Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.

It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.

Watching the video filled me with excitement. That's the best I can do right now to put it into words.

Happy birthday City of Heroes.

Wish we could say that under better circumstances.

And yeah. That teaser looks neat. So that big phoenix-thing there is a lighthouse? I got that all wrong, I thought it was going to be our Atlas-like plaza centerpiece.

The shell passes on, the spirit is eternal. Maybe Paragon was just a manifestation of something that was already there and still is. We're just building a new place for that spirit to reside for a while.

*sigh of annoyance*

*sigh of annoyance*

Except that it did, for those looking closely.

We got a glimpse of how our characters will move and a basic body type. We saw a generic character in "hover"-style flight. This is the first time [that I know of] that we have seen anything other than that 'bot world-building avatar they have been showing us - we got to see a basic character!! Those are important things for me to see, and it gives me more confidence that we're going to end up with something better than what we originally had in CoX. Our characters will move more dynamically and yet there is a feeling of similarity there.

Dismiss it if you like. I won't and don't.

The big phoenix-thing you see around 0:46 is the atlas-like centerpiece. The lighthouse at around 1:09 is something else.

The 'Globe' is part of the Phoenix Statue at the center of a plaza; the building that you see rise up behind it is City Hall.

Come on, Jas : /.

These guys are working extra hard because they went all the way back to pre-production and started over so as to be able to give us the game in an awesome new engine that will make City of Titans a far better and more lasting game in many ways.

But, if you weren't taking these easy jabs, someone would be. There's always at least one. I guess you're our one.

And, you got me to bite the hook, so good baiting :P.

You attempted to rain on everyone else's parade. I was happy to see the video - if you were not, then that is on you.

We are that much closer to this game being reality, which should be cause for rejoicing. Then you show up with your raincloud. Oh well, enough about all that and back to rejoicing.

Andy's flanking the UFO, by the way, though he doesn't do much.

We were going to have the last bit after the credit, but we decided people would miss it.

You also saw a landscape and how buildings interact with it, various of our buildings, and, of course, the Statue and Lighthouse.

I can't wait till you see the textured and lighted versions.

In all fairness we did use the first-pass version of it as a stand-in for the plaza while we worked on the final statue.

For being a teaser to what's to come in the future, this video is absolutely great! 10/10

Thank you MWM and the COX community as a whole for all your devotion and hard work into bringing back a game that has meant so much to so many...

Keep strong and fly on!

(On a side note: Where can I go to listen to the track used in the teaser?)

I'm not one hundred percent certain, but the music in the video is almost certainly from [url=https://soundcloud.com/hellwreckage]Hellwreckage[/url], MWM's sound dude.

That particular track is called We Are Villains. I don't /believe/ it's on Hellwreckage's soundcloud yet, but if you ask him very nicely, he may oblige :)

Ah, so I wasn't so much wrong as I was using outdated information. That was actually a placeholder.

So the lighthouse is the big bird-thing in the City of Titans logo banner, right? Between the "Y" and the "OF".

Correct. It was created by VDG originally, and Ian refined it to the final shape. It will be discussed at length in a future update.
