I Remember….

…The end of Beta, when the Devs controlled the invading Rikti and we were pushed all the way back to the Hospital; marshaling our forces in the lobby to burst out and get a beach-head on the courtyard steps.

…The Beta Tutorial zone stress test, when the bad guys were all spawning behind the map, and while waiting for the Devs, everyone pulled out a newspaper. A 100+ hero’s lining the streets of Outbreak all reading the newspaper.

… Pocket D when it was just the Paragon Dance Club in an old warehouse

… The Chat Channel Wars that ended up in the creation of VirtueUnited

…Working for weeks to finally pull off the 9 minute Nuke Hamidon Raid

…Trains only going to the next stop

… Missions not having internal doors

… Tanks herding entire zones into a single dumpster

…Gemini Park

… Dinging 50 on my first character and going back to Ms. Liberty for the honors, since that’s where it all started.

… A million different teams of heroes, all working together for the common good.

I remember the first Winter Lord Invasion.
When Falls could still Kill you.
Hover being slower than walking.
Tankers only having one toggle
Unyielding Stance
Empaths being the best defender
The first Kheldians
Apex and War Witch, together again at last
The super-secret Mercy Island
the launch of Siren's Call
ED, and the Global Defense Nerf
Running all the task forces in the game, back to back, over the course of a weekend.
old-school hami raids.


You can't spell Slaughter without laughter

All your gonna do is just farm behemoths anyways.

My thoughts on November 30.
