especially since, when you open Properties, it says the file name is "WomenScorned.PNG"

looks like the new GM will be nicknamed 'Cloverfield' to me


There is no such thing as an "innocent bystander"

I am hoping that this will be on for more than a week or two at the end of October- I'm going to San Francisco on the 28th and won't have access to a computer. Even if I did, why would I want to spend my trip hunched over the thing when I could be out walking the Golden Gate Bridge?

I used to live in Oakland. Walking in San Francisco is so overrated. It's all foggy and cold and there are hippies everywhere. Stay in your hotel room and play computer games.

Oh good. Maybe they'll find a way to apply the camera shudder that the Kheldian form change inflicts on everyone in the vicinity to the entire game world all the time during the event, just so the ambience is correct.

Lamentable but true. When I was at Hero Con last year, we went to see the Golden Gate, but it was too foggy in October to get a decent view. So we went to the wharf instead and had some warm clam chowder, chili, and coffee

Coin! Where ya been? Aint seen you around for aagggeeessss!!!!

Personally i hope this is some kind of resident evil type of event. Enter the mission where the entire zone has been infested with the "zombie virus" and its just ambush after ambush of them! You also get a few temp powers of chainsaw/shotgun

Or the haunted house idea sounded kind of . . . . well awesome!

Hey If this is NEW content storyline wise . . . . . . wouldnt this be the first time we've seen the entire new dev team work after their transaction period of i13 -15 content? No pressure guys and gals

Here's hoping that they'll actually add something to this years V-Day event.

I think you'd have to use Ouroboros to find out

So these were found diggin around in the code or what?

It appears I'll have some duties to preform at Halloween this year on Untimely Gentlemen...

Splendid.

When the lights go out zombies roam about! A cup of tea for me before we see the city of the night, although filling children with terror and fright is a reward of its own; a gentleman's parade this year will be made! An Untimely parade at that.

Huzzah!!

I wonder if these will be in an actual mission? We already have an invasion with badges, and door mobs with badges, so I think it'd make snese if there were Halloween missions too.Maybe the mission or missions trigger the new GM to spawn?

You folks are correct. There will be a new Halloween event this year, and we're expecting to test the new event next week on the Training Room.

Stay tuned for more info, I'll get it to you guys as soon as we've confirmed the details internally!

By the way, I just realized. Why has the zombie invasion been going on the entire year? I thought it was a halloween-only event, it has sort of lost its charm.

It is still possible to cause an apocalypse to spawn, but it will be single zone, not constant.

Are the Devs ever going to add images to the costume badges?

It's been years now.

I am hoping that the weather in SF this october will be nicer than it has been this month- I've been checking the Golden Gate Bridge webcam at www.goldengatebridge.org and the poor thing's been shrouded in fog all week. Ugh. September and October are supposed to be the nice months.
And to complicate things, I don't have a laptop that can run CoH..A good gaming laptop is tres expensive- not in the budget right now
