Any new tidbits from the coffee talk?
At the time, this statement was true. Arbiter Hawk put in a massive amount of extra work to get the nuke changes into Issue 24 which we were then able to announce after the fact.

The main problem is that the stuff that was seen in the I23 beta wasn't there in the I22 beta - so I think it's understandable that it'd be thought of as some early work on something new.

Then I'll say "What is true as of this time is not always true later".
And sure, no new AT. It was clearly not a standard AT. And work may be done or may be shelved for the moment.
Well, there is one that juuuuust barely blasted its head out into the open. Despite what I or most people would assume, it didn't really have much kick to it. I assume acquiring that particular information is something of an art, though.

I'd go with, "The devs work hard to provide what the playerbase wants, even if it is sometimes not on the schedule."

Hey, I joked about Horses a whole 2 minutes before your post! Get your own shtick!
We're getting a horse skill power pool? Does that mean we finally get to have ponies?

Running that through a dev^H^H^Hcommunity relations translator, that could be technically (brtually?) true in both the cases that said ATs have been shelved, or that they're already finished...
oh! it must be wind blast!
;D
Curse my gaming youth! Your post reminded me of Sonic Drowning lol.

I don't think the Dev's outright lie, but like any good politician or advertising agency, they don't necessarily give you the whole truth. Partial, or even non committal information, can still be true "at that moment" even if it doesn't give you the whole picture. (Yes: they were working on crash-less nukes, but at that time: no, they weren't planning on them for i24. No lie, but partial information.)
That partial information can also send you off on the wrong path, whether intentional or not, and they aren't required to correct "you" when it does. Obfuscation works in many, many ways.

If Masterminds didn't suck, they'd be the most powerful AT in the game.
Perhaps a spoonerism will work better? Worce of Fill?

If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-
Also, what I said was brutally honest. We are not working on new AT's.
