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.

To Sidekick or not to sidekick, that is the question.

Is the SK/Exempt system returning? Please tell me it is :/

I still can't believe every other MMO hasn't utilised this system. It was one of the most fundamentally important systems in CoX as allowing 8 players to gather and play the same missions regardless of levels was essential to the experience.

I agree, probably the best

I agree, probably the best system in mmo (besides how they approached auction house and crafting) I've been. That system, you can easily play with your friends regardless or what level you are and still get xp (think that was the biggest plus)

Personally, I generally

Personally, I generally preferred the exemping system over the "sidekick" system. And I know that Wildstar does the exemping system in at least the *team* content. I am not sure (to be fair) about the sidekicking, although I do believe that there is something there inside their *instanced* content (dungeons, raids, adventures).

And in the PvP arena instances, if you are not level 50, everyone gets shifted up to level 50 IIRC for the "practice" PvP (as they call it).

I can't play MMOs that don't

I can't play MMOs that don't have a sidekicking/exemplaring system anymore. Being able to easily play with friends regardless of relative levels is too important.

I also enjoy continuing to

I also enjoy continuing to get enjoyment out of low level zones with a high level character. For example scaling my level down to the max of the zone, but keeping my upgrades and powers. So then I still feel super, but not complete blindfold easy mode.

Completely agree that both SK

Completely agree that both SK and Exemp mechanics are a MUST for CoT. I'm a casual (more than casual) player with a wife and kids. I have friends that play A LOT more than I do. It was wonderful to be able to pick and choose which character you wanted to play at that particular time based on FUN, instead of asking yourself, which character is level appropriate so I can team up with friends.

And this is slightly off topic, but make it so the lowbie zones are fun. Unfortunately, I really don't have much to contribute on HOW. I was a huge altoholic. I loved creating new toons, new variations, new combinations, and running around playing the game all over again. That's missing from the other MMOs I'm playing. On the flip side, I didn't mind bringing one of my geared up 50s and exemping down to join a Frostfire mish or whatever.

I miss CoH.

This is a must. I'm about to

This is a must. I'm about to leave my current MMO (before the initial month) because I simply cannot pleay with my RL friends. I can only join random Joe who happens to be around my level and doing the same task as me. Add to that a very cumbersome quest tracker to use (which unfortunally is the norm) and this game is a pain in groups.

CoH made everything easy and fund. No worries about levels, and when the leader picked a tas all members got the navpoints, killcounts, ojectives etc. I hope all this returns =D

I see most of you agree this

I see most of you agree this is a fundamental system. Please Devs, any chance of an announcement if this is a possible game mechanic? I'm sure if you say 'yes' I think I will not be able to contain my excitement!
