So, any news or rumors? Really looking forward to seeing this set.
Thanks.

Travel Suppression is this game's worst feature, well that and MetaHumans riding mass transit like tourists at DisneyLand.

All we know at this point is that it will be sometime in April. Barring any unforeseen postponing anyway.

To this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you. To this 4/4 beat, I would die for you. Your lovesick melody is going to get the best of me tonight, but you won't get to me 'cause I won't sing.

And that will only be for people who pre-ordered Going Rogue.

Wrong. Only for those who pre-purchased Going Rogue.

Demon Summoning Release Dates
If you pre-purchase Going Rogue: In April, with the release of Issue 17.
Everyone else: In July, with the release of Going Rogue, provided you buy the Going Rogue Expansion.

And not even everyone else will get it. Only people who buy Going Rogue get access to use Demon Summoning and Dual Pistols. Pre-purchasing people just get it as soon as it hits live instead of waiting until July or whenever Going Rogue actually comes out.

Good point. I updated my OP.

I was thrilled when they announced we would get DS with I17 instead of having to wait until Going Rogue in July. Now instead of anxiously waiting for GR I am anxiously waiting for I17.

total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I got one to 50, all other attemps have been like pulling teeth (Fun to do to someone else but a pain to do yourself).

I just have tomany alts right now to worry about when they come out. I just hope my DP is 50 by then.

Masterminds are fun!

I have two at 50, and 2 more resting at 3X...

My two 50´s were really fun to grow:

Psiforce Nova - Ninja / Force Field... And yes, i visualized a pinball machine when I chose the sets... She was also my first red 50.

Kaitlyn JMM - Merc / Storm... Really fun to play, and its my only toon without Nova on the name...

Yes. I can get lost on a straight-line map.

In the same way they spun DP off GR, I think they can probably spin DS off the I17 beta, so even if there were any delays with ultra mode, DS would still be ready to go live.

From the Newsrama PAX East blogstream:

Quote:
it will hit servers with Issue 17, again for pre-purchasers. A world premiere of the video was shown, we'll have it for you on Monday on the site, as well.
Not much help, but I17 should be, I would say, hitting the mains in 2-3 weeks.

Thank you for the time...

Personally, I'm more interested in Kinetic Melee and Electric Control than I am Demon Summoning.

To this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you. To this 4/4 beat, I would die for you. Your lovesick melody is going to get the best of me tonight, but you won't get to me 'cause I won't sing.

I'm betting it'll be a few more weeks before I17 goes open beta. Even though UM has been in development for a while (they showed it at the last Hero-Con), the closed Beta allows them to test a great many more hardware configurations and video cards. Who knows what weirdness might spring up. And that's just UM.

Then toss in the new UI for WW/BM, MA changes, and the e-mail transfer system. If the e-mail transfer system hiccups, I'll be able to hear the screams from here in East Nowheresville. Heck if the market hiccups or the MA gets another major XP loophole the howling won't just be a movie. Look at the cries over the BotZ change.

Open Beta ideally is for adding the spit and polish, not major debugging. If GR is starting Closed Beta next week I'm betting it'll be in a separate training room server. We'll also see the pre-Issue 17 patch being downloaded.

Where are you guys seeing this info? Sounds sweet!

Check out the PAX thread in the Going Rogue forum.

I actually saw it on MMORPG.com.

They showed this video at PAX showcasing the new Kinetic Melee set, and it looks AWESOME.
