* Paragon Studios are pleased to announce the return of well known 'City Of' alumnus Jack Emmert to the position of Head of Community Relations and Chief Public Relations Coordinator.

Warning:
The above post may contain Cynicism, sarcasm and/or pessimism. If you object to the quantities contained, then tough.
* We are proud to announce the inclusion of the new "/duel" command! Simply target another player in any location and use the command to challenge them to a fight on the spot. (Note: there is currently a bug that causes any player who does not accept accept the duel to gain ten million points of debt and to randomly lose enhancement slots. These lost slots cannot be reestablished by tech support at this time.)
* As has been much requested by the PVP community, we are allowing characters to level solely by fighting PVP battles. In order to promote this new system, all contacts and NPC enemies have been removed from the game until further notice.
* Due to issues with attempting to eliminate weapon redraw, all weapon sets have been unfortunately broken beyond repair. Character that use weapons will be deleted automatically. However, because of this, weapon redraw is no longer an issue, so this will be considered to be working as intended.

My "announcement" was that animated hair would be Villain exclusive.

No, I would totally love to see that. You'd see more players on the streets of the game triggering NPC conversations just to see what weirdness you came up with. |

Again, I wouldn't mind that. I'm pretty sure the devs might kill whoever implemented that, though, if what I've heard about the cutscene editor is true.

... reminds me of my "Define Oops" question in game. Do we mean "Oops as in Brittney Spears just lost her top or "Oops, Paragon Studios just processed Jack's application to be lead designer again"|

Since we got a couple of name references already, here's an announcement that would probably cause just as much fear and panic as Jack coming back.
*NCSoft just gave Sai Dev Level access.
* a new leveling system to stop all the power leveling everyone will start at level 50 and will work their way down to level 1
* Mastermind pets will now incorporate the new AI based on shopping trolley wheel technology (nb: implemented in i6)

Due to difficulties regarding the new Morality system, Going Rogue has been postponed until December 2012!

to 
TO THE END!Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!
With the new "Ultra-Mode" Graphics enabled, shorter characters may wish to avoid melee with Tuatha De Dannon. Ranged combat may be preferable until pants are added to this enemy model.
On the bright side, their new Brawl animation makes sense. 
JACK "STATESMAN" EMMERT TO RETURN TO CITY OF HEROES

*Citing player concerns regarding travel suppression in combat and the feeling of super-powered combat, it has been scrapped. Regeneration, however, will use the old "travel suppression" code, and a -Regen effect has been built into a few enemy powers that previously lacked them.

Say that Jack did come back to the CoH dev team. How much influence would he have? Positron is the leader of the dev team now, and I assume Positron has final say on what this game needs and doesn't need, it's not like the keys of the city will be handed back to Emmert.

I think Steelclaw could do an entire comedy thread just on what you'd see in various cut scenes.
Imagine, for example, the cut scene for one of the hydra missions: 15 seconds of hydra monsters growling incoherently at each other.
