City of Heroes: Issue 19 Strike Pack Update

SBFordSBFord Former Associate EditorMember LegendaryPosts: 33,129

The City of Heroes forum has a new announcement from Tim “Black Scorpion” Sweeney about an update coming to Issue 19 called the Strike Pack. From the post: "The Strike Pack introduces the Weekly Strike Target and the Rare and Very Rare tiers of the Incarnate Alpha Slot."

Weekly Strike Target: Every week, we will announce one Task Force and one Strike Force (or instead one Co-Op Task Force) that will give increased rewards for that week. The first time a character completes the Weekly Strike Target in the week, they receive double merits and a bunch of additional XP. Even if you “go rogue” and do the other side’s Weekly Strike Target as well, you’ll only get that reward for your first in a given week. After running it once, your character can earn progress toward some brand new badges for helping others by running it as many times as you like. Of course, you can run the WST on as many characters as you have the inclination for and get the increased rewards on each. The Weekly Strike Target will change every Tuesday morning.

    This is a great addition.

    This assures us that all of the task forces will be popular during a week so that the less popular ones can be done to get the extra stuff and the TF badge!  WOOT!  So excited!  We needed this to sort of reign in the masses to focus on specific things and make getting up teams a little bit easier.

    I wonder if it's going to be on a schedule or if it will be random.  They didn't say specifically.  Would be nice to have a schedule of it.

    I have played all the super hero MMO'S and have to say that city of heroes still is the king. Long live the king.

    LOL --- I got slapped with a warning because I posted my opinion. I was not bating or trying to troll. Sometimes, people may just have an opinion that differs from what you think and they may dislike it! End of story.

    What's up with this nazi like reign that's taken over mmorpg. It wasn't like this before. I've been a member for so long (this is my 2nd account -- can't remember my original username) that I remember a time when I used to chat with the owner about banner ads and the costs, when I was considering it for my company.

    Rediculous how things are now. So, I can't say a game is boring if I think it is? If I'm not mistaken, this is America and it's not 1942.

     I have to agree. I was on the DCUO kick ,was thinking it was going to be a step up from CoH ( not that CoH is Bad). but in the end its Marvel alliance online IMO. Hell even CO is better than DCUO...the combat IS cool in DCUO but the lack of custimization and ability to TRUELY make a concept character at creation is LAaaame.
