*Going Rogue Update*

I know there has been rumblings here and there. Crazy talk about graphical updates. New Powersets! New places to go and people to see. ETC. I checked the Dev Digest. I didn't see any new rumblings from the "Almighty Developers"!
So... I was wondering when the advertising people and/or lawyers, are going to let Positron or some other Famous Dev tell us more about the upcoming expansion to City of Heroes and Villains!

I believe the current expectations are that they'll talk more about it at Hero Con.

They have to sign an NDA to get to see it so we are only going to get to see what the company wants us to see.

I would be surprised if any info given at the con was not reposted on the boards quickly, either by the official route, or the players who are there.

swell, the way i read it, the nda is for the closed beta "reward" for going there, not for the info disseminated at the actual con

I thought that was purely for the closed beta access?

It is. Anything they disclose at Hero Con will have been vetted by Marketing and is fine for public dissemination. It's only the closed beta which requires the NDA.

Sorry if I confused anyone. That was all I meant by what I wrote.

I wonder if I can win the lottery tomorrow night so I can go to Hero Con.

Pretty much, yep. I'd pay my bills and tell my boss I need that time off to go to Hero Con.

All the other stuff I would do could wait until I got back.

Just rob a bank instead. Bonus kudos if you do it in the costume of your main Villain.

I would have started saving up money last year if I had to fly to Hero Con this year. And I did... but I had to spend savings on my wife's teeth, plus I have college courses. Oh well, even if I wasn't going to be in closed beta, I'll see GR sooner or later

I was saving up to go to Hero Con. Then I decided I wanted a bigger house. Now I'm not going to Hero Con anymore.

How in the **** is asking for information about an upcoming expansion called an "entitlement rant".

God I wish they would remove tags and rank comments...

Positron said it was going to be really transforming to the game and would include things like the dead rising from the grave, human sacrifice, and dogs and cats living together. But since they were afraid of mass hysteria if too many vague details were released before it went live, they've been keeping a tight lid on things.

I clicked on this thread hoping for a breaking Going Rogue update (it has asterisks!). I am sadly disappointed. I'm really looking forward to hearing more details on GR.

I'm not the negrepper in this case, but I was considering it just for starting this thread. You've been around long enough to know that info comes when info comes. And you have a history of trying to bait the Devs into responding to your 'innocent' questions about upcoming issues.

This is not new to you and the negative reaction to these threads is not new to you. Don't know why you're surprised by it. It's like being surprised you got stung after throwing a rock at a hive.

What he said. Honestly, we're just going to have to wait until and after Hero Con, because Marketing loves to use face-to-face events to spill big news. I'm sure we'll have plenty of second-hand info during the con, and plenty of first-hand info soon thereafter.

Agreed. I thought this thread would contain information about a new update, not a request for one.

Plus, y'know, how would the people who bought tickets to HeroCon feel when the "super special entirely new info just for you guys" gets posted to the forums two weeks before?
