I was actually joking in game yesterday about how when you sign up to become a superhero you envision epic sky battles, space fights and travel to exotic dimensions... instead I spen way more time in caverns, caves and sewers than even fecal matter should have to.
Exactly, while I love most of the zones that exist I feel limited sometimes. Even when you go to other dimensions your still in Paragon or the Isles mostly. What about a trip to Egypt or Peru to explore ruins and pyramids? We could even start there.
It's just kind of wasteful to make a cool Sci-Fi hero/villain and be confined to one city/place for the most part. IMO of course.

MOM! I WANT MY MOONBASE!!!!
While we already *do* have off-world content, I'd be totally fine with the devs creating some one-shot stuff, like the aforementioned Egyptian-themed encounter. Or some singular historical events added to Ouroboros, like a giant Atlas fighting off jetpack-using 5th Column in Independence Port or Brass Monday.
Hell, just some custom maps and/or enemy groups not used elsewhere added to the MA would also work!

I have had an awesome space-themed MA story arc since its creation, but it is far too hard to find a map that is "spacey" enough. So I would hope the creation of this would lead to space themed maps added there. Also, I completely agree that we need an underwater zone. Future competitors will have one, and they are always a big part of any superhero universe.
I will be checking out this moonbase topic as soon as I hit "Submit." That needs to happen.

I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
Even missions in a giant spaceship where you could see stars going by thru the windows would be a nice Tileset to add.

Ouroboros isn't off-world, it's physically located somewhere on the same planet as Paragon City.
Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Hmm. I was under the impression that Oroborous existed outside of normal time and space.

Nope just shifted out of time, still the same location. With all the cosmic and underwater characters, it really is time to introduce both types of zones.

OK while reading the idea someone had about meteors decimating Kings Row I had a thought. Wouldn't it be cool if there was a space program (think NASA) that would recruit heroes for missions off world. Like trips to the Moon or Mars or a space station or even further. Then I was also thinking this game doesn't explore the oceans either. Imagine going to an Atlantis like civilization and interacting down there. For both these ideas maybe your character would get a temporary power apparatus to breathe in space or underwater. I think this idea has some merit and it wouldn't be that hard to implement. I wonder has this been discussed before and what the chances are for it to happen in the near future... Your thoughts?
