Issue 10 Impact on Roleplayers
hmm on the PD's front, yes it will be flooded with tools unfortunately.
But RPwise PD's has one major thing going for it against SG bases.
it's literally a Pocket Dimension and so safe from any form of attack. That and since Zero is supposedly an uber-mutant with insane powers...any Ritki walking through the door would just be instantly left to float outside the club stuck in a void until winter comes around and they can finally get back in through the ski chalet (they'd be playing rummy until then...so if you see aliens float past the window of D's playing cards, you'll know what happened).
Mind you the same theory could technically be applied to SG bases, since you have to teleport to get there, most, since they have no windows to the outside world, could be considered bunkers so they too warrant a safe-haven.
I do like the idea of Coalition chat being used as a sort of makeshift communications, especially if all of a sudden, the other end goes dead and all you could hear was static.....

"What do you mean "THEY cut the power"? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!"
Couldn't resist.
Seems like this event is bringing out the Aliens quotes in everyone
and that's a good thing

I'm just looking forward to roleplaying with heroes in the co-op zone something fierce. Since I mostly like doing missions "in character" as opposed to Pocket D, it should be interesting.
So screw hiding in Pocket D or the Base. I'm going to find a place to dig in and hold off some invaders. Nothing makes in-character friendships quite like battlefield experience.
-jared
The co-op zone will be interesting on my villains, considering how bad a reputation they have at GG
Hmm reasons for my villains to help the heroes.. For Spruk, it would be him realising that he will need help during the war, be it from the Gang or from other sources. For Lord Darvek, Arachnos see him as a weapon, so will someone anger him and throw him into the middle of the Rikti War Zone to do his thing.

All i can say until it goes live : "Kill anything thats got a huge bulging back-of-the-head...with a mallet"
You can use a mallet if you like, my chars will step over your corpse and use something with a bit more hitting power...

I hadn't thought it through, but I think I'm gonna have to come up with a way to screw heroes over if they do team up with Hatesman, it's just his style.
It takes Chaos to move the world to Action.
Which is exactly the sort of thing we should be expecting, and could make for some interesting scenes in RCW!

Heh. I just got the picture of FFM stepping over my cut-up corpse holding a BIGGER mallet...

Why would my characters team with 'the opposite side'...
So long as they're not known/infamous... there shouldn't be too much of a problem until certain characteristics one might associate with villains surface.
If it's some one known to my character as a ... disreputable person, then ... I don't know yet, depends on my character and the level of disrepute...
One character might stab the villain in the back while he's fighting Rikti, and then finish of the Rikti.
An other would ignore it.
Yet an other might fight along side the known villain in a 'no one deserves to fall to the Rikti' sort of way... followed by a 'I'll get you once this war is over'
Maybe try to arrest the villain too?
If my main gets in a possition where she fights side by side with her 'arch nemesis' (feeling isn't that mutual, I understand) ... I've no idea what'd happen...

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.

I think Pocket D may become a haven away from the fighting, somewhere that battle weary heroes and villians can actually rest, take stock and not have to worry about attack from the Rikti, before heading back into the war.

i'd like them to go one step further and fill it full of hospital beds and refugees

i thought this myself plus might become a millitery base or refuge zone
DJ Zero wouldn't allow Pocket D to be used as a military base. If it looked like he would be forced to do so he would simply close the portals to Paragon City/Rogue Isles.
As a refuge centre, it would have to ramain strictly neutral, so it could have Rikti refugees as well.
I really should do something about this signature.
Well i guess we are gonna hav to fight our way to freedom.
And maybe a spare 5 minutes to catch up with everyone!
There will most likely be a military staging area inside the new Rikti zone which could possibly become a roleplay centre.
What i want to know, is why arent all the PreCog Psi's going crazy right now?
Simply explainable...i think : Rikti Psychics have blocked it? (Hey,it COULD happen...)
There is also the magical barrier between dimensions, which could interfer with precognative abilities.
However, at least a few precogs have been getting something.
