    That and my teacher was hot.

    I still get fish and poison confused though.
    Fish-based dishes prepared by you must be quite exciting then
  3. We might get some sort of Praetorian themed booster pack
  4. I don't think they'll ignore the fact that they already have Praetorian stories in the game, which might clash with the new Praetorian stories in GR

    What if?

    A usually post in little bursts - in the morning when I check the net before going out, and in the evening when I'm playing

    They just added a new build to test a few hours ago - I think they might want a few days to check it out first, even if the patch notes weren't so big this time.

    However, the pre 40s level range is problematic. In that "timeframe" we don't know about the Praetorians yet and they, arguable, don't know about Primal Earth. Side switching will either have to come late in pre-GR characters (who started on either CoV or CoH zones instead of GR zones) and characters on Praetoria can't cross over to CoV or CoH territory until late-game, or they might just decide to throw continuity to the wind.
    I think side switching will be opened up around level 20 - you'll need to be heroic enough to fall, or evil enough to be redeemed, and it'd be weird if you could enter Atlas Park at level 1 and then start "falling".
  8. There's also the fact that the current Praetorian henchpeople are out of date - the GR info we have so far mentions Tyrant's Praetorian Guard, and Mother Mayhem's Seers - but right now, Tyrant just has street thugs to guard him, and Mother Mayhem only has crazy people

    But it will affect the new storylines in GR.

    While things like Warwolves and zombies and DE count as creatures, they also want someone with experience of animating non-human body-shapes, so I think we're going to get some kind of animals.
  11. I see they've added a bit more to the CoH animator description too:

    "If hired, you will be working on a wide variety of characters, creatures, vehicles and props"

    Should we read anything into that?

    They just need to replace them with non-Praetorian missions - GR is Praetoria 2.0 - there's no reason to keep the older versions in game.
    Replace Maria Jenkins with a new contact with a portal related arc, and swap out the Praetorian arc from Tina Macintyre for another non-Praetorian portal arc, and replace Unai Kemen's handful of one-off Praetorian misisons with other one-off portal missions.

    The "Hero's Hero" could be reworked as a high level TF set in Praetoria, with Maria Jenkins as the contact.

    A replacement arc could take us to the Axis America dimension, where Reichsman could be gathering extra forces to help his comeback following his defeat on the BTF, while there's plenty of scope for replacement missions based around investigating the possessed scientists at Portal Corp, who've never really been fleshed out at all.

    The missions aren't required for it - defeating all the Praetorians is - so there's no reason that can't be done in the new Praetorian zones and missions

    But they might possibly use the story framework in GR - like the Praetorians preparing to invade, and Statesman being captured, only rewritten and fleshed out, and set in the Praetrorian zones instead of being accessed through portal Corp.
  17. I think GR might bring one or two Praetorian upgrades

    653 here - but expecting a couple more auto ones when I16 goes live
  22. I might be able to help - I like playing with the base editor, although I'm still learning the new stacking feature

    Also, I work for free
