Blazara Aura LVL 50 Fire/Psi Dom (with 125% recharge)
Flameboxer Aura LVL 50 SS/Fire Brute
Ice 'Em Aura LVL 50 Ice Tank
Darq Widow Fortune LVL 50 Fortunata (200% rech/Night Widow 192.5% rech)--thanks issue 19!

I would shelf any release plans till after Star Wars, and the WoW expansion die down. I think I would wait at least a year, if not more. |

I would rather see constant upgrades to this game, than a CoX2 any way.

All of these "CoX 2 haters" are just afraid of playerbase splits or things of that nature. They don't realize that by the time a CoX 2 came out, this game would have to have lasted ANOTHER 4 years. Now, I'm not saying it's impossible, but I AM saying it would be absolutely stupid and short-sighted of any dev to NOT look to the future of their franchise at this point.

Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

There's exactly zero chance that Paragon Studios' new project could possibly release in the next year. I would be surprised if they were talking about beta testing in 2012, actually.

Honestly, I wouldn't care if all my characters got wiped if it meant a brand new, updated version of City of Heroes. That would be the perfect time to start fresh anyway.

Unfortunately can't point to specific examples...but I can sat that I think Seth Green, Tricia Helfer, Michael Dorn and Adam Baldwin are all awesome voice actors.

I totally fell for it! <.< 
Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.

But using the NWN 1 sounds.
And I assume the new module maker will require about 5 programming degrees to use.
And you can dual wield longbows? (This space was originally a 5 expansions joke. But then I remembered how many the original had)

A better Idea would be to have CoH2 allow you to have a active coh account, but not vica versa. That way, old players can still go back and play characters of yesteryear, but also entice players to play in the new world. Maybe have it like an extra $5.00 a month or something.

Jay Doherty: Yes, there was this one night that I was ready to go home but had to drop the browns off at the super bowl before I left for home. While on the throne it hit me. I stayed for a few more hours and that why we have the pain pads in the game.
Quote:
Same here. And the idea of a CoX2 to seek out a new playerbase? What the heck? We ARE the playerbase...many of us old and many of us new.

Thanks that was a great read, lovely to see him dig such a hole for himself. I just wish he would shut the hell up about CoH, associating this with Cryptic is bad for business. I like how he has already written off both their other games. To see CoH still be so successful must be so infuriating for him.

I find it hilarious that he has written off both games (CO and STO) as mistakes, like they occurred years ago, and not just in the last year. (CO's first year anniversary is in 4 days ;P)

If there will be a COH2 version that is completely seperate.. they will split up the COH players in two... as many will never stop playing the old version. Splitting up the player base is not a good idea. The merging we have now of COH and COV is proof that the devs see that problem too.
I would say evolve the game ... not start over and have COH and COH2 next to each other. I see that going wrong in many ways. People still play the 2 D Ultima Online as they dont want to abandon their old toons... do we want that effect on this game?
