I'm not sure that this says anything new. I think the feature update web page as more details actually.
Also when asked states says, COV "this year" That is about all we could get out of him. We even sent the cutest girl we could find find to chat with him. Still he would not give up the details.
Anyway, states it was nice to meet you. Thanks for coming to SF.

Probably would have worked on James Bond... 
Statesman, on the other hand, has 6 slotted "willpower".
I liked the ides of march reference goes with the whole arena thing too ... I saw a stone tanker pulling of arrow shots with his invisible bow though so that cant be toooo far away ..hopefully and apparently there will be a new sitting style
[ QUOTE ]
New Epic AT's will be introduced as ... "Shape-Shifting Trout" for Uber Scrapper Powers and "Shape-Shifting Poodles" with Uber Defender Powers.
[/ QUOTE ]
yeah.. I hear those trout-slaps are BRUTAL...

Someone will build a Japanese Schoolgirl SG.
They will then take them into the arena and have Lord Darkity Dark Dark Doom assault them with Tentacles. The arena instance will crash as otaku observer fanbois by the thousands log into the battle view.
[/ QUOTE ]
I will note now that it is confirmed that schoolgirl-style skirts will be added in the costume update (see the WonderCon postings). I'm already halfway there on my prediction coming true.
Gods help us all. :P

Hey hey HEY! Don't go underestimating Bond James Bond, he would get the girl, but he wouldn't give up the info, at least not the real stuff.

Oh, and I hear Update 4 is where the put the portal mission to a world where Skuls have taken over after mankind destroys Earth. Half the other villian groups end up with a world, why not them? :P
[/ QUOTE ]
Maybebecause they can't even take over Kings Row? And the fact that everyone wants to kil them now, I think that kids mission was kill 10 only guys. Not 10 million.
And to get back to the original topic, I guess March 17th, because it's Saint Patrick's Day, for no other reason than that, because the Irish rock! Why yes . . . my last name does start with O' . . . why do you ask??
[ QUOTE ]
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that many skuls will be killed.
Oh, and that tankers will decide once against that they are unplayable after a small change that's not all that significant.
[/ QUOTE ]
Good thing that everyone who makes snarky comments on tankers has actually played one, or tried to level one, huh? Can you imagine the impression you'd give people if you hadn't yet? So easy to comment on the outside... so brave, so funny, and so heroic! 
Detour - 50 Inv/SS Tank - on since Beta; Foresight - 50 Controller - on since Summer 2004
Zephyr. - 28 Scrapper - April 2005 1st Place,Victories/ 1st Place, Outcast Nemesis - Steel Canyon - Victory Server- all on Victory.
Catalyst Kid - level 50, Justice server
Wind Racer - level 50, Virtue red side

Hmm, you seem to have some Rage issues, excuse the pun, looking at your posts, you as a player should want the game to be fun, yet you seem to take it way to seriously, and if you are one who wants a comic book tank, you expect to walk away from all battles without a scratch. Would comics sell if the heroes never had any challenges? I doubt it. I bet any hero you can hame has a cover with him lying there near dead, hi buttox royally wipped, even super man. I have a feeling issue 4 will see you still disappointed, and unable to have fun in what is really a fun game. I have fun just super jumping around!
I'm still with St. Patty's day for teh win!

And just because he doesn't list one in his sig MUST mean he doesn't have one, right?
[ QUOTE ]
I'm guessing that Accuracy will be nerfed.
[/ QUOTE ]
After I4 please remind Geko to change his signature profile
This is Rumor Control - Accuracy has not been nerfed!
It is still 75% to hit target unless the power says otherwise, there are buff/debuffs used, or the target is not your level.
For everyone who keeps asking the predicted release date of update 4....read the first 3 post at the top of this thread....I predicted March 24-25 release date....Statesman then says....Nerf accuracy...meaning for you who dont understand...My predicted March 24-25 is close to the predicted release date...
Stateman writes in code???
Hmmm....If he doesn't mean Accuracy in the literal sense you are saying that he is hinting that your guess as to the date of release will be nerfed (reduced/increased). If this guy is writing in codes then I'm gonna have to start reading more into what he says.

Lets see who will get the closest to guessing when update 4 will go live.... I guess...March 25....
[/ QUOTE ]
You know... if you had just said go live on the test server, you would have been damn close.
I'm predicting we'll never see PvP, EVER.
Or tomorrow. I hope it's tomorrow.
