Ok, here's a thought... instead of comming up with new inspiring (yet often buggie) content. How about we address an OLD problem never resolved...

Ok, here's a thought... instead of assuming that one is produced at the expense of the other, you let the Devs do what they're doing already, which includes fixing the CoP.
Never surrender! Never give up!
Help keep Paragon City alive with the unofficial City of Heroes Tabletop Role Playing Game!
I always felt the mission computer could be reimagined and used for a variety of thing. Make it be able to create "Arena" battles that the SG can use as a Danger Room.

Star Centurion- Peacebringer
War Forger- Blaster EB/Devices
Dedjinn- Stalker CL/DA
Cycnus- Mastermind Mercs/Traps
Sure, I'm all for either getting CoP fixed, or having them remove it all together and having a different way to do it.
And I'd love it if AE were in the SG base ... I'm still waiting for them to do that with WentWorths though.

. . . And three years later . . .
Seriously, 3 years with no resolution is a bit unorthadoxed don't you think? Sounds to me, IanTheM1, like the Devs have completely put it on the back burner (or have no real intention on repairing it.) You also said "let the Devs do what they're doing already..." you'd think after ALL the years... the Birth of Cimerora... these two new TF's comming in i15... all this new wonderful content... and still no word on the CoP? C'mon man, get serious. When you have something constructive to contribute, then talk to me.
Otherwise, you're just bashing a good alternative...

No it wasn't bashing a good idea. It was letting you know that they are already working on the CoP. The first step was the adjustments to pvp. Step two is working the kinks out of base raids. Once they are satisfied with those things they will work on the CoP.
They have announced this on the forums. Searching should find the news you are looking for.
The reason they have not gotten the CoP working sooner was because they still have to put out regular updates. Until recently they did not have enough people to do both.
Truth is they need to hop on it they have been doing so much to break the game.How long will it be now lol.Either way all of you are right, they need to think on fixing stuff rather than jamming more sardines in the can!! Yah know!! That sg computer for a danger room and actually using it hero side would be nice regardless.They could even add a room called a combat room for the bases to make it a room that can be used as an arena map, only by accessing it from YOUR base only, also one per base regardless of plot size.
The WW could be as easy as a stock ticker!! =D
Ok, here's a thought... instead of comming up with new inspiring (yet often buggie) content. How about we address an OLD problem never resolved... Remember that pesky Mission that's unable to be selected by the SGbase Mission Computer... The Cathedral of Pain? Remember how it awared a base item of power. If you can, then that's amazing, hats off... but for almost 3+ years this mission has been closed due to some bugs.
SO for 3 years, the mission computer & sg mission teleporter have been redundent. This also restricts the "base raid" option only to those who have the "item of power". So what's the deal. Why can't we come to a solution to allow supergroups the ability to use these items...
Thankfully, I've come up with some possible ideas...
First, instead of having the Item of power come from a mission, have it be something more like a SG Accolade. If the Supergroup earns a certian # of supergroup badges, they are awared with the Item of Power to add to their base. Enabling the Mission computer & teleporter to be used...
Here's another potential one, how about you link the wonderful new AE features to a Supergroups Mission computer, perhaps make it useful again?
Well? What do you think? I'm sure they could each be refined, but I feel they are all great possible resolutions to these dusty base pieces... Granted, if they've already implemented alternate ways to get an Item of Power, I'd love to know...
------------------------
Something else I'd like to see in base options would be the ability to add the Arena Booths for supergroups to use in their base, much like they did with the Invention table workshops.
