City of Heroes announces Guest Author Program for Mission Architect
No doubt it's Champions Online that seems to be getting the superhero MMO headlines of late in the gaming press, both for the new title's release and for some of the issues they've had in relation to that launch. But competition is generally a good thing from a gamer's perspective, and City of Heroes is also stepping up their game, particularly in regards to the Mission Architect. When the devs introduced the Mission Architect to City of Heroes, it was their first step towards embracing player-generated content and adding new dimensions to the game experience. They've announced that the next step with Mission Architect is to have a Guest Author Program where "comic book notables try their hand at mission design." NCsoft says the program will "invite influential writers and aspiring game or story designers" to collaborate with the City of Heroes devs and bring these missions into the game.
Captain Dynamic confronts the Great Face in episode three
In the third installment of the City of Heroes-based Captain Dynamic series created by Rooster Teeth, the good old Cap'n must deal with the villainous, uh, villainy of his arch-nemesis the Great Face! We'd tell you how it ends, but that'd be a form of cruelty too high even for the likes of GF, as Cap'n D calls him. So, instead, we'll simply tell you how awesome this episode (and series) is and how you should really go check it out below the cut.We really mean it, like... right now. Not tomorrow, or after lunch -- unless you've got a burrito, because those turn pretty nasty once they're cold.Ahem. Just check it out.
Captain Dynamic is at it again in episode two
He's baaaaaaack! We catch up on Captain Dynamic and his crew of mission specialists in part two of this hilarious three-part miniseries. This time he's ready to show off some wicked shape shifting abilities and fills us in on what makes him so dynamic and captain-y. Did you know captains can marry two people on a ship? One would think a license would be required to do that, but perhaps being supremely dynamic supercedes the law in this case. We also catch a startling glimpse of his arch-nemesis, the Great Face!Captain Dynamic was created by Rooster Teeth (the same guys who produce the Red vs. Blue Halo machinima) to promote City of Heroes' upcoming Issue 14 update. A big part of this free update will be the new Mission Architect system where players can create missions that other heroes and villains can run for experience.Check out the entire second episode below the cut!
Captain Dynamic wants you to touch his 'awesome button'
We'd like to take this moment and declare our love for Rooster Teeth, because they have once again created something wonderful (probably by touching their awesome button) for City of Heroes' upcoming Mission Architect system.This is the first episode in a three part mini-series entitled Captain Dynamic, and it's basically about the very cool create-your-own-mission tools coming in the free Issue 14 update. So we hope you enjoy it as much as we did, because we really enjoyed it. Actually, yeah, we may need to see a doctor about the searing pain in our sides.Check out the entire first episode just below the cut!
