Nifty City of Heroes Stuff
So I've been playing on the test server for City of Heroes testing out all the new stuff that will be going in with Issue 2. All I can say is, SWEET! Going to totally have to delete like half my characters and start over. :-p The beginning is a lot more interesting. You can skip the tutorial (although, free level, so not sure why, although you don't get influence or drops for it either, so that could be why). One of the NPCs in the tutorial is no longer a garden variety cop as well. Then your missions have changed a lot once you get out. Oh, sure, you get the "beat the living tar out of x Hellions" kinds of things, but the indoor missions? Heh. Burning walls... conjuration tables... wandering mobs.
My one complaint with the first mission my Magic Scrapper got last night was that it went from the "5 Hellions" to "Defeat all Hellions in the Warehouse" which used to be a very short warehouse with about 5 to 8 Hellions in it. It now is a full size (albeit, still medium low in size) office complex (all on fire) loaded to bear with enemies, half of which were one level higher than I was. o_o
Got to level 5. Love the new Storm Kick for MA Scrappers, by the way. Went to my Level 5 contact and he... is sending me to the Hollows! ^_^ Going to possibly putz around with that tonight to see what's what.
I also went hopping around Paragon City with Kung Ru (freshly copied from Pinnacle) and collected a big load of exploration badges. Got all of them in Atlas Park, Galaxy City, King's Row, Perez Park, Steel Canyon, and Skyway City. Probably going to go bounce around Boomtown and Faultline next. Then I might go poking around Talos Island and parts of Independence Port for those ones.
It'll be nice when this goes live and I can get more missions for Ru. I'll probably start doing a cheap "beat on a few gang members and reset the mission" thing to get her out of debt. :-p Safer than trying to get out any other way currently. :-p Well, that and I can reverse-sidekick myself down to help out
satyr_mi with his stuff! ^_^
So, I'm very excited about all the new goodies. ^_^ Going to be tons of fun to play with!
