LoL

They can put in 4 after 5 and call it:

Issue 4: The Lost Episode

Well, my search through a latin dictionary reveals that the word:

'colosseum'

Isn't a proper latin word, at all, regardless of spelling. It's a poetic, inflected form of 'colosseus' which simply means: big, large, huge, larger-than-life.

Is States being even more cryptic than usual? Maybe he's trying to tell us the next Issue will be, ahem, pardon me, colossal?

heh

Maybe it'll have that much needed slider for the males so they can all be "big, large, huge, larger-than-life." Hmm. What did they wear under those togas anyway?

If this title hint is pointing towards PVP ..well you dont have to be an oracle to see the troubles coming our way. I can already see the turmoil and flames. The second a Scrapper decks a Blaster with a crit or Jack Frost pwnz a Defender -Madre Mio!!!

I have secretly longed for Greek mythology to make its way into CoH....

Please let this be it...

Well, even though the title refers to a huge place where many fights took place a long time ago, I do not think PvP will be coming next issue.

Maybe I am wrong.

I think the building of these and the library's or research universities will be built and some other things will be in game, but I do not think issue 4 will have the PvP but elements for it will be in it. I think issue 5 will be released within close proximity to the release of CoV and thats when we will get bases for both Evil and Good, and I think when PvP will be instituted.

Just my hunch peoples. Just my hunch.

I just gave you five stars Mr. MysticDarkAngel for these three reasons:

Staying ontopic: Seems to me that this is another thread being hijacked by those who doesn't agree with the Devs decisions regarding issue 3.

Speculation: Your speculations for the content of issue 4 in regards to the title are very interesting and I concur. I believe it still seems to early to put in PvP. Unless they use one really, really, really big disclaimer that changes will be made during the Arena testing and after it's gone live.

Signature: That has to be the very best signature I have ever seen. Especially in regards to what game we are playing, changes and the nature of these official boards. ^^

Hmm. A quick google shows that chapter 34 of "The Count of Monte Cristo" is called "The Colosseum"...

So maybe the chapter signifies the transition from issue 3 to 4?
PvP is a given, hence Colosseum, where the gladiators fought in Rome.
From what I read (I've never read the book before), The Count of Monte Cristo is a story about the revenge and hatred of an innocent man (the Count), and in particular, chapter 34 concerns the financial losses of one of the Count's foes. Maybe some kind of storyline concerning Statesman and some new enemy of his?

(Note: This could all be wrong. )

Did anyone else see what Statesman response was?

Colliseum or whatever... a GLADIATOR ARENA!

I'm just taking a wild stab at it but I see PvP in our future...

Statesman I will marry you and have your children for that little clue.

LLamaBoy · 01-04-2005 07:20 PM

Um, yes, PvP has been planned from the very beginning...

Hey States, will Issue 4 let my tanker bring a swank, personally customized Mace into the Colosseum?

No no no. You shouldn't have fixed the typo. In fact, you should have named the expansion the way you spelt it the first time. That way, everyone would spend all their time pointing and laughing at the mispelling, instead of griping about how I4 has ruined their lives.

You don't want to ruin lives, do you Staties? Give it some thought.

I'm Tealeaf, and I approve of this message.

Man, I can't wait for the b1tch-fest when I chain-hold one with my epic petrifying gaze as a scrapper! And then nail 'em with a crit from dark blast! Yeah, I really shouldn't be fanning the flames of cross-AT hate, especially since my 2nd highest level character is a blaster, but still.
