Maybe they could make it so the new palce was hostile to both the blue and the red sides, so we'd have to go there and do co-op content to fight them?
You need to rant a little about how the ruler of these zones is truly evil. I think this sailed past people without that extra GG oomph.


Statesmonkey Sez: Lighten up! It's a game, for Lincoln's sake!
Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I am caught in a bit of a conundrum. While I HATE for NPCs to have costumes options that we do not get, I also hate when they look really plain.

I agree with the need for some new co-op zones. I am really surprised they have not converted the Shard or say Boomtown yet.

War Witch has said that they'll revamp underused zones when there's a reason to do so - with Praetoria and the invasion as the main focus right now, there's no reason for them to revamp any of the underused zones.

Unless there's something about one or more of the underused zones that would make them excellent entry points for an invasion from an alternate reality.

IMPO devs, it's time to create a new co-op zone or re-purpose another existing zone into a co-op zone.

Why am I reminded of the snowman voiced by Burl Ives in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer?

seeing as nobody actually read the i19 overview:

Quote:
Tin Mage Task Force*: The lost hero Tin Mage has returned to help coordinate an assault into Praetoria to stop the invasion cold. Your team strikes into the very heart of Nova Praetoria to confront Neuron, Bobcat, and a Praetorian army.

Anyone know what Tin Mage's powers were or his classification? Can't find his original mention so I forgot if it was ever revealed.

Tin Mage deserves a better costume than this. I suggest we lend a hand and post up some alternatives.

I think it looks rather cool - his name is Tin Mage, and he's a robot in a traditional magician outfit

I kinda agree - mainly because I hate those robot feet used. I'd use some Clockwork/Cyborg/magic pieces together.

I agree. They should have more contests for things like this.

I agree. Unfortunately, I think B.O.T.L.E.R. is pretty hideous too.
