  1. The 7-20 range for Kings Row sounds like it'll be a perfect story transition from Atlas Park and the Galaxy City tutorial - we've already seen the Skulls and Hellions in Atlas Park taking advantage of the chaos from the disaster, and I24 looks like it'll be expanding on that in a big way.

    Also, with the overview mentioning BAB and the Regulators putting out a call for more heroes to help them, I think that means that BAB will finally become a contact and get a bigger presence in the game.
  2. The level range for the new blue and red Praetorian content is interesting - it looks like it'll be possible to deal with the aftermath of the war 20 levels before the war starts

    That may be part of a wider plan to make the Praetorian Incarnate content "historical", and replace it in the timeline with the Battalion content.

    Going by the I24 overview, it seems to be in Praetoria.

    HEATs and VEATs aren't included in this round of power customization.

    That's because you're always traveling back in time to the same point - it's like having a mission where you travel back to 1962 and meet President Kennedy - the time point is locked in, and what happens later doesn't affect it.

    It's an easy mistake to make - girls don't play video games, so it's unlikely they'd be invovled in developing them.

    They could all be done in a similar way to the way Bio Armor adds "costume pieces" to different parts of the body with each power.

    The idea behind SSA1 was to update the game world and meta-story - it wasn't meant to be a kill Washington/Cleopatra kind of "what if" situation - it was done in the same way as the removal of old Galaxy City and old Dark Astoria and the defeat of the loyalists.
    Those are all basic building blocks for the foundaion of the meta-story - there's no "maybe" about any of these major events, because without them, writing the meta-story becomes impossible.

    Depending on difficulty, she's a AV or a EB. It takes a lot more than one arrow.
    Unless it hits the knee, which always forces retirement.

    They were both already dead for centuries when the ITF first came out - every singlke NPC you ever see in Cimerora is long dead in the 21st century

    Statesman and Sister Psyche can still be encountered via Ouroboros, when players travel back in time, just like they do when they visit Cimerora.
  17. I hope that these teaser pictures become a regular thing before each Issue - the speculation is fun

  19. The new bodysuit is a good step in the right direction - we're getting closer to some new classic superhero costume parts.

    From the title, I thought that this was going to be a thread to celebrate the humiliating collapse of Bioware's WoW-killing galactic fanfiction extravaganza.

    Or he might put 2 and 2 together and realize that Aurora was acting as if she wasn't his wife at the same time as the whole world was being mindwashed, and that he only met her again when she was in the company of those Primals, including the one who'd taken over the leadership of the Resistance after conveniently failing to protect Vanessa DeVore in the Underground.

    Sometimes, they seem to personify a particular kind of evil distilled into its purest form:



    Sometimes, they are interesting in an intangibly compelling way:




    Fixed.
  24. There's a little bit more Angel info here:

    The few bits of text they say are quite interesting regarding who they might be talking about.
