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.

I mentioned something about this in another thread, but I will state it here as well. There should be an Independence Day celebration in the city. Now I know there are plenty of gamers who are not from the US, and I mean no disrespect or insult to them. It just felt so wrong that Paragon City, in it's fictional world the most major of all US cities, set in Rhode Island, one of the 13 original states, did not set off Fireworks on July 4th.
Come on, lets get the red, white, and blue banners out, have a parade, set up the grill, have a sale on appliances, and set off some fireworks!

A few ideas for seasonal events
[b]4th of July[/b]
British Invasion: The Loyalists, a group of British villains who never let go of the past, are trying to take over America starting with Titan City. Every hour they'll attack City Hall by land and sea, with bombs bursting in air. Heroes and Villains team up to beat back the soldiers lead by Union Jack and keep America free.
Star-Spangled Battle: This year for Independence Day, have a little patriotic fun as heroes and villains duke it out as Patriots (Blueside) vs Redcoats (Redside) in Revolutionary War themed PvP Arenas.
This is Massachusetts... they're all ghosts. Or zombies. Or zombie ghosts.

I think our Independence Day in CoT should fall on the anniversary of the game going live.

You all are missing something. A WATER SLIDE LOCATION! Like the Ski slope but with water slides! Luau!

Personal rules of good roleplay
1.) Nothing goes as planned.
2.) If it goes as planned it's not good RP
That would be awesome!
"I don't think you understand the gravity of your situation."
I vote for that too!!!

I suspect others would qualify too. There were those in the States who sided with the British even during the Revolutionary war, after all. (Although it looks like the 'one third sided with the British' was more hype than fact.)
There are probably other forces who would rather have the US be under someone else's control as well. :)
Alternatively, rather than making all villains British, if it's a special event, let players choose which side they're on for the showdown. It would shake it up vrs. a simple hero vrs. villain event.
Thoughts, anyone?

I noticed that last night, Zombie.. was like "..whaa.. I don't remember writing that. Must be the Excedrin again."
As for the Loyalists, my idea was something like Red Winter of Champions (A few members believe the Soviet Union should be re-established) and have them be dissenters that firmly held the belief that America (and other countries that left the former British Empire) all belong to England (perhaps this has been passed down from generation to generation?).
Star-Spangled Battle could go as you say, Ambi. Mine was just redside v blueside to make it easier to code for.
