I don't know if this has been asked yet, please don't flame me if it has been. Have they confirmed the "hero goes evil, Villain goes good" situation yet? A SIMPLE Yes/No will do, i don't need 10 posts of 'I'm Not Sure' or 'it's still in discussion'. I JUST want to know if IT IS confirmed or not.

Yes, but not at launch.

I'm not sure, I think it's still in discussion.

One of the published magazine interviews confirms this. I think it was an interview with Lord Recluse.

In the interview he confirmed it was in development. And targeted for Issue 1 of COV. Additionally that it would likely cost all Influence/infamy with a chance at a further cost.

A posting on the beta board confirmed that you would keep your AT when you switch.

Last the same article confirmed it would be a mission where you made a decision. Based on that decision you would switch or not.

And thats all we know for certain. Anything else is speculation.

o.O my question on this is... do we get to keep our badges? I'm currently running around CoV with nimble minx and would love to bring the coh/cov badges over to other.. Yes, this would mean they'd need a "collected 300" badge sooner.. but... it would be really cool!

with ED on the way i think Statesman was no longer able to 6 slot his delaying tactics with 'soon' enhancements. now for maximum effect he can only slot 2 soons, 2 in developments and 2 we're discussing it.

Thank you Statesman, you're truely a hero! lol

I understand why it's in development... How would you possibly impliment a difference? I mean from a blaster you can become a corruptor but you are also a slight hybrid with a dominator... Scrappers Tankers and brutes are worse... each can go any direction, and would you (if you did transfer) be "starting" at your current level (what ever it was you did the "transfer" at) or would you start back at one with the name and that's it?

Can someone sticky, "Yes, Heroes can go bad and Villains can go good so stop making a new thread asking this same question every damn day and learn how to use the search button."

Hmm, that might be too long to fit in a thread title though.

Statesman already went villian, hence the lovely ED system that is being implemented.

Why would they *need* to convert classes? It would certainly make pvp easier to balance if both sides could have access to both class sets. Probably won't work like that though, although it would be cool IMO.

How about you go to Warburg (or any PvP zone), die, go to Warburg hospital and come out a Villain. You still have all of your Hero powers, but other Heroes will then con red, and you can't go back thru the Hero gate. No mucking around with powers needed.

After the quadruple nerfing my regen scrapper took, he'll be first in line. Although he'd probably rather be a mastermind and let minions do the scrapping from now on...

Haha. That was awesome. However, before I was hardcore anti-ED, now im just mainstream "don't really like it, but ill deal" ED.

Unless I am misunderstanding you, I think you're misunderstanding what happens.
You wouldn't be a blaster who becomes a corruptor, you would be a blaster hero who becomes a blaster villain. Everything stays the same, you just switch sides. Same with converting villains to heroes (which is why I dislike the AT name "Corruptor"... Everything else sort of works both ways, but corruptor just isn't heroic. I suppose Peacebringers have a similar situation, only reversed... Not very villain-y.

of course the question is why would you take a tank or a scrapper over to CoV and after the ED nerf why would you even play these classes. Tanks will be nothing more than brutes that dont havea damage bonus if that good and scrappers will be going down so fast they wont be any use to any one

In other words don't believe it iuntill you see it live.

remember all those universities popping up? now we find out in an off hand kind of way that they scrapped skills without so much as a how do you do. didn't even bother to announce it's death. but it's dead. In fact I even heard that i6 would introduce new melee sets. instead we got nerfed to [censored] hell..... a few pvp zones and some ui fixes that I could give a damn about.


 

Posted

Funny. I don't ever recall them saying melee sets were in i6. I do know that they said that the next planned sets are melee-based. They never said "when," though.

Post.

Blame yourself, for your misunderstanding.

Just give them time to figure out what powersets on CoV are too good and they will be nerfing them in line soon. So then it would make sense.

whichever. my point about skills still sticks. they killed off the idea and then didn't even bother to announce it. believe it when you see it. And that goes double when statesdork announces anything besides an upcoming nerf. the nerfs you can [censored] count on.


 

Posted

Delayed, not Destroyed.

You really need to research things before you further open your mouth. =/ Not saying you've no right to a thought or opinion, but at least get your facts straight.


 

Posted

far as I'm concerned the damned thing is dead in the water.

statesman hinted to that effect. even though most of the crap he says is ambiguous at best and half truth at worse. one thread says this.... another thread says that.... in the end? don't hold your [censored] breath.

And my statment still stands.

Don't believe anything untill it's on live servers.

untill then there are no FACTS to get straight.

done.
