DANGER. OPINIONS AHEAD. The game has bucketloads of content, absolute tonnes of it. And the Devs are proving they can add more and add it well. So motivation? That's not on them, short of them managing to multiply their team tenfold and maintain quality at the same time. So that's in the "more to do" bracket. End game content? Yes, the game does need more of that, but frankly the Devs are currently smart enough to avoid it because if it isn't backed up with content across the board then it's just another bottleneck and you're in the same spot. The original devs constantly fell down on this. I'll give you an example of what I mean, YMMV on whether I'm hitting the mark or swinging wild here though. The war with Praetoria. There's Portal Corp missions and on up to iTrials, but in a war with another dimension where were the missions for everyone? Where were the level 20 missions (red or blue) where you had to infiltrate a base to do a thing so that the 50s could even DO an iTrial? Too much hand waving and relying on Dream Doctor (please someone remove him from all future content!) and he's a deus ex machina that removes player agency. Bad choice. So, HC are taking things slow but in the right way (sure, there's things I want them to do that they haven't and might not but you can't have everything).

As do Wiki writers (teasing @thunderforce!) Especially when they show up and announce "Hey, I can do this thing! And did you know...etc"

Isn't it great to be back home again?

I'm just posting a screenie. Because, you know, when your dedicated Redside 4EVAH villain, who's an ex-Skull, and his bunch of Thugs decide to help out Doc Buzzsaw, well, ya gotta. Wendigo Montoya and the boys are here to kick you in the face!

She's not there as a vendor, so...

And that there is a hook. There are a few places are around that can be releveraged into doing extra work, since getting more mileage out of what we already have is, I think, vital. Either that or @Piecemeal will never sleep again. A topic for another thread though.

My SG is a Praetorian origin only SG. Is is possible to get it rebranded to this? EDIT. It looks like it already is! Thank you!

Past winners get inducted into the Hall of Fame, but you also have a lot of farms in there too, so combine that with @cranebump's suggestion of SFMA in the search function too. SFMA is your friend! Follow the man's advice! (And check out his arcs, they're good!)

The one in Kallisti is on the Christie Square side, almost at the south wall. Atlas Park? I think that's in the south east corner. And Destroyed Galaxy? You can SEE it out beyond the statue of Galaxy Girl but you can't get to it. It's the same building though.

Similar building in Kallisti Wharf....and there's one in Destroyed Galaxy too.

Last Bastion's story does take place then but isn't anywhere near "Praetoria Proper" (coupled with the fact that the entire Underground is actually a system of nuclear bunkers), and are you seriously suggesting that any Praetorian still there wouldn't be fighting the Hamidon? You have Praetorian citizens in danger and IDF troopers still unconverted to DE monstrosities to rescue. Any Praetorian would be there doing their bit. I don't see any reason why they would have had to leave to do this. And if it's the simple fact that I suggested that Number Six or Dark Watcher be located in Nova, then place them in First Ward or Night Ward. In fact A static box INSIDE the never used First Ward train station would be perfect for Six.

I know Reese recognizes a Praetorian origin character if you run one of those through this set of missions, I'll have to test it with a Primal only character, unless anyone else can enlighten me? Or maybe that's on the HC wiki? Time to look.

And the absolute "woo!" from getting the SG TP Accolade that let you use a port to the area!

Hmmm. A more in keeping with the Hamidon lore thing might be a variation on the Buoyant Membrane temp power you get in the Seed of Hamidon raids when you take out a seedling.

And this window works!

I figured I'd add the companion shot to the first one, with Antimatter and Duncan dancing away in Studio 55.

And when testing out the nice new gold base portals I found these. Unless my memory is failing, these are new. I even popped into the AE to check that version of this area and they aren't there.

AE! Yes. Love it. And I'd love to have access to incarnate opponents for players. I wrote a long arc for AE and apart from one or two missions I capped most material at 44 so that Incarnates wouldn't just steamroller it. But I'd PREFER if they had the option to play to their full capacity. I didn't do it to nerf them but to preserve the story.

Plus the Arachnos recruitment posters!

A bunch of new incarnate content a la the material we just got is doable but such a lot of work for a tiny team. So way to toggle Incarnate versions of existing material? As mentioned before, a team of Incarnates doing LRSF gets Incarnate FP to face off against, and vice versa in the MLTF?

Ok, what? This is the only way I can currently visit Last Bastion (see my posts on that , Devs!) Via the Arena. But why is there a wrecked Warhulk here?

Well, I got into an argument "on the internet", because I forgot and am an idiot, with a player complaining there was no new content (obviously before the drop of cool stuff this week), and I said that maybe, just maybe as a new sort of shared community MMO it's partially up to use to provide content rather than leaving it all to the Devs. So I put my influence where my mouth was and made some content. It's got a few hinky bits because I still don't know enough about making AEs + the AE interface is hinky in itself, but I'm pretty happy with the overall plot and how it plays out. Yeah. 45. I did it like three seasons of TV, so three slots of 5 each = season 1, and so on.

A reflection of the times we live in! Though realistically they should be sitting near ATMs.

No, I wrote a (stupidly long) arc in AE (45 missions) and was pondering making a trailer for it. I've just been on and off playing with demorecord to see what I can see, and I don't have YOUR eminent skill set, so when I say "you", I don't mean you personally, just asking your opinion. 🙂

I already do this and am happy to exemp down below 45 to play, as are plenty of others. I haven't ever experienced your stated tiny vocal minority personally. I see far more complaints, and they are valid, that there isn't enough content of the right nature for incarnates. That's no fault of anyone here right now. There are plenty of suggestions above that could paper over this while we wait for some new content of the right scope and range.
