A Circle of Fifths - 5th Anniversary TF/SF Dev Diary
May 27, 2009 - 6:40am
While browsing around over at Ten Ton Hammer, I found this little nugget of info that I hadn't seen anywhere else.
It's a dev diary with Bruce Harlick and it discusses the new TF and SF that's part of I15. It's got some spoilerish info, but then you'd have to be really out of the loop as well for it to be that big of a spoiler.
But there are some cool screenshots from the TF as well.
Maybe we'll get to run these later today if the dev team decided yesterday that it's all good to push to test (thanks to Avatea for that heads up too).

I'm a little disappointed that the TF/SF's will be for 45-50 characters.
Well, not so much that those will but rather that there doesn't look like there will be new content for lower levels. They want to do really cool things, and I understand why that's more possible with higher level baddies. Honestly, I wouldn't want to beat up Reichsman with my lvl 6 Empath. That just wouldn't work, but it would be nice to draw new players in and old players into lower levels by introducing some new stuff. Posi and Synapse could both be redone, Boomtown needs a revamp, etc.
But I might just be moaning because it means only being able to use my 50's, and because I usually miss out when the SG is running TF's.

I'm pretty excited by this. Great find, Razor.
I kind of wish that the introduction of Reichsman came with a Boomtown update but I understand why it didn't. The word on the official forums is that the TF and SF are actualyl pretty boring, but it's also beta so we'll see how that develops.
