Fired up my account again this week. Is it just me or is the Rikti Invasion event one of the best they've ever done? I feel like I'm in a proper summer blockbuster. _________________ Blog archive 2006
The Rikti have return to Paragon City to mount a second invasion. At certain times (seems to be late evenings on certain days) you get an alert in the chat box stating that Rikti ships have been sighted over a city zone. You then get about 5 mins or so to head there (or escape if you'd rather) before the skys darken and drop ships begin patroling the zone. First they bomb the streets (and you have to destroy the bombs before they regen and detonate) then the main invasion force lands and a constant stream of aliens decend on the centre of the city. You basically end up with loads of heroes holding the line against wave after wave of aliens. They're statted using the scaling stats they use on giant monsters too, so their level is relative to the person they're fighting rather than set in stone. Means you can jump in with whoever you're playing rather than having to go get your main.
They've added a new zone in the old crash site too, where heroes and villains can team up together and take on the Rikti base.
Musta had 30 odd heroes in Atlas Park last night, all fighing back to back against those alien bastards! _________________ Blog archive 2006

NCSoft bought out Cryptic's stake in City of Heroes! They've built a new studio dedicated to the franchise, hired the entire COH creative team and are planning on tripling the dev staff over the next year. The general gist is that Cryptic want to be able to dedicate all their resources to Marvel Online and NCSoft want to put more focus into the COH franchise to make sure it's strong enough to stand up to the coming competition. Tis a good time to be a cape. _________________ Blog archive 2006
