Duel Pistols?

Tier 1 - Take Umbrage
Tier 2 - Demand Satisfaction
Tier 3 - Nominate Second
Tier 4 - Choose Place of Honour
Tier 5 - Load Pistols
Tier 6 - Offer Choice of Weapon to Opponent
Tier 7 - Take 10 Paces
Tier 8 - Turn
Tier 9 - Fire.

Hmm, I think that Waiting until level 32/38 for a damage dealing power could be a bit of a strain. Probably a good job they're not due in I14, obviously need far more work.

(OK, it's far too damn late. I'm going to bed.)

And for the likely follow up question of 'why not just tell us now?', it's because things change, plans change. In the past the devs have made the mistake of giving too many details out too far ahead of time, and when they don't go EXACTLY as first mentioned (even if there's huge disclaimers) people go nuts. Hell, there's a lot of people that still insist that Dual Pistols were promised a while ago (when the context was quite differently, merely a set a Dev said they personally wished was in the game)./quote]


Exactly, a wonderful example of this was when they said what was coming out in I13 (ie: The Mission Architect) which we are getting in 14. As of right now the only thing in I14 is the Mission Architect. We may get some more toys and bug-fixes that we asked for with the last update or two, but that's all that's been said thus far.

And I still want my Dual Pistols ;p

He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I hope they stop making set's balanced around io's and rework energy aura since they failed.

No set is balanced around IOs, they have to keep making IOs to balance around the sets.

That's no suprise, since issue 14 is really issue 13.5, it will only contain only the MA, plus any other minor features they happen to have done in the time frame.

BABs post in no way implies that there will be any powerset stuff in issue 14.


I really should do something about this signature.

Added to which Posi is on record saying that the Mission Architect is sufficient to stand alone. So we'll get frillies and I15 which will be following will be bringing more goodness

[/ QUOTE ]and you didn't think the mission making was not going to be a big thing and not take up all of i14??? i though that was the reason for i13 & i14 to be spilt????

At a rough guess, they'll try quite hard to get a few extra things in there. Probably nothing major, but some. After all the shouting following the 'is strong enough to stand on its own' remark, they probably want a few bits and bobs in there for the people who will scream the MA isn't for them (and be singing its praises a month later ).

My guess is it'll be MA, some fluff for padding and something a little more substantial but not major, to say "it's not just the MA"

MA maybe all there is to i14, with some PvP changes and possibly the Valkyrie booster pack will come out at the same time for a "look over here" type thing. For some of the team not working on MA the time frame may allow a head start on i15/fixing current bugs. I dare say though a little more powerset proliferation albeit basic could possibly be done.

If i remember correctly there are 2 issue teams (or at least there was) so i15 is probably already well underway

I15 has probably been under way for a couple of months. Yep.

Work on I15 would have started shortly after the I12 release as it was originally supposed to be I14.

The team who were working on the MA in I13 simply have had a few more months to work on it and some of the finished work from the original I14 will have been pushed to the new I14 to flesh it out.
