Anything nifty for 4th of July? (3rd since tomorrow is Tuesday)
He mentioned they would do it on one of the weekly livestreams. They started the trend with Staff Fighting.

Would be nice if it was a 2 week warning. Some of us dont get paid every week. But then again, with bio armor getting destroyed I dont really have anything I'm looking forward to anyway. Maybe rad armor will be cool.
Generally something has to be on beta for at least 6 weeks before release. Water Blast has been there for about 4.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the set, just that it's highly unlikely to release prior to the producers' schedule.

(I'd also imagine that the majority of people--at least in the US--get paid either every other week or twice a month, as opposed to weekly)

Ignoring all the other stuff, and going back to the original question:
You know what would be cool? A flag (complete with cape physics) as a weapon for staff melee. An American one for you guys, and a Canadian one too, since Canada Day is only a couple days earlier. Maybe even throw in a few other major flags for heroes from other countries. Charge 80 points per flag, and include two emotes with each: /em salute_country (pull out [country]'s flag, brace it with one hand and salute with the other) and /em wave_country (pull out [country]'s flag and wave it). Clearly note that you must purchase staff fighting to use it as a weapon, otherwise, only the emotes are unlocked.
I know Americans have some rather extensive rules about how the flag can and cannot be used. If the above violates any of them, forget I suggested it.

That is cool. But doubt it could be done unless the Dev's already had the idea and pre planned.

So yeah... They'd have had to have already come up with the idea and started working on it weeks, if not months, ago. But if they didn't... maybe next year? ;D

Maybe more if that era type of stuff (guns swords)
Having a "playing marching drum" kinda what they had then kinda drum emote.
Maybe MOAR firework stuff? Adding to the sparkle, bloom, flair we have

That's what I expect it to be, too. There was an offhand comment a while ago (on a Coffee Talk, maybe?) about "historical" hairstyles... maybe we're getting a powdered wig too?
I hope there's some nifty sales too, but if there are, I hope they're not the 24 hour variety, because I have less than 400 points left, and I don't get paid until Thursday.

Virtue may have dropped the ball for the 4th but come to my 3rd annual Fireworks on Victory! Fun, prizes, fireworks! The awesomeness starts at 6:30pm Eastern. Go here

But seriously...if Zwill sticks to his word they said they'd give a week's warning before Water Blast is released...so...unless <24 hours counts for a week's notice....

We don' need no stinkin' signatures!
I think it could be a few of events items now out of stock like Pocket D pack or Halloween... On sale or something.
Nothing new I guess.
