Discussion: Halloween is coming!
Eh.
I've still got a ton of costume salvage from the past few years. It'll be nice being able to turn it in in Praetoria, though. Can't say I'm overly enthused - though maybe the DA events will get played through instead of ignored as they are the rest of the year. Curious about the tip mission, though. The devs are a bit busy this year, understandably, with GR, I19 and 20 in the pipe. Can I ask now for something new next year? (Actually, what I'd like is the chance to get a perma-temp costume power of the ones collected... that, I'd work for.) |
interesting, they spilled the beans on i19 yesterday, spilled some beans on Halloween today, this weekend they have the big meet and greet, dont they usually throw us a surprise during them? wonder what other info could be coming up.
It seems odd to me that the even actually *ends* on Halloween day. I can't recall an even ending on the day of its anchor holiday date like that before.

It's been my experience the zombies and other Halloween stuff will last well into Veteran's Day.
I think I get the most enjoyment of these types of events from watching those who are experiencing it for the first time. It's fun to see heroes knocking at the door and when I check their veteran badges, it is 3 or 6 months.
It's like watching kids at Christmas... their enthusiasm is contagious.
At least for the first two or three days.

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
It would contain a full costume set of a skeleton body, a "ghost" aura with little ghosty things floating about, an emote of the "zombie walk" accompanied by the zombie groan sound which seems to spam during the zombie apocalypse, and the power would be Frightening Visage (click, PBAoE melee radius, enemies Fear Mag 2 for 8s, recharge 20 min).
That's a neat idea actually. Throw in some zombie-rot, bloody clothing and bandages for costume enhancement and you might have a winner.
I do wonder if in Pratoria the salvage will have the same names...

So has anything been done to the way Jack in Irons spawns in the 20+ zones ? IE is it still a 10% chance he will spawn per Eochai defeat ? One of the biggest complaints each year is that Jack just doesn't like showing his head, personally i've defeated 30+ Eochai in Brickstown to finally get a Jack to spawn ... others have reported even higher numbers ... So, with that said ... has this been changed ?
And YAY halloween salvage ... |
good to see you on again.
Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
Yes, a Halloween themed booster would be quite appreciated, but we haven't heard anything supporting the notion and after the Mutant Booster and the Party Pack I'm not about to get my hopes up again. Still, the Event draws near, there is at least some new content, and all the folks who joined the game AFTER last Halloween will finally get to see what is supposed to happen when the Supernatural banners spawn, so I'm a happy camper!
I always enjoy trick or treating.
I am slightly sad that it is slated to end so soon because I do enjoy it but I understand most normal people get bored with it.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.
If there are Halloween costume pieces on the way, could you just, Iunno, make 'em unlockable, or give them to us for free, like in the good old days? Not everything has to be booster packs. It's kind of getting sad, actually. Please?
Will the tip mission be available at all levels?

A new Halloween specific Tip Mission. |
Hell, I don't think it would be out of line to add 5 tips, independent of the Fame bar, and then open up a special prize for completing a "Holiday Morality"

I think this is a fantastic idea and should be repeated for every holiday event.
