SSA #7 Story Discussion ** SPOILERS **

This is from a redside perspective

First mission: You go back to the Cimerora temple to locate Wade, or find evidence. Arachnos is there first. You put the boot to Ghost widow, then talk to Scirocco and he gives you the knowledge that Wade is in the shadow shard.

Second mission: You hit the shadow shard. Kill Ruladak, talk to Faathim, (who has unique dialogue if you have his badge), he tells you Wade is on an Island in the Pacific.

Mission three. You get to the Island and can talk to a few of the heroes you've dealt with, such as Penelope Yin and Lord Recluse. You go topside and you see a bunch of FLOATING SHIPS surrounding a massive shield covering the island. You go into one of the other ships, either flying or hopping from ship to ship. You get the info that you are gonna need a LOT of firepower to break the shield.

Mission 4: Where are you gonna get firepower? Warburg. You get there, and Malta has tried to take over. You fight Malta and a bunch of tanks with sapper technology, and get control of the nukes. Short mission

mission 5: During all this, Wade's island has begun floating. It is now in the upper atmosphere and he is summoning Rularuu. You go INTO SPAAAAAACE, and fight a bunch of soldiers of Ru, then finally Rularuu wade.

Epilogue: Press conference. Questions asked are "Why did you save the world" and "Who will we look to now that statesman is gone" and, even as a villain, I could say "I will protect you." As you walk out, Manticore says he "Knows your true nature" and attacks. You beat him down. You get a few "Where are they now" scenes, Posi is leader of the Phalanx, Penelope has joined, few other inconsequential things.

THE END

Also, Wade is a whiny pancake who just wanted to be "Free", and Lady grey is torturing all the information about Rularuu out of him

one reminder, in the last fight, penny is by the portal, apparently missed a cue and kinda needed her in phase 2 of the last battle. beyond that, nice overall tie up. no red green blue ending nonsense, just a good, old fashioned butt kicking :P

also, while im sure others will be happy with spaace, i had a different drool moment.. tanks..i LOVE smashing stuff with rian, and if you time it right, the last room with multiple tanks can detonate each other...one vorpal judgement made rian a one man jerry bruckheimer film. happy. also, glad lord recluse got his moment in the spotlight, rian may have upstaged him, but he got the punch up he deserved. also glad to see lady grey get active again, we need more of her.

i dont think they made that map just as a one off, lets put it that way. doubt any producer would use that many resources without future plans for it( see the halloween dog) so yeah, all those who have wanted space, id not be surprised if we go into space again.

oh and yeah, wade did drop recluse pretty fast, looks like he didnt slot his destiny powers

one complaint, the apocolyptic beam, id have liked to see it fire, it seemed it was either nothing or a big screen-full of effect and rian faceplanting, i want a beam dangett.

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

Did anyone else see Wade beat down Lord Recluse while you were still at full health...I laughed so hard...I don't think he brought his own purples. I also lost Black Scorpion in the earlier mission when I jumped on top of a tank to kick it proper and he get hit with the deathsplosion.


Also I got to kicksplode a handfull of tanks ^_^. The tank room made my Vorpal Judgement hilariously explosive.

Just by reading (haven't run the villain one yet), everything is pretty much the same except for how the various heroes/villains treat you.

The fact my Hero could attack the conference was amusing.

I did like how they let us choose if we wanted Recluse and the Patrons to come along. Not sure what would have happened if I said no, though.

Nothing. Not even a badge.

Bah to Rula-Wade. Wade-laruu sounds better.

So, curiosity on two things.

Is it possible for SSers to get up the ships?

What happens if you get smacked with the Apocalypse Beam?

Also, I am very glad for boost range and snipes, since while waiting to be ported out in mission 3, some of the natterlings decided to hide outside of normal snipe range and promptly sit there and do nothing.

I meant getting nothing for doing the last mish solo.

Did anyone else not get any particle effects for Wade's "Apocalypse Blasts"?

Kinda spoiled the intensity of the battles when there wasn't anything HUGE AND LOUD to hide in the bubble from.

That said, I LOVE the press conference! That was my favorite part of this ENTIRE ARC. If a redname is reading this, PLEASE add more things like that in for later arcs.

The blast was like a huge fireball - it kinda blocked the whole screen
