dug, it's my birthday. Couldn't you just let me enjoy the idea for at least an hour before reminding me it's already been done? (And I've only been awake for about 30 minutes anyway...)

This would be a worthwhile attempt to bring PvP back to the game. Though I personally would not participate in it, that does not discount its merit. There's TONS of stuff in the game that I don't play/use, but that I still acknowledge as awesome.
Although, to fight in a Colosseum-inspired arena with my Shield/SS tanker might be too good of an opportunity to pass up...
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
Nah, he rather rain on your parade, because that's what his kind does.
Happy B-day.
Good idea.
I had hoped for a Praetorian "Lost World" style zone (what exactly is the rest of the world "reclaimed" by Hamidon like beyond the sonic wall?) but that doesn't seem to be the trend. A Cimeroran arena would do the trick.

And happy birthday
Have a brilliant day

Happy Birthday.
Great idea, but would be a nightmare to code, knowing how PS would not want to do a half-***** job of this if they ever undertook it.
Still, great stuff.

I LOVE the gang war idea..... BUT.... it NEEDS an AoE Confuse with all the slaves yelling "I'M Spartacus!!!"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY D_R!!!
+1 vote for Paragon Studios to hire you.
Also, if this actually happened, would your promotional video include a CoH reenactment of parts of the chariot race from Ben Hur? Because that's the first thing I thought of when I saw the PvP chariot racing idea.

Chariot racing done a la CoH?? The mind boggles. Tres spiffy, indeed!
The race goes on, Judah...
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
This does sound kind of cool.
Something I noticed that this game lacks is the challenge arena. Basically a series of difficult stages for players to get through. There, you can custom make an enemy to have a specific amount of power, like an AV built specifically to be soloed or a team of EBs with weird effects.
It is labor-intensive on the powers division, but nonetheless awesome.

i think PS is crazy for not hiring DR. her videos are better imo than PS videos.
that is why i enjoy always waiting for a new video from DR.

Well, I think it'd be pretty cool as PvE stuff, to be honest. Maybe both?
I'd rather have a solo trial, from the cell beneath the arena, to fighting hordes of gladiators to fighting giant beasts and monsters...
I'm in!!
And Happy Birthday!

Or they could be opening us up for something truly horrific.
Like this.
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.
First off, Happy Birthday Week, Dark_Respite!
Secondly, while this will probably remain in the "I wish!" category, it sure makes for an epic wish...
We've got Titan Weapons...
We've got wolves...
Now we've got Ligers and Lions...
And soon we'll have Staves...
And panthers...
Could it be that we'll soon have...
"Archaelogists in Cimerora have discovered the remains of a vast structure where brave warriors battled wild animals for the amusement of the mob..."
Travel back to the height of Cimerora's power and participate in the first of the newest trials - GLADIATOR. Participate alone or rally with your fellow warriors against the most brutal challenges devised for the amusement of Imperious and his advisors. (The first truly scalable event - whether single player or 24-person league - WITH difficulty settings!)
Unlock new badges and new weapons, gain new titles based on your wins (or losses) in the Colosseum, and earn vanity pets (you've beaten them, they submit to your will) for your strength and daring!
For those more interested in speed and cunning than brute strength, head to the Circus Maximus for CHARIOT RACING! Beat the time set by Imperious' champions as you race the Circus' track, or compete against your fellow entrants. Weapons may not be allowed in the Circus, but those whips can be awfully deadly, and with more than horses available for your chariots, things can turn ugly on the track in no time...
But Romulus and his forces are waiting in the wings to invade, and not everyone in the arena fights fair...
