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.

Wrestling + StreetFighting vs General Brawling Power set

One addition I think would be terrific would be a distinction between a power set with Wrestling moves such as familiar grappling, bearhugs, clothes-lines and including judo and capoeira-inspired moves, and a more directly aggressive Street-Fighting power set, comprising boxing, kickboxing and muay thai-inspired moves.
Being able to specifically customize your toon/avatar as a wrestler or luchador compared to a kickboxer etc holds obvious appeal.

Thoughts?

I would think such a set as

I would think such a set as wrestling/judo/capoeira would require mechanics of throwing/grappling inanimate objects too. I haven't any programming experience or research, but i feel like picking up a car or rock or tree or box is a prerequisite to performing a hip-throw. That being said, I do hope we will be able to pick up/grapple objects and enemies in CoT, I'd always felt super strength wasn't complete without the ability to pick up cars and throw them at Hellions.
If throwing objects are implemented, I do hope the Devs take it to the next step and develop such a powerset.
I had left CoH (due to RL) before street righting was implimented, but being a martial arts expert who can throw thugs around like nothing is very different that a "street hero" who just boxes and kicks knees in.
The only problem I see is with AVs and Giant Monsters (if they get in, which would be AWESOME); does it make sense to toss Bat'Zul or Babbage around like nothing?

I think that the issue with

I think that the issue with Grappling is the anchor-points and making those work on differently sized bodies. And consider the difficulty of making those work with a character that can fly or leap? Suddenly, Mister Gripper is swept off his feet by The Kangaroo's prodigious jump. It would, probably only work, if the grappled-one was immobilized.

Be Well!
