Weren't Incarnates supposed to be Issue 9 or Issue 10?
[/ QUOTE ]
I don't recall Incarnates ever being mentioned in the same breath as any particular upcoming Issue by a developer. They've been pretty consistant about not mentioning any time frame about new EATs.

Well, If I were him...and I had this great story of war and rebuilding. I would be most excited about the story content. Posi eluded to the rebirth of an old villain group in I9. I hear rumors of the Rikti Ship openning and of the Rikti homeworld being explored as well. Also the thought of the 5th Colums return has been talked about.
Either of these would excite me were I the creative mind behind this game. If only I were

If I'm remembering correctly, the devs said that they want to put Incarnates in one of the upcoming issues after 8 (either 9 or 10 I believe) since those issues were from the former retail expansion and a new EAT was supposed to be included as well, however the EAT doesn't fit into the new storyline the game will move into with those issues, so they're having trouble fitting the EAT in for a proper release.

As befits the company name, Emmert also hinted at things to come for the City of Heroes/Villains franchise. When I asked him what he was most excited about moving forward, he told me that it was Issue 9. Given theyre still in the middle of putting together Issue 8, this was a surprising answer. Unfortunately, well have to wait and see what they have up their sleeves.

Would anyone have educated guesses as what is to come in Issue 9, seeing as how Issue 8 is still halfway through its development push?

Statesman is excited about Issue 9 because of the new technology that allows them, finally, to actually make Hickman wear pants. ALL of the time.

Don't ever recall them saying incarnates would be the box set EAT. All I recall them saying is that a) there would be an EAT in the box, and b) issues 10-12 would take up what was going to go into the box.

I bet the Statesbaby has more to do with his lack of sleep. 
[/ QUOTE ]
I think that's just a ruse! He doesn't want to let on how much he really does care about the skills/invention system!
And don't you dare bring up the arch-enemy and legend systems. The man is weary enough as it is! 
States, go put your feet up and have a Zagnut bar on us! You've earned it buddy!
[/ QUOTE ]
If you think baby statesman keeping his daddy up at night is a ruse, then I suggest that you have one and you will see with a screaming baby at night no one sleeps.

For the average mortal, this is correct. But remember, States is an incarnate! Along with inheriting a fraction of Zeus' power he may have also absorbed the diety's parenting abilities. Dr. Spock be damned, it doesn't take a masters of mythology to know how well Zeus handled fatherhood. And to think his kids still turned out okay!
(Of course I'm joiking here and no offense meant to the big man and his bouncing caped crying crusader. )

Ahh young hero but you must also remember that the son has inhereted the father's abilities and like Zeus who was the son of the Mighty Kronos, he may surpass the father which means right now that would include screaming. Can you say Sonic boom

Ah, but they still haven't announced the three year vet reward yet. Posi did say it would be something spectacular and worth the wait... What better reward could there be in this game then rolling up an Incarnate for all your trouble?

Hey guys, a quick clarification:
The Invention System and the "Legends" System are "one in the same"...
Basically the Legends system, as it was designed, was not implemented, but out of it grew what will be known as the Invention System. The Invention System does what we wanted the Legends System to do, and a whole lot more, and lays the ground work for limitless expandability that the Legend System just didn't have.

Tell us more!
Please!
Bloops. Well, I stand corrected. I had no idea one system had supplanted the other.
But that still begs the question...anything coming for level 50s in Issue 8 (new contacts/missions)?

Don't take it personally if you think I was mean to you. I'm an ******* to everyone.
It's a penguin thing. Pingu FTW.
Wait...so...there's NO Legends content in Issue 8?
:?
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Limitless expandability? Intriguing... darn you, ya big tease! Now I need to know more

Wait. What? How can expanded level 50 gameplay and Hero 'tradeskills' become one and the same? Limitless expandability? Swha?
Hmm... With this limitless expandability I see stockpiling of salvage in the near future. Bases be darned!

If it reduces you, it's a nerf.
If it buffs the mobs, it's challenge.
