mechahamham Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 I'm delighted to see all the various bug fixes and geometry fixes. The big part of this for me are the new accolades. Mark and Recall looks AMAZINGLY awesome! (I'm still amazingly burned out on incarnate content.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Videra Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Well, this is a treat to come home to after work. A simple, no frills page with what is arguably the best content that's been added to CoH? On-top of having no unnecessary power changes and a strong support set? I applaud. Cobalt did a great job on this patch, as did the rest of the designers - I hope momentum stays on producing good content like Labyrinth, because a few pages like this? Will really breathe new life into the game. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurtHutt Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 The Labyrinth sounds like a cool idea. I may have missed it but is there an end goal/boss in that whole thing? Or is it just strike out and adventure as you like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit different and not the same old. Well done, HC team! It's too bad they didn't create new enemy groups to occupy it and make it totally unique but c'est la vie. Baby steps, baby!

What a swell community! Whoo boy 😄 What’s really strange is it looks like none of the stuff that was getting that kind of reaction from testers made it into this update.

gameboy1234 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I like the new patch notes so far, seems like a lot of fun. Especially the new zone and the new powerset, those will be cool to try out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a number of things that the name is alluding to- most obvious is the 20th Anniversary of the game, but many of which aren't arriving in Page 1... we've got quite a few things cooking for this Issue short and long-term, so stay tuned ❤️ 4 1 6 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcane Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 The complete lack of power changes and revamps is kind of disappointing. The new powerset looks incredible though. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he definitely qualifies as the end boss. He chases you around, but is seriously buffed (by level shifts) until you/the league works its way through to build up level shifts of your own and even the playing field somewhat. The fight with him has some surprises of it's own too. 😉 2 Excelsior ExAstris - Arachnos Widow Pulp Noir - Illusion/Psy Assault Perspective - Illusion/TA Madame Elena - Rad/Bio (Scrapper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am SO SICK AND TIRED of revamps over new stuff. Unless there's something really wrong, stop changing it all the time. Seriously. For builds, some take time and pour over making them the way we like - stop changing it for the sake of changing things. Sure, make a change if there are some issues or problems but otherwise....make it a low priority. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I’m not the only one. 2) power changes and revamps are sorely needed, still. Empathy? Kinetic Melee? Staff Fighting? Etc. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
