Lighthouse, the opening to this is the single greatest display of subtlly dark humor ever committed by a Red Name.
ty lighthouse...there has been a lot of speculation as to when this would come back and how it would work...so i..and i'm sure many others...am glad to know not only when the planned invasions are gonna be at this point...but also how long they will be
Yes i can get the badges on my other alts now lol
Nice. Very nice. Thank you very much for bringing it back. How about, in the future, invasions once a month or so, depending on popular demand?
EDIT: Pown, Lighthouse says the invasions will be 24 hours.

YAY! What a birthday gift!
Thanks, I was really hoping that this would happen. Out of all the issues I've been around for (since i3), this is my favorite one. Thanks again!

Hmmmmm,
Am I the only one who's wondering how Lighthouse came by this information?
He's a Rikti Spy I tell you!

Shoot on sight, please.
Personally, I think the proposed schedule of one weekday and one weekend day per week to be a good permanent schedule for the invasion
Good show. Much well deserved praise goes to the Devs and Community team for responding quickly to the high demand which the invasion created (Even if the majority of it is for badge hunting).
Of course, they may have planned this encore all along, but I'll remain blissfully naive and assume that it was a matter of quick thinking on their part. Not that it matters much either way. Well done. The spaced out invasion schedule means most everyone will get ample chance to participate.
I really like this . . . I find the invasions to be fun most of the time, occasionally annoying. Turning it on for a couple of days a week is great! That way it doesn't become "old hat," but it gives me a chance to get the goodies on a few of my characters who haven't gotten to it yet.

Thanks, now this is what I call good customer service. Appreciate the heads up. *marks saturday rikit hunting in calendar....*
Thanks, NC Soft, for closing my favorite game ever without warning and with plenty of life still left in it, and thus relieving me of the burden of EVER wanting to buy, try or even hear about another game from your company. Will my decision make a dent, or persuade them in anyway, shape or form? Nope, obviously not. Don't care. NC Soft is dead to me. ~ PsyFox

Here here!
(Where? Where?? Oh, there...)
Seriously, I too welcome our returning Rikti invaders, and I also applaud the way the schedule's been broken up here and there. Nice job, Devs.
Thanks, 'House!

This is gonna sound like a stupid question, but is it a 24 hour CONSTANT invasion of all areas? or just the same Rolling invasions that got us before (Please say Constant! PLEASE that would rock so hardcore! Maybe with some intermediary events, like having the emergency transporter shuting down, so healers would have to go around the city rezing people, at the risk of their own lives PLEASE!!)
I am happy it comeing back can u make it not as laggy

It's the same event that was running before at the launch of Issue 10: Invasion.
