I tried, I was a subscriber for 6 months back in 2004 and have attempted to return a number of times. But, sadly, just as many of you have difficulty with aspects of my chosen game, Champions Online, there were aspects of CoX I was unable to overcome, primarily the combat system...
But I feel this community is greater than any I've ever encountered, including CO (though I think we're pretty cool too) and if any game in history ever deserved to get rescued from the brink, it's this one. And if it does happen, which I fervently hope occurs, it will all be because of you...
You guys ROCK!
Great job, everyone.
@Kyuu
Fantastic job everyone and well deserved!
Let's do it again! I bet our Paragon Studios friends are hungry again. My Paypal stands at the ready.

Governments have fallen to the power of social media. Gaming companies can too.
I would just buy it outright if I had that kind of money to put out. I would keep these guys working and keep the game on and running till the second coming.
I don't see mention of this in Announcements or in City Life, so I'll risk whatever other duplication there might be.

Bon apetit, Paragons!|
If you happen to be in the area next Wed, 9/26 at 7:00 PM, we're going to be enjoying our dinner from the Community. (Please note, we don't think there was enough to cover all the players who may stop by as well. Unfortunately that means you need to cover your food if you're eating there). Please feel free to stop in, say hi and celebrate over 8 years of super! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Buca-...49741401760887 |
If you're a player in the Mountainview area and you stop by then make sure to post photos afterwards.
I just wanted to say that I love the Devs. I joined this game about 3 weeks after it launched and I know that with out a doubt this is the best team I have ever seen in a game. I really wish and hope to save this game but if it does go dark, I just wanted to let all of you at Paragon Studios know how much it has ment to me that you have worked so hard and diligently to bring forth a game that I have absolutely loved.

If I wasn't stuck in New York tonight (and fighting an evil invasion of aliens within my sinuses, disguised as a common cold) I'd have loved to have joined ya.
And remember... the development team that eats together... stays together! 
Wish you all the best, regardless of when and where.

Well. Abused the fact that I knew where a good chunk of the Paragon guys were gonna be this evening.
Called up the Buca di Beppo where they're having dinner on us and wished them all well.
Got to talk to Zwillinger.
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

I joke around a lot on here and I apparently sometimes come off as a Dev kiss up and I have apparently come off as a whining complainer too...
But I know one thing... I'm an extremely picky video game player and I am someone who adores craftsmanship and artistry.
And I can say with all honesty that this game not only met my extremely picky standards, but this crew of developers and designers are top quality, innovative artists that know fun and kept and maintained great direction towards the game being fun for a wide variety of audiences and that takes a lot of talent, creativity and heart.
And that's the other thing I learned after being here for a short while, this team, development and community, was consistently comprised of passionate people that have a lot of heart. That generally comes from the top-down (in this case, within Paragon Studios, not from above them, obviously).
That is a lot of stuff for me to love and respect.
And, yeah, I would have loved to have swung by.
I very much hope I get another opportunity to hang with these fine craftsman, artists, video-game and community magicians.
Until then... I'll be a bit bummed that I wasn't there...
However, I am glad we could offer you this little celebration, Paragon Studios. You absolutely earned it and more.
Also... some more pictures on their facebook page, for those who haven't seen it.

Makes me wish I had been a member of it...
We can all stand to be a little more awesome to each other, I think.
Except for the fact that... you are a member of it now!
One of us...
