Issue 10 has been announced.

CoH/CoV has announced what they will be putting in the next upcoming issue: Invasion

Looks like it will be a Rikti filled issue, complete with a joint Hero/Villain taskforce.

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

Wow how original and Innovating this Issue is going to be [/sarcasm]

I really hope they release more info soon. I've read a few times how CoV is going to be the "main focus" of I10.I really don't see how this garbage is anything close to that....

(no offense to anyone who enjoys this. I'm not a rabid fanboi, and I'll speak my mind.)

Very nice. Now both the Rogue Knights and the Paragon Knights can team up. Corruptors and Tankers all the way!

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

if thats all that they're going to have in issue 10 then im pissed. for one, it looks like its basically all hero stuff. And even if all the new Rikti stuff comes to Rogue Isles, I'm not that big into the whole "story" crap anyways. I just want to play the game, do missions, lvl up, and PvP. The story doesn't really affect the game much to me. Others may really get immersed in it, but not me. Anyways, the main thing that I'm really, really, REALLY, pissed off about (assuming whats posted on the CoH website is the only stuff coming in issue 10) is that us villains, STILL DONT GET OUR EPIC ARCHETYPES!!!!!!!!! I MEAN WTF, THE HEROES GET THEM, WHY CAN'T WE!?!?!?

Actually now that I think about it the Rikti invasion might be kinda cool (just realized its some big event lol) but the fact that villains still dont get the epic archetypes is really lame.

It also says under the Rikti invasion thing on the website that the Rikti invasion will only be an event in the beginning of the issue? does this mean that there will be more new content after the invasion ends?

Tankers, pfft yea right, they will do good, but /elec Brutes will shine now, rikti are smashing/lethal/energy/psi damage based, and tankers get eaten alive by psi damage, where /elec brutes have good resistance to that, not to mention their crazy resistance to energy. But yea have to agree, cant wait for the new co-op stuff coming in this issue, always fun teaming with hero/villain friends.

Are you INSANE?! Do you understand the gravity of World Events? The last REAL world event to happen was back in Issue 3 when the Council overthrew the Fifth Column. There were all out wars in the city and hazard zones all over the place. It was CHAOS!

*SO* looking forward to Issue 10. This will be a blast!

I really hope you have a 35+ villain on triumph so you can see what a good tanker can do against psi attacks!

Or even better, a 45+ for the task force.

All the stuff I've read where i10 will be able CoV was player speculation.

And this issue is not about the heroes, this is the first true issue where neither faction is the focus and they are both getting the EXACT same implementation.

Wrong, Wrong, and Wrong. Read the Dev digest once in awhile if you don't. The DEVS have stated more then once that I10 will be CoV specific. I'd get quotes but i can't get on the Official forums for awhile. It would only take you like 30 seconds to find them talking about it.

dont see anything and it's been more than 30 seconds.

and 3 wrongs was unnecessary. None of my statements were WRONG. They were simple declarative sentences stating my experiences and opinions. And if the first paragraph were taken as a "fact" then only one WRONG would be necessary. The second paragraph could be construed as a fact because, well, CoH and CoV are both getting the same content.

No need to get your undies in a bunch.

I'm guessing your speaking of your ice tanker, they're good i'll admitt that, but my em/elec brute is better, he gets 42% psi resist, plus the special bonuses from the new IO's making it around 50-60% which is better than any other defense/resistance type AT, except for /Dark they have almost 60% resist to psi attacks and thats without the IO's.

Any ways i was talking with some of the ampers online today and we're thinking of having a huge test server event after the release of i10, to bash some rikti heads in and do the sf/tf, hopefully you'll be able to make it.

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

While i was looking at some of the old news and stuff (dont ask, was bored :P) any ways i came across this news post that was posted by me, and it listed things we may or may not see in the upcoming issues, and some of the stuff mentioned are now starting to make sense,

QUOTE

56. Hazard zones coming in COV? probably not, but that doesnt mean Villains wont have access to hero hazard zones.

we're gettin access to the rikti crash site.

