Are we getting more time travel areas?

So is this a question or a suggestion? The question section is up a ways.
If a suggestion for a new zone, try giving some details/background. Just saying add this isn't much to go on.
Here is one zone idea I liked: link
Well I mean how we have the roman zone through midnighters, I'm just wonder why not have another area we visit through time travel. Adding new types of enemies, and a new arc. I can't really think of to many details right now seeing as I just woke up but I was just thinking we should have a middle ages area.

Personally, I'd love to have a western zone.
But more than that, I want the Lost World.
I want to go back in time 65 million years to stop some dastardly plot.
Of course, that'll never happen because of the skeleton issue but I can dream can't I?

I'm kind of curious what, if anything, is going to happen with the extra islands in ouroboros. I'm hoping they're not just there for show because a number of them look like they could very easily hold some special contacts or functionality.
It's impossible to get to those islands without some flight or teleport powers, I'm guessing they're just for show.
I dunno what else they'd use for a time travel zone that fits with the game lore. I mean, Cimerora makes sense because so much of this game is based on Greek and Roman mythology, but when else would we go?

Well how about Earth 1940s? A good deal of the game lore revolves around the 5th Column and the Council so why not send us back to say Germany 1939 or so and have us battle 5th Column trying to overthrow Hitler and the Nazis and change history? I realize including HITLER in the game would be considered very Politically Incorrect but just leave him out altogether and focus on some Field Marshall or whatever that is siding with the Column to become the new leader of a Facist Germany. |

I don't think the Midieval theme is completely farfetched either since so much of the game revolves around magic. How about a zone where COT have discovered a way to travel back in time and are attempting to destroy King Arthur, Merlin and the Knights of the Round Table and obtain the magic that Merlin posssed?
Then again its not like we HAVE to time travel backwards is it? Lots of comic books have series where a hero from our time travels to the future. Maybe come up with a whole new alien race that have defeated the Rikti and now plan to conquer every world the Rikti ever controlled or tried to including the earth. Could even allow us to have Rikti survivors in missions as (OMG) allies!

A medieval zone would be awesome - and so would an ancient Egyptian one 
A medieval zone would guarantee us long dresses too

City of Heroes comics and artwork
My Votes:
1) Flash Gordon/Buck Rogers-style future zone, perhaps on the moon.
2) Egyptian.
3) Lost World.
Perhaps we could take a part of Ra's travel throught underworld where he fights against the evil giant snake. Every night Ra defeats him (with help of superhumans) but if he lost there shall no be next morning. Well that's complete TF already.
Pyramids, mummies, gods with animal heads and other cool stuff. Sounds fun.

Yes...and maybe a wizard costume, or maybe even more armor types.

I think it's safe to say we won't be getting a medieval area. While there are many time periods we could explore, City would need to do a really unique take on medieval to not give that area a Fantasy MMO feel, and I don't think City wants to cross over into that territory.

I would LOVE a Western-style place. Specifically a Wild Wild West style place with STEAM.
Give us issue umpteen, Wild West, including...
-New Dual Pistols animations that don't require me to make a monkey to not feel stupid. (yes, I made a monkey. His name is Bananas Akimbo)
-a Wild West themed zone
-Horse travel power. Yeah, I said it. I don't think it'll ever happen but I would love it to death.

The roman place was awesome. I'd love to see them add a medieval zone.
