Some of us have difficulty connecting and viewing the live or recorded shows as well.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Von Krieger does a pretty good job of posting highlights of the UStream after each one.

There are some contacts that would need to be moved. I can't name them at the moment, but the trainer for respec and there is a contact that you have to talk to for the Cape and maybe the Auras mission(s).
I am hoping that Outbreak and Breakout will at least be preserved in Ouroboros since there are badges that can only be obtained there. I wonder how they are going to handle the Epic ATs - will they go to Galaxy City? I guess this means you could see a Peacebringer in Mercy or a Widow in Atlas.
What are they going to do with Praetoria? All new players start in Galaxy City... Will Praetorians be able to use Ouroboros to access Galaxy City?
Will there be a way for a Hero/Villain to go and do the Praetorian content later? There some Praetorian badges (like Resistance) that can only be earned by doing those storylines.
Another quick thought - will you be able to choose Praetorian instead of Hero/Villain?

Thanks Lemur, a topic search for Ustream turned up nothing, will keep an eye out for "Dev Chat" as well from now on.

The Praetorian starting experience doesn't change at all, as far as everything I've seen/heard.

The respec contact is Jack Wolfe, and he was already mentioned upthread. The cape and aura mission contact is the City Representative, in Atlas, not Galaxy.

They mean in the mission you get from the City Representative that sends you to Galaxy and various other places for 'talk to's.

I have a level 1 character who has been sitting in the tutorial now seven years.
Why? Initially because after creating him I didn't like the look but then I started to logged him in later to see how many badges he could get without leaving the tutorial. I think he is up to 51 now.
Will be kind of sad to see him kick out of the tutorial now

Exactly -- this isn't going to be a problem. Geez, it's not like the devs don't know about this stuff, guys.

When I first heard of the changes to Galaxy, my thought was "Revisionist history! Nuke Galaxy, wipe it clean, eliminate any evidence of Back Alley Brawler ... you creeps!"
I attended the Galaxy BAB vigil and still make a point of collecting the exploration badges there ... this zone change just has a fishy smell about it to me.

Uuhhh... BAB is still going to be in Galaxy. Actively fighting in Galaxy, instead of standing around picking his nose. (Which is pretty hard to do with those gigantic gauntlet/glove things.)

Can you imagine him having to get med-ported everytime he needs to? (Again, BaB?) |

I find your lack of signature disturbing.

Epic ATs (Kheldians & Spiders) able to start on opposite sides out of the box? Red side ATs immediately on Blue Side without spending 20 levels Grey side? Nice.
Though I may play some more Mercy with the revamp. At least once. Kinda hard to get really pumped over more "Kill Longbow" missions on redside.
Aside: Will miss you, GC, my favorite starting zone for like 6 years now.

Sorry, no one said that and it's not the case. Epics start pretty much where they start now. Atlas or Mercy.

I hope you didn't forget the Caregiver or Pain Specialist day job there.
Is it possible to get Pilot in the Breakout tutorial by logging out next to the black helicopter at the end there?

I wonder if the accolade/5 merits will still be available in the mirror GC.
All badges and plaques will be kept in the echo zone - they're not being moved.

I believe the power might show up, but pretty sure no actual progress is granted.

Yes I know but that doesn't mean it will give out the reward merit once it is in Ouroboros. I am leaning toward yes but the purpose of this thread is to present questions that probably don't have answers yet.|

At the very least all those badges and plaques will be effectively locked away until 25th level.
