Tips of the hat

I think it would be good to have a few ingame homages to some of the people involved with the immediate aftermath of the shutdown and the fight to save it.

Specifically a few suggestions would be:

Name the City Hall Miller Hall
Have a Vazquez park.
Have a Lackey's bookstore

That kind of thing.

I think this is a good idea. Little homages are nice IMHO and don't cost anything.

I remember when Star Wars was cool...a long, long time ago...

There were quite a few tips

There were quite a few tips of the hat in CoH to begin with, from do/so enhancement names, areas of the city, shops/restaurants/billboards, an entire villain group. I think there is more than enough room to through in some tributes to CoH's dev team, as well as other geeky references/silly parodies.

I can't remember where but I

I can't remember where but I saw an idea for a blue, white and gold payphone in train stations as a tribute to Ascendant.

I hope that someone has designated Ascendant for one or more of their KS perks. And I'm not just saying that because I was his food taster! :P

/agreed.

/agreed.

And I do remember some nods in CoH. Perez park for instance named after comic book artist George Perez. I know this game is a "spiritual" successor to CoH, but if possible give some nods to comic book hero/villian world from which a game as this comes from.

This is what the memorial

This is what the memorial park is going to be for. And why they created a Hurricane named Atlas that was stopped by 33 heroes so that they could have a memorial to the Atlas 33. MWM is way ahead of you here. I'm quoting stuff they put in their blog four or more months ago.

a giant billboard for the "The Ascendant Action Hour TV Show"? a chunk of Xenonite in a desert area?

Possibilities are endless!

Maybe we could get some limited edition costume piece like an "I Survived Hurricane Atlas" t-shirt.
