Paragon Studios™ is proud to officially announce the next City of Heroes® expansion, City of Heroes Going Rogue™! This will be the first major expansion for the City of Heroes franchise since the launch of City of Villains® in 2005.
.
Praetoria, a utopian mirror to our own world, hides a dark secret. Exploring this mysterious alternate earth, the heroes and villains of this world feel an uneasiness of doubt creep over them. Loyalties are questioned. Choices are made. Lines are drawn. As they search for the truth behind Emperor Cole and his Praetorian guard, brutal foes and fierce allies emerge, turning this once blissful paradise into a battle ground.
.
City of Heroes Going Rogue officially opens the "mirror universe" of Praetoria and an all-new alignment system that explores the shades of gray that lie between Heroes and Villains. For the first time, Hero characters can become Villains and vice versa, enabling Heroes to cross over to the Rogue Isles™ and Villains to experience Paragon City™.
.
For more information, read the official press release and check out our new Going Rogue website to view the announcement trailer and register for the latest news and updates for City of Heroes Going Rogue.

With side-switching actually on the way, how do you think this will impact tanks?

Personally, I think there are room for tanks and brutes in 1-50 content, but I'm not sure what the general public will think.

Somebody had to start this thread.

It's amazing how we are losing functionality with MA, as opposed to gaining it.

I read it all. I've gotten a couple comments on my longest arc "Feet of Clay" that they didn't understand the appearance of someone in the mission. I tell them to read the souvenir, and then they get it. The follow up tells are always amusing.

This really is quite well done.

About time we had a response. I look forward to reading the badge changes.

and in this patch, they changed Master Builder to be EQUAL to Hall of Famer. (and not just equal in number, they even draw the comparison in the notes.) I'm surprised no one's mentioned that yet: what's the point of keeping the HOF badge around anymore?

[/ QUOTE ]

But it's not equal.

Master Builder is 100 votes, HOF is 1000.

Ugh, that's not good.

[ QUOTE ]
It's the badges that are outside of my control that are bothering me at this point.

[/ QUOTE ]

Fair point.

Go beat up Statesman. You'll feel better.

[ QUOTE ]
I'd much rather help Frostfire save his little brother's bizzare troll-crossed romance or what have you than go beat up Frostfire for the 8 bajillionth time.

[/ QUOTE ]A pretty fun arc, too.

I hope they remove Dev's Choice and Hall of Fame.

Also reduce the virual badge requirements as mentioned.

I had an arc broken because the EB/AV's bio was too long.

The standard bio of one of the main Dev created Villains - not a custom character at all.

No.

[ QUOTE ]
Perhaps in your case it isn't true. But several of those "Dev's Choices" arc... just aren't that special, which makes the selection process questionable at best.

[/ QUOTE ]From what I have read, a number of the Dev's Choice arcs were broken when MA went live.

And they can't be fixed with NC Soft help.

That being said, I really do wonder if Dev's Choice and Hall of Fame will get pulled.

Neat thread idea!

Thanks for including the arc numbers.

You can go ahead and pull me off the list.

Afraid I don't have the time to do rates for everyone.

Only fair to take me off.

Actually, those of us who truely play the market are making more money than ever before.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have made more inf since I14 launched than I did in the whole of I13 to I14.

[/ QUOTE ]

Heck, even those of us who only sort of play the market have made tons.

I mostly only make generic IO's and I have done well.

[ QUOTE ]
Confusing the issue is that I logged back in to double check, and spotted that I got two new votes on Time Bandits (no feedback, though), as well two more playthroughs. So either those two votes were drive-by fivings, and the Author badges lag badly, or the tracker is outright missing playthroughs.


[/ QUOTE ]I know my spouse and I played it through yesterday and I left feedback.

Yup, seemed to work fine on my MA Scrapper in Dragon's Tail.

It may be noticed, but most won't get it.

I put in the name of the person who requested Spiderling MK Becky in her dialogue.

[ QUOTE ]
You can use another Steadfast (up to 5 total), if you want.

[/ QUOTE ]
I thought you were wrong about this, but it's the +3 def that is unique.

Learn something new each day.

I've created my third arc.

It is a serious (probably too serious and dark) story arc. It does have a EB/AV at the end. Be sure to read the warning in the arc description!

I would love it to get some plays and feedback!

[ QUOTE ]
Its a comm officer farm.

[/ QUOTE ]

Didn't they fix those? Thought they reduced the extra XP they had been providing.

Definitely a good idea.

Would love people to try my first arc, Save the Spiderlings! Works for all levels, but best for low levels.

Easier to keep the little guys alive.

[ QUOTE ]

The only good part was the actual story idea and the two purples. That Armageddon Fire proc was verrrrry nice.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sounds like a 5-star arc to me!

[/ QUOTE ]

Probably the only reason I would play it again.

2 purples in 4 missions is pretty amazing. Sure it was a fluke, but worth a try again.

[ QUOTE ]
I am playing at least one arc a day, and I know other devs are also finding the time.

Generally the arcs miss being Dev Choiced by things like "Oh, did I forget to mention there is an AV on this map?"

In CoH/V we are pretty clear when there is an AV that you should bring some friends along to help you.

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you guys ever suggest they clean up spelling and usage errors? I played my first Dev's Choice today and it had multiple errors. I was shocked that it was Dev's Choice. The big villain was a minion. The NPC's, including the contact when he showed, were minions and mostly didn't have bios. I got sick of fighting -1 lvl mobs while running on Vicious.

The only good part was the actual story idea and the two purples. That Armageddon Fire proc was verrrrry nice.
