Mwahaha! Sorry. Couldn't help myself.
But I wouldn't worry too much about it. You'll have to work a lot harder than that to get into Doomopolis. There are still shoot on sight orders if you try to enter the city limits without an invitation.

Holy crap.

It makes sense that they are taking it out (if that one level doesn't do enough), but it does leave us with fewer things that we know are going to be in Going Rogue. I've heard enough chat in-game that beta people have accidentally dropped to know there is more in Going Rogue (but not much more than that), but it does make me a little sad at this point. I only hope that there will be a good amount of stuff in this expansion.
I have posts prepped to crow over how wrong you were, MG, or to bewail how right you were. Which shows just how centered I am, heh.
And thanks, Flux. It's concern like yours that makes Victory a wonderful place.

I'm shocked they took it out, even though I think it's the right move.

GR is little more than a foundation for something bigger. I look forward to teh follow-on issues. For now though, Aug will be meh.
205723: A Different DESTINY
When Soldiers of Arachnos got their names added to the Destiny List, Longbow managed to get a copy of the list and began rounding villains up. But one name on the list shocked them...
I guess it's better to have it working smoother than release it and turn people off. Oh well, hopefully the other stuff in GR will be up to snuff.
All the good stuff is free, Market Merges and Patron Power Proliferation.
The only stuff in GR is what GP said plus side switching. So 1-20 Praetoria, 4 Power Sets and Side Switching.
The ability to have my Defender up in Rogue Isles, or my Dominator on the streets of Paragon city is enough of a draw for me 
No more having to run to co-op zones!
i dont mind that they took it out, i mean it was only 1 level, and if it wasnt as good as they wanted, i would rather have higher quality product than them just leaving it in anyway
one reason i like our devs compared to other games is the fact that if its not up to their standards they would rather postpone it until its of the highest quality
even without incarnate stuff, ill still have plenty of things to do (2 new toons, cathedral of pain for upper lvl toons, badges for my main, moving all 6 of my heros to redside, and prolly several things that i dont even know are in GR yet)
heh I got the original message edited.
The power of reading. Phear it.
I've already forgotten about most of you
list of things that excite me during the month of August:
College starts back up,
I will have been alive for a score of years,
54 months vet badge.
villain badges, for Ele.
I won't be burning my *** off in Florida (like I am right now)

With GR, i'll be able to get hero badges on r0x? If so, it's a no brainer that i'll still get that.

GR is just a long over due patch for the horrible mistake that was CoV. And we're being double charged for it.

Cov was awesome..the only main mistake they made was not letting villans roam paragon city or cause mayhem in PC....GR lets villans and heroes move to opposite sides.Like making city and isles co-ops....
cant wait to see villans do the shard tfs.....
I think COV was the best thing to happen to COH since issue 1 and GR is really great just give it a chance no fair calling DOOOOOM before you actually play it..
as far as being double charged.... they have to make some money some how at least they arent trying to charge us every update... with 18 issues that would be expensive
just think 18 free updates
if at 10 bucks a pop is 180 bucks!!!!
if at 20 bucks pop is 360 bucks!!!!
at 40 bucks its basically we are ripping them off
with GR new content is happening the colors are awesome =) ( i like the gold and red in website)
+ we still keep getting free updates....
as Ood Sigma said....We will sing to you, Doctor. The universe will sing you to your sleep. This song is ending. But the story never ends.

Ok, Doom:
Like their other major projects for the game (pvp, CoV, AE, O-Zone), this is a good idea that will be horribly implemented.

hey o-zone is great. it's an easy way to traverse blueside and redside! that's its main purpose, right?

I hate most that it o-zone portal interrupts superbase tp activation.

Indeed. And AE works great if you've only got an hour to play and need 20 or 30 more levels.*|

You know, I was iffy about getting GR before, and this is not helping.

The O-Zone is perfect if you don't want to maneuver poorly designed bases and/or laggy bases.

For those of you who missed Posi's post on the subject, we are not getting the start of the Incarnate system with Going Rogue. I understand the reasoning, and hope that this means the system will work better when it comes out with I19 (though I do hope this doesn't mean I19 is going to come out later than the end of the year).
Still, this give me a bit of the doom bug Mental Giant has been carrying. This hint at the system was a big draw for me with Going Rogue, so now I have to wonder what is going to go into GR to make it seem worthwhile.
Sure, there's a new soundtrack (that I'll have to check out later), but an expansion should have some solid gameplay with it, and GR has just lost part of that. 1-20 content, 4 new powersets, and nebulous other things (still all we know one month before release, unless we're in beta) isn't really cutting it for me after this.
Am I being doomtastic with this, or do I have reason to be down?
