Also....if we don't get some kind of new tidbit on issue 13 tomorrow, I can't be held responsible for my actions. 
Yes, there had better be info on I13 tomorrow, or tonight, we will dine in HELLLLLLINTHESHADE
wake me when the game gets remotely interesting again.
Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.
lolz PvP anymore, Market PvP for fun and profit
Oh just wait, there not much to say unless they are planning to put more in. Take your time I can wait. 
longer it take better it will be.... I hope.
If I win the lottery... I will buy EVERY forum goer their choice of a $1000 night at a strip club or a tricked out home console system with the best games... just to get you off the forums and show patience for real Issue 13 info.
But my luck... you'd spend the $1000 to upgrade your computers to go from 500 posts a day to 600.
We aren't even playing with the mission creator yet!
Patience!
Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.
But Joooooooooolt! I want my illicit partnerships nooooow!

My guess is some coder opened up the base building code, there was this high, piercing scream and they later found him huddled on the floor, repeating only the words "... the horror... the horror..."

ROFLMAS!!
[color=yellow]Posi, like so many others in this topic have said, take your time. I'd rather reletively few glitches go live then some of the bugs that have occurred previously. Heck I know some of us would even appriciate some info along the lines of:
"Hey all, we've made some progress, unfortunately not the progress we wanted, with the highlights we had posted for Issue 13. We are working on (insert Base Editer/ Mission Editor/ Shield Power Set here), but some unexpected glitches (coding/ graphics/ practicle application) have occured that have extended our timeline. But we do have progress on (insert Base Editer/ Mission Editor/ Shield Power Set here) that look promising. Meanwhile we have some most entertaining pictures of our dev team as they attempt to cope with this unforseen occurance (insert various links here)!" 
[b]Oh what type of legal stimulates would the dev team like & are there specific analgesics (SP?) like ASA, Ibuprofen, Naproxen Sodium, or Acetaminophen in 200 or 400 mg doeses that are required? I know I'm very intrigued by the barest hint you folks gave about the base loving in the announcement & moderately curious about the ME, though I'm holding that well in check untill I hear more Official Details so I don't build hopes to high.
Confusion is Lord & Chaos is my Best Friend!! Shall I introduce you??
MArc# 5232 Bastet's Unleashing *a Solo-able arc*
Gae'Atha- lvl 50 Emp/Ele/Psi Def
Sekmet's Fel Blood- lvl 50 Rad/Ther/GW Corr
So... Problem or opportunities, unexpected, whatever, happens. That's cool.
But really Positron, your marketing monkeys had nothing better to hold our attention than pushing you upstage wispering "- Say something!"
Do you guys even have someone in charge of marketing at all!?
Sorry if it sounds harsh, i know for one thing that Issue 13 will be filled with awesome, but this is truelly pathetic, not even a handful of screenies?
I remember when I10 was announced. It was maybe 2 months after I9 was released (Don't quote me on that) and it was completely unexpected. We were all still having fun with IOs and the crappy new Hamidon encounter. Yet, we had screenshots, tons of info, and everything was good.
PLEASE tell us about the new powersets. It will end a lot of the negativity.
This week's Update...
There is no Update.
We return you to your regularly scheduled stonewalling.
Thank you for your financial support of our non-disclosure.
Good Night, Gracie.
DOOOOOOOM!!!
.....That is all.
While it does suck that they announced i13 and didn't give more info than they did, I'm not all that upset. I'm enjoying the game. My altitis has flared up and I'm trying out different Brute sets. My newest one is Super Strength/Super Reflexes. Not being hit is just as good as being able to take a hit in my book . However, I can see that the trip through the low levels is going to be a painful one...
So while I would like more info on i13, I can wait. It's not like I'm going to die or anything... <.< >.> ^.^ v.v *suddenly becomes extremely cautious*
Do you suppose they are figuring out how to put the mission builder in a paid box expansion or something? Fill out issue 13 to a reasonable freebie level and get'r done, then move the giant monstrous soul-eating code project which clearly isn't going to be ready any time soon to where it can be a primary revenue generator - without putting a complete halt to the release of issues?
Lots of folks aren't interested in writting new missions (and have only limited interest in playing player generated content at reduced reward scales). I'm sure many of them would like to see the ussual spread of treats (powerset, costumes, maybe a zone) arrive sometime this year rather than wait for that rough beast to come slouching in. It's already clogging the information pipes.

Ok, we know.
We should have had said something more by now, about Issue 13. But
like all great architectural endeavors, Issue 13 is taking on a life of its own and were not quite ready to spill forth all the information.
So, just a quick note to say thanks for your patience, even though we know you may not really be patient. Trust us, its coming; were working on it and theres more great stuff coming (like you havent heard that before, but really, we mean it!)
Thanks!

