And the Rikti Monkey Fight Club! I mean the real one! (Or one of the real ones, the one in Port Oakes is permanently closed.)

Thanks. The post is still semi inchoate, and could use more work, but I'm just (a) looking at how what we have can be leveraged, (b) as @Icecomet says, trying to show people places they might not know, and (c), most importantly, possibly introduce new content into the game. EASY...ROFL.

I sometimes go street sweeping on a new alt in Galaxy. It's nice at least running into Purp 6s there and fighting your way clear. OLD SKOOL!

I would actually like to have a door. Just a damn door I can open. I could even write "EXIT" over it. How about that?

Well, @DougGraves, one of the issues is the amount of players who think +4/X8 is somehow a "default" and get annoyed if you don't want to do that.

Gonna do a cross post, @Icecomet. Hope that's cool with you, as PDP is a major part of this. 🙂

(1) That's ...interesting. (2) We already have the AE, so that interface is there, and (3) I've been rabbiting on about how the AE itself should be mined for "tip like missions", whether the single drops like actual tips, or a "tip arc" (for want of a better word) that could be a full 5 mission thing. Interesting variant on things there. Don't see it happening though.

Well, that's a start! And "they" was effectively one person in the end, building all that. Mechanics, while fiddly, is a different beast.

Powers-wise or everything? I could understand to a certain extent powers-wise, but content? Actual story narrative attempting to move forward rather than a fossilized game? Not for this player I'm afraid.

Addressing this as someone who mains Gold, lots of Gold. No. Keep them separate. What you need is a way for Golds who leave to still be recognized as such by all their old contacts when they revisit outside of ouro. (That and raising the cap to leave to 25 or having another Gold zone that covers 40 to 50). And for another part of the equation, why do Safeguard missions and Mayhem missions only happen in Paragon? Surely banks get knocked over in the Rogue Isles? (Yes, they do in a few isolated arcs but those aren't the same thing.) More Vig/Rogue material that covers the seedier underbelly of both sides, as opposed to the few, very few, arcs that serve them. Yes, yes, tip missions. Much as I love tip missions, not the same thing. Fundamental structure? I keep advocating (you people must be either sick of me doing it now, or haven't noticed it yet) that the AE be mined for content and ported into the game. There is some great work being written in the AE with fairly limited tools I might add, plenty of writers pushing at the envelope of what can and can't be done. Expanding that toolkit, nevermind implementing my oddball theory crossposted above, would be cool. And I'm a person for whom "making little stories in the AE" is a big part of how I actually PLAY the game 🙂

You are, for my money's worth, absolutely right!

Started Posi 1 yesterday by continuously commenting on all the fridges. "Ooh, there's a fridge here! Don't fancy whatever is in a sewer fridge!"

Are you both Gulls? No. NO ASCENDING FOR YOU!

Trying out Cel shading. And kinda liking it.

Just a shot of the Meteors together. Love that gang 😄

Seems like some of the other Arachnos soldiers like a quiet drink out of the way of the CCTV cameras. On report for you lot!

Sword initiate thinking: WTH? Neuron or Antimatter have lost it completely! What sort of a Clockwork abomination is this?

Just a group shot of the Meteors together 😄 Love those people.

Exactly! *cough* Along with all the other stuff missing from the AE 😄

If Perez could get the Atlas treatment (comparing the Echo to the present one) that'd be cool. Of course plenty of other spots need it more. It does depend on the zone though. Faultline and the Crash site were needed. I suppose DA was too, but I prefer the vibe to Echo DA.

Ah, time fracture there. Killed and yet lives on! And I get off that chopper in Paragon to find Sister Psyche is dead for ages...but I just left her...whut?

That happens regularly on Reunion! (Ok, it happening is sometimes MY fault but even so!) Also, THE Blue Spectrum is in the Galaxy City tutorial! I mean, THE Blue Spectrum! AWESOME!

You know, in a real world sense I thought it was designed to kill COH and prep for COH2. Now, that is NOT going to happen here, for obvious reasons. And as @Greycatsaid, some of the AMA (a LOT of it TBH) around this is just cringey. So, two options. (1) SOMETHING happens and it's (please please please) not the crap spoken of in the AMAs, or (2) you know, those who spoke of it were, oh dear, WRONG. As in absolutely wrong. Heaven forfend that Prrometheus and his giant ego get something wrong. But he turns out to be completely wrong, and we get something cool and beautiful that hasn't been spoilered by a decade old AMA that people keep dragging out as if it's the Necronomicon. And why did he get it wrong? Because Zeus hates him and left "clues" for that idiot to drool over. Ahem.

Well, Original Posi and Sister Psyche already mentioned, maybe Calvin Scott? Some stuff that just won't even APPEAR outside of Ouro for instance.

Thematically? Right now we have Pos1/Posi 2, so I'd go straight into "The Graveyard Shift" and "The Freakish Lab of Doctor Vahzilok" from those.
