Thanks, I was hoping for a good update today. :-)
I'm officially reserving character names Iolo, Dupre, and Shamino.
Spurn all ye kindle.

Now all the world will know that City of Titans is the Ultima Super Hero MMORPG!
ps. Has the non-all-fools-day update been pushed back to tomorrow?

The first time CoH did this (freem!) I bought it. After that it was fun to see what trick they'd play each April. Thanks for upholding the tradition except you needn't give it away with the last sentence. The fun was seeing how many commentors took it serious until reminded of the date.
nice...heh

Well we're a bit more vulnerable to people misunderstanding right now, without an actual game yet and all. We're playing it safer this year than we might in future years.

Wait! Britishman is just as bad as Anthem! Are they not planning to improve on things?! What happens to the kickstarters? O.O
hehe..
If you Really want to get us, try releasing news one day Before April 1st thats a little off, then print a corrected updated on the 1st again, but which sounds unbelievable. That might throw some for a loop. ;)
geez you got me for a second, i was in the middle of going "oh for f*ck sakes!" when i realized the date today
so is there a true update this week?
Currently trapped inside the Speed Force...
Hmmmm. Not an Anthem fan?
How'd you feel about Statesman?
FIGHT EVIL! (or go cause trouble so the Heroes have something to do.)
I, for one, welcome our new British overlords and would like to remind them that I could instrumental in rounding up others of my kind for enslavement in randomized rare drop mission farms. :)

A good joke would been stating the new management was NCSoft.
My capcha today was "1 + 1 =" seemed easy but then I had to consider the impact of the new owners

One is now forced to consider the possibility of glitches that allow the players to kill unkillable npcs due to the injection of Lord Garriot of Britishland.
Everyone here should, of course, be familiar with the hilarity that ensued when Lord Garriot entered Fooltima Ontime one day, but forgot to toggle on his powers and ended up getting one-shotted by a sly assassin...

Having actually met and chatted with [url=http://richardgarriott.com/]Richard Gariott[/url] on multiple occasions (first at a City of Heroes Meet & Greet, then repeatedly for Tabula Rasa), I considered the name drop to be both a complete giveaway and a Fine Choice™.
Nicely done.

I figured that this would give Red and I an excuse to visit Richard and see if we'd gotten to "You again?!" status.

Erm... not knowing the relavance of this man's name and being english myself... It wasnt obvious, other than the date, this thread and I can't remember the last time we referred to ourselves as British ;)
Not sure I liked the insinuation that CoT isnt a global product though

You know, reading this announcement, it sounds like it implies this David person killed all of the other founders, seized control of the company, sold it, and then took all of the money and fled to the Rogue isles.
I resent the implication, since it gives the impression of a rank amateur. The more co-founders you kill, the harder it would be to find anyone willing to go into business with you. I would certainly never do such a thing!
It is only when we stand up, with all our failings and sufferings, and try to support others rather than withdraw into ourselves, that we can fully live the life of community.

He was CoH's flagship. He was CoH's Superman. I'd like to give a Marvel example, but I'm not sure if that would be Captain America or Spider-Man for the flagship title.
I didn't like them killing him off, but I couldn't say he was my favorite and I HATED the mask.
Under the name "Lord British", he created the "Ultima" game series. ^_^

I heard a lot of "We're all British" from south of the border during the referendum.
Now, not so much.
Spurn all ye kindle.
Good One.
Space stations confirmed for launch!

Richard Garriott created the [i]Ultima[/i] series of games, and his alter ego within those games is a character named "Lord British."
Later, when he headed up [i]Tabula Rasa[/i] his alter ego was "General British," fitting with the game's modern/near-future military setting.
So if he took over [i]City of Titans[/i], his alter ego could well be "Britishman," though my money would be on "Doc British," a hero reminiscent of Doc Savage.

Well. This thread certainly went interesting and somewhat dark places. I'm afraid we had to prune it back till it was actually on topic again.
I'd also like to take this moment to apologize for our unprofessionalism. I know I said things I certainly should not have, as project lead, because when I post here, I am posting with the weight of the project behind me.
I value you guys, each and every one of you, and I'm proud you've chosen to stick with us on our journey. It's going to be a long one, but we will make it through.
Keep fighting, all of you, and remember, sometimes it's better to think twice about what you want to say, no matter how tempting it is. I think I'm going to try to apply those words to myself for a while.
This post was edited to add:
We want to emphasize that it was not the subject of the thread that prompted this course of action. We are a company born from the collective creativity of our community, and we have not forgotten the value of listening.
Unfortunately this particular example just strayed too far into darker and less productive territory. There were many participants who were truly trying to debate and discuss but the actions of a few ultimately led this thread astray, to the point that we felt it best to put an end to it.
We are sure everyone involved had the best of intentions, and hope the discussion can be held again someday in a more productive fashion.
