We signed onto City of Heroes this afternoon — me, for the first time in a few weeks. The Halloween event is in full swing, of course.
We brought on Fazenda and Araware — two of our oldest toons — and managed to ding 30 in a few hours of Trick-or-Treating and Zombie-bashing.
We also tried out the Halloween Event — banners and fiends and XP, oh my! It wasn’t clear what we were supposed to do with the Deadly Apocalypse thingie. Paragonwiki has more details — it’s complicated, but kind of cool once the details are spelled out. We’ll see if we do something with it next time around.
I was going to log in to CO to give the Blood Moon event a look-see, but it’s taking forever to apply the 705MB patch that downloaded in seconds. LotRO, here I come.
I hope the CoH Halloween event is better than the CO one. We are given no instructions, but are left to flail about. Chat is filled with “Where do I go?” and “What do I do”?” (including several from me). When we get to a portal, we find ourselves with a reset timer with over an hour left on it.
*sigh*
Sadly, I’ve not been on either event, but my recollection from the Big CO Opening Event was that it wasn’t very well, um, organzied.
