How many of you enjoy just jogging arround the cities in Coh and Cov just taking in the scenary of the area.
The vast jungles of the nerva archepelago
the thick forests of croatoa
the towering cliffs of cimerora
the towering buildings of steel canyon.
To be honest the only place i have ever just hung arround in for the scenary are places like the shadow shard, the abyss and maybe pocket D.
The thing is for people to enjoy the scenary and climate you have to make a really epic landscape with really key lighting effects to make it pleasent, sinister, or epic to express the general wanted feel of the area.
Now i think that the general atmosphere of the CoX world is quite dull and 'grey' because there isn't too much excitement associated with city back ally's
Now if you look at superhero landscapes from films and such.
The massive frozen landscapes created by the silver surfer
the burning waerhouse in spiderman 2
the dark fast pased underpass in the dark knight
the lengthy deserts in the hulk
the crystal cave in superman
how many extravigant or vibrant landscapes do we have like that in Cox, not many i believe...
Now my point is that there is so much potential in the gameworld we have currently, with Ouroboros there is anywhere in any time zone as a place for a zone. there is the rest of the continent behind paragon city and croatoa has aready made use of that space so more could be added.
Now some people will probally be thinking that this will just add more content that will be used once and then not again, or will be outleveld and unused by most players, thats fair enough, but the way i would add this in would be as areas for end level content, and i know that the lack of endlevel content is one of if not the bigest problem the Cox team currently face with losing players, and i have myself surcome to this before when i have stopped playing the game due to lack of excitement.
So i recon by adding new zones with more epic zone events GM's climates and atmospheres the Cox team could make coX into a more end game friendly game with hopefully enough content to entertain us so that we would be happy enough to play only one character most of the time.
