Can you change your power color when your already in the game or no???


Power is unless without the will to use it,
But will in nothing unless you believe in yourself.
And that is ture power!

Of course. There would be no point if you could only change colors, but not play the game.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan.

Power colors cannot be changed yet. Until "Going Rogue" goes live -- which is not expected until several months after Issue 16, which itself is still several months away -- we will not know for sure.

Your question is a good one, but I do not believe we have that information yet.

My own guess would be that we can change power colors any time we change costume colors, but that is only a guess.

This feature is part of Issue 16, not Going Rogue, so we'll know much earlier than that.

We don't know yet. I don't see any reason why not, but that wasn't clarified in the I16 announcement, so to say yes at this point would be speculation. We'll know more then I16 goes into Beta.

We don't know, however, I would expect to be able to change colors for my powersets the same way I can change costumes.

They haven't explicitly said either way, so if you need an immediate answer, PM a Dev or Community Rep.

Issue 16 overview

And, just curious, you know it will be several months before issue 16 goes live how?

....just wondering

i16 will probably got live in October :3

Ok, my bad, I said Going Rogue but as pointed out, this is an Issue 16 feature. I wasn't thinking carefully and picked the wrong one of the two expansions we're expecting.

And I expect it to be several months before issue 16 goes live because issue 15 just came out, Super Booster III just moved from test to live, so we still have to wait to see when I16 hits test and then again until it moves from test to live. My estimate for that process? "Several" (3-4) months. But I admit it is just an estimate.

Mainly past history and experience; issue 15 just went live a short time ago and we've just now started getting any info at all on issue 16. If things run true to past experience I'd expect at least a month of beta testing on the Test Server prior to it going live and possibly considerably more.

My experience is that we could be looking at several months of internal development after they announce a teaser about an upcoming issue and at least a month of beta testing on Test. Personally I'd be somewhat surprised to see it go live any earlier than October and wouldn't be surprised if it took until mid-December.

That sounds like a fair estimate. My only quibble is with using the word "several" to mean 3-4. When I hear several, I think of 6 months or more, but it is a vague word (which is appropriate in this case of speculating when I16 will release ).

Sounds reasonable. The stated target is 3 issues per year. We had Issue 14 (which was a big one) in April. Issue 15 (a small one) was in June. Issue 16 seems not too big in terms of 'content', but in terms of 'stuff people have wanted' (as well as engine changes) it's absolutely huge. Still, I don't think they'll need to December. I think it will be closer to October.

Come to think of it they probably will try and have it out in October; Marketing probably wants the Rogue expansion box out in time for Christmas.

October seems to be a reasonable guess and would probably be a decent goal as a CertainOther game goes live in September, October would be a good time to attract players that have left to check out a CertainOther game.

It would be cool if you could set powers to use Supergroup colours.

That way you could change your colours on the fly if you're in a personal SG.
