Right about the time that the new GR excitement is waring off. Makes no sense to release GR and a free issue at the same time imo.

With less than two months until the launch of City of Heroes Going Rogue™, many of our partners are working to promote Going Rogue.

If you visit the AMD Games site at game.amd.com, you may see some familiar faces. Or check out Razer Zone, where Going Rogue is now one of the featured games

Prices will hit their equilibrium, marketeers will still make money as they always have, and everyone will have better access to goods.

Some prices will go up, some down. I imagine that heroes will have somewhere to sell all those pet recipes now, villains all that salvage that goes to waste. This will make lowbie characters on both sides money. Those that bother to post their stuff will do well. All will be right.

The fools who claimed that loot would ruin the game were wrong;

The idiots who claimed that side-switching would ruin the game were wrong;

The madmen who claimed flashbacks would ruin the game were wrong.

I've was for all these changes. Loot and Flashbacks have become beloved features and I'm sure that side-switching will as well. Strangely, I expect this market merger to simply fade into the consciousness of the game. Folks will come to believe that this is how the game always should have been. All will be right.

Influence and Infamy have always encompassed more than just the “kindness and goodwill of the citizens of Paragon” and the “fear and terror which allows you to extort denizens of the Rogue Isles.” Yes, some if of it is actual resources which can be taken with you. It’s also assumed that if you are leaving one city for another that you would “cash out” and call in every favor you’re due on the way out. This is all handled for you behind the scenes, but from an in-character perspective that’s effectively what’s going on.

If you feel as though some of that “goodwill” and “extortion” earned is something you shouldn’t be able to take with you, stay tuned to Going Rogue information for something in this vein. However, it will not be INF in any fashion.

As for the Market Merge, two recent developments in Primal Earth are responsible for this change:

One is the sudden emergence of a large number of fallen heroes and redeemed villains moving between the spheres of Paragon City and the Rogue Isles, calling neither place home. These powered individuals live in shades of grey, and facilitate the trading of goods and services in secret between the two worlds.

The other is not quite such common knowledge. Out of nowhere, Wentworth’s has gained access to new suppliers, but all suspicions and investigations have been stymied by the immaculate paperwork of their new partners. Likewise, the Black Market has suddenly seen a rise in activity, though no one has looked too closely at the ‘why’ so long as the goods are solid. For now, it remains a mystery.

Hmmm....
