The movement to a "once-per-week" maintenance schedule was, in my opinion, short-lived, with the introduction of the WST, and it's Tuesday rotation.
Moving the rotation to Thursday would allow CoX to go back to a once-per-week scheduled down-time, which would not only mean happier players, but more up-time for the CoX servers, and everyone in IT knows that server downtime equals loss of revenue or productivity, or both. -
working here as well.

I'm having this issue as well. Can't login at all after all servers came back up after the emergency maintenance today.

Quote:1) If lighting and atmospheric effects are baked in, then there's nothing really that can be done. The fog that comes up during a paranormal phenomenon in Atlas keeps coming to mind though. Couldn't something like that be applied on a more or less permanent basis on a mission map as well?
1} I'm pretty sure those are baked into the maps themselves. It would take an overhaul of the engine to support it.
2} How would those work? Temp powers available only inside the mission? If so, what are the downsides? If they're for keeps, what's to stop farming them?
2) Yes, temp powers available only inside the mission. Perhaps even only certain temp powers. Originally I was thinking of being able to use temporary costumes, like disguises, or just for effect. i.e. I have a mission where I'd love to put the hero/villain in a space suit, because there's no atmosphere. A bubble of some sort might also be good for this. In this case, it's for storytelling purposes. -
I'd love to see a couple of things added to MA.
1) The ability to set light and fog conditions (sliders, maybe?)
2) temporary powers, i.e. temporary costumes, weapons, buffs -
