A new angle on the ITF

Haven't seen anybody mention this yet. I don't know if it's a change post-I17 or just a weird bug I happened to hit, but I took this screenshot during an ITF that I just finished.



Nice to finally see the Nictus that possesses Romulus (it disappears after blasting him).

Yeah it changed since i17. Seems like a few other things changed as well...

Sweet.


Be well, people of CoH.

I was a bit disapointed by this actually. I always imagined we didn't get to see who was speaking to Romy because it was supposed to be some big reveal in a future story line (Nemesis is that you?? ). Seeing that it was just the Nictus who possesses him is a tad disapointing.

The thought crossed my mind that it was the original intent of the devs to indeed have that big reveal in a future update, but that for whatever reason (GR?) they decided against continuing that storyline and tied off the loose end in this manner.

/wildspeculationmodeoff

Or maybe I'm just reading to much into this and there never was anything more than the Nictus ...

Yeah I noticed that as well last night when I was on an ITF for the first time since i17 went live. Nice to see

This.

I liked it more when the big bad was unknown to us.

Pay no attention to the Nictus behind the curtain!

While a Neminictumesis is hilariously bad, it was always just a nictus.

Seriously, you never picked up on the "I am NICTUS!!!" quote said by Romulus in that cutscene? Also the curious number of Nictus and Crystals that appear EVEN WHEN YOU HAVE NO KHELDIANS ON YOUR TEAM!?

...

Well, DUH.

I meant that I thought there was some sort of Uber Nictus or another AV of sort who was behind the whole thing instead of it being just a run off the mill nictus ...

Whew, I thought this thread was going to say there was a new rouge angle of satin in the ITF or something.
