I liked it, nice job...

and the point of architect is............Never having to do a Golden Roller story arc, ever again...

Not sure if this is what your asking for, but, there's a section below this called MA Stories and lore.

Once upon a Positron there was a bug. It's purple Mankey liked saving walruses deaths. Until a green shoe fell off a pretty cloud of root beer fluff cleaving off seven little toes while chewing Bubblegum. After seeing the drunk Pinnacle-ite puke chunky bits of magnets, it stumbled into a garbage carafe. Feeling pretty depressed, it died a Lonely death.

Elsewhere, there were some hungry hippos dancing on me for every time one slurps from the fountain

You guys (paragon studios) have successfully recreated a historical issue right after the U.S. developed the atomic bomb.

You let the genie out of the bottle.

And just like America, you want to stuff him back in. AE was a major fiasco, not because it was a bad idea but because you didn't feel the need to listen to the player base or testers. You guys knew where AE was going to lead to.

Well for my one arc, it's alien race bent on conquest of the earth through experimenting on human's to find their weaknesses..So you get experiements of all kinds, plus the alien race is a nilistic lot, so you get the real nasty side of them..

Nice work!!!

AE officially now sucks. Not only it has been nerfed the mishes with just bosses are so much tougher and no one does normal mishes anymore so the new issue just screwed everything.

Learn...adapt...evolve.

Capes, swords, weapons have to be unlocked for use with your custom boss..

Run a few missions, get tickets, and unlock them...

If you enable the boss with Resurgence, on WP, he will rez..Is this what you mean?

Or you could create a farm mish and get tons of hits..

there is a quote from Gogol "if there is a gun hanging on the wall in act 1 it should go off in act 3". I disagree with the statement - but the wholeheartedly believe the reverse. If a gun goes off in act 3 - it should be shown in Act 1.

This applies to many details in mission arcs - but especially to bosses. If you create an AV at the end of your arc and the first time I've heard of him is when I see him at the end or in the nav, I won't care much about him.

If the arc is to defeat Mr. Big - make sure he is a "presence" throughout the arc.

Have the intro text to other missions mention that Mr. Big is behind it.
Have bosses in other missions say "Mr. Big wants you stopped" or "Once I defeat you, I will be powerful enough to take on Mr. Big".
Have minions say "We'd better pull this off or Mr. Big will rip our arms off."
Have rescued people say "They were taking me to Mr. Big, he might burn me with his flames"

By the time a player reaches Mr. Big they should have heard his name a dozen times, know that he is really tough and scary - and have some clue as to what his powers are.

Although I almost agree with your post, it depends if the antagonist in the arc is pretty straight forward. If the arc in itself is based on a mystery, keeping subtle hints works best.
If you've ever done the Lady Grey TF, you'll know what I mean.

So will Steam implement voice chat during actual COX gameplay?

I love MA..The good and the bad of it tho...

Good-Addicted. Yes, this is a good thing.
bad-Addicted. I now take my laptop to work with me and create mish's there..

Also the inclusion of GM would be awesome.

I hope the best that life has to offer shines on you daily..Take care.

It's Best Buy!! There's no such thing as a wasted trip when you go there!!

Great video, very well done...

Jeez, you guys don't let someone up for a breath for a moment..I'm still reeling after ish 14, and now the booster!!
Thank you much, devs.

Curious about enemy powers. In this pic it says "thugs"..Does this mean we can have a MM eb or AV?

I can create my own enemy factions???? Drooooooollll

I had this question on my mind for a while, and since I'd like to keep this thread alive a little bit longer:

What maps, levels, landscapes would you NOT want people to use, excessively?
EX: If I never have to do a claustophobic cave mish again, I'll be happy.
I hear some people hate shadow shard maps
And personally, I can't stand council maps.

Yes, it has arrived!!!!

1) Kheldian fix
2)Shields
3)Rikti raids
4)winning a vid card from the CC

Thanks for the update, Ex-Libris..
