One small addendum:
- Social Exile: You do the Westin Phipps arc, no-one from either side wants to talk to you again. Ever.
[/ QUOTE ]
Only if Westin Phipps then grants you endless arcs of his diabolically evil schemes. I'd do it. I don't like people anyway.

- How people react to you is based on a "Light Side/Dark Side" meter, and uses the new branching dialogue system. Do good deeds, you get access to more Hero contacts. Do bad things, you lose access to them but gain more Villainous contacts (and the PPD start shooting at you). Also your adoring public react with shock and confusion at your switch to evil/good. Some arcs should require both to complete.

Ladies?
i13 will include legions of vehicle mounted giant monsters that gives huge XP awards and a rare recipe when defeated, double as mobile SG bases, and hunt down farmers.

Considering you prefer other women, if 300 managed to make even you like its sweaty manliness then the effect on others would be little more than devastating! I'm going to check to see if female working absenteeism went up the day it was released....

my fiance bought tickets for us to go and see this... at first I thought this was sweet of her as she's not usually into swords and sandals era films... now I'm not so sure

* The last 2 weeks or so the forums seem to have got angrier - I usually see this as a sign that it's been too long since the last update and we're due another.
[/ QUOTE ]
Or it could just be because it's so hot and humid at this time of year that everyone is irritable, particularly those of us who prefer to dodge the direct rays of the daystar even when it's not summer 
This is no kind of weather for vampires, nor forumites either! Bring back the rainclouds, I say!

Hmmm. "Essentially players will get to craft their own storylines complete with custom dialogue and characters that can include other non AI-controlled players in the universe." Emphasis mine.
What exactly does that mean? That you can use player characters as NPCs in missions? Or is it just badly phrased (which seems a likely explanation considering the rest of the article.)
OK, this is sounding sort of how I expected the mission designer would work.

While your adversaries will always need to be a set number of baddies from the standard stable of foes, what they're doing, what you do to stop them, who you work with and the impact that has on the world around you is entirely up to your design.

Couple that with GR's clue about "offline", and I think there's a good chance that it'll be pretty well full featured AND runs offline from the main game.

I really hope that it's soon. I'm desperate to find out what the content is because to be honets, i12 was a bit of a let down for me, besides the VEAT's

No sorry thats just me, I've had a little accident at the prospect of such a feature fully realised in Issue 13.

I'm wondering about this. How will they get them from an offline status to an online one? Will the game continually need patching as new player missions are added or will they save them all up and patch after each maintenance window?

Well, I can't speak for how NC will design it, BUT if *I* were designing it, I would do it thusly.
1. The entire mission designer would run independently of the game in an offline state. It would have access to the game PIGG files, so all resources are available to the user.
2. It would have an offline testing facility, where you use a temporary character generated at the needed level.
3. The mission creator would have a validate function, to make sure there are no game breaking problems with the mission. A complete play through in offline mode would be part of this process.
4. Once validated, you would select the "Upload to game servers" option, which does exactly that.
5. Once uploaded, the mission becomes available on a mission selector, somewhat like the one in Ouroboros. Selecting a mission downloads it to the players, much like bases are currently downloaded.
6. The mission creator would have the facility to disable missions he's uploaded, in case of bugs, and later upload updated versions.

I'd avoid jumping to conclusions... especially ones taking a cryptic hint into a context it was never intended for .

Can you give us an NCSoft hint then instead?

My idea would be something like:
I13: Ragnarok
The promised Coming Storm is here, and the fate of not merely civilisation but the Earth - all the Earths - hangs in the balance. Hero, villain, humans and aliens must band together to fight a new, seemingly unstoppable threat...
- Shivan invasions... and worse things.
- Unified world: players can roll any class of toon and start either in Paragon or the Rogue Isles, but can travel freely between the two.
- How people react to you is based on a "Light Side/Dark Side" meter, and uses the new branching dialogue system. Do good deeds, you get access to more Hero contacts. Do bad things, you lose access to them but gain more Villainous contacts (and the PPD start shooting at you). Also your adoring public react with shock and confusion at your switch to evil/good.