Sarge: I'm sure you're all wondering why I've gathered you here today...
Grif: Yeah not really. I'm just happy not to be washing the Warthog... for once.
Church: What's the big scoop?
Sarge: That the campaign is going to be great, and, you're really, going, to, enjoy it. That, is all. Thank you for your time.
Church: Wait a second, that's it? That's the big announcement? That we're going to enjoy the new campaign?
Sarge: No, that you're really going to enjoy it. Oh, and the part about it being great.
Grif: So all we know is that there's gonna be some kind of an upcoming campaign...
Sarge: Possibly.
Grif: And that the Spartans will be involved in it...
Sarge: Those are your words.
Grif: But that we can't know anything...
Sarge: I can't say.
Grif: Including who we're fighting...
Sarge: I have no comment for the subject.
Grif: Or if we're even fighting in it...
Sarge: Sarge: I plead the fifth.
Grif: Or when it even starts...
Sarge: I refer you to my previous statement.
Grif: But that it's going to be great.
Sarge: I feel comfortable confirming that. Wait- Yes.
Grif: ...well I'm totally stoked!
Simmons: Kickass!
Simmons: Do you know what weapons we'll be using?
Sarge: Weapons. They're gonna be great!
Church: Okay awesome, what are they?
Sarge: That information is only given to people with the proper clearance.
Church: What's the proper clearance?
Sarge: Sorry, that information is only given on a need-to-know basis.
Church: Do I need to know?
Sarge: That's top secret!
Church: This sucks.
Dear NCsoft, if you go through with this shutdown you've guaranteed you'll not see another dime from me on any project you put out, ever.

"Impatients is the sign of a weak minded fool who will forever be doomed to repeat their mistakes for all eternity."
An very apt but true quote....
I love how alot of these people on this thread are like people who can't seam to wait for water to boil or for a pop tart to heat in a microwave.
In fact the silly part is that Poptarts have actual microwave instructions on them(each package has them clearly written on them)....I assume those instructions where made for the impatient people like on these forums.
I mean sheesh...if we look back at the posts...we can see clearly that the most impatient people whined about no information from a previous patch...whined it wasnt there yet instantaneously...whined when it showed up.
I think if anything....we need some more cheese on this thread.....there is enough whine on it.

Trust the computer. The computer knows all.
ok about this Dual Builds, i i have the EVAT and i make one build Crab and another Bane, will i need to get the cape every time i switch buds or what
another are you giving the Brutes and Tankers Broadswords or what, can't have shields with no sword.
Brutes have axes and maces. I don't think there is any proliferation in I13.

"Meh" Primaries? My Axe/Will brute is fairing far better than my Dark/Dark Brute.
Looks even better with the Rikti Axe I earned over the weekend.

Quick queston about Issue 13 and next few veteran awards.
As of Oct. 12, 2008 I hit my 54 month vet mark, however the 54month vet award was not selectable untill launch of the Holloween event a week later 10/18/08. This is not the first time veteran awards were not available upon achieving the required # of months. I have been able to select my award but fear that the next 57 month award will be same way seeing how its taken more than 3 months to get I13 out.
Don't get me wronge I'm glad I was able to finaly get the award.
Also, When I sent ingame feedback I recieved an Email from the support team which had my login information and was asking for the CC I used nearly 5 years ago to start my account, The date exactly when I started, The original name of account, and several other pieces of information ,that is to my knowlage, available in my Account Details on the NC-Soft site whom (unless I got lost) are soul owners of the game now.

from what I know NCNC should never be asking for a credit card number, ever.
best thing to do would be let them know about the email, and make sure everything is updated in your plaync account.
That is what concerned me, and yes I have replied that this information will not be provided, even if I still had the information.
As for the delay, I was not 100% clear on what happend.
I recieved the "Title" badge on 10/12/08, however was not able to select the reward, I in turn knew that the information they had about me and my account was accurate but they failed to install the full award untill the next update "Holloween Event".
Forgive the spelling, I never realy cared for it.
Slashman, I agree. I'm just trying to stay positive and focus on something we might actually get. I agree the missions need some upgrades in general, but that is just really unlikely. I'd love to see missions where you have to track a moving target on your map and destroy it, or when you find a bomb instead of just clicking it...have some sort of mini game simon says type thing required to disarm and complete the mish. There are all kinds of little things that could be added to make missions more interesting and less repeatative....but that's a whole nother' topic.
As far as the mission creator, give us reskinning ability of all NPCs at launch with a promise of upgrades in the future and I'll be sold.
