  1. Desdemona's reaction to the valentine from the Dark Watcher is also amusing

  3. Welcome home

    As you've been awy for 2 years, you might have missed the new Incanrate endgame system that's been added to the game - it allows palyers to progress past 50 with the use of level shifts - currently, there are 3 available level shifts, which make players close to 53.

    I think Mot would be ok with necromancy.

    I'd like to see Steel Canyon remade as a kind of "science city" - like it'd be the heart of the research and tech industy in Paragon City, and all the major science based corporations and institutes would have their main offices there.
    The architecture would have a bit of futuristic feel to it, like the area around Neuron's Tower in Neutropolis, with all the neon stuff.

    He does - after the Underground Trial, there's a text option to tell him that we're planning to use TPN to broadcast the truth about Tyrant to Praetoria - but he just says that it'll be a waste of time, without actually telling us that he knows what Mother Mayhem is planning.

    An alternative would be single player housing - maybe free to VIPs, with various upgrades that would be purchasbale from the market.
    these would become the new base system, while the old base system could remain for larger SGs.
    Personal player housing would give moremplayers a chance to invest in their own living space, rather than being part of an SG that has only 1 or 2 of its memebrs who design the base.
    It'd also open up a new cash stream from cosmetic items to enhance the basic player living spaces, and give non-VIPs a purchasable alternative to SGs.
    The only major downside could be the drain on server resources, as it'd create a lot of extra instances.
  8. Related to this, I like the way that they've started using some base items on missions maps, like in the new Atlas content and the SSAs - I think that it's a good way to integrate the look of bases into the wider game world.

    If they get power from Wells, and Wells get their power from each species, why wouldn't they consume the species along with the Well?

    That's the kind of plot someone's quite likely to have thought of.

    It's the same with the AE - the behavior of the extreme players affects the majority of normal players.

    Rularuu is involved in the coming storm, but the Battalion are the main threat - the new DA arcs will tell you more

    I think that's because of the way the high heels work in this game - they don't actually lift our heels, they just remove the bottom the the shin and replace it with a foot with a heel, so the extra long shins are probably meant to allow for losing the end to heels.
  14. Also, I don't get what the problem is here - what's wrong with personal contact from a GM?

  16. The thread title seems to have changed

    Though, I will dispute that the invasion in the Apex Taskforce, as is the methodology of a lot of what has happened wasn't intended by Tyrant, as explained here

    Really, while Tyrant's decision to invade wasn't the best of plans, I think it was his employment policy that did him in. Seriously, who would hire half the people he put in power?
    It's the Skyway City part that he didn't like - there's nothing in the Apex TF that he'd object too.
    And it's not so much his employment policy that's at fault - it's his enslaving the multiverse policy that's gotten him into trouble.

    There's an exploration badge in the Shadow Shard that mentions a coming storm - and the new DA content also contains some more info on Rularuu, who's involved with the coming storm, but isn't the actual storm itself.

    So the army of War Walkers Tyrant is building in the 1-20 GR content to crush all superpowered opposition on Primal Earth as well as the Resistance are just diplomatic envoys? Is the whole invasion shown in the Admoral Sutter, Apex and Tin Mage TFs all just a big misunderstanding on our part about the loyalists' peaceful intentions?
  21. The Maria Jenkins arc will have to be updated in I23 to reflect the new post-Statesman world - so they could add some Praetorian text options then.
