  1. Two of the more exciting news bits for me:

    NCPass?

    For the past year (or longer) I’ve been asking NCSoft when they’ll let us pay one monthly fee (obviously higher than 14.99$) for access to their suite of games. The answer is always “soon” and sadly – it is again! “[We] should have something to announce this year,” said Chung. “There isn’t anything really holding it back, but timing, making sure our infostructure supports it, and we want to make sure it’s the right thing for our customers.”

    Play Station 3

    NCSoft has partnered up with Sony and is beginning to develop some titles for the PS3! I asked Chung if we’d be seeing City of Heroes, Tabula Rasa, or one of the other NC titles on the console soon. Chung answered, “The game needs to feel right on a console.” While some of the current NCSoft IPs might be present on the PS3, straight port is likely not the answer. Keep on the look out, too, for some entirely new NCSoft IPs.

    NCSoft in 2008, bring it on!

    MoG continuing to suck is the only thing that grounds me in reality.

    You might want to avoid the Training Room in the near future, then.

    Thanks, guys.... Your hard work is much appreciated. I rarely see this much support for a game 3 years after its release! You guys are treating this game as if it got released 2 weeks ago! Thanks!

  4. Oh! Also, is there any news on the rest of the weapon sets being able to get their Vanguard issued weapons?

    The problem is, this isn't a democracy. How do-able a set is, is a huge factor in deciding what new sets will be added. No matter how many people want it, we just aren't going to see stretching due to the technical limitations of the engine. Similarly, we will not see growth as a powerset because the game is built around characters of a certain size range.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It may not be a democracy, but I do seem to remember the devs stating that their priority was to give the players what they wanted if it were possible. Is a poll possible? No one is saying to make it a fill in the blank pole, but if the devs would throw out 20 ideas that they believe are doable, and then let us narrow that down to 6 or so for the official poll, it would be a step in the right direction.

    Also, be careful about saying what we will and won't see. What's impossible (most likely improbable) today is often very possible tomorrow. We've seen this many times in the last 3 years as new tech becomes available.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They actually said they want to give what the players want, within reason. The impossible will still be impossible and the difficult will take time.

  21. It's about time! I'm glad this merge is happening. I almost never wander into the Villains side so it'll be nice to see the extra conversation going on with City Life.
  22. From the beginning of this thread I actually thought that Tarmac just wanted something else for Heroes rather than Dual Blades. I somewhat still think it is. Beyond the silly contradictions and weak argumentations, what it comes down to is this guy really is asking that Issue 11 would only have Willpower for Tankers and Scrappers. The developers know it and we know it: more variety in those AT primaries and secondaries would be more than appreciated.

    It's because dual-wielding weapons is inherently cool.

    So what you guys are saying is... if I get Dual Blades on my Scrapper I'll be Critically Cool?
