Character Death in Praetoria

How exactly will it be handled? As I can't see Cole's hospitals catering for Resistance members.

Will each faction have their own hospitals (and by extension, their own safe zones)? Anyone else got any theories?

Funeral... Short Eulogy by comrades in arms... then heavy drinking at after-party.

What? Tyrant is Irish.


My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

Resistance safe houses using stolen medical tp tech, and normal hospitals for Tyrant's goons is the way they'll do it, I think.

EDIT: There might still be some maps where we have to break out of a Praetorian prison, like we do on some Council and Thorn maps now.

I think the plan is to leave you in the street begging passers-by for a wakie.

Precedent for this already exists. In shared zones, villains wake up at the villain reclimators and heroes wake up at the hero ones. They're always in the same room, so it usually doesn't matter, but I assume Praetoria will separate them.

There'll probably have to be Resistance safe houses of some sort in each zone, because there'll need to be trainers and places to sell your stuff too.
There might be a main Resistance base, that's like the Vanguard one, with several signature Resistance NPCs in it, and then other smaller bases in the other zones.

I have significant doubt.

That seems most likely.

As long as we don't have to put up with those Loyalist pigs after being defeated, it's bad enough here on the boards

So you admit that defeat is inevitable....

It's likely at some point - but it'll only be a setback

y'know, if/when there's a Marvel MMO on the market, all they need to do is have you meet Spider-Man in the tutorial and any possible doubt over whether you'll return from death is removed. I think there's maybe 3 people in his life who haven't been dead at some point and got better.

I'd be ok with helping the Resistance menaing it would be harder to level and do missions, to represent the danger in Praetoria - but I wouldn't be ok with being locked up after one defeat

Who's to say there won't be a separate Resistance zone? I mean, heroes and villains have their own zones within Primal Earth. Who's to say that Resistance and Loyalists will be sharing zones?

Well, then you take the "Rogue" aspect into consideration. Chances are, if you are in the same zone as a Loyalist, while you're playing a member of the Resistance, then you'd have to go Rogue/Vigilante to even be allowed there.

But, chances are that you just have to play the part of a spy/double agent to be allowed to rez in Loyalist/Resistance areas.

I like the idea of being a spy - I'd make a special costume for that - better not to run around in spandex and a cape if you're trying to be un-noticed

But I don't think that's what Praetoria is like - the superpowered people either serve Tyrant, or disappear - so I think there will be very few capes and spandex outfits there - just lots of normal NPCs, Clockwork and Praetorian Police.
