So, if Cimerora is just another hero zone designed to confront the enemy of time...

How are villains going to experience the culmination of the Ouroboros arc? Or are those letters just a moment of "oops, I'm terribly sorry, I thought you were a hero.. GTFO of my time zone"?

[/ QUOTE ]

Where did it say that Cimerora is only a hero zone?

The "Join the Midnight Squad" section sound hero only, but Cimorera is pretty clearly for both sides.

Level 50 is a journey, not a destination.

No, it's hero/villain.

There is a familiar threat in an ancient land and the Midnighters need the help of both Heroes and Villains to stop it. Players step foot upon the ancient land of the Roman Cimeroran Peninsula..

So that's actually a pile more 35-50 content for Villains.

The ONE thing that is sorely missing from the features list!


MORE SLOTS?????

Please?
PLEASE????

I don't have enough slots to make all the new alts I'm gonna wanna make with all the new powersets and stuff!!!!! *cry*



Oh wait a minute... I get it. You want me to get a 2nd account! Sneeeeeeeeeeeky!

The Midnighters hold a secret that could bring the alien assault to an end, but without the help of the Heroes of Paragon City™ it will remain Lost forever.

[/ QUOTE ]

That is, unless we sneak into the Midnighter's Club to use their coveted Ouroboros Crystal in order to save the day.

yeah, I'm a villain. Savin' the day and infiltratin' arachnos.

Doom.

Yep.

This is really doom.

I hate to beg, but ... Can we please get 2 more character slots per server?

The addition of Villain Epic Archetypes and Powerset Proliferation is definitely going to increase my alt count.

My apologies, in my rage, I must've missed it.

It's still just more hero content shovelled onto villains.

Yeah, so I'm kinda Angry about this issue. Colour me disappointed.

Doom.

Yep.

This is really doom.

I just had a geekasm!

Best thing I've read: Powerset Prolification.

Axe Brutes.

Does this mean they figured out the patron powers issue?

Blazara Aura LVL 50 Fire/Psi Dom (with 125% recharge)
Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!

That's understandable. The lack of independent (from heroes and Arachnos) content that is truly villainous is still disappointing.

I don't believe that takes away from the merits of what they are adding though. It's just not the toy that has been asked for.

I really really hope I'm reading the hidden lines about the villain epic, and it's not all about being a happy loyal Arachnos goon. The gameplay sounds potentially AWESOME, I just hope the RP side of it isn't a railroad.

Rome zone is like...I'm not disappointed or excited, mostly because it seems a little out of the blue. XD

Sexy Jay is a winner for all the new costume bits.

I think it's cute and hilarious that there's STORYLINE for ATs getting some of their "missing" hero/villain counterpart powersets.

QoL updates = HAPPY VANGELUS, -especially- EIGHT freaking power trays, and the inspiration conversions.

I just hope the devs remember that currently, we have one slot per server for each existing ArcheType. Because I'd like to see that maintained. (HINT HINT :O)

I have one serious complaint about this announcement.

I'm probably not going to make it into closed beta.

Yep. That's about the only serious complaint I've got. (Yeah, there are other things I wish was in there, and I hope they'll make it into a future release, but the list of what you're doing sounds great.)

This makes sinse to me. Not that I wouldn't mind more slots, sinse making Virtue my new server.

But it makes sinse to have at least enough slots for 1 of every AT on a server.

5 + 5 + 2 + 2 = 14 slots.

Looks at I12 content...

Looks at available character slots...

Well, guess it's time to buy that third account.

[/ QUOTE ]

Heh, seems like a good reason for NCSoft to not supply more server slots. Get more players to pay an extra $15/mo.

Looks like it's time once again to decide which alt gets the death penalty.

But overall i12 feature list looks very good. A bit weary of Arachnos myself but for the VEAT there doesn't seem to be mention of a weakness ala void/quant for khel which in itself seems appealing.

And the new zone, does that mean an additional base beacon is included?

Anyway, it bears repeating...please add more server slots and a base porter with 4 attachments.

I can't migrate. Every time I go to other servers I feel like I"m in the twilight zone. Like... everything is the same, but it's all different!

I can't play on other servers. I'm too unnerved. And I'm being totally serious here. -every- time I go to another server. It's really bizzarre!

Then I go back to Virtue then I relax and go ahhh back home.

(But I am being totally serious about being unnerved on other servers! It is a really weird eerie feeling that comes over me)

Well the problem with having to get a new account -just- for more slots means you don't get veteran rewards on that new account (unless you've had it since the beginning).

I'd rather pay $15 extra a month to get say 7 more slots on ONE account and keep my veteran rewards.

Well, even in the comics, some villains have joined sides with heroes in the past for a common purpose.

What you might want instead, is a storyline element added in their to give your villain more reason to join with the hero in the first place.

Bows to the devs...man if this isn't a wish list of everything we wanted I don't know what is.

The co op zone is so sweet thank you, however isn't it redundant to the RWZ. Is it to late to adjust the level so as a hero and villain could co op longer.
