The City Scoop! ~ Discussion~ August 22, 2008

I liked the comic. Mostly because it's true, at least blue side. Have to wade through crap after crap after crap to get to an arc or badge mission.

Still wishing for blue side to get a facelift to match the smooth contact progression of red.

You mean the smooth contact progression where you need to do 15 generic missions from the newspaper every time you change zones?

ZOMG, front page! I feel special~! <3

Personally I'm hoping it's info that the mission creator will be in I13. I've already got a 24 mission arc planned with multiple AV's and a kick [censored] ending. The planning is done now I'm just writing the mission briefings and after that is the in game dialogue. God this [censored] takes a while. I can see why these issues take so long now lol

Not quite the case but you have a point. However, how different is it from blue side...really...different contact and different arc but you're still running through the exact same mish tile set/map. The look is the same. Blue side is just way more disorganized with way more pointless running around.

But what about that strange servey? Moon Bases maybe? Hmmm....Eh.. Looks.. interesting.

Relax, everybody. he's just having a custom playpen built for Bab's baby, Baby Bawler (Sonic/Spit Up blaster).It will be patterned after a hamster habitat and have tunnels running all through the house with a large play area in each room.

Hmmmm....anyway I can get that ordered for my neighbor?

Thanks! I'm reeaally hoping that the big reveal will be the mission designer - radio missions are OK on blue side, but being able to create your own missions means running your friends through a little slice of insanity of your own creation... mmmm can't wait !!!

Oh, and I wanted to mention that I've been re-reading Lovecraft again recently so the comics may begin to take on a cyclopean flavor for awhile - which works well, since I'm currently farmi... er, um... I mean Running Missions in Croatoa

Yes but as long as the tenants are of light build and relatively symmetry. Also given a spot of good weather I'm sure we'll be onto a winner.

So they're releasing a welding powerset on Tuesday?

I agree, It might be the City Vault thing, but I really do hope its I13.

"Loyalists: Our way is the only way."

That's got to be one of the strongest editions of the City Scoop ever. I even understood the Market Watch for once and I'm really a dunce usually when it comes to things involving math in anyway. Glad to have you guys back!

I do miss articles like the City Traveler or Go. Hunt. Get Badge. however.

Is it Tuesday yet?
