Well, from what they said at the I19 panel, the actual method of crafting enhancmeents for the alpha slot doens't seem to have changed much from the way it was done in the GR closed beta - the big changes seem to be having an arc to unlcok the slot now, and two TFs to use the slot on.

Think Battle Maiden is also an incarnate there, Since she is leading the raid, I would think they give her a couple new tricks. -

Of course people would be evil - How else could heroes fill out a season of villain-of-the-week-episodes!?
Season-long story arcs might be better - it'd need fewer villains

It's a very Tyrant-style solution

This is exactly right. And if I had super powers, I'd use them to help others.
Serial killers would be summarily executed. And so would be unrepentant child molesters. The guys who tanked the economy with their greed and irresponsible banking behavior will be hung from a gallows in the center of Wall Street. So will anyone who steels more than $1 million through ponzi schemes.
Bin Laden and his lieutenants and anyone who gives money knowingly to Al Qaeda - dead.
Those guys who send out scam Nigerian Oil Minister Widow emails (and others of their ilk) would be given notice on the public airwaves that they need to stop IMMEDIATELY. After 48 hours, anyone running such scam will be summarily executed.
Any world leader who starts a war will die. Anyone who orders the assignation of anyone else will die.
I may go easy on corrupt cops and city officials (depending on severity of corruption). They may just end up losing limbs.
The end result will be a hell of a lot of benefit to the poor, powerless, and disenfranchised. But it wont be pretty. -
So what was the surprising one?

BAB was one of the ones who left - there won't be anymore details from red names.

The hair would be nice too.

Oh that's a given. Eventually after we kick the crap out of all his little Praetor minions, he's going to show up himself grumbling, "If you want something done right..."

Like these?

If he's hugely powerful, he might even be used in a raid of some sort.
EDIT: I'd be fun to fight him in his laval cave lair - the new MJ arc says that place is linked to the Praetorian Well of the Furies, which is why it's the only place an Incarnate like Statesman could be held prisoner, because those glowing restraint things are linked to the Well - but it could also make for an awesome raid area where Tyrant draws on the power of the Well to fight us - he'd probably have a legion of Olympian Guards to help him out too

Is a hero Batman who will never compromise his moral code? Or is he a failure for allowing his unbending ways to let criminals such as the Joker live?

Quote:I don' think we're going to meet him on a TF until we've got more Incarnate slots available - if he's become so powerful, we'll probably need a lot more than just the alpha slot to be able to take him down.Originally Posted by Steampunkette
Technically there are only 3, then. The two Column TFs and the legacy Maria Jenkins arc.
Since the new one is a clone it's not -his- face. It's the clone's.
Actually, I'm working on a model of him for comic book purposesQuote:Though if you're looking to punch his face without regards to whether it's attached to him you could always print out a picture of him to punch or put your fist through a monitor.

Quote:But a story arc still counts for slapping an evil Cole, so helping Maria Jenkins can also give the same amount of Cole-slapping action as the KTFOriginally Posted by Steampunkette
Nope. There are just the two, right now.
Two are storyarcs, not TFs, and the other two aren't in-game, yet. The only Evil Cole you can smack around is Nazi Cole.

Quote:The Tin Mage TF sends us to Praetoria, so that portal might be one of several that we have to take down to disrupt the invasion.Originally Posted by Obscure Blade
That's actually from the Tin Mage Task Force though; according to the devs they put it in the trailer just because it was "so cool".

Quote:Universal morality comes before any of them.Originally Posted by BafflingBeerMan
Which is what we are ultimately saying: we would live by our own moral code. And what one may find morally acceptable (say, defending my home country of Latveria), another may find moral reprehensible (DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!)
They are different strata (floors?) of morality: societal morality, government morality (i.e. laws), and personal morals. They may come into conflict with each other. So if you had superpowers, which one would you abide by the most? -

A bit, yes

Avatea, will we be getting a trailer for the Tin Mage TF too?

The person using the crossbow looks like a revamped version of one of Battle Maiden's warriors.

Even if the person now has a kid by you in later years.

Quote:Flying fast enough around the Earth to reverse time is also a useful option when there's more than one area that needs your attentionOriginally Posted by BafflingBeerMan
You have superhearing (you say you have Kryptonian powers) and you recognize the voice coming from the weathly district as Mark Zuckerbook, the billionaire inventor of Bookface.
Over in the slums, it is after normal work hours, and you hear the victim, begging for her life as she says she's working 3 jobs to make ends meet.
Or, whatever way you know that a crime is being committed other than patroling (even Spidey had a police scanner) gives you enough knowledge that the two people are not twins. Maybe it is just simply a man versus a woman being mugged.

How would you decide?
Right now, it seems like your answer is "I don't have enough information, so I'd save neither".
Quickly now, they're getting away, and you don't have a Wikipedia/legal file/their motivations clearly stated on your Pip Boy.

Quote:So how do I know the victim in the slums isn't a property developer looking for a bargain and the victim in the upscale area isn't a homeless person?Originally Posted by BafflingBeerMan
Most cities have known districts where the poor are concentrated and where the wealthy go.
Socioeconomic segregation, not by the government, but by circumstance.
So, yes. -
Quote:And now there are 4Originally Posted by Steampunkette
And technically, there are actuallt 6, if you go back in time to fight Tyrant on the Hero's Hero arc, or punch his clone in the face on the Hero's Epic arc