QUOTE

61. Hero/villain team up besides events? Yes.

issue 10 is allowing villains and heroes to team, where it isnt just a week event an such, it will end when the devs decide.

QUOTE

26. Epic Archetypes: Incarnates? They are planned as an Epic, dont know when yet. They dont fit into the current storyline. It will be first Epic after Nictus for COV! Confirmed,
Nictus are confirmed as a lvl 50 villain Epic! They will be like warshades, but an evil version of a peacebringer, with some power tweaks.

well the nictus now kind of fits into the storyline, if not this issue, we will most likely see them in issue 11, YAY! about freakin time.

QUOTE

23. Possible to get into Rikti Ship, in the future?!

as mentioned in issue 10, we will be able to get into the ship, but ofcourse we must fight our way there first, gunna be insanely fun, as it will take alot of effort.

QUOTE

20. 5th Column: Their return is planned but not for this year.

And if the rikti weren't bad enough, we may have to get our battle suits on again for World War 5 in one of the upcoming issues after issue 10

...this has nothing to do with this post but anyone like my new dancing cat avatar? he's awsome :)

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

man all this hate towards i10..

devs promised us 3issues before 07 s up.
we will get 3issues.

i10 is already in beta. it will be out soon.
its nothing revolutionary. its just more in game content.

i11 should bring that. your villain epics or whatever.

What are you talking about? they always add new things, some may not be what everyone wanted but tough luck, life isnt always fair, and they can only do so much to make the game better, so give em a break, they do the best they can.

If they did everything everyone wanted, the game would be horrible, the lag, the lag, oh and did i mention the lag, anyways, it's bad enough the way it gets when they put one lil big project in a issue, if they put even half the sh*t that people wanted into 1 issue, there pretty much goes the game.

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

Wow ok I just spent a good few mintues reading everyones opinion on this. Were do I begin. I10 there will be plus and negative sides to this issue as all are. As part of Big side I agree with him. I haven't seen anything saying that i10 was going to be COV specific. The thing that I've read especially from Matt Miller and Lord Recluse interviews was expanding the story. Invasion I think is sweet. I feel as if they shouldn't even tell us when it happens. It would be cool to just walk around and then BAM it happens. Shocktrooper I don't see why you would leave becuase of that. This is going to be a lot of fun. Maybe the DEVS have an idea that I have been telling my VG on vent that would be nice. Events such as Villians/Heros NPC's start stepping up there game. Like for example the Freakshow decide to try and take over Faultline or something of that nature. Or one day there was a Longbow infiltration of Grandville. To me the story is what makes the game. I read all my mission stuff and it keeps me interested. So for the moment try to find the plus side to this issue, and one more request lets not step on anyone's toes and turn this into an arguement. So with that said PLAY NICE ampers.

QFT

So far all we know for sure is that this issue is going to focus on story. To what extent, we can't be sure of, but it should keep us all occupied until the next issues come out. Hopefully then we'll see some of the stuff we've been promised. But, for now, as much as a I like chaos and unrest, this bickering is getting quite annoying. So, until we have more information let's just calm down and take a whiff of whatever Shadow Doom's been smoking (A very ironic post by the way. You know, with his name being what it is and everything).

RE: Issue 10 has been announced.

Well you see the story line is progressing as it is supposed too, look into CoV, villains travel to the future (where everything is destroyed) to take out recluse.

Now the way everything got destory was mainly due to the 2nd rikti war (which im guessing I10 is about trying to stop). After which the council invaded and finished off the rikti and destroye everything with a giant mech ect.

Now i recok we get to alter this by stopping a 2nd rikti war with I10, and when the 5th coloum return i reckon they wipe out the vast majority of the council meaning they cannot overthrow the rikti and destroy paragon.

or something to that effect...

Makes sense to me. So we have a chance to alter the future, sounds good to me. Any ways, im guessing the rikti war II wipes out most of the heroes allowing villains to overthrow them, which is how recluse ends up in atlas park. So basically there is alot at risk for both sides. But when the 5th Column returns, they waige war against the council, which could cause total chaos throughout the world, meaning both villains and heroes have to get their battle suits on again to prevent the destruction of the world....again.
