eva Destruction
Wow, that's pretty stupid.
[SPOILER]...Go seek out as many different races as we possibly can, and recruit all of their WELLS so they can fight the Battalion simultaneously? It seems so darn obvious. Which means we probably won't do it.[/SPOILER] -
Quote:Ok, well more spoilers in this response, I guess, but if you talk to Prometheus AFTER the TPN and MoM trials, he has some interesting things to say about what the well is.Originally Posted by _Hush_
My question isn't recluse linked to statesman does that means recuse dies as well? Also isn't statesman immortal?
[SPOILERS]The Wells are actually living beings that can be enslaved or killed. Ours is a "he". And every different alien race has it's own "well". So, if the source of Statesman's power can be killed, it stands to reason he can, too.
[/SPOILERS] -

Quote:Well, I think he actually meant by that they will save his RETURN for the third movie. lolOriginally Posted by Innovator
I don't know about saving him. General Hawk was already in the first movie, played by Dennis Quaid.

Quote:But the question that he ACTUALLY asked, not the one you answered, (Originally Posted by Golden Girl
I think that this is a permanent change to the game world, not an optional one.
), is will this change be TRIGGERED by playing the story arc.
The devs have said we have the opportunity to change our own world through these actions. So it's a valid question. -
Quote:I don't think it is really a "spoiler" if the "author" is the one doing it. In my opinion this reaction is coming from an ingrained fear of spoilers from today's audience.Originally Posted by Doc_Reverend
I'm really regretting clicking this thread. C'mon, guys. Spoilers! You didn't have to leak this for the January sig arc.
Knowing the future ahead of time is actually a well known writing technique. (J. Strazynski used this a lot in Babylon 5). You see or know about a glimpse of the future which raises all the questions of how you get there. -

Ugh. Wow. This pack is really not up to the level of quality that I'm used to. City HAS a dual pistol character named Twinshot. Don't think she'd appreciate this. lol
The only piece I was even considering was that little garter, but you can only get it on those awful boots. WHY is that exactly? :/ -
