    It's part of the Going Rogue theme music - you should hear it when you choose to make a Praetorian.

    I'd really like to see the old stuff updated though. Not removed but updated with a new version, allowing players to use old or new.
    Noble Savage said that they'll have some news about that at a later date.

    I think you'll enjoy the MoM Trial

    We already have 6 Incarnate Trials that we know about, with many more to come in future Issues, so the idea that anyone is going to be "forced" to "grind" is just silly.
  7. Adding more non-Incanrate Trials 1-50 would help teach players more about the Trial system - DFB is a good start, along with the Halloween one - but more would be good.

    What's wrong with it? It sounds nice and heroic and epic - it make's logging in seem even more awesome

    Because in an MMO, there'll always be some content that's designed for groups - and it needs to present a threat that's too big for a single player to take on.

    We've already met the Praetorian Fusionette on the Admiral Sutter TF - and the Praetorian Faultline

And since I get the impression that he really really really doesn't want to pull people away from his precious trials, I have no reason to believe it will be good enough until they actually tell us what it is and that we'll have it sometime before i25.

    Actually scratch that. Anytime after i22 is not good enough. They've had plenty of time to process the fact that people want a viable alternative to multi-team raids.
    It'll be faster than the current solo way, but slower than the Trials - it might involve new content, or it might involve some kind of Incarnate reward table for current non-Incarnate content if it's played with the Alpha slot unlocked.
    We've been getting a lot of new content recently, so the solo way could have new content to go with it - but as it's also something they've added to their schedule, and wasn't planned in advance like the Trials, a new reward system for existing content might be a quicker and cheaper fix.

    I hope you use him again for any other new music requirements in the future - his style fits the game very well.

    Did he also do the new music used for the different areas of Atlas Park?

Rularuu the Ravager preparing to devour our world? Hequat preparing to return to our dimension and wipe out the bloodline of Mu? Crey's latest Code Merlin is REALLY BAD? These are situations that call for Earth's mightiest superpowered beings.
    They're the first chapter of the Incarnate storyline - the next chapter is about the Coming Storm, so we'll be gettign Trials related to that once we've finsihed the Praetorian chapter.

    There should be roguish or villain-oriented Incarnate trials as well. Preferably pro-active ones.
    You'll probably have to wait for the solo Incarnate path for anything like that - the devs have said that all the Trials will be co-op, to give the biggest player pool to recruit a league from.

    Don't tell me that facing off against a guy with a couple of guns for PR purposes is somehow epic.

    One's epic and the other isn't?

    If true that's naff.

    I still kicked his butt though
    He's been replaced with one of his Olympian Guard clones.
  19. His sacrifice right at the end of the FW storyline did give some kind of redemption.

    You might get some of that on the smaller scale solo Incarnate path - but it won't happen on the Trials, as they're co-op, so they'll always be heroic.

    Again, I wish it were so, and indeed, I hope in the future that we can be on the same solo-strength level as Statesman, but I do not see it happening with Cole.

  25. Protean mentioned a few months ago that they were kicking around a few ideas for the Tyrant Trial - and going by the in-game hints we've been getting, it seems quite possible that we'll end up fighting more like an avatar of the Well rather than the human Tyrant.

    There's also a chance for some kind of twist where Tyrant could end up helping us defeat the Hamidon, but at the cost of his life - like we might discover that it's an Incarnate, and the only way to destroy it forever would be through the sacrifice of another Incarnate - so Tyrant could find some kind of redemption, and fulfill his self-procliamed role as the protector of Praetoria.
