Would you believe closed beta testing and threatening with NDA is marketing as well?

Distract us with the powers info and we will be discussing it and making and remaking builds until we actually forget I 12 is supposed to come out!

Just a head's up for everyone, we're going to be buckling down to get Issue 12 done...so you may see a lull in redname activity on the forums for a bit. Might not get as many immediate responses to PMs...mailboxes will probably fill up...posts demanding immediate answers will undoubtedly go unanswered. We're not ignoring you guys, we just have a bajillion little issues to tie up and we really need to focus on that right now.

On the plus side, marketting on Issue 12 is ramping up..so you should see more official announcements, dev diaries, stuff of that nature very soon.

We trust you, BaB!

Okay, well most of us do!

You're awesome, BaB.... you're no Manticore... but you're still ok in my book.

They are a carrot to dangle in front of us to make us want i12.

Thus, marketing.

[/ QUOTE ]Of course, it's been like this since issue 1, but it's nice to get a heads up from the devs. And I guess some of our less seasoned posters may not know about the pre-issue dev lull.

Meanwhile, the world's seals, left alone by the busy devs, are able to multiply in record numbers. The massive seal population becomes emboldened, and starts encroaching on cities across the globe with newfound confidence. Soon seals take over the planet and become the dominant life-form, eclipsing mankind. Humanity becomes extinct, and a rain of seals is visited upon the earth the likes of which has not been seen since the early 1800s.

I recall learning about the Great Seal Invasion of 1804 when I was in 5th Grade U.S. History class.

I had nightmares for weeks!

All understandable, we'll muddle through as best we can in the interim.

Now get back to work! *cracks whip*

BaB,

Just tell us which set Controllers will be getting for a secondary, and we'll let it slide.

I bet the devs are just taking two days off for March Madness.

This whole i12 thing is a cover.

Maybe it's just me... but when I saw this subject... I just got a modified version of "Holding out for a hero" running through my head that just won't go away.....

"Where have all the rednames gone
And where are all the devs."

And it just kinda goes on from there....

Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.

Like we have a choice if we want it or not?

Dev diaries should be released yearly because the makers of a game are interested in letting their enthusiast fan base in on the development process. not some jaded marketing tactic.

And the devs should develop the game because they love us just that much, and not because its their jobs or anything.

Plus, releasing designer accounts a year after the actual development isn't a dev diary, its practically dev archeology.
