Hmm, the alternate blast animations are severely underwhelming. The Ice Blast ones are the exact same animation for at least three powers. That is pretty weak.
I wanted to update you on the release of Issue 19: Alpha Strike! The development team here at Paragon Studios has been working really hard to get Issue 19 to you as quickly as possible. Issue 19 comes with some pretty sweet improvements to the game as a whole and we know that you guys are really excited for it to go live (which, obviously, we are too).
Unfortunately, we’ve encountered what we in the studio call a “showstopper” bug that is keeping us from launching the update when we planned. Our goal is to release Issue 19: Alpha Strike! as soon as we can after the Thanksgiving Holidays (November 25th through November 28th). So you can start gearing up now for the content that Massively.com calls, “well worth the wait.”
Also, since I’m here, I want to do a shout out to all of the Beta Testers who put their time and energy into testing to help make this Issue great and help us iterate on features and find those bugs. Your ongoing feedback is essential to the development process and we will continue to monitor it as we get closer to the release of Issue 19. Thank you very much! You guys are awesome at finding these things and we really do appreciate it.
So I’m sad you’ll have to wait a bit, but I do wish you guys in the US a great Thanksgiving and thank all of you for kicking the crap out of our beta servers so that we can find these bugs in the first place.
Domination wasn't working if you weren't a villain. But I blame Squids

Do I look like the sort of man who'd go and find unsuspecting Japanese schoolgirls in short skirts and white panties and ask them if they want to see my "Cthulu Special"?

No i19 till after Thanksgiving bros.
Seriously ...but I've been occupied with work lately anyways, so I guess it's probably for the better.
Yeah I would actually be worried if CoX started selling lifetime subs

To be fair, does it actually say somewhere that it won't be a "store" wide sale?
Then go to the NCsoft store, where, everyone can buy some of the hottest City of Heroes(R) Booster Packs* for up to 50% off.
That sentence can easily mean "some of the ones on sale are really super cool!" rather than
"some of the packs we have available will be half off!"
Because I can't really see a reason for them to only have half of the packs on sale. There's only really 6 packs anyway. Why put a sale on for just three items?
You know... the week after I get Lego Rock Band, it drops to $20.
Two weeks after I get Going Rogue for $40, it drops to $10.
What's in the Mac item pack? Anything good? I could also pick up the Science pack.
the Mac item pack has the Valkyrie costume pieces, which are actually pretty cool
but get Science, not only for the cool masks but also for the ability to change your character's height/gender at the tailor, having different ones in different costumes
*Selected Booster Packs include: Cyborg Pack, Magic Pack, Science Pack, Good vs Evil Pack, Wedding Pack, Mac Item Pack, and 30-Day Jetpack
Oh god damn it, I already have all those except the Wedding Pack and even at half off I feel no desire to buy it.

Mac item pack also has the mission teleporter. Which, well, they're merging transit lines so it won't be quite as awesome to just bounce over to Mercy whenever, but getting to Hazard Zones will still be awesome easy. Or the shard. The stupid, glorious shard.

You can change your character's GENDER? I didn't know I needed this one until right now, and now I'm not sure I can wait until it's on sale. So much fun can be had with this.

Yeah, I'm totally getting the science booster. The gas masks in that are way better than the default ones, plus I've always wanted to change the heights of some of my older characters. I made them back before I realized how bizarre the scale can be in this game, so they're really short.

New Fire/Ice Breath one is good though.
edit: this is a familiar statement.....

Ah well. Guess I should pick up the Magic pack for the supercool costume pieces or something.
