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.
Go Sox.
I think they said a single city for all characters.
That's an interesting question. Although, IF we give Superheroes and Villains their own phasing zones (not exactly saying they should, just had a thought) - what happens to those who play Anti-Heroes and Anti-Villains? Will they have their own grey zone, or each separately? Either way, I'm sure the team will figure something out and we will be happy with the results.

If they do that, then I really hope they put a similar mechanic in the game as what was in Ulimate Spiderman. Whenever the player chose to use Venom - the villian - in the game, Venom would rampage around the city causing havoc until the cops caught up with him. The more cops he hurt, the more that would show up. Things would keep escalating until SHIELD would show up and lay the smack down on the lethal web slinger.
I like this idea for one reason: Villians always have the edge of not having to worry about the harm they cause others - reference this from every form of superhero media ever made ever - as such, if villain and hero players will be meeting on the streets they will both need a respective edge. Heroes will have the law on their side, villians will have ruthlessness. But what if you don't want to be a mass murdering world beater on the run from the cops? Be a rogue, the cops won't mess with you unless you mess with them. What if you don't want to have the world on your shoulders? Say "Cool story, Uncle Ben", and be a vigilante: come and go as you please.
I don't get mad, I restructure the laws of quantum physics and resolve the situation with temporal engineering.
If the alignment system works, being a villain will be a lifestyle choice and everything will be an instance.
Ditto being a hero.
If people won't pay enough to finance its creation, it is not worth creating.

Defining hero-only or villain-only zones has not been set yet. The leaning of the Devs at this point (which can change!) is to have all zones open to all 'alignments'. Zones that are more lawful/heroic would have NPCs openly hostile to 'villains'. Zones that are more chaotic/villainous would have NPCs openly hostile to 'heroes.' We're also looking into a 'reputation' system (i.e., your rep with regard to particular factions) such that if you have a good enough rep with a faction, they won't attack you on sight... unless you attack them (sort of like the 'yellow conning' factions of Praetoria). Also, your ability to wander freely in a zone could possibly (remember, nothing set in stone yet) rely on a civilian or secret identity and be compromised when you attacked an NPC in the open... or a player flagged for PvP (which might send you into an instanced PvP phase/zone).
Note that is is for open zones. There is likely to be instanced missions that are flagged for only those of a certain alignment.

Oh! Having Instanced Missions that are flagged for a certain alignment is a pretty good idea! ... Then again, I'm looking forward for players to go "LFG Stealing soney from an orpange!" on the Looking for Group-tab. ;)
