So when they used your colors and inverted them (which they did), the pink that was unused came to life, and the brown went away.

    All your pieces are perfectly inverted color-wise. As far as I can see, anyway.
    Oh hells, that's it... that shade of pink is the secondary color for the jacket and pants (I forget why... probably randomly picked by default). Ok, I need to fix that before continuing the arc... or maybe just use a different costume.
  2. Nope... the first Mirror Me was a perfect match. The second looks like they swapped the colors on the hat, and switched the jacket to pink, which may be a complementary color to brown or something? It may just be random. The shirt, shoulderpads, and boots match.
  3. I'm only a few missions into the Hero side arc, and it's very soloable. This is the second Mirror Me I met, and he was a little challenge, but I'm running on +0, +0, with no bosses.

    They use some new technology in the missions that's pretty cool. I hope to see more of this.
  4. but this is ridiculous!



    The horror... the horror!

    w00t.. thanks, GP! See you at 8 tonight.

    Burned as in, no one else took him as a contact so we end up doing Kalinda only.
  7. I just saw that you're taking Burke and not Kalinda... I already took her. I get burned so many times taking him that I tend to avoid it.

    Do you want to try to do both or should I just re-roll and take Burke?
  8. I don't see why shinies and Isos are mutually exclusive. Don't the new Doppleganger arcs start at 25? Let's do those tonight!

    Victory is Live

    Nah, Isos will be doing the new content!

    I've got my two DS MMs rolled up, and I customized the pistols on my main DP Blaster.

  13. Flux was so right... as was EB.

    That's the definition of fanboyism.

    I guess I'll take what I can get.

    At this point I'm looking for clarity, not platitudes. I've been trying to manage expectations about GR, and the devs just threw more fuel on the fire.

    Also... CoH and CoV were both 1-40 when they came out (and CoH had more options, too), not 1-50. So I'm not sure if that was ever a real expectation.
    I'd be elated if we had 1-40 content in GR, but it isn't happening. The fact that they will not have radio missions means they don't feel the need to fill in a content gap.

    I expect a tight storyline from 1-20, sideswitching content after that, Incarnate content for the 50 crowd, and maybe a few Praetorian TFs here and there to spice things up as far as "extra" content goes.
  17. I may be down for this upcoming VFN, but I have no idea what I'll bring as nothing is specced for PvPeh.
  18. Are Stalkers allowed at VFN?
  19. I'll probably be rolling two DS MMs since my status in an upcoming weekly group is uncertain, so I'm in. I may not make it right at 8, but no later than 8:30.
  20. In... with my Pistolero. He has the original, but I guess since he doesn't have TFC yet he'll need the new hotness.
  21. I doubt we would have received a response for either of those questions.

    That's not how it works.

    It's:

    Villain->Rogue->Hero->Vigilante->Back to Villain

    One step each way. Once you're on the other side, it's only two steps to come back.
  23. I posted 10 questions, six of my own, and four from others on the Going Rogue Forums. Two of mine were answered and one of those I posted from the forum.

    I tried to focus on questions that keep coming up in the GR forums.

    GP: I'm not being pessimistic, I'm being a realist.

    Right now the game's in the best shape it's ever been. Dual Pistols is easily the best set ever created, and Demon Summoning looks to be the best looking MM set (I don't know how it performs as of now). I17 is hitting on Wednesday will Ultra Mode, New Arcs, Access to DS, New Badges, New Emotes, QoL Updates, and (most importantly) New Custom Pistols!

    Going Rogue will be out in a few short months, and we have a good handle on how cool it will be, but based on what we've heard, you won't be able to take a toon from 1 to 50 on Praetorian content alone. That's just about the single disappointment I have with the game right now.

    I think the unannounced content WW and the Devs are alluding to may be a few Praetorian TFs, but I doubt they will have isolated arcs post-20. It doesn't make sense, and if it were a large amount of content I think we would have heard about it by now.

    So yes, I'm frustrated by some of the answers given in the Q&A, but that doesn't mean I'm not the CoX Fanboi you know and love.
