As for Retro Scifi--yes, you can take this one to the bank. Not a hoax, not an imaginary story: this set will be built for realz based specifically on players' votes. And if it does well, you can count on more and more player-involvement in the future. Neat, huh?

Nice job in getting the voting in the MOTD!

So we're getting a Not A Moon Moon Zone, eh? Is this like some low budget tv studio zone where we can film footage that makes us look like we're on the moon??

Some of those pieces remind me of Major Matt Mason's spacesuit. Thumbs up for accordion tubing details.

GG is certainly infringing upon something...

Game development is a a very iterative process, and whatever the project, we've always tried to think through all the possibilities and then pick the one that'll delight you guys the most. Concept art is all about throwing lots of choices at the wall and seeing which ones are the stickiest. For every good idea that makes it to final, there are always 5-10 more that don't. (Even on this Retro Scifi set, there were several more ideas that we proactively cut for various reasons).

I've always tried my best to involve you guys in the decision-making because, frankly, you know the game at a much deeper level than I do--you're the ones playing it every day, and you know the ins-and-outs. That's why I've always consulted your opinion over the forums and why I'm now doubly excited for the possibilites offered by the player-driven costume set initiative.

I can't think of any other games that have ever done anything like this, and that's really cool. It's historic and unprecidented yet totally in keeping with what we've always tried to do, which is to give you guys a voice in what goes into the game and to give you more and more ways to customize your gaming experience.

Anyway, thanks for playing, and I think you'll be pretty excited to see what's coming next.

Ya know, I've had this idea on the back burner for a while, that is to say it was there but has resonantly crawled of and is now gnawing on my leg, have you ever considered, rather than focusing solely on making new "sets", going back threw you're old ideas and costume sets and making "grab bag's" of new peaces to add to the old sets things that were left out or want to add or new ideas that you are players have thrown out? This way you could add things that you would otherwise never have a place for this would mesh nicely with the release of updated versions of some of the old peaces you have planed.

Just as long as it's not another Praetorian zone, please. Pretty please?

And if it's not the Moonbase, I'll settle for a space station. Given how amazing First Ward looks, I can't wait to see what the art team does with something like a space station.
