If only we had growth

I've also wanted growth since I started the game back in i7, Been hoping the devs would put it in the game for awhile now. I know its very complicated to make it graphically possible but I really hope they can get this powerset in this game in the upcoming issues.

But Castle has been working on that; at one point on Test the Giant Mekman was available in AE because he was fiddling with targeting. Hopefully at some point we can get Really Big baddies.

I have this vague recollection of a thread called something like "The Powerset you really want but know will never happen". Castle posted there saying he really wished growth powers were feasible, but they just aren't.

Or it could just be me feeding myself false information while I sleep. Again.

Growth cannot be supported by the CoX engine and will never happen.
Since it came from HeroCon, I can only assume that this was said by a dev. Sorry for being the dude who pees in your Corn Flakes.

Well good to know. Thanks for the Castle quote, makes it not worth hoping for. Would be nice if they at least increased the max height then... but still... Oh well, don't know if I will head to champions eventually or not.. I definitely need some new powersets to play with.

Ok beating a dead horse here.. Its bad enough they have Atlas's big statue rubbing growth in your face the minute you log in with a toon.. but I was just in KR and their is a plague talking about his exploits.. They don't make growth, or make it possible.. but its a big part of the lore of the game they make.. Nice.
