I've enjoyed all the i20 content. I like running the trials, I adore the new TFs, and I love my new Incarnate powers. I'm looking forward to i21... or 20.5, if that comes instead.

Quote:Wow, moderators moderating? Crazy idea, isn't it?But I am guessing CoH with their moderation happy moderators (who ignore messages even tho they say they wont) will do everything they can to make the chat sterile and boring.
Quote:In any case all this event will do is take ppl of the live servers to go get a temp title (like it matters on test) and some costume codes everyone already has. Guess it's 3 hours that there will be little teaming being done. Another win for pointlessness. -
Quote:It's not disappointing. Look more closer. If you read it correctly, there will be something happening, they just haven't announced specifics yet.While this is disappointing, it is very interesting as well...
Woot 7 years :P Looking forward to upcoming events..
I predict..... Warwalkers in Atlas Park! Giant robots storming the city streets! All hands to battle stations! ^^ -

Quote:All things considered, rebuilding a few broken bridges and damaged buildings is going to go faster than a zone with a huge crack in the ground, or a zone where every building is decimated.Uh, the new Faultline and that villain mission where you halt the rebuilding of Boomtown say so. Faultline is full of obvious signs of construction, and Boomtown is still trashed because jerk villains keep showing up and wrecking all the mundane construction equipment they're using to try to fix the place up.
You do realize that the trope namer for A Wizard Did It was an attempt to explain away sloppy continuity, right? Invoking it doesn't exactly help your case.
And remember that the Rikti War affected every part of Paragon City, and the rebuilding efforts probably focused on Atlas and outward first. Boomtown and Faultline may be last on the list. -
Think of it like this: Cole and his Praetorian Guard only empower their IDF flunkies when they are nearby, as in the Apex/Tin Mage TFs and the Trials. In Sutter, they're not present. This attack is led by lower ranked Praetorian officers, who don't have access to Cole's Incarnate godliness.

Hathaway can pull it off. She has the body and the acting skill. I trust in Nolan to make it work. He turned Brokeback Mountain in the best Joker ever.

He stuns? Funny, my Brute never noticed.

Quote:Just because other MMOs can do it doesn't mean it's a good idea, short of a total reboot of the entire game, which isn't what we're talking about. And I was not talking about updating content, I was talking about leaving zones demolished to accomodate missions. You completely and utterly missed the point.Completely and utterly wrong. Other MMO's can, have and DO update older content to tie up with new content. I'd mention one in particular, but forum rules forbid it.
It's a matter of resources only. So far, in i20, I've seen NOTHING to justify the secrecy of the signed NDA, and was hoping something like an old zone update was one of the things they were wanting to keep secret till launch, but nope. Instead, they waste resources on a stupid "participation ranking" system for the new trials that no one wanted, or likes. -
Quote:You seem to have some unrealistic expectations from an MMO. You won't see "long lasting damage" in the actual zones. The game cannot work like that. No MMO could. The zones have to remain static for new characters and players. They cannot cater to old characters/players in that way.See, this is what I hate about all the new content we've been getting lately since GR. Skyway is NOT destroyed, I assure you, it's perfectly fine. I just took a flight around there and it's looking just like it always does. Same for Kings and Steel. All places wrecked by this "war" we're apparently in with the Praetorians.
Until such time as we SEE all of this happeing in the world zones, it isn't happening. It's completely ridiculous to go in to a mission, see a large area of a game zone totally wrecked, and then when you come out it's all perfectly fine.
It utterly destroys any kind of immersion or continuity, and tears the 4th wall down whilst mooning the players. -
I love how Booster's fan club t-shirts have his likeness from the comics and not how he looks on the show.

Sorry you don't find giant killer robots, an evil Incarnate-charged Tanker, one of the most powerful heroes in Paragon, and the invasion and destruction of Skyway, to be epic.

Quote:I agree. Seeing has his old shield was...but I think the new weapon they mention is the laser type of shield we see James use in Next Avengers based on the gadget on his left wrist.

...destroyed by Loki in the finale arc, he's in need of a new one. Tony probably makes him an energy-based shield that projects from that wrist band they show him wearing.
