We... we just got a completely new profession with only 4 people working on it, and you guys are already complaining about stuff being late.
Jeez, even KJ is being more optimistic than all y'all....

And John seems to like some of my rants when I'm not, so I'm going to count those as optimistic as well.

How now brown cow.
This is interesting...
Lets hope it is indeed the hero update. It'll make playing Dervish more fun with a really amazing hero set up.
Triple Derv and Triple Para and 2 randoms is what I'm gonna run. Awwww yea.

Veterans without Hero's (Before Nightfall came out) had it easy. Crappy Henchmen or form a PUG. Most went with PUG, heck I was in one just for one quest to get to Kaineng City. PUGs doing quests? Long dead. (Except for Elite Areas like UW, FoW and DoA)
Im Gunna Run Sabway + Spiritway at the SAME TIME, and a few Dervs to mix things up a bit. Unless the update is released on April 1st as sumone said.

so i prefer 7 hero teams at all, except for deep and urgoz(scroll down), as those may be too hard or impossible (for me) with just heroes and no players (seen em both once)
anyway, glad nicholas got fixed, and yea, lets hope the 7 hero will be this week then all my GW chars will be used again (even my melee, which i'm bad at)
its about UI usage, well, 7 hero teams is that, but maybe some more useful stuff for at least pve, maybe "GH showing pve OR pvp versions of skills" or other ideas which will help
i have faith in stumme (which i didnt have at previous anet krews)
lets wait a bit longer then
ps. its weird(not really), stumme first said: get ready to fill up your team with heroes at the survey, yet this is on his wiki talk:

It's 7. The Elite areas for Factions were very particular in their design, that different party members would need to do/bring certain things. Having people trying to solo them is just going to highlight that, and make for a limiting/frustrating experience. I think it's ok to say that there are some places that you still need to bring a friend along, especially considering the number of places people can get to that they couldn't before they had 7 heroes.

thought i'd give this info, in case
i'm just as happy as before i read this

Vets had it "easy" mostly because hard mode didn't exist, and henchmen didn't exist in elite zones either. The horrible henchmen builds could barely handle normal mode, running them in HM is just asking for trouble.

So what's Embark Beach all about? Oh, I'm the only person to remember about that. My bad.
Don't hold your breath with 7 heroes until at least after St.Patrick's Day. Oh, I'm the only person to remember about that event too. My bad.
Kudos to those who remembered too.

Back in my day all we had was henchmen and we were fine with it...well except for Alesia. Wh they haven't made Alesia not suck I don't know. I'll probably still take henchmens after the update because they're guaranteed to be able to take care of practically anything under the sun if you use them right. Best of all you don't need to give them runes or even spend time copy n pasting builds or coming up with builds. They just work.
It's more like "Save Yourselves" how did all us veterans do it when we had to actually take damage.

The real reason vets had it harder is because we couldn't flag henchmen. Now if shit hits the fan, you can make the henchmen bail no questions asked.

I don't know what game you were playing, but I do recall back in 2005 is was easy as crap to run through GW with henchmen. I made myself a lot of money charging people 200k for a run through Prophecies, which was easily done with myself + henchies. I've never had an issue with the AI, I just paid attention to how it worked and made it work for me. Pugging wasn't my first choice for doing things, pugging is what I did when I was bored and looking for a change of pace. I feel the same way about 7 heroes that I do about 4 - they have their uses for a percentage of the player base, but it's really not necessary & makes an already easy game even easier. I suppose for some this will increase the "fun" aspect, but for me it's really nothing to write home about.

Since it was partially slipped in to the last update, I'm hoping the "xp since death" thing will be fully implemented next.
UI update, hm? Dare I get my hopes up that minions might be easier to target?
Naah, nobody's even hinted at that, and it's not like players are all rabid for such a change.

I would love to have such an update. As it stands now a Hero MM is superior to a player MM. The ability to target minions would bring the Jagged Bones bomber build to player necromancers.

Not that it would affect me too much; I would still use Order of Undeath.
Although I would like the feature nonetheless.

hmm I've always used 6 heroes though I play with 2 accounts. only challenge is using 2 keyboards and 2 mice at the same time. not that hard considering I used to play 4 accounts on City of Heroes at the same time.
