A new week dawns.

So, last week we got the first of the sig story arcs. Exciting for some, not so much for others.

This week I am again hoping for Street Justice, or more costume options. I have also realized that Powers and Costumes are about the only thing that are going to get me to part with my points.

I did purchase the new aura last week, but have no characters that I want to use it on. I may need it at some point though, and it is better to have it in reserve.

I don't expect Street Justice for a couple of weeks. Maybe november.


When something good happens to me, I can never enjoy it....
I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...


BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!

They said Q4, which is Oct-Dec. This sounds like a reasonable guess to me.

Still looking forward to Titan Weapons, hopefully shortly after Street Justice arrives

I am not expecting to get Titan Weapons this year, but I would LOVE to be wrong. I agree about Street Justice though. I think they are holding on to it till f2p goes live and new f2p accounts can be made.

Honestly what I REALLY want is the CoT costume set. I sadly don't expect to see much till 21.5 though. :/

I want Gunslinger , CoT costume sets or Street fighting.
Or new cool backpacks.
I only spend points in costumes and powers.

I think it depends on if there's a long-term plan for new power sets - like they might be looking to release one every quarter for the next few years, and have a lot of them planned out - but if they've only planned out a few, they could release them quite soon after each other.

I think we're supposed to get some sort of announcement today, based on Z saying something to that effect (to someone off-camera) during the downtime UStream. My guess, from something he said "to the audience" immediately after, is that it's going to be Redacted Melee.

We'll get the new power sets spaced far enough apart that VIPs can get them with points they've accrued in between releases. I can all but guarantee that.

We have Beam Rifle already, we'll get Street Justice in probably another month (or at least after everyone's September billing date has passed). Titan Weapons will probably show up around January, and Staff Fighting will appear around March.

I could be wrong, but it makes perfect sense for the VIPs to be able to technically get those sets for free upon release, even though they are paying points for them like anyone else.

I don't know, I wouldn't mind if they release more power sets than I can afford to buy out of my stipend. The more and faster they come out, the better.

This is a problem I would like to have also.

This is where I stand also.

Titan Weapons is still gonna be a bit longer. It was never tested in beta. SJ is the only power set left from the beta that has yet to be released.

This, I know. But thanks for pointing out the obvious, despite my unbridled and apparently unchecked optimism

Right, new releases. Honestly, there isn't a whole lot I care about between here and Titanic Weapons. The closer this gets, the less interested I am about anything else. Street Justice, when that comes out, will go a great way towards holding my attention just because I have a very cool concept for it, but ultimately, I want my Titanic Weapons. And I hope there's a decent glowing and/or energy tech sword in there, like bAss made a while back. Fingers crossed.

I just want Street Justice to hurry up and come out already. I won't go off on one about my opinion on marketing and whoever is deciding it is 'right' to delay, but rest assured I'm not amused with it.

Sam, I find it hard to believe that you are not excited by new costume options. Shoot, I am as excited about new costumes as I am new powers. I am banking points for fear that I will not have enough to buy one or the other when they are released.

If costume slots go on sale, I know what I'm buying me as a birthday present...


The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise. ; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

This. I'm barely playing at this point. When StJ comes out I'll start again. Not that they care I suppose, they're getting my sub money either way.

I just don't see the point of the extra costume slots when you can save/load costumes quickly and easily.

Edit: Sales end in 2.5 hours. I am excited to see what comes up next... hopefully the points and rewards token I'm owed for my subscription's renewal on the 21st...

The only thing I'm really looking forward to is seeing what the CoT costumes will be like. Street Justice would be neat and all, I would make an Ice Armour Tank to go with it, but I don't got a name and the CoT stuff could be useful for an already existing character. No contest, really.

I'm excited about the new costume options, hell yeah I am! However, I'm excited about Titanic Weapons many times more, and the character who's using many of the new costume pieces - Stardiver - needs a Titanic Weapon in order for me to play her
