Inherent Fitness pool? Really?
Come on now.

...yeah...
Also, to Seek_Trouble... I don't see a problem with it, why are you disappointed?

music to my eyes. I really like the sound of that. I don't keep up with the dev digest so I don't know if this has been addressed or not.|

The only problem I can see with that is having extra powers and not enough slots to go around.
is there any other info on that?
maybe extra slots at lower levels?
Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
I assume it is issue 19 that's going, I guess went, into closed beta and not issue 20?
Quote:
You'd be assuming wrong. Issue 20 will contain the meat and potatoes of the new end game and they want to get a head start on testing the new systems now. Projections for Issue 20 hitting Live are early 2011.

And much like how no one knew that GR was deep in beta testing, I wouldn't be surprised if I20 was being tested right now.

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Ah, I thought the alpha slot was coming out in i19. Or do you mean that the majority of the incarnate system is in i20? Still seems strange to start testing on issue 20 before 19.
Quote:
Alpha is going ot be i19. But chances are i19 is going to be stuff from i18/GR that had to be pushed back. Probably a lil bit of mid level / end game content for Praet, including somewhere, the Apex task Force, for incarnates only.|

i20, by all guesses, is going to be huge, and requires a much longer Beta program. Its also going ot have ALOT of stuff that we can't know about, hence they are doing a signed NDA as opposed to the usual consented one. While NDAs are pretty iffy on their legality usually, theres still little chance of info getitng leaked over it, as ALOT of big bad could come down on the people breaking it.

I wonder if it's only people going from Villain to full Hero they count, or if they also count the Rogues. Most people I know only have 1 or 2, if any at all, villains that went permanently to blue side. But a whole slew of them that went Rogue. Vigilantes are a lot less comon afaik.

I was wondering if the primary count on going good or bad was where people went after they left Praetoria, rather than on older characters switching.
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.

Quote:
Yes, but as Posi stressed at the panel, I19 will not be the entire full blown incarnate system. I19 will introduce the Task Force to introduce the incarnate system and the Alpha Slot. These will be the first step in to the entire system which will essentially be released in phases down the road.|

So just so you're prepared, when I19 lands, you do your task force, get your alpha slot, you're probably going to think 'That's it?!". Well at that time, yes, that will be it, but there is more coming.

Yes....just the Incarnate System. Like that's a small thing.|

Do people forget that the Devs never show all their cards when they make announcements like this? There will be more to I19 than what they've already said.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
Quote:
It'll have the first Incarnate slot in it, plus it should also give everyone access to Praetoria.

If I get invited at some point, I hope my mom is ok with me signing it - she doesn't really understand video games, so a player being asked to sign anything will concern her |

Anyway, my 13 yo brother plays. And my now 20 yo brother has been playing since he was a teenager as well.

Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
