Omega Team's Time Capsule

Posted

"But before Hero 1 and Omega Team left this world, they put together a time capsule. They knew they wouldn't be coming back. It's just a few things: letters to their children, old high school photos, things to help people remember who they were. The city hasn't opened it yet because, well, people don't like to admit that Omega Team is never going to make it back here. The plan is to open it on the seventh anniversary of the heroes' sacrifice."
-- Justin Greene (from Cape Mission, CoH)

Seventh anniversary according to game timeline (not real time), means seven years after the Rikti War ended on 27th November 2002. This means that the Time Capsule should be opened on 27th November 2009.

So, is anything planned? Some sort of special game event?

Be better if we get the chance to go and take them back.

It would be a bit lame if it wasn't opened, given that it's written into game lore.

However, we're seeing more and more examples of game lore being ignored - so I wouldn't be surprised if this gets totally overlooked.

I think it would be great to have an event ( would have to run several over a weekend at least ) for this, perhaps a badge for attending the opening ceremony?

War Memorial
The sacrifice of Hero 1 and the Omega Team still hangs in the minds of those that survived the Rikti War.

Perhaps use an instance of the Atlas Park fashion parade from the Ouroboros arc or something and re-populate it with an event ceremony setup?

Owners of the above badge could also get an accolade giving +dam for 30 seconds or something along the lines of an enrage power?

Defence of the Realm
Activating this power gives a short damage buff to yourself and those around you, the sacrafice of those that fell in the Rikti War, will never be forgotton!

Hope so - then the typo in the capsule info wouldn't keep bugging me.

Not a biggy but, iirc, it was only the best part of 3 years ago that I first /bug'd it.

I'd love an official memorial event. I'd stand amongst the masses in Atlas Park and /em salute with everyone )

...or you could all just ignore the Omega Team thing and come and help me celebrate my birthday on that day instead.

I promise there'll be lots of cake.
