Now that Update # 2 - is fully fuctioning and on the Main servers. We can now turn our attention to Update # 3.

I know that some people aren't happy with Update # 2, I wasn't at first with the difficulty for the respec misison. but they fixed that, and any other issues that are actually a problem should be fixed now as well, or soon will be. So Onto # 3.

What are we going to see?, what do people want to see.

Rumors of trench coats. Also before was mentioned longer skirts etc.

I would like to see some more options at character creation.
More Hair Styles, More than 1 jacket, Animal Heads would be fun etc. Longer Skirts for Female Characters, Heck even cigars for women (for those who want them).

Maybe a Plastic Surgery Shop, where you could go back and change your body slider and gender, if you wanted to.

New body styles would be nice (and available in surgery shop).

Of course the standard, new bad guy groups, new zones etc.

What do people think?

God Forbid! Update #2 was hideous enough. (Update #3 and its inevitable river of bugs would be the final landslide that would wash the remaining veteran players away.)

I like what they did with Update 2, Yes launch day was a little rocky. I'm still feeling the sting of it. but everything seams to be working now.

So Update 3, which should hopefully be Nov/Dec (pre christmas release). With more coats and capes and Longer Skirts etc. People can bundle up, for when the Snow hit's Paragon City.

Let's not worry about Issue 3. This is at least the fourth thread I've seen asking about it. Truth is, it's months away. There's really no point in thinking about it yet.

True, it is month away, but I would love to hear from the devs what the main feature list is going to be. They must know at this point what they planning, but I understand that they may not want to tell us until it is final to minimize the hissy fits people always throw.

I may be a minority, but I promise if the devs tell us what is in Issue 3 I will not throw a hissy fit on the boards. =)

I don't mind so much 300 threads popping up about "what's in update 3?"

...

..just so long as each and every person clearly states their desire to have Trenchcoats added to this wonderful game.

Oh yes, it's in you too. The desire..

Desire. Trenchcoat. Calvin Klein.

The only things semi-confirmed for Update 3 (from what I have seen) is Epic Archetypes (AT's you can only start after you hit 50), Prestige Power Pools for higher level players, and the mysterious non-combat system. Originally customizable weapons were talked about as being Update 3, but I think those have been pushed back some.

Haven't heard anything personally about trenchcoats, etc. really since beta, so, I don't know about that, but I know they are coming some day in the mysterious future.

I'm still enjoying the bounties of Issue #2, so I can wait a while for tidbits on Issue #3.

My guesses based on previous things Statesman has said-
- Epic Archetypes
- Non-combat System
- Sonic & Bow powersets

You're a sick and twisted man, States. Get us hooked on the game, supplement it with the boards when we HAVE to be away from the game... then you wave dimebags in front of us every chance you get...

I'm going to send Squishy (my phantasm) after you.

I DARE CORRECT YOU SIR!!!

You only have a near perfect idea of what will be in it! But as you know very well, and as past updates have shown you, one or two things, maybe small ones WONT make it!!!


So, even if i have no clue what wont make it I start now asking for a justification of why they wont make it if you say you KNOW what will be in it....


j/k

See! This is exactly what I was afraid of! Thanks to you people and your "let's talk about Update 3" frenzy, now we get taunted for the next couple months!

It's like being a kid a month before Christmas. Except this kid has parents who like to say things like, "Wow Billy, you're really going to enjoy your... Oh, nevermind."

You evil, evil, evil, evil person...

I'll also add my name to the "I want to see trenchcoats" list, although I've said that before often enough. I agree that Update #3 is far enough away that we shouldn't really have to think about it yet.

However, I would like to point out that since neither Update #1 (remember that?) nor Update #2 added new capabilities to our heroes, I would like to see at least a few new Power Sets. Not that the Epic Archetypes won't give us some new Power choices, but I still think we could use some development of the original character design system.

Really, we've had a lot of changes in the environment of the game, and in the ways we can customize our characters and the things they can choose to do. But we are still really interacting with this changing environment with the same characters we had in Beta. Better balanced and with more bugfixes, maybe, but no new options.

I keep hearing about Scrapper Punching and Staff and Bow weapon sets, and I can wait if they aren't in Update #3. But to be honest, I kind of expected to start seeing them by now.
