They would NOT be handled by the same people.

Oh yeah they would. Hue shifting involves both a lot of artwork...work (art work?) and some engine work on top of that.
Why not do both at once? 'cause it'd take a helluva lot of extra work.

They're specifically hiring more people to handle the graphical update.

Have I missed this somewhere? Because up til now we have been discussing a hypothetical graphics update and the results it may or may not bring. I can't recall seeing anything like that mentioned in the GR press release. Correct me if I'm wrong.

We've heard rumors of a graphical update running around for years. Are there any plans to update the graphics in future issues?
We've hired some "Type-R" programmers (inside joke) to investigate and deliver this very thing. Stay tuned for details.

Also, for my tanks, toning down the animations on Invulnerability would be really nice. In all honesty, as a personal preference, glowy auras don't impress me much, especially on an Invulnerabe tank. I'd like to just have them be as plain-Jane as possible. Instead, I get some guy running around who's as glowy as possible. I much prefer the Willpower animations. Which, amazingly, is why I tend to use that set exclusively these days. A shame really, since Invulnerability isn't a bad set.

Hmmm ? They toned down the graphics on Invulnerability dramatically quite some time ago. I ended up deleting all of mine because I liked the old effects, and playing the dull new versions depressed me. If we can make them shiny again I'd make some new ones.

Customization, you say?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yep, this debate is over.
I'm only ladylike when compared to my sister.
I wasnt sebating as much asking why people wanted this over things like graphics updates.
I want pink bubbles. But I personally would rather have a graphical update that increases the awesome in new ways.
Power customization is coming in Going Rogue, although it hasn't been officially announced (as no other specifics will be announced for some time yet). At least its coming though. Even more reason to be excited about COH's future.
