Looks..........so very awesome.

I read the Issue 16 overview, and yawned. Nothing listed there interests me, much like Issues 13 through 15. Power color customization? Meh. None of the new powerset proliferations interest me. Being able to spawn a map designed for an eight player team while soloing? Well, at least I won't get random tells asking me to fill anymore...

Nothing saids its your spot like an ourob. Portal dropped on the ground.
All of that looks awesome, but it would be great if they revamped a zone like Perez or Boomtown as well.
So far the decrease in the number of "Plz Fill" requests is all thats got me interested in i16. Thankfully there is still more details to come.... and hopefully its content related.

Oh, and why do Stalkers get broadswords? That weapon wasn't really meant to be silent. It would have made more sense to give it to brutes.
Yeah, the difficulty setting thing is the only part I like. Finally, Weatherman will be less obnoxious for redside (but still obnoxious).
Enhanced Difficulty Options will definitely change farming for a lot of people.
I agree on the Broadswords, Meph, that looked like an error when I read it.

As opposed to silent Thunder Strikes?
One one level, I like the idea of power color customization. I suspect we'll see some peope doing some very cool stuff with the power colors, and I look forward to some interesting new visuals.
On another level- letting people customize individual powers (as opposed to setting colors for the set) seems like a recipe for trouble- or at least some godawful ugly color combinations just to be obnoxious. Think, for examples, of all the visual effects a fire controller can drop at once- and what it will look like if every power is a different color of the rainbow. My eyes already hurt.

I still think Scrappers shoulda got Ice.
All I have to say is RADIATION BLASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Apart from silence, Broadswords are similar to the axe or the mace in how they handle; they are heavy, clumsy weapons that require two hands to use.
Longswords would make better sense for a Stalker.
Nothing about it really interests me that much. More zones, more content and more new powersets would, but such is life.
This part peeked my interests though [ QUOTE ]
They can choose to be regarded as a specific size team (even if they are soloing),
[/ QUOTE ] . Seems like this game likes to make features that make it easier for players to do the one thing they keep nerfing....pl'n. Why make moves to nerf pl maps such as the old Tv map on villain side, or the amount of xp fam gives if they then turn around and give easier ways for people to pl in another issue.
Personally I think its great because I like to test my ability on my toons and spawn maps of 8 for the fun of it, so yeah its great for me. However 90% of the people are not going to use it for that purpose, we know it, and so do they. So seems kind of weird to offer it based on what their stance has always appeared to be on pl's.

And maybe some content for the over-arching storyline as well?
Champion: Feride Edain, Level 50 Vigilante Blaster; Quicksilver Cure, Level 33 Controller; Silent Gemini, Level 44 Tanker; Aisa Moirai, Level 19 Villain Dominator
Virtue: Aurora's Blaze, Level 50 Peacebringer; Atrytone, Level 50 Tanker

Why would they put work putting all that in this Issue, when we know that all of the above is going into the Expansion?
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

If such a thing is true, then the current and loyal subscribers get a preview of an upcoming standard feature. That is not so bad.

Sounds like you've tapped into the brain of Fuzzy Yum Yum from Showtimers. I can see him wringing his hands in maniacal joy waiting to make people's monitors explode with a rainbow of obnoxious fruit flavors.
Yes. He really is that evil.
His is the brain that brought us Sister New Jersey.

Will it make up for the lack of awesome in issue 15?
I vote "Yes."
