Leandro's View of Kallisti Warf

Only took 8 years for Paragon City to get a legit hospital.

Seriously, though, I wish that were a revamped Independence Port instead of an entirely new zone. Blueside is over saturated as is, it didn't need more zones. Especially city ones.

Place looked cool, though. Not knocking that.

Wow! Thanks, Leandro, for making this, and thanks, GG, for posting it!

Rips my heart right out as usual, but that peaceful, upbeat sound track and the graceful videos actually cheers me up simultaneously.

DIE NCSOFT DIE!

:P Sorry, my fingers have minds of their own.

That's what I thought when I looked. Well actually it was more like "Great another blueside zone villains get borked again" but you get the idea. Co-Op would have been good.

Thanks Leandro, and Golden Girl for posting--heartbreaking, beautiful zone.

Leandro, I hope we can all visit this place one day, even if it takes a little help toward completion.

For some reason it reminds me of Chicago, but cleaner.

My wife and I watched through this and saw some of the details that could have led to interesting story points.

--One of the parks had small tents in it that sort of looked like a craft fair had been set up..

-- Something that almost looks like a small subdivision on the island.

-- A cargo ship sailing by.

-- A hole in the war wall (maybe just a flaw or unfinished graphics at that point)

Thank you so much for posting this Leandro and GG. Such gorgeous work and this might be the only time we ever get to see it.

There are crimes and there are sins. Not seeing this go live is a sin.

I'm trying to work out where it'd be placed on the map - the most logical position seems to be between Siren's Call ands Atlas Park.

The level range is hard to work out - one possible one might be 20+, if it's intended to continue the new content path that's been set up from Atlas through Kings Row

*Watches video*

My thoughts while watching this ...

1: Wow... what a great zone!!!

2: It would be great if a bunch of meteors took out Independence Port, or invasion forces took it over, and this is what Paragon City opened up to replace it.

Thanks for posting this GG.

This zone is gorgeous, it makes me even sadder to know that we will never see this zone anywhere else except in that video. I recall a thread about where we would live in Paragon City and I think I put Kallisti Wharf as one of my favorite zones.


I will miss you City of Heroes..

Beautiful.

See, if we had another issue or two, maybe every zone in CoH could look that good. Praetoria changed what I thought of the game engine, it looked like it had caught up with the new mmo's out there, and I was instantly hooked. Goes to show you we really did have an amazing developement staff, to take a 8 year old (or what? 10 years counting development) game engine and produce something as amazing as Praetoria.

I hope they all find work, I really do. But getting their PS jobs back would be good too

I don't know how you could possibly conclude that from the video.

Mainly because the person who talked about Kallisti Wharf before had his post nuked, so I was trying to avoid attention here. But since this thread is already here... Click for larger images:







I didn't show the middle of the area in the video because it's REALLY incomplete (floating in the water, missing buildings including what I believe would have been the Vanguard HQ, unfinished geometry) and the *other* side of the area looks completely different (industrial, but also gorgeous). I'm going to show it off some more in my next video.

That person is misinformed. It's not on Test. The assets exist on Beta, but not as a city zone.

Ah, cheers Leo..I thought that might have been the case. Was about to boot up Test and hunt for it. lol.
Nice looking zone..but..as other's have said, 'another' zone for blue? With so many almost dead?

They sure love their lil water trenches here...can see quite a few buildins from the new AP also.

What are those water lumpy things, when you fly nearish to the outdoor lake (middle of imp city clone)? Is it just not formed, or something else?

Hospital looks great..the big yellow logo looks awesome!

My big question is: how the heck did you get there?

Can you give me a timestamp in the video? I'm not sure what you mean. There's an outdoor lake in the park with white tents nearby, is that it?

The other side of the zone has a completely different look, and it has its own hospital. Here's some pics of that; click for larger images:

No @#$%! That is freakin' beautiful! I wonder what kind of villain groups would have populated it?
How can I see this for myself?
