So once again. Given the increased number of staff @ Paragon and the abysmal decline of the content/issue quantity can presume that that they either a working on improving COH, or are in fact; as the Talos Island conspiracy theorist would have us believe, working on CoH 2

Most of us are working on Going Rogue and Power Customization
Plus, we are still recruiting more staff, and are looking for an animator with experience in non-humanoid rigs, which could be read as some sort of animal shape-shifing being planned for the future.

Good. I'm tired of having to be a humanoid when I make my character. Always 2 arms, 2 legs, and 1 head.
I applaud NCsoft if they're going to look for an animator and allow us to have different varieties of character model.

There are two costume artists now, and neither one of them deserve to be called that.
@Golden Girl

What one deserves is different according to the person you ask. Isn't it a shame subjective concepts can be so complicated >.<
I however was not impressed with the latest 2 costume patterns. I want MOAR!!!! MOAR I SAY!!!
More armour, more masks, and for the love of GOD, more beast stuff!! More beasty faces, beasty fur textures/patterns, what does everyone have against beasts!?!?
Just a hint at the costume designers, more beast stuff plox!
It's still no excuse to call one of the designers names though - there's no way Jay can add every single suggestion to the game, but the stuff he has made, requested or pre-palnned, has been welcomed by most of the players.
And, assuming NCSoft aren't running Paragon Studios as a charity, he's working for his salary - and as he still has his job, it seems his workrate is ok to his employers.

Basic maths yes, but no common courtesy. 
If you don't like the answer it doesn't make it less of an answer.
Big Dev team at the moment is working on GR which will be a paid for expansion so will have lots more content than the normal free issues. They will also be working on i16 which will introduce power customisation and possibly power sets. Though from a marketing PoV it would make more sense to put the sets into the paid for expansion which would encourage people to buy.
[/ QUOTE ]
Interesting slight, perhaps you could help me. The development team has substantially increased in size yet perversely the content has reached unprecedented lows. Last time I looked five men and his dog produced CoV, so what the frick are the current man hours going into?
[/ QUOTE ]
An, as yet, unreleased product.
What you expect them to materialise from thin air?

Well, sadly enough, there exists a concept called freedom of speech, and I'm going to quote Thunderf00t (internet superhero) in saying "Freedom of speech is a no holds barred arena"
My point being, there need be no excuse to criticise someone for any reason. I too, would prefer it if people would justify their hatred toward someone with reasons.
However, some people just like to take digs and it is well within their right to do so. However, we can give them flak about it too ^^
I'm going to go ahead and say I have no idea what the costume designer artists have been doing lately, but to be honest I don't have relevant knowledge about Paragon studios to judge them.
If someone would tell me what this Jay character has been working on, and when it is going to be released I'd happily provide my judgments about him.
However, since I know nothing, I'm going to remain quiet.
I understand other people's freedom of speech can be annoying sometimes, we all go through that ^^

So what can we expect?

New zones, missions, power sets and game mechanics in Going Rogue, and Power Customization in I16
[/ QUOTE ]
Hearsay - whilst you are at it what's the official line for I17 and beyond.............
[/ QUOTE ]
Hearsay? It's been confirmed
Positron has mentioned the "several new zones" as well as "missions, lots of missions".
Also, this isn't a normal Issue page or trailer
And if you want something less exciting looking, go here for the official press release
(It also mentions the demon summoning Desdemona, and the pistol using Maelstrom, which kinda hints that the new power sets will be in GR )
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, it hints at them using them weapons, but you have to remember that GR will be released AFTER i16. i16 powers and customisation. GR new zones/missions etc. Releasing them all with GR doesn't make sense to me at all. A lot of people have been asking for DPs for years now, but giving them to us in an expansion would be an unpopular move, IMO.
Posi: "Yes you can have your dual pistols, but you have to pay me more for them, na na na na naaaaaa" *Blows Rasberry*
Somebody has to agree with me?
wow i'm sorry i read through this but i'll throw in my 2 cents worth anyway
firstly have people not realized that the devs are in the process of adding a huge amount of stuff that has been asked for for soooooooo long (going rogue,power customization, dual pistols -sigh-)
i find it unlikely that we'll be playing GR on live this year to be honest, so when was the last time we were given all the info so long before even beta testing.
the Devs always tease us about content, its marketing if they told us everything people could say "thats [censored] *cancels sub*" which is bad for business for obvious reasons
and lastly the devs will never keep up with peoples suggestions, as soon as people get what they want, they want something else. Faraway hills and all that malarky. and given recent in game experience more and more people are confusing CoX with a single player game 
if people want an MMO where all their wildest dreams come true either develop your own or start paying a couple of hundred a month in subs
-sigh- .....ya I'm done
oh and for the record of all the MMOs I've played i do believe MA has some amazing potential and is one of the most original systems I've seen (it just coulda done with another 6 months of testing

I believe in terms of 'new stuff', CoH was pretty leading the MMO market. Dual spec, fully costumizable character (ok, Aion beats the hair/face by far), cross-nation AH, co-op with the enemy, and offcourse the MA. Some of these i never have seen in any other MMO.
But lets see if they can make it all come true, or be overwhelmed by Aion and CO launch (and later GW2).
50)Sinergy X/(50)Mika.
(50)MaceX/(50)Encore
Sign the petition, dont let CoH go down! SIGN!
Aion i know very little about and from what i know about CO i personally don't see it being that much competition, unless ppl just want to go "ooooo shiny new graphics" takes more than that to get me interested i still play the nes for god's sake
so i just don't see CO as that much of a threat (it is still cryptic after all )

That only says that dual pistols and demon summoning will be available no later than GR - not necessarily in GR.

I'm reading your post, and not quite getting where you're coming from. Going Rogue is going to be as big, if not bigger than City of Villains. It's designed to compete directly with Champions Online and keep the City of Heroes franchise fresh and attracting new players.
Several people have tried to explain that to you and yet you seem wilfully oblivious to the fact. However, whether you choose to believe it or not, Paragon Studios are staking the future of their product on this expansion and have invested very heavily in it. If that's not good enough for you, I'd suggest Horses and Water and Not Drinking may be appropriate analogys.
