HOLY SHIGOJEZAWHATHA SLO OGASNARGO'THA! 
HUMAN WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE!!!
... Oh gott I'm so happy I could pass out
All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.
But memories remain, And that is beautiful.
I'm not happy about the new IO sets because I think we have enough of them as is.
But everything else looks awesome!
Hey Backalley thanks for answering the mastermind questions, if its not too much trouble could you tell us if we get Cleavers like the Morts carry as a customizeable weapon?

Does it include the Tutorials so heros can go back for isolator and villains for jailbird?

OK how about customizing my henchmen colors if I am a Mastermind.
Its states "Current power sets that benefit from this upgrade Include Assault Rifle, Mercenaries/Assault Rifle, Bow, Broadsword, Claws, Villain Claws, Dual Blades (see below), Katana, Ninja Blade, Mace, Robotics/Pulse Rifle, and Thugs/Dual Pistols"
[/ QUOTE ]
alright i read that main page so all my questions thus far have been answered, but when it says includes, does this mean there are more?
[/ QUOTE ]
More likely to mean "more in the future"

Speaking as someone with a radiation corr a kinetic corr and a bot/poison MM I'm glad these new sets are coming. the debuff powers need some IO lovin' !

The highlight of the new IO sets are to the powers that do not have any eligible sets.
Not enough when some power sets are left out.

I'm assuming from what they've said that a lot of the weapons will involve getting badges to unlock.
So defeat family bosses for a tommy gun, defeat red caps for a red cap dagger.... defeat vanguard for their awesome weapons....

THANK YOU DEVS! Power customization! I never thought this would come, but apparently you Devs do listen to the masses. Hoefully we get more and more ways to customize our characters in the future.....this is a great start! Thanks again!
..W......O......W.....!.....!.....!
Wow.
Something to actually get excited about. I bet we'll surely see more mace tankers! (Especially if /mace got a 'lil tweak-lovin *hinthint*) I was sort of thinking I'd just let my interest in the game gradually trickle out (haven't been able to play in months due to new baby, and I canceled one of my accounts last month)...but alas, now I HAVE to find time.
Sounds like they are getting lots of re-use out of existing content (flashback) and using that allow budgeting more time for actual programming. Or somejunk. Anyway, can't wait for the beta .

When I saw Paragon Times, I was really hoping for hero/villain crossovers. Looks like that didn't happen. 
Still, weapon customization is great. I might actually make an AR now. And having different-styled claws for left and right hand would be nice - especially if there is something punch-daggerish available.
I put my pre-beta Weapons Customization Guide to this thread.
Easier to update it there.

Hmmm that is a possibility........
but as long as the topic has been approached.....what NEW badges are in Ish 11 ?
Wow!
Issue 11 looks amazing.
I'm even excited about dual blades now!
Okay I am excited! Flashback is the best news EVAR. Weapon Customization, excellent! New powers, groovy. More loot, meh, dont care. But overall this is excellent and I am stoked to see it in action!

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'm at a loss for words, i can dust off my MM finally

will the weapon customization effect ninja katanas or bows?

I don't know (yet - it'll take a while to catch up on a monster thread like this) if this has been asked yet, but:
[*] Crossbows - yes or no?
[*] If crossbows are in, what about pistol-crossbows? (They really do exist, mind) ...?
Does any1 know when this issue will be out?
It Looks AWESOME!
I cant wait to customize!

Try? There is no try. Do or do not.
Kinda boring actually...
The flashbacks are nice, but i was hoping for more time travelling, like a co-op tf to the begining of it all (when States and Recluse drank from the well).
The weapon customization is nice, but i wishe they would've just given us full power customization, even with all the work it takes to do it.
And finally, i don't like the extra rare recipes. I mean, i worked my butt off to get enough money to buy the "regular" rare recipes for my toons, and now what? It was for nothing? Cos they are no longer the best you could get for your toon, so what's the point in spending all my money on it?

fine by me. as long as it's not "whack 50,000" to unlock.
i have to say that issues 9-11 look to be just, incredibly well done. as in, lots of cool things to make COx live up to all that potential~!!
now, i'm curious. all the stuff we've been reading (and i could've missed it in this thread, i'm going re-read in a bit) about like recluse+manticore... the Menders of Ouroboros system -- will this be hero+villain? i.e. will heroes be able to help recluse take-over the rogue isles? will heroes instead be able to attempt to stop him? same with rescuing the city from COT's mega-demon -- will villains be able to help defeat cot, or help them succeed?
i'm guessing these will be missions and/or TF/SFs and not areas like recluse's victory? or will they?
this issue already sounds really really really great.
halloween fun coming up soon, followed (shortly?) by a new issue?
Political correctness is a stench in the nose of God. Yes, your God(s) also.
getting to team up with recluse while he tries to take over arachnos will be awesome...this is the gist i got anyways if its not true...also if that one is true will red widow be involved?...in GW's patron arc it mentioned....well lets just say for all those noobs out there that it mentioned her and recluse's grab to power
Weapon Costumization is just one step closer to becoming Power Costumization where all power graphics can be changed via Tailor shop.
I'm upset this wasn't the system to let player switch sides. I'm sad
By Ultra Rare Invention set I hope they mean Mez Magnitude increase.
If it ain't broke set it on fire, then say it was a fault in the design.
