The cliche! It burns!
Otherwise, very nice. I wonder what else Recluse will have named the WEB by I7 - we've got Warburg's undergroup area, and now a good half of the 40-50 zone.
Were those Thug MMs I saw near the end of the video?
LOL dont even think of having SS as a travel and goign to this zone.
Boycott Ncsoft if they close down Coh.
Ive got the minions, lts and boss screenshoted but I cant get it to save it with the quicktime. They are right after the red guy raises his hand though.
Take a dash of Illuminati, add a sprinkle of Mafia and just a touch of Omnipresnce and a healthy helping of mob violence...

MOVE.... ALONG....
I've been trying to spot the Brute with the electrical melee.
Fun video and read, regardless.
I liked the video, finaly got to see one of those Arachnos Flyers in action! So now I finaly understand how they're suppose to work.

funny you say that, as I read I was sooo happy i have SJ on my 40. Looks like fly would be really fun to check everything out however.
The zone looks like it should be very interesting for my main villain and her SS. The Thug pets look great. The trenchcoats they had on seemed pretty well done, and the fact they they fight with dual machine gun pistols is extremely cool. I'll definently be making a Thug MM when I7 hits.
nice Video and Read.
anychance we can get a date on when its going to hit test
Much Coolness here ... too bad the video on Gamespot's so tiny though

On first watch, I was thinking it was the guy using the red electric type powers that various Arachnos do. Watching it again though, one of them uses a range attack with it, so I'm inclined to think that's a Patron Power.

I am soooooooo hoping that it was. I replayed that part about 6 times and that is the only conclusion I could come up with. My head is spinning right now! I can't wait!!!
That site is evil...it resized my browser window. :-P
Other than that, very impressive.

I am very much looking forward to fighting against a hovercopter. At first the idea of thug pets turned me off. I've been hoping for elemental MM's for awhile. But lately I've been strangely looking forward to it. Should be interesting to see what seperates them from mercs.

Too cool. Nice video. Looks like Thugs are more like Old West Posse though

Grandville looks sweet. Can't wait.

Incorrect. It's been mentioned in dev digest previously that there will be many
elevators.
I mean, consider the Quartermaster in Cap au Diable, on top of the skyscraper. You
just enter the building at ground level, take the elevator, bam.

Well, two nice hints to Post-I7 goodness, too.
We got to see the thug minions with trenchcoats. Now, it's easier to add something like that to a character with very limited animation options, but that's a whole lot closer to trenchcoats for the players.
Also, seems they've started on animations for dual-weild machine pistols... now just flesh out the power set and we have PISTOLS for the players. I8, ya think?
evil site i agree
as for video? love it cant wait to see it on test/live
first time i saw it i thought the pistal shooter was a PC
now with you all saying it might be a MM thugs hmmm what would be the mm powers be then to go with this? western style shot gun?

Dude they already stated it'll be friendly to people with non-vertical travel powers. They have elevators and such that'll get you from level to level.

I have been wondering the same thing for a while now myself.
I wonder is you could get a badge from killing the roaming Arachnos Flyer? And who was that guy that tossed a grenade into that hole? Regardless, I can't wait for some dual-pistol wielding, trenchcoat wearing thugs to tote around.

Check out the latest update on this new vertical zone where players will encounter mutated Arachnoids and a huge new cast of characters including Lord Recluse himself!
