Who will Die: Before it's too late...

To Rednames:

Is it possible to set up ANY kind of system where the players get to determine "Who Will Die?" A vote in altering the course of the game's lore is certainly something worth money to me (although, full disclosure, I'm a VIP).

Preferably something like: in the penultimate mission, the mission holder gets dialogue with each of the Phalanx or Surviving 8, and chooses one to perform a Heroic Sacrifice? Or Redside, gets to push the button on one before the climactic rescue/malfunction? The resulting 'votes' would be tallied and the aftermath dealt with in the final mission...

Heck, I'll take buying votes in the store, a forum poll, anything.

If we can get a storyline a year where we can divert the path of the future, I beleive that will generate enormous good will (and revenue) for the game: who else does that?

If I can briefly mention other companies without being modded, I'll just drop AEG, that did it with a tabletop game, LARP, and card game (even when the players found an unexpected Third Option), and Microsoft that did it (for a while) with an MMO.

...please?

To Players: Do you care Who will Die? Do you want a say in this storyline or future storylines?

I think on one of the UStrems, Posi said they knew Who Would Die before they even started writing the missions (IIRC).

We've already determined the story, so someone's death is, as they may say, destined to occur.

We do, however, have other plans for Community involvement with the story/lore later down the road.

Stay tuned!

Fair enough, and looking forward to it!

Thank you for replying

I just want to make a character called James... for the final mission. So my team-mates can inform my toon that said said signature character has expired

So what's left to do? Go here and win a load of inf!

Got it in one, Jasra.

We're all gonna die.

One day, you'll be logged into CoH, whether in a zone or a trial or in a mission or whatever. All of a sudden and all at once, all players and all critters everywhere will have their HP set to zero. You won't be able to rez, or go to the hospital, or to your base.

Everyone dies!!!
