O Hai, players!
Yes, yes you can has! O RLY? YA RLY! So dust off your Fig Leaves and YATTA! your way out and Get Down to Pocket D on the Virtue Server! If not, you may end up Forever Alone. You can find us doing a barrel roll on the floor across from all your base portals.
If you haven't guessed, this month's costume contest theme is MEMES!
If you don't know what a meme is or if you're looking for inspiration, help yourself! (WARNING: Portions of this site MAY NOT be appropriate for work)
So, break out your three wolf moon shirts, your lolcat gear, your goggles (which may or may not do nothing) and your shoes (OMG shoes!).
However, the details of this are serious business, so you will need to know the steps to follow.
1. Design a costume representing a meme.
2. Be in Pocket D on the Virtue server on June 28, 2012
3. ???
4. PROFIT!!*
You will be judged by Ryan "Viridian" Greene and Jeff "One does not simply Arbiter Hawk into Grandville" Hamilton and we'll be streaming the contest LIVE! on Twitch.TV!
The contest will be held Thursday, June 28, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. PDT (2:00 p.m. EDT; 7:00 p.m. BST) and 6:00 p.m. PDT (9:00 p.m. EDT; 2:00 a.m. BST on Friday, June 29). Be there or Zwillinger will be stealingz your bukkit!

Discuss the meme costume contest here! -
The feedback we've gained thus far has been very helpful. Thank you everyone.
We have an open line of communication with the good people at Twitch.TV so we'll be sending them some of the feedback you guys have had.
One of the things we've requested is a "Q" emoticon

Josh Augustine @ PC Gamer had a conversation with Associate Producer, Eric "Clockwork O1" Johnson about the Retro Sci-Fi costume set!

Quote:PCG: What’s your personal favorite piece of the new Retro Sci-fi costume set?
EJ: The Jetpacks, I don’t know why, but they just really seem to capture the spirit of the set and the source material in my mind. -

We are aware of an issue regarding icons not displaying correctly in the Paragon Market for the new Retro Sci-Fi pieces. While the icons may not match up, the pieces in the costume creator are not affected.
Thank you! -
Thanks for the find.

Caption this excellent photo of "Fezitron!" This last weekend, Matt "Positron" Miller attended a wedding where the theme was "Victorian/steampunk" and, as you can see here, he arrived in style - complete with fez!

I appreciate the "pass" DK
We have to do articles from two perspectives. On one hand, we have to give insight into the process for the current users - which is why we do Ustream and Freedom Fridays on Facebook but we also want to do pieces like this where we're able to reach out to a much larger audience on sites like Massively, PC Gamer, MMORPG, OnRPG etc.
Sorry if this isn't "news" to you but hopefully it does its purpose of getting new people to join the game or getting someone who's played in the past stoked about the new content.

If you weren't able to visit us for the City of Heroes Player Summit last month or if you're just wondering what we've been up to since then, you'll want to read this article by Josh Augustine at PC Gamer. Josh has images of the concept art by David "Noble Savage" Nakayama for the player-created Post-Apocalyptic costume set and updates to the player-created power set, Radiation Armor from Phil Synapse Zeleski!

Quote:To be clear, ten is the limit on the number of people who can be talking with us at any given time. I don't believe there's a limit on the number of people who can be observing. We have manual control over who's chatting with us and who's watching, so we'll do our best to move people in and out.Originally Posted by Dark_Respite
TEN?! That's IT?!
Ugh...

We're always looking for new and exciting ways to engage our fans. In addition to traditional methods like the City of Heroes website and community forums, we currently post news updates on Facebook, Twitter and Google+ and we host a weekly Community Coffee Talk on Ustream where we have casual chats with the City of Heroes developers. We do our best to make sure that no matter what medium you choose, you're always getting the latest information about City of Heroes Freedom.
The City of Heroes Player Summit gives our fans the opportunity to have face to face conversations with the people behind City of Heroes but we can't do those every week, and not everyone can attend. This brigs us to Google+ Hangouts. We love the idea of being able to have real-time, two-way dialogues with our fans and this gives us the opportunity to have this. By joining a G+ Hangout, you'll have a chance to talk to the developers of the game you love: City of Heroes Freedom!
Our first Google+ Hangout will be Thursday, May 31st at 5:30PM PDT.
In order for you to join us for a Hangout, you'll first need a Google+ account. You can get one here.
Google+ uses "Circles" to help you organize your friends, family and favorite things. You'll need to have us in a Circle in order to join us for a hangout. Simply click "Follow" at the top of our page to add us to a circle.
Right now, Google+ limits people who can chat with us to ten, so we'll do our best to rotate people in and out so everyone gets a shot to have their voice heard.
If you want to enjoy the Hangout without creating a Google+ account, that's fine too! You can join us on our YouTube page as we're chatting. You won't be able to interact with us, but you will be able to watch in real-time.
We'd love to hear your feedback on the Google+ Hangouts. Join the discussion. -
