Executive Producer Shannon Posniewski checks in with April's State of Champions Online.
Greetings, Fellow Champions!
Since the last State of the Game, Revelation went live. Revelation has a new zone and a bunch of new content for players level 37 and up. The overall reaction to it is pretty positive. The Apocalypse! Time machines! And Foxbat! We think it's some of the slickest looking and fun content we've built.
In the meantime, we've been doing our best to keep communication open on the boards and on the website. Internally, we have also made process changes in an attempt to improve our response times to support tickets. And now that I've been reminded that I'm supposed to be writing the State of the Game reports, I'll keep those coming too. I also hope to get you a calendar for our future updates soon.
The next Dev Event is planned for 30 April 2010, from 4-7 p.m. PDT. We'll be playing through Therakiel's Lair with anyone foolhardy enough Champions Online Gold to team with us. StormShade will have more information on that as we get closer. Also, keep an eye out for anyone in the Cryptonauts supergroup (we have the great big Champions "C" on our chests), since we're playing on our own too!
Coming Soon ...
Before I jump into what's coming up, I wanted to give you an idea of our plans in general. We expect to make a significant update once every four to six weeks - approximately monthly. Every other update will be focused on content such as an Adventure Pack or other content increases. The other updates will be largely system, powers, and quality of life related. That's not to say we won't sometimes mix these together, but it's the general rule of thumb we're planning with. In addition, all updates get bug fixes, and we'll also patch important bugs between updates.
