    Yes, you are - see my previous post

    All Paretorians are free to choose if they want to go blue side or red side when they leave their home dimension.

    Your actions in Paretoria have no effect on where you end up on Primnal Earth - Positron said so at Hero Con.

    Oh, does that mean the Praetorians won't be an enemy group for heroes to fight anymore?

    I think that Tyrant, the mass-murdering supervillain, and his fascist utopia, which is about to invade Primal Earth are probably meant to be the people the heroes of Paragon City are meant to fight - kinda like we do now in the current Paretorian arcs.

    I18 would make the most sense.

    I don't think anyone is allowed to say yet

    The answer is "not all that much" - I19 is focused on the Incarnate endgame system, and you need a copy of GR to be able to access it.

    Answer: NO!

    Apparently you MUST make a Praetorian and your actions will decide your alignment. So to go rogue, we all get to start off with all level 1s hehehe
    I think support should perhaps stick to support - none of that info is correct

    All avatars over level 20 can switch sides.

    NONE of your actions in Praetoria will decide you alignment - Poistron said at Hero Con that all Praetorians will get a final choice to be a Hero or a Villain when they leave for Primal Earth.
  11. I think it pops up when they shuffle the order of animations when they add new ones.

  14. That's an...interesting location you've chosen for something like that.

    I may well end up resubbing to WoW, depending on how the rest of this plays out, but I am thus far finding CoH an interesting change. It's a hard sell for me, though, because fundamentally I want to kill internet dragons.

    Still, CoH seems pretty friendly. Also, Levelling Pact, best idea ever. Awesome.

    BTW, I am totally aware of the irony in posting by the name I'm most widely known by in order to gripe about how stupid it is to make people post under their "real names". Back in the late 80s, I mistakenly concluded that there was no need to worry much about privacy, and at this point, well, it's a bit late to change my mind.
    Welcome to the game and the forum - spandex always beats chainmail

    It's releasing at the same time.

    CoV gave us a big bunch of new power sets.
    (Please read "new power set" to include the "proliferated" powers from hero ATs.)
    GoRo will give us 4 new powersets; one available for each AT.

    So ... like I said ...
    I was just hoping for more.

    It just seems like the money spent on Cov netted more "Bang for your buck," as it were.
    CoV was a stand-alone game - and it cost more too.
  20. A public list of new content is always nipple-poppingly exciting.

  22. We should try guessing who or what Noble Savage is before the offical info comes out.
    My guess, going by his name and picture, is some kind of Ghoul leader, who's possibly trying to organize, help and protect the Ghouls - like he's either trying to cure them of whatever it is that made them Ghouls, or he's trying to make their lives as Ghouls better.
  23. So is this the mythical WoW-killer? I always thought that it'd come from another company, and not Blizzard
    I think Bioware wil be quite happy with this situation right now
