Hey, were you the one I was sitting next to outside the panel room? You can see my back (blue shirt) in James_Joyce's videos #3 & 4.

I'm still working on getting my videos uploaded. It's my first time playing with them and I'm having a hard time getting them small enough for YouTube not to choke.


Edit:
Alright. I've finally been able to upload my videos from the NY Comic Con panel. Same info as James_Joyce, of course, but I was trying to give equal time between the Devs and the slide show. You can see Jesse do his hand wavings. Enjoy:

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6

When someone asked about the swords, the devs would only say it was related to the Task Force.

And when someone asked about new temp powers from missions they answered that they couldn't answer that without giving away too much information about the new TF

Power of the Alpha Slot heavily recommended to do the TF? Eh, RO will do it in half the time with a team of emps :P

So psyched for this issue now

How about Alpha-Slotted emps? My Empath will be the first character I get it for.

Yeah, sorry - my flip cam filled up at that point.

I meant to post earlier to thank you both, RogueSeraphim and James_Joyce!
Much appreciated.
I don't know if we met and/or talked at all at the meet and greet (J_J you weren't wearing the red bow tie).

Alright... I couldn't find the one picture I was remembering, but there is this link in this thread here.
I have to run out for now, so I can't finish my search for the pic!

Probably not! I barely talked to anyone 'cause of the name tag issue. But I was the guy that looked like Harry Potter (not dressed as him, I just look like that).

I should've went up and talked with the devs, but didn't do that either.

It's too bad they limit the Q&A times. People went a long way and didn't seem to get a ton of time to chat game with the devs.

They never really mentioned if we actually get that NPC costume set...I assume it was said at a point and I missed it. Really liking that gear.

I was hoping the devs might let us know what's in store for the game over the next year. They used to but ah well. Would have been cool to see if they were thinking of doing another box expansion.

It seems like they sure brushed over the Mission Architect system. That thing needs something special. A ton of work went into that and it seems to be going downhill. I think it'd still be cool if they had those contests and the rewards would be to turn your mission into canon and put it into the game(paper and radios maybe). That would certainly boost interest.

To my knowledge they never specified that we'd get that specific set, nor any other specific set. Nor that they'd be free in issues or whether we'd have to pony up extra ( most likely since it's been a year since the last free pieces other than animating tails). There was a lot of excitement when npc costumes were originally mentioned to be coming to us, and now the stipulations are coming out. I was already disappointed at what we got for Paragon Police pieces, I really wanted the uniform and the combo chest/shoulder piece with a badge in it. The first thing I look for in each expansion/issue (and many others, I'm sure) are the costume pieces. Any issue without them is a disappointment to me, we only get the auras as a concession due to them leaking out early.

And in I20 they're going to come to your house and kick your puppy.

I hope a red name comes in here and clarifies if we're getting that set or not. Seems like everyone is saying we are but I never heard the panel say that.

Only if you buy the puppy pack.

Flipper's evil (possibly Praetorian) twin, Flopper? I know it *looked* like the end of him when Bud shot him in the eye with that harpoon gun, but since then there have been reports of a eye patch-wearing porpoise all up and down the Florida Keys. Coincidence? Somehow I don't think so.

Alright. I've finally been able to upload my videos from the NY Comic Con panel. Same info as James_Joyce, of course, but I was trying to give equal time between the Devs and the slide show. You can see Jesse do his hand wavings.

Unfortunately, the video taken with my new camera came out rather dark. I don't really know why, I was using default settings. This was my first time shooting video with it indoors.

Note: You might notice Part 2 at around 4:42 has a hiccup. That was due to my recording stopping spontaneously. It rather shocked me and I missed 2-3 sentences from Melissa before I started it up again. I was under the impression that the camera could record indefinitely until it filled the memory card, so when it stopped I was struck wondering how it could be full already and that I would need several minutes to take apart my monopod to change out the memory card. Luckily, it was able to continue recording when I finally thought to give it a try. Well, more lucky that I noticed it flicker when it stopped otherwise I could have lost more time.

And, I apologize for cutting the videos up into 6 parts. I had the hardest time getting them small enough for YouTube not to choke on 'em. It was a pain waiting 2 hours per upload attempt before seeing that it failed.

Anyway, enjoy:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6

I couldn't find any devs. Except Black Pebble, who gave me a Rikti Costume card.

Oh, and I'd say I was the tall guy in all black with long hair but you'd have to reply "could you please be more specific?"

ok, watched the video, if we get that, i will be VERY happy. hoping we see some magic themed stuff as well, but if we get that set, it is incredible, and exactly what was needed. i am upgraded to pretty freaking stoked now.

GREAT... I hope nobody is now under the impression that *I* was you.

I have blues eyes... had a 5 o'clock (Or 10PM) shadow...
I was probably nicer than Venture (Or... you know... just nice!)

To be honest I never remembered them saying it either when I was there, only that it was their general philosophy to give us any new NPC parts when possible but assumed I just missed it since other people said it happened.
