I like how they included a whole bunch of stuff thats not in Issue 22 in the official trailer, while simultaneously giving the bulk of whats actually IN Issue 22 comparitavely little screen time.

I noticed that it was showing a lot of stuff not in the initial release. That will only raise the "Where are the staffs?" and such comments in broadcasts for the next week or so for whatever is missing.

I put both videos on my blog -- together they give the whole story. Great one as always Samuraiko!

There was a bug preventing them from functioning on live. This is currently slated to be fixed in the first patch following today's launch. IOTW, very soon.

Can the same be said for Staff Fighting?

The trailer has a post date of 2/27. It's 3/6. Maybe something happened in between?

That's when they actually uploaded it to YouTube. Today is when they made it live. This way, in case YouTube had unscheduled maintenance today or something, they'd still be able to launch the video because it was already in the system.

Did Positron voice the red guy in glasses? I swear he sounds familiar.

No - Staff Fighting was never scheduled to go live with I22 - just like Titan Weapons was never scheduled to go live with I21.
And the same will happen with the I23 beta, when they test whatever power sets are coming after I23 during the I23 beta.

The youtube trailer of 'Issue 22 is live' clearly shows staff melee at the end, that looks really confusing discovering it aint in the game yet. Why put it in the movie in the first place if it 'was never scheduled to go live with I22' in the 'I22 goes live trailer'?

To keep us around and waiting, I guess.

Disappointed, not that I expected any different. Nice of them to use the sets they never intended to release with new issue as part of the advertisement for it....... I miss the false advertisement laws.

Looking forward to the solo incarnate tho. Finally can incarnate my 50s on the dead servers. ;D

Just did new incarnate stuff. yep not much goodness in this release.

Dev's With all the Great new content, Please!! dont forget to fix the bugs with the old content. There is a storm a brewing because they are not getting fixed. If its a problem that no one is reporting them? Well Maybe you need to look at your tech support then..

So, is it just me, or does "Red Hero's" civilian ID remind anyone else of Kansas' favorite fictional adopted son. (laden with copywright issues)

You'll get Staff Fighting in a Tuesday release in a few weeks. Stop crying girls. It'll come when it comes.
