"Dark Armor is a complete waste as a tanking set."
Very true
as Ood Sigma said....We will sing to you, Doctor. The universe will sing you to your sleep. This song is ending. But the story never ends.
Things Im most looking forward to with I21
Being able to stop paying for my alt account and still being able to play it
Seeing new players and returning players
New costume pieces
New powersets
VIP server (I wont leave Virtue but I will be on the VIP server some)
Signature Story Arcs !
And the thing Im most looking forward to is the new business model being a big success for Paragon so that they can continue to fund and pump out more costume pieces, powersets, and story arcs to extend the life of the game.
Virtue Server Forever !

There is no "goodbye sewers" as it's still gonna be there. The trial is just there as an added option to folks that want to do something different.
And how is there more Incarnate Grind when they add in another trial, allowing you more variety in what you can do to get merits and actually increasing the daily amount of merits you can get because of this?
Also, devs haven't promised anything in terms of bases and PvP, so you can't say that's something that will be coming to us.

As to the second, I don't have a link to the pics themselves as they were in an actual, physical magazine. You'll have to buy the 'zine yourself. There was a topic floating around on the boards discussing it, though. You can look for that and see peoples' responses.
As to the first point, I have no idea what kind of point you're trying to make, but we have double the end game trials with I21 than we did when trials first launched. They're working on more to do as we speak, it just takes time. So there's no reason to complain aside from just wanting to complain.

One question I have - Since Galaxy city is going bye bye, as we used to know it *sniffles* ..Where will we go to respec? Atlas Park with its new revamp? The guy, something Wolf...was in GC.
-Pogoman, Master of Kick-Fu
-Co-Leader and recruiting officer of the Virtue Honor Guard
- lvl 50 ma/sr scrapper
-Ace O' Diamonds lvl 50 fire/rad controller
and waaaay to many other alts to mention right now
Also, approximate time of release date?

What about the badges that use to be in gc?

You can get all those old badges by going to GC via Ouro. Jack Wolfe has more than likely been moved to Atlas Park, while the devs have officially confirmed that the Kheldian contact in GC will be moved as well.
Ok. at first i was a rage quiter.but reviewing other mmos that gone f2p its not that bad i kinda like 2 right now its a lot cheaper to play and still some content
Here are the pros :
More players
More money for Company so wont raise my subscription fees
I can line item veto pieces that i want for my toons
If i dont have cash i can still play
Here are the cons ( but of course Paragon being as clever as they are covered most of these)
Lot of people on servers but of course its all good because we have a VIP server and vips have first shot at getting on a server
Lot of lag- and thats stress test is going on
Vet rewards to paragon reward- is nothing you actually get more stuff than vet
Goodbye Galaxy- but get first ward and its now a tutorial
Goodbye lvl 1-10 in sewer as a lowbie- but we get a lowbie league tf!
More incarnate grind -- but its almost over then time to work on bases and pvp
Overall not the best issue but not the worst...worst IMHO was issue 13 Best was issue 7
So what are things you find most pro and most con about issue 21
