From what i saw yesterday on the city of heroes facebook page.......they are bringing back the comic.I really hope thats not all.I'm lookin for some Incarnate System info and some i19-20 news or even some light on more proliferation.Brutes need broad sword and ice armor already. New travel powers in the works or even the secret spears powerset.I just wanna smile with glee as my favorite MMO pleases once again.

 That is, if what I think is being announced is still being announced and has not been replaced by an announcement of an announcement to be announced at a later date. |

i'll put my money on the catgurl stuff. cuz we really don't have enough as is.
Positron's i13 letter: We are trying to make PvP more accessible to new players, while giving experienced PvP'ers the advantage that comes with formulating tactics around the new systems we're putting in place. PvP from now on will be on our priority list. If something isn't working out, we'll be in there tweaking it and making it work, for the entire future of the product, not just Issue 13.

Thank you.

hmm more costume pieces or pvp, yeah, you would definitely make more people happy by spending resources on pvp than expanding the costume pieces|

Is this right guys and gals? there are enough costume pieces, we dont need any more? are bugfixes that only affect a small part of the community usually big news for a convention? if theya re broken, then fixing them should be a normal procedure, not a groundbreaking announcement. by the way, why exactly are you and neut treating them as issues that would be fixed by the same groups? i doubt that jay or david would be part of fixing a pvp matter.

How about that all Base Construction Issue that was promised around i13/i14?
My Lego Models http://www.flickr.com/photos/30369639@N07/ lemur lad: God you can't be that stupid... I'm on at the same time as you for once, and not 20 minutes into it you give me something worth petitioning?Lady-Dee: Hey my fat keeps me warm in the winter and shady in the summer.
To begin, I have no idea what 4chan is (serious here, I know it's an internet meme but knowledge ends there) but GR was a great boon to PvE content, they could hit a home run if there were significant (and welcome) PvP changes coming, or Incarnate content announcements.
Another thread suggested cross-server teaming, which would be a massive can of worms being opened. How do they reconcile this with global server names, server-specific names and so on?
Still, I suppose we'll find out soon enough.

questions about a massive overhaul of an integral part of an MMO(which is what pvp needs, not just bug fixes) that affect probably about an equivalent size community as the RP and hardcore badger community (as well as affecting those who badge/rp in pvp zones). it'd be nice to get some acknowledgement, literally *anything*, before they talk about more costumes/useless rp stuff/animated tails 2.0

You are forgetting that a lot of this is handled by DIFFERENT teams/devs. David has nothing to do with game mechanics or how PvP balancing. He's part of the art team. The look of zones, npc design etc fall in that category. He can design new and pretty things for us that do not have any impact on people that would be working on what to do with PvP. Even emotes would be handled by an animation team but not the powers that are behind any of the animations. Meanwhile the teams that have some control over the changes to pvp are the people that would assume would be working to give us the new powersets, and the npc "action" that we got in going rogue. I'd say they've had their hands full. |

(i might be slightly off on the last point ...but for sure those working on costume parts are VERY far removed from PvP)

The hard things I can do--- The impossible just take a little bit longer.
If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-

i'm well aware that those devs aren't the ones that deal with any of this. but when castle says something new that will make people happy, we can dream can't we? (although generally those things that castle says aren't that spectacular and the stuff we do ask for is in the coming storm).|
