    When the fits of madness took him, and he saw his visions, he would write many strange things.

    I'm pretty sure it was a joke, as the working on the Vault is kind of a running joke

    Marketing will be at both events - it might be hard to get a dev in an "off the record" area

    You're totally misreading that comment.

    "No comment" = "yes" since like forever - it's a way of saying "yes" without actually saying "yes"

    It's pretty clear what "no comment" means in this situation

    That's what i said in the other thread - it's a normal part of the development process.
    For example, GR would have required an above average number of people to work on the zones - but as it's unlikely we'll be getting 4-6 new zones per Issue, a lot of the people who were working on the 4-6 Praetorian zones would be at a loose end.
  8. He's a very talented animatior, so I don't think he'll be short of offers for a new job.

    I thought it was just getting frustrated indoors, and was just sent outside to let off some steam?

    I'm not believeing it till it's actually spelled out confirmed, frankly. The rumour mill is very often so much junk.
    There's a difference between a rumor mill and The Ocho being in the same building as BAB is/was

    In an effort to put a greater focus on the City of Heroes franchise, Paragon Studios is shifting resources within the studio.
    So how was Paragon Studios not focusing on CoH?

    Or does the top secret project mean something else?

    That's a "yes" then
  14. All games downsize their team after their release or after an expansion, because the amount of work done for wither of those things is way more than is needed on a regular basis.

    That's the in game location - BAB is a retired hero who trains "noobs" in Galaxy City

    Fantastic 15 or something?
    The Freem Fifteen

    The only reason I could think of for BAB leaving would be that he was being totally serious about not wanting an underwater zone
  19. He was checking the forums last night.
  20. That's weird - he was checking the forums last night too...
  21. That doesn't even sound like it was written by a native English speaker

    Any PEATs would need to be mentally aware and flexible enough to be able to be used by both sides, noy just the Resistance.
