    I did say we should have an announcement of some sort this week, and I'll stick by that. What will it be? You'll have to wait and find out. I'd love to give it to you now, but we've got to wait until the appropriate time.

    Looking forward to being able to give you more info,
    DAMN YOU MODERATOR OH EIGHT!



    EDIT: FPARN, gief info naow, etc.

    EDIT2: Appropriate time = Valentines event?

    As good as this news will be - It's not much for people with old rigs, it has still been a long time without any real news about GR.

    In other words.

    SHUT UP. Today's rumors ARE NEVER NEWS.
    Here's a rumour for you that will not be news: The PO bonus is a pair of Auras.

    Not really.
  6. Can't wait for the GR Pre-Order. I hope we can use the [Removed]s before the game comes out

    From the speed you were handing them out at the Union invasion, I'm guessing you had a magical title macro button next to your Master At Arms button?

  9. So, what actually happened? Did they spawn a ton of Carnies?

    Thanks!

    I'm curious as to how this happened though? Were you busy selecting me as a beta participant and accidentally broke the website or?...
  11. Ok, this is actually really annoying, why can't we access the US website anymore?
  12. Oh look, it's me! The big stone guy in the fashionable white costume

    They've only addressed to US servers at this point, as well. <3
    Oh no, it's a running joke now, you should've seen the conversations we had during/after the Union invasion
  14. Carnies hate Europe too? Bah!

    Anyway, speculation: They are planning a counter offensive to the Rikti!
  15. So, what about something like a 48 hour warning?

    Perhaps they could even throw it on the front page of the website - "Rikti Detected heading towards server X! Be prepared at 6pm at Founders Falls & St. Martial!" With a little countdown timer underneath it.

    Conjecture? Or does it fit to well since we havent seen anything about that universe's Recluse.
    Hamidon is called Hamidon because the scientist that created the DE was called Hamidon. Or something like that anyway.

    Either way, he can't be Recluse.

    There was an uproar when they originally put the patriot badge next to the flag on City Hall.
    I can't find a picture of it, but it was blue with the paragon city seal in the middle.

    And the main reason that it's a US flag is that Paragon City, regardless of which country you're playing the game from, is set in Rhode Island, on the Continental United States of America. Which means it would be nonsensical to have the flag of any other nation up there.
    The Asian version of the game had a different flag
  19. So, they wanted feedback but I haven't seen much being posted aside from "It's awesome" (even though it was awesome! ), so I thought I'd start a thread for it.

    Stuff I would like to see:
    1. A few Vanguard spawning on our side. Even though we won, it doesn't make sense for them to not put any forces forward to defend their own depots and other places. A couple of HVASs would just be awesome

    2. Dropships - From what I heard, they did have them on last weeks raid, but I didn't see any on Union on Friday, so they may have been removed

    3. The sky needs to go Green and the WWs need to go down like the normal invasions (perhaps even run a normal invasion at the same time, to provide the atmosphere, extra rikti, dropships, and extra badges)

    4. Server wide announcements on the Admin channel (perhaps do it on all servers in the server group, as some people have characters on multiple servers) - One of the biggest complaints I have seen is people saying they had no idea it was going on, and this would

      And, although it's probably going to be here eventually....

    5. Motherships! Motherships! Motherships!

    EDIT: Also, please state what server you were on and zone you were in. I was in FF on Union on Friday.

    ZOMG! Beta invite invasion!

    And the Rikti weren't very stealthy in their approach, some of us had advanced warning

    EDIT: One more suggestion, announce it on the Admin channel so everyone can see it.

    Something tells me the Rikti are not done yet... just sayin
    Well of course they aren't, despite how awesome the event was in itself, the build up has to be for something

    Oh and, Resistance Avatar and Loyalist Signature? Double agents are meant to be secretive
  22. That was seriously awesome, probably one of the funnest things I've done in this game. Come back and do it again next week

    I was playing with two friends who only just started playing on Wednesday. They had a raid on (eww) WoW to go to at 7:30, but they stayed for the invasion instead

    And we noticed a small bug: They were getting Vanguard Merits from the Master at Arms (and only him), but they are level 12 and don't have the badge prerequisite.

    EDIT: Small suggestion: Spawn some combat-enable Vanguard guys outside the depot.

    Man, I hope these pieces (and the Preatorian Clockwork ones) are available from the get-go and don't have to be unlocked.
    They look like they will be players one - quite segmented and no bits that wouldn't fit in the player char creator.
