    How much content do we have, anyway?

    This was a question asked of the Legacy Devs during a HeroCon and if memory serves me correctly (not going to lay any odds on that <.< ), it was stated that there were in excess of 10,000 missions.

     

     

    Well, I counted arcs and badge missions.  I suppose I could pull up the wiki and look up how many missions each arc has, but that sounds like more work than I am willing to do.  😁

     

    Any idea when that HeroCon was?  Because a lot of content gets added every year.  I know it's not precise, but it's a nice marker.

    So I was lying in bed last night and started trying to quantify how much "content" was in the game.  So I thought about going to Ouroboros for both sides and add the total together, less the co-op stuff so they aren't double counted.  Then add all the TFs and trials and the Signature Story Arcs.  But then I remembered we also have repeatable contacts in some zones.  And some characters have additional missions that aren't part of an arc or badge so they aren't in Ouro (Maria Jenkins, for example).  Then we also have the Star Challenge stuff that takes existing content but adds new NPCs and effects and tricks that makes them significantly different than their base level.

     

    And that doesn't even touch upon base-building, costume creating, build-making, role-playing and all the other player-made content in AE.

     

    So . . . I'm about to go into the game and grab some of those numbers.  If you think I'm missing something, please let me know and I'll add it.

     

    265 Hero side Story Arcs + TFs + Trials

    188 Villain Arcs + TFs +Trials (excluding those already counted as identical co-op)

    68,380 AE missions!!

    2 Hamidon Raids

    1 Mothership Raid

    1 Seed of Hamidon Raid

    24 other Zone events (including giant monsters and invasions)

    19 repeatable contacts with a varying amount of missions each

    5 "unlock" Tip missions

    144 Alignment missions

    16 Morality Missions

    38 zones with exploration tips

    15 Special Event contacts

    2 Skiing ramps

    22 PvP Zone missions/events

    3 Advanced difficulty TFs

    56 Police Radios and Banks

    141 Newspaper missions and Banks

    9 Warshade Arcs

    9 Peacebringer Arcs

    5 Soldier of Arachnos Arcs (Note: Devs hate villains)

    4 Rogue Arcs

    4 Vigilante Arcs

    Did any feedback matter in the threads? Or…

    no patch is ever going to be 100% perfect (we are just a volunteer team doing our best, after all)

     

    No patch to any game or software, whether volunteer or for profit, is 100% perfect.  Some of the biggest companies on the planet push out patches that need to be patched.

    Simply put, one doesn't need to taste food that's prepared from ingredients they already know they don't like.

     

    While that makes common sense, it's not always true.  One can look at the ingredients for a Caesar salad and refuse to eat it because it has anchovies and they once tried anchovies on a pizza and hated it.  But then they actually try the salad and taste that the anchovies are used in a different way that adds flavor without overwhelming salty fishiness.  That's just one example.  I could come up with many more.

    The mids team are not part of Homecoming and do it out of love for the game and community. They aren't devs with instant access to the back end.

     

    That's what they want you to think!  It's all a cabal within a cabal, sprinkled with a zesty conspiracy, wrapped in a whole wheat enigma, and smothered with secret society cheese sauce.
