Quote:Should be fixed now. If I was home I would have just used my normal internet hosting, but I'm still on vacation in Seattle.Originally Posted by DarkGob
FYI to the OP -- half the images in your first post are gone.
My advice -- ditch Photobucket for a real imagehost. Imageshack is sorta crummy these days but even they have better bandwidth than Photobucket. -
One final thing to mention: the devs were showing much love for for Paragonwiki and TonyV at Saturday's panel. Someone asked about updating the in-game help files and Posi joked that the help function should just link to Paragonwiki.
They even mentioned TonyV by name two or more times during the panel saying how they love the site. -
Quote:One image is the concept art. The other is the final product. I don't remember which is which. Sorry.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
The picture you posted shows 2 different outfits for Abomination - unless there's more than one of them.

Quote:Yep. I'm sure that's what they said. I even double checked my notes about the name while writing my original post because I know the name is already used in the game.Originally Posted by Johnny_Butane
Are you sure that's what they said that was for? I ask because we have Vahzilok mobs called Abominations, and my first impression looking at that pic was that they gave them the CoT costume revamp treatment.
They did say he's the creation of a mad scientist. Players will have to go into the mansion, fight their way to the underground lab, then fight through tunnels to get to a cemetery where the big bad guy will be.
As far as the story arc rewards, I think they're fine. The arcs are three missions that can be run solo. They shouldn't take much time and can be repeated very week for the special rewards. Sounds good to me. It currently takes ten missions and two days to get a hero/villain merit. -
Added three more pics from Saturday.
And that's about all I have.

Shortly after, Lord Recluse showed up and everyone left.

Blue, you should have said "hi". I think we teamed once or twice on the Statesman TF.

Quote:Yes. That was a concept art pic they showed Friday. It was a high tech/old west looking set. The male had something that looked like armored chaps or chaps with armored pieces. Hard to describe. The female model had a skirt with a bustier. I think both female pieces were red and white striped.Originally Posted by warden_de_dios
They also revealed the Gunslinger costume set but the slide went by too fast to get a screenshot

Someone asked who was at the podium in the pics. It was Zwillinger. -
I just added a few more notes from the panel. That's all of the info. I have a couple more pics to post, but no more info.
I did not get back to the CoH booth to ask about back options. I should be able to ask that tomorrow. -
Oh, backpacks. They only showed one pic and it was very plain. Looked like a big book bag.
Yesterday, I asked about quivers and they said come back tomorrow. I think there will be more backpack options that were not shown today.
I'll ask at the CoH/Antec booth later and let you know what they say. -
Added some pics to the first post.
There was talk about the headstart. I'll post my notes from that and all the other tidbits much later tonight. For now, I'm off to enjoy the day at PAX! -
Still going. There are more tidbits like a VIP headstart for Freedom. But what I posted are the big highlights. I'll add more details and pics later.
-
No release date announced today but Posi says it will be announced "very soon. Very, very soon".
VIP server will be named Exalted.
Backpacks will be sold in store at launch.
NEW. Barbarian costumes. They looked cool.
Street Justice powers live in Q4.
NEW haunted mansion for Halloween this year. Looks good.
The big bad guy for Halloween is Abomination.

From the Q&A: Cross server teaming being looked at. "may or may not be on a white board" (laughter). Sounded like this could be very far off but is being investigated.

I'm first in line for today's panel and, surprisingly, have a fantastic wifi signal for my iPad. If there's big news, I'll post it right away. I'll probably make a new thread for it.

Quote:They changed the slide just before I could get a shot of the gunslinger concept art. The teaser image is in my camera. I can't pull it off there to post until I get home next week.Originally Posted by 2short2care
Can you post those?
I'll take pics today with my phone so i can post them. Internet acess in the convention hall is poor so I probably won't be able to post anything until I'm back at my hotel in the evening.
If there is huge news I'll post something but I can't guarantee pics until later. -
Quote:You're right. The only new stuff Friday was a title graphic for part two of the "Who Will Die" signature stories and a shot of old west/high tech costume concept art for gunslingers and saloon girls.Originally Posted by Zombie Man
I expect any reveals to be from Saturday's panel.
Tonight was just the Art of CoH.
Saturday should have some juicy details. -
Can't wait to see you guys there.
-
Nice. I'll be there along with Mrs. Doughboy.
-
Quote:I was disappointed when I didn't see any CoH names on the first list posted, but this sounds great. I'll be there and I'll try to make all of the panels as well as the meet & greet.Originally Posted by Zwillinger
We currently have planned 2 CoH dedicated panels and 2 other panels that Paragon Staff are a part of, including one on Community with yours truly
.
More details to come!
I have a three-day badge for PAX and I'm ready for a lot of CoH!

Now that we have rocket-board flight, I really, really want motorcycle and Vespa superspeed. No matter what disads come with them. Come on, you already have the motorcycle model in-game, the Thugs bruiser uses it as part of his summoning animation.This would be awesome. I've wanted vehicle travel powers since beta.Quote:Originally Posted by Noble Savage
We've definitely looked at it. There are some animation challenges to overcome, but I understand it's not impossible.
Let me add a +1 for jetpacks as a back option. Along with jet belts. -
Love Titan Sentinel. The new version seems to work fine for me.
Thanks for making it! -
I thought the new look was just for the Praetorian version of CoT.

Quote:Yes. It was...Originally Posted by Energizing_Ion
P.S. Oh, and what was that cube that the Red Skull had? Was it one of those "cosmic cubes" that was shown in the teaser after the Thor movie?
Then you missed a very good arc with Bucky taking over as Captain America. It started to drag a bit near the end, but it was still very, very good overall.Quote:Originally Posted by redtornado
Captain America is my favorite hero. Specifically, Steve Rogers as Captain America. I stopped reading comic books when they chose to kill him. -
Just got back from the 2D version. It was awesome.
I'm a huge Cap fan and was worried that the film might not live up to my expectations. Boy, it did that and then some!
It was at least as good as the first Iron Man movie. It was no Dark Knight Returns, but how many movies, superhero or not, are that good?
I highly recommend Captain America and do stay for the Avengers trailer after the credits! -
