Hmmm....so.....
Does that mean we can theoretically create our own PVP maps too???
AND...
Who dares fight 200 master illusionists in "The Room of Death" oooo.
I'm seriously impressed and pleased with all this new info and the tightness of the dev crew.
THANK YOU FOR FOUR YEARS, Posi and everyone. Here's to four more!
((oddly enough, I was working up a system for a pitch to a licence holder for such a thing for a game... wow. great minds har har!))
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!

Sorry, didn't read through the thread. Still...pathetic when you look at it in those terms

Actually, taking a simple assumption, it only comes down to about 500 hours/account.

I'm not prone to hyperbole or rash decisions, I swear...
But I've just cancelled my LoTRO, Tabula Rasa and Pirates of The Burning Sea accounts. To be able to weave custom storylines into the official canon, however ancillary, is the finest development in this game. Ever. THANK YOU!!
I'm sure the mission customizer will have limitations, so those fantasizing about lvl 53 Hellions probably won't get them. I'm sure they will be limited to the level that the particular villain group can be at now.
I seriously started crying with joy. No joke.
Happy 4th Anniversary, CoH.
Never surrender! Never give up!

Similar in concept to our character creator, it allows you, the players, to create missions and story arcs for your characters and others to participate in. Youll be able to pick the map, villain group, and objectives, as well as write the dialog and any clues needed for the missions. When you are satisfied with it, you can upload it and have other players across all servers play it and rate it.

Wow, I know a few Sg that will get alot out of that. I hope they can be linked up to the mission computer.

Hmmmm the burning question now is.... Since we use to costume creator to create storylines, missions, does that mean we can design our own Arch Nemisis and put him/her in the missions?

I cant tell you how excited I am for our games future, and although we have some major announcements yet to be made, one of the things I can talk about is a feature that we are planning. Similar in concept to our character creator, it allows you, the players, to create missions and story arcs for your characters and others to participate in. Youll be able to pick the map, villain group, and objectives, as well as write the dialog and any clues needed for the missions. When you are satisfied with it, you can upload it and have other players across all servers play it and rate it. Fame will come to the players whose stories rate the best overall. It is features like these that we never dreamed of including when we first shipped, but are excited to be able to offer players very soon.

Mind -> Blown
Good lord but I hope the mission creator doesn't go the way of the skills system...I'd cry, scream, pull my hair out...
I'm already imagining creating the ultimate bank robbery...will we be able to have access to destructible environment items, i.e. objects that can be used both as weapons against the enemies in the mission and as things to break for fun, I wonder. Heck, now I want to create a 'heroic mayhem mission', let heroes invade a pseudo-Rogue Isles setup and lay waste to the countryside. Curtail Lord Recluse's operations by seizing Arachnos' payroll funds. 'Course, you'll have to turn the monies over to Longblow afterward, but it still means bank vaults to crack open

Agreed, I think this is Posi and Co's way of saying "Game on".

Best news ever!
Holy Cow this is big. Tons of new content, the real problem will be deciding which to try as I expect a lot of it.
One really nice thing is that players can create some missions that let them get annoyingly hard to get badges (Villain mission with lots of Troll bosses for example). Of course I don't think I want to see a mission full of Illusionists lol.
These people are crazy good.

You can't please everyone, so lets concentrate on me.
If I could test custom missions with my own character, I'd probably spend the rest of my days playing my storm defender in a mission entitled One Room Full Of Wizards Precariously Perched High Above The Lava.

I know. I'm waiting for the arc that ends like "You saeved the world and half bought piece to the whole wide universe."
Honestly I'm hoping that there are limitations too this to prevent it from going rated M and annihlating the game canon (the alternate time lines was a good idea).
But w00t! 4 years! Arch Nemesises plz!
How about this? So awesome! Thanks a lot, devs!
