This is awesome, but I wonder if they will have customization for non-weapon users?
I think I just cried in sheer delight.

BEST ISSUE EVER!!!!
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
Not surprised by the Flashback system, but still excited by it.
Very surprised and very excited about the Weapon Customization.
All the other stuff is awesome too!

I have a couple questions about the Flashback system, if a kindly dev would deign to respond. Can it be used multiple times on the same contact? Like, if I really enjoy beating the crap out of Mynx and tearing off her skin just as a pasttime, can I do Crimson Revenant over and over?
And secondly, can a 50 flashback to a 45-50 contact? Could my scrapper run through Maria Jenkins again, and maybe even again and again? How about the Patron arcs?

Sounds like you can do it over and over - the settings you can change (says Positron) include time, no inspirations, no temp, self-nerf, etc.

will the weapon customization effect ninja katanas or bows?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, and this was actually a tricky combination to figure out. A Thugs/Trick Arrow Mastermind for example will be able to customize both their left and right hand pistol as well as their bow.
i am extremely happy with this issue
i was getting very bored with CoX since i am a completist and it was impossible (nearly) for me to get badges i missed earlier...so good goin with the flashback system!
also, i hope that the weapon system will allow me to change my stone/stone tank's stone mallet to something more intersting...maybe a huge stone sword, stone axe, or stone halbird...thatd be awsome
...fingers crossed on the devs not messing it up...
Using the terms "Flashback" and "Weapon Customisation" to describe the new features is entirely misleading.
Neither accomplishes what the forum has been full of requests for since launch.
That being said, I still look forward to the "Time Travel" and "Weapon Selection" features being introduced in Issue 11.
another question. can say a ninja mastermind customize thier pets bows and katanas or a merc mm change thier mercs guns?
this probably sound like a stupid question, but what is the exact date i11 is coming out?

OMG! So that means my Robo/TA Mastermind can change his (if he used it) Blasters AND his Trick Arrow Bow?! VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!!!
oh my goodness this is better than the time peter tried synchronized swimming =)
but seriously this is flippin amazing...dang posi you realy came through....i know this had probably been asked before (a lot most likely), but will this work for things like a fire blaster as well?...also for the flashback will that let villains who were noobs at the time they made their favorit vil be able go back and get the jail bird badge?
Oh my LORD! POWER CUSTOMIZATION!!!!!! MOUTH FOAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well not all the way, but still.
BOOYA GRAMMA!!!!!!
Weapon Customization <------ and about damn time !
no complaints though . . . Ive avoided a BS/anything for just that reason... now ... oh yeah .... and the assualt rifle
wow I won't know where to begins when I11 drops......
GJ Devs
all i gotta say is awesome...now im just waiting on a scythe powerset, elemental weapons(ice axe, fire sword etc) and villain kheldians/nictuses(or nicti, w/e the plural is)...o and pinball machines for sgs...gonna have fun playing with my MMs dual pistols...

No one knows. Not even the Developers. Actually, don't bother asking. The Developers -NEVER- say when. We can only speculate.
P.S.
I think that Castle said it would go into Beta within a few weeks...a while ago. Don't quote me on that.
Anyone else notice that the main bad guy looks like Stan Lee?
I don't have a single melee toon above lvl 14 (aside from my Kheld). But weapon customization is really exciting. Who knows... maybe even spines will get a touchup.
The fact that they kept this secret as people were pleading for it... kudos.
Also, almost all of the outcry after dual blades were previewed was on their looks... now we can pick multiple looks! Wewt!
And it might be another lethal set, but a combo set? We don't have any other set like that in the game! Sweetness!

Maybe one days you guys will understand rare=low probabilty in an MMO is a bad idea. It just encourages farming and rewards time sink playing not accomplishment. It is not distinquishing mark of a veteran but luck + time spent.
if you want rare to be meaningful you limit the amount of copies. Then it is rare....and meaningful.

Man, you actually made those two statements together.
Limited numbers in a MMOG? Are you kidding me?
You complain that "ultra-rares" in a MMOG, where commerce is readily available, is a bad idea, then you suggest putting hard-coded caps on drops?
Players come and go, new alts get rolled. Hard-coded caps will make items simply fade away and disappear during the game's life. How can you suggest it as an alternative to low drops? That can lead to items simply disappearing (when new shinies get released, or the turnover of characters catches up with them), or stagnation if you make a loot item be the most desirable one forever and never dropping ever again.
