I, for one, welcome our new eyeball overlords.

Don't worry;
The old Heroes defeated the Ritki Invasion, easily!

What's that? Almost every Hero was killed during the Ritki Invasion?

Hmmm...
WE'RE GONNA DIE!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!!

...Hell, if we don't get any, I don't care, long as I get to take part and it lasts until midnight or longer. The Phantoms Of War will be on Perigrine Island tonight defending Paragon City.

Do what Superman does:

Clark Kent: I have to go to the bathroom!
Clark Kent's Boss: Huh? Oh, OK...
Lois Lane: Ever notice that he always has to go to the bathroom when our office radio says there's some disaster in the city?
Jimmy: And the fact that he's gone for several hours, and that shortly after he leaves the radio says Superman has just shown up at the scene?
Superman's Boss: Maybe he's Superman?
(Lois and Jimmy groan)
Jimmy: Not this again!
Lois: Clark wears GLASSES. Superman DOESN'T. If Clark was Superman, how could he see?

because superman changes from glasses to contact lenses..hahaha

OK i have been on this entire time and havent seen any evidence of an invasion. no eyeballs no portals no men with foil hats...
NOTHING is the invasion going to be stepped up a notch around peak hours so more people can enjoy it? or is it going to stay at this pace forever?

All ya office boys are lucky! I have to belly crawl out of the shop, and hide in a internet capable janitors closet just to read these boards!

Arggh, whats great is my night shift workin roomate is at home sleeping thru the whole shebang!<poor bastaid, wont answer the phone>

LOL righteous post Centerfire!!!

Paragon! This superhero promises to be on scene as quickly as possible, however I too am currently being detained against my will by the evil Boss-Lady (must be some kind of franchise, "yes you too can be an Evil Boss-Lady for only $49.99!"), and will be unable to extricate myself until well after 7pm CST!

Must......fight......these......bonds........arrrr rgh!!!

At the end of the work day...

if you see someone running faster than normal or jumping over cars, that is probably a COH player.

Shepherd King your presence is requested in Paragon City, please release your minions and report immediately.

Isn't that the truth!

I know I'll be driving like a mad man, where is my Gotta Play CoH bumber sticker at?

Hey, why didn't Holsten Armitage mention this to me? I thought we were buddies.

In fact, if this invasion is suppose to hit Brickstown pretty heavy, why is he standing there in the open?

I know! That senator dude that Holsten told us about is really an invader spy!!!11!!1 If we had let the Rikti kill him, he never would have reported back to his waiting armada of slave ships with Kill-O-Zap death rays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ONE!!!!!!!!!!

The Watchers/Observers are a royal pain. Not hard to kill solo, get 3 of them together and they can do quite a bit. Especially when they freeze you in place. Normally just a solo blaster I'll probably have to finally get a team together to take these things on. Since I can't pull the usual "hit one, back off, let that one follow you then blast the hell out of him... rinse and repeat" approach.

Brutes are easy, though. Nothing special. 2 hits gone.

Argh, 2 more hours before I can run home and log on (and I do mean RUN--I walk to work)!

Maybe a portal will open here at the office and liven things up a bit. Well, one can dream anyway....

Damn it, wait till office hours to be finished before you guys do this. Think about the people at EST time zones!!!! Dont start the invation anytime soon plz, do it when more people are online. I dont wanna miss a thing.

EST? What about those of us in the PST? And then we (I) who work "odd" hours? I'm not going to get home until after 8pm (PST).

EST? no, think about PST, that's pacific standard time. eastern standard time is several hours ahead on the west cost.

Lucky you, I live 40 minutes away and that is when traffic is smooth. I can already tell there will be 5 accidents and geese crossing the road when I leave here, 1 hour and 14 mintues and eagerly counting.

...sigh....

I have to wait for the Evil Incarnate Triumverate to leave

Evil Manager Man

The Inept Supervisor

Egotistical Department Director

.....*if* they leave early then I might get some time to save Paragon City tonight.....

..........gotta....keep......identity.....secret.. .......

You ever wonder if all of our bosses are also on a different bulletin board complaining about their employees who want to rush home and play video games? It's a vicious cycle!

Again, still, even though I am a cube-rat right now, I am hearing from friends playing online right now that there is not a lot happening. Maybe the DEVs have heard our cries and have held off much of the invaison until later.

I just posted something very similar to this on Virtue. But for general reading....

I went home for lunch to download update 2. As soon as i got into the game, I received about 4 badges. I went to check out the capes, and they look fantastic.
I went to Founders real fast to see the new villians, and they are really cool. Fear not people. There is no invasion going on right now. Currently there are sparatic, small mobs of new villians guarding portals.

Again, the invasion has not started. Don't worry about it. It probably won't being till later today or possibly tonight. You're currently not missing anything other than the new content which really rocks.

See you guys tonight!
