Ummmm why haven't we been given an official announcement on this?
I think we deserve one!
[/ QUOTE ]
Cause there's no one employed left in the office?
Edit:
Well, apart from Ghostraptor, it seems.

Best of luck man, hope everything works out for you. -

Nothing in there about NorCal?
[/ QUOTE ]
Considering the funds pumped into setting up NorCal I would be very surprised if they are affected in the slightest.
As far as I can see this is all about the supporting/publishing structures around the Dev team.
[/ QUOTE ]
But if NorCal aren't part of NC West and NC West are responsible for (at least the community end of) COH....?
I don't know what I'm trying to say there, but there's a concerned tone in my voice when I'm saying it. -
I now feel compelled to download Tabula Rasa and give it another try, just to put some money in the coffers.
Damn, maybe advertising does effect me? -

Just noticed this at Massively.com,
You alright there guys?

Check out the twitter feed on Rockjaw's Blog.
I think ths answer is 'no'.
[/ QUOTE ]
Holy [censored]... oh dear, oh dear. This does not bode well. What about the other COH folks? If their boss is gone, then who's going to replace him?
Sorry you got made redundant RJ. Hope everything works out for you -

I've got Google Alerts set up for "City Of Heroes" and my mailbox has been getting spammed all day with that story.
So it's obviously true, as it's on teh intarwebs.
Shame about that. Wonder if all that money spent on the COH licence caused it? (Given that NC Austin laid people off too) -
Ditto - Every other MMO I've tried has been disappointing - the only one that ever came close to COH was SWG, but, well, it was bugged to hell (3 years to fix a bug that prevents you doing a starting level mission? No thanks.) And then they cripple the interesting game with to make it the same as every other MMO?
COH seems to be the only MMO for me at the moment. I've tried to dabble and I've come away fairly disappointed every time.
Here's to many more years. -
You know, when I first heard this, I was against it, but you know what? I've got a lot of characters I hardly touch and it'll be a nice bonus when I dust them off and log them in.
-
Happy Birthday RW. Long may they continue (Proliferation treaties be damned!)
-
a) A fair few - it's been such a while (took me 6 months to get my first 50), but I do remember a lot of alts (and many re-rolls)
b) Never done it. I've added a few IO sets, but nothing major -

Yeah - he was standing over the Clockwork King when a violent sneezing fit came on, and while he put one hand over his mouth, he still had his shield in the other, and each time he sneezed, he kinda whacked the King with it totally not on purpose
[/ QUOTE ]
Exactly. I wish more people would understand this!
But, I see myself rapidly approaching the point where no matter how often I show the actual Blue Shield story - rather than this "HE GETS ANGRY AND SMASHES LOL" one folk judge him on - it's just going to be ignored. I'll bow out of this now, I think.

Awwww. -

The new My Little Pony MMORPG, coming to Paragon City,soon.
[/ QUOTE ]
That would be a bit limited, I think - even though I was once very keen on the toys, before I moved onto real horses
[/ QUOTE ]
Oh so many comments..... -
I have a bio on every single one of my characters - I can't play them unless they have a weight of history behind them, even if I'm the only one that knows it.

Maybe you're getting him confused with his Praetorian counterpart?

Sigh. No. Never mind. -

BAB (the character) being responsible for the Superadine trade, whilst publicly taking it down
[/ QUOTE ]
He isn't. Well... according to Paragonwiki.
[/ QUOTE ]
Erm... you do know that the whole point of doing something secret kind of compels you not to publish your nefarious activities on a wiki, right? -
Perhaps there's a sinister reason why Blue Steel got away with it that we can expand upon in the Mission Creator
Much like
BAB (the character) being responsible for the Superadine trade, whilst publicly taking it down
Longbow being (really!) well hidden 5th Columnists
Statesman and Lord Recluse actually having swapped personalities years ago
And other such gems which despite being well written, will never get dev approval -

Hopefully, you'll be able to place additional named bosses like the Atta's Guards in the Atta mission.

I do see the cool factor in designing missions but I have to ask:
Are they going to give us tools to help us differenciate the standard missions we do right now?
If not, how can we create missions that are more fun and original to play than we currently get on the live server?
And if we can do things/ create missions that are superior to the type that we currently recieve, then why the heck arent the devs serving them up to us already?
[/ QUOTE ]
I'd imagine that the only differences which we'll be able to influence will be the story and how the characters are presented in the story.
That's more than enough to get me excited. -

Yes, I want to make the Kronos Titan /e flip
[/ QUOTE ]
Well maybe a restriction on what you can have - coffee, tea, fear, doughnuts, laptops etc. The standing emotes.
Or (if one day we get the chance) the ability to position some fishermen? -
I'm really hoping that we can set the waiting emotes on the characters in our missions, so they can be looking at laptops or drinking coffee or something more interesting than listening/dancing to music/throwing fire.

A Euro isn't equal to a pound. The bank trasactor is quite capable of converting euros to pounds and deducting the correct amount from your account.
[/ QUOTE ]
Correct - according to Xe.com earlier, if you pay in Euro's it would be the same as spending £7.33, a substantial price difference over £5.99 for the product on offer. -
At over 20% more expensive to pay in Euros than £'s, that's a big relief.
Why you Euro folks put up with it, I'll never know. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll just head off to buy some CDs which are 50% more expensive than they are in the States....

Sorry, he only gets to be in combat if he's gone rogue and the heroes get to beat him up too. I have a rather unflattering name for him involving ramrods and bottoms.
[/ QUOTE ]
Percy? -
With the introduction of the forthcoming Shields powerset, does that mean that we'll finally get the chance to knock seven shades of hell out of the man responsible for the Clockwork King?
Are you interested in seeing Blue Steel in combat? (Have I missed a rare mission where he actually is in combat?)
And if you do face him, what would you say to him before you knock him senseless (or protect him, if you're on that side of the fence?) -

As to how many will be playing them, it might also depend on whether they are "instant access", in that you go straight into the mission without having to travel to the mission door:
[/ QUOTE ]
I hope not. Some of my planned story arcs involve getting started with specific contacts, without having to make the first mission a delivery mission
[/ QUOTE ]
Remember, they've already said the PCC will be presented to us as "training simulator" missions. Somewhat like a danger room sort of thing.
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, so they did
It'll no doubt work like Ouroboros does -
