I see no mention of base issues for i-10. I was under the impression they said i-10 would give bases some loving, finally, and maybe even get items of power, SG missions, etc. back online.
I'd much rather have the stuff we DO have work than get a bunch of new stuff that will likely only half work never to be fixed.
I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords
Liberty
My 50s:
Hero: Armor Assassin (scrapper), Cross Dresser (scrapper), Surly Seaman (blaster), Defensive End (Tank), Rad Rhino (Cont)
Villain: Beast Infection (Corr), Sweet Zombie Jesus (MM), Milk Weasel (Stalker), Orgullo (MM), Agent Eris (Crab)
Looks pretty cool.
Holy Rikti Crap Monkies! 
High Beam - 50 Blaster Energy/Ice - 1228 Badges
Munitions Mistress - 50 Mercs/Traps
Many Other 50's, Too Many Alts, All On Freedom
Just Because You Can, Doesn't Mean You Should!
I was thinking the same thing, since there isnt really any new power sets, or major adjustments
that should cut down on the dev time in the barrel. which is good. Finnaly there will be a permanent Co-op which Me and my bro
are just gonna love.
Also, could I have something like jump-jets as a back costume piece to go with my pretty rocket boots.

It's going to be cool...But is it the only thing coming with Issue 10? I hope not, I'm really pining for some new powersets.
Since the Rikti invasion force has returned then new heros with new unseen powers should show up as well Hint hint... lol
no new powersets 
This is gonna be awesome. Period.

Rikti drop tech stuff right?
Please consider changing this to magical..
[/ QUOTE ]Something needs to be done, the last thing we need at this point is more worthless tech salvage, we can get this on any freak farm or tv farm. From here on out devs you need to make at least 1 magic faction for every tech you add in a level range or it is going to be some severe imbalances on the market.

A good start would be to make all the magical foes actually drop arcane salvage. Getting tech salvage from a Legacy Chain is just plain wrong.

Second, I hope the Rikti forces dropping in the newbie zones (Mercy Island/ Galaxy City (which sees very few high level characters)) will have the Rikti level appropriate otherwise there will be a slaughter of new characters as they try to get to their missions.

Ah... brings back memories of the Rularuu invasion. *sniffle*
They were in all zones, and level appropriate... but still as tough as nails. They still were slaughtering lower levels whole sale.

That was awesome, actually. You'd get a few people together, go after some white minions who would just destroy you immediately and ruthlessly, lol.
And these where the days you could rack up XP debt before you dinged lvl 2!
If this brings anywhere near the level of frantic running and rampant death as the Rularuu, totally worth it. Make AP thier central invasion point

A better start is for people to stop farming and just PTFG.

And where anywhere in that person's post did it say that they were farming for salvage, instead of just, as you so wonderfully put it, playing the game?

Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of holy crap this looks awesome I seem to hear ringing from the replies. I can't wait to see this. THe co-op sounds incredible, and who wouldnt like to put a beat down on the rikti ?
I just peed a little.
My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.

In the picture marked "Advanced Rikti Weapons" there are Malta in the background, in what appears to be the Crash Site, or War Zone, or whatever the new name is going to be.
35-50 co-op zone?
Oh...I need a tissue.

It is my place to stand.

Yup, I pretty much agree with most everyone here when I say this Issue might quite possibly be the best Issue we've seen yet.
Bravo, Cryptic! This looks fantastic!

Okay, either Issue 10 is officially over 3 YEARS late ...
... or ...
... somebody let Statesman "do the math" again ...

Au contraire, mon ami. The grammar for Lighthouse's sentence is correct. "Issue 10, the tenth expansion since COH went live in April '04..."
I wish the 5th would return. I want a Grammar Naaazi archetype.

Wow, exciting news. Highly informative "Game Update" release.

Looking forward to this very much.
This is awesome!
By the time it rolls around, I'm pretty sure Street Wolf will be at 50 already, but it gives me more reason to break out Scrapyarder again ^_^.
