Also, while I don't think he's bad, this seems like as good a place as any to raise something that continues to mystify me. Where did this worship of Joss Whedon in geekdom come from, given that similarly one-note content producers get unfairly savaged all the time by the geekdom fanbase? The man's abilities are vastly, vastly overrated. That doesn't mean he isn't skilled, though. -
Jewelery is a problem because of a lack of nodes on the basic avatar to attach extra pieces.

Quote:I get those 2 styles mixed upOriginally Posted by mousedroid
Um... no it wasn't. Cyberpunk was teased to us at the recent Summit, but the partly designed costume set was "Post-apocalyptic."

There's more Praetoria in I24

Eew. How do you know he's not the stalker type? o.o

Foreshadow, Maelstrom and Serpent Drummer... that's all I have to say! Let your imaginations run rampant!

Maelstrom's personality *completely* turns me off. He's an arrogant "oh poor me" jerk.

Quote:In the meta-story, the Resistance are the right side, and Tyrant is in the wrong - with the world ruled by an immortal who thinks he knows what's best for everyone, and will use mass murder, torture, slavery, brain-washing, thought police, propaganda an so on to enforce what's "best" for everyone, there's no chance of changing the system without an armed uprising - which is why the loyalist path has been always been a dead end since GR was first developed.Originally Posted by T_Immortalus
The developers just arbitrarily assigned Loyalists as villains, no matter how good they are or what they do in the story, probably because Emperor Cole is meant to be "the big bad villain" and they're "technically, on his side".
I don't like it either as I always choose Loyalist, because I want peace and to keep the people safe and make Praetoria the utopia it has moved away from, and I like to do the right thing always.
At best, a "good" loyalist will be like a cop in Berlin in the 30s - they'll stop some genuine criminals, but the longer they're in the job and the higher up the ranks they rise, the more they get to see what the system is really like. -
There was a missed /quote in there

4? I only found two. Graham Easton, and Laura Lockhart. What are the other 2?

The dev suggestion of KR as a perma-night zone might be a bit extreme, but making it a perma-rain zone would be awesome - if they could find a way to transfer the rain from mission maps to whole zones
It'd be a way to make it more visually unique, but without needing an explanation like perma-night would need.
Another option - or one that could be used along with perma-rain - would be to turn down the brightness of the KR war walls - plus using the newer glow tech to make more neon signs. -
The event runs for the whole of May.

Nemesis was on Virtue last night, speaking via admin chat - he answered questions about ponies

For most T9s, I think that access to the whole game, the Incarnate system, free zone content, free power sets and free costume sets are probably a bigger hook than 2-3 exclusive costume sets a year.
If they want to keep them vaguely exclusive, just make them free for T9s, 75% off for 4 year vets, 50% off for 3 year vets, 25% off for 2 year vets, and 800 points for everyone else. -
Quote:What was the spoiler?Originally Posted by Baler
Wow, thanks for dropping the spoilery I23 tidbit in what I assumed would be discussion of the I22 story arcs as mentioned in the title. Not everyone plays in the Betas and some of us prefer to learn what is new in an issue when it goes live.

Quote:Mecha - the new free T9 VIP only costume set, coming in I23Originally Posted by RogerWilco
Yeah. I'm a relatively new player (Xmas 2011), and I have no clue what half the options are supposed to mean.
Right now I've stopped trying to fill in the survey. I came to this thread in the hope it had more information, I have read all the posts. Someone explained Amplifiers after the post by Gorgar quoted above.
I'm stuck on page 1, as I don't know what the options mean, and I can only make a reasonable guess for the costume suggestions
Chain Mail - the new costume set in I23, free to VIPs, buyable by freebies in the market.
Cyberpunk - a costume set chosen and partly designed by the players at the recent Player Summit.
Halloween II - there was a Halloween costuem pack last year, so this could eb a secodn one, but it could also mean an expanded halloween event.
Night Ward - the new 30-40 Paretorian zone coming in I23 - free to VIPs, buyable by freebies in the market.
It's a "ghost" version of First Ward.
Summer Blockbuster - a new summer event, starting this year, and based around a movie theme, with players playing out versions of the movies on shwo in Paragon city.
Hybrid Slot - the 6th new power pool from the Incarnate endgame system, coming in I23, and available only to VIPs. -

Quote:Well, it's going to be revamped - but it might not be the next oneOriginally Posted by ShadowMoka
Independence Port is the next guaranteed revamped zone.

As an alternative starting zone or as the follow on from Atlas, Kings Row needs a revamp, graphics and content - probably the only gemoetrical changes would be the newer style trees and bushes, but the old building and street textures should be switched for sharper higher resolution ones.
Content-wise, the old launch content there can be shifted to Ouroboros, and replaced with the new post-GR style of dynamic joined-up storytelling - maybe with a slight increase in the level range of the zone.
Positron has mentioned that he's had his eye on a KR revamp to make the transition from Atlas smoother, so I think that there's a pretty good chance that it'll be getting some kind of improvement eventually. -

Though I do wish they'd quit bringing in player made up ideas and running with them.

The adblock sounds like a great idea.
