Anyone notice that the General Discussions section seemed to have stopped "OMGAWSH I17!"ing rather abruptly? The player made main discussion of it hasn't even been updated in 2 days.

Am I missing something?

Excitement is dead until they fix SF difficulty. If that is part of i17, then YayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyI17!

Maybe it has something to do with beta testing dual pistols and spring fling keeping the masses mollified.

That's my guess. Boards and live servers seem a bit slower in general since closed beta started.

The dopplegangers are now in charge of our posting accounts. They are not as enthusiastic as we are...has this not happened to you yet, Tobay?

The only problem with screenshots of NPCs is that everyone will assume it's a PC and speculate about how we'll obtain the costume it's wearing only to have our hopes crushed in a nonsensical post from Jay a week later.

That's not a problem, that's a feature.

I am severely disappointed that we do not get the Tron costume.

A quick attempt at a Tron cossie marks out of 10?

You get a big fat 0.

Just kidding. Awesome glowing parts of the costume aside, the Tron outfit they showed just had a great (and fairly different from other) costume silhouette. I am always excited when we get new geometry and hope the new stuff in GR makes our characters stand out differently than before.

They do make all character models the same: collections of costume pieces attached to a skeleton. (More or less.) But since the majority of NPCs aren't built as character models it doesn't really solve anything. i wonder how much it would affect game performance if every NPC was built like a character instead of being a single model.

i17 content description was a bit too vague to get excited about honestly,

New badges? missions? costumes? Well some screenshots or a brief description of those would be nice. Especially the Dopplegangers or w/e.

Hell there isn't even a "picture" for i17: Dark Mirror on the game updates page like they usually release with the announcement of a new issue. Maybe that'll come when we actually find out some of the stuff mentioned above?

Hope we see more soon.

It probably was. Bleah, me not read good early in waking?
Don't see any simple way to change it, though.
i have a feeling building all NPCs like player characters might up the requirements.

Probably including a fair few people who may not have noticed they're in Beta because their e-mails never arrived.
