These things take time to organize - setting up Hero Con ain't like dustin' crops, boy! Without precise calculations they could drive right through a Star Trek convention, or bounce too close to a furry gathering and that'd end the trip real quick, wouldn't it?

lol! Thing is, COX would fit right in with either of those crowds 
The beauty of a superhero game. Anything fits in from aliens to super squirrels!

>_> And I'm a furry, I can say stuff like that lol!!
No seriously - most conventions are organized a year in advance, with preparations made for getting hotel arrangements and flight / travel times a priority. Remember that it's not just "go get a hotel" it's NC is making hotel arrangements so that there are blocks of rooms available to JUST us, so that we don't disrupt others that might accidentally be around.
Not that I'm part of "us" this year, but still

I understand, I really do, but I'm afraid you just gotta show some patience. It's all scheduled already, so at least we know how long to wait until the next dump of vague and blurry information.
Why yes, I, too, am impatient.

@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

..... Okay, yes, it IS too much to ask.
..... But I still want it.
Freedom: Blazing Larb, Fiery Fulcrum, Sardan Reborn, Arctic-Frenzy, Wasabi Sam, Mr Smashtastic.
Just so long as there's someone at the first look preview of Going Rogue who can provide a word for word transcript of everything that's said, and HD recordings of any and all video footage.
That's not too much to ask, is it?
(Although it would also be nice of the devs to throw out a couple of screenshots or something for everyone to over analyse in a speculative frenzy for the next few weeks...)
If there is gameplay footage, I hope it gets a proper release rather than a recording of the screen, as that might not show any grahpics upgrades very well.

They're not graphics upgrades, they're morally ambiguous graphics!

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

Great stuff.
It seems to me like they've been advertising hero con for ages. Its something I have no interest in but expect some news for the game will come out afterwards (or during). So.... hero con... happen! Be over! And stop with the adverts taunting me!
