Found the Dark Astoria Fog

That isn't fog. That is Mot attempting to influence your character into despair or something.
NCSoft will be getting no more of my money and my GW2 purchase was halted the day of the announcement. I'm a loyal and very profitable customer. I hope to return to giving them all of my money, should CoH survive.
I just went through all the arcs again and it was just in two missions if I recall correctly that had the Mog (Mott fog). One was appropriately present, the other inexplicably. And this is a whole lot better than it was in Beta when a whole bunch of mission inexplicably had the Mog.

Hey, maybe that's what the fog was in the first place!

I remember running into it in a few of the instanced missions, but I don't think it was in *all* of them.

Farewell is like the end

Joking aside though, I really like the effect. That and the tentacle screen effect, and I bet the 'snowstorm' from the last Winter Event is related to the same tech. I really hope they add more 'atmospheric' effects like that in the future. Expanding on these effects may allow for all kinds of 'weather' in Paragon and the Isles without causing video cards to crash and making the servers want to practice seppuku.
I miss the fog too, but that's why I made sure to have the teleporter beacon Echo: Dark Astoria in the base (that now takes 4 to get them all, which once took 9 and didn't have enough to add everything
)Anyway... I think this tech is really cool, and hope they add more effects for various reasons in the zones and in missions as they move forward.

I couldn't agree more.
I'm not sure what to think about this.
The Fog of the old Dark Astoria was zone wide (and in its way, kinda cool, even if it was a graphical "cheat").
The Fog of the new Dark Astoria seems to have left the city/streets ... and moved into all the Instance Missions.
