City Of Heroes: Issue 15 Goes Live
The latest free content patch for City of Heroes, “Issue 15: Anniversary”, has gone live.
The new patch sees the return of the “Fifth Column” enemy group to the main plot of the game. The Fifth Column were originally removed back in “Issue 3″ to appease critics who took issue with the enemy group’s makeup… the Fifth Column is run by super-powered Nazis.
That’s right. People were upset that a video game had Nazis for villains. Comic book super villains, no less. Pants on head retarded, but there it is.
Anyway, nearly four years later, the stink has worn off, and we get to kick some Nazi asses again. In addition to the full return of the 5th Column, we also get “Costume Change Emotes”, which you can use to switch between your character’s costume sets. Personally, I’m hoping for a Kamen Rider-esque Henshin. (crosses fingers)
Other new features include 20 new faces, new costume sets, and an improvement to the game’s Architect tools, which allow players to create and share their own missions with others. A more complete list of changes can be found at the link below.
And with that, I’ve got some Aryan Asswipes to bop around. See you in Paragon City!
Again, the 5th column returned in the issue with the hero\villain co-operative Roman zone. Also “pants on head retarded”. I thought writers came up with tier own material? I guess Yahtzee wont mind too much.
@You suck:
To be fair, at the very start of the press release for Issue 15, Paragon Studios writes: “Our latest free content update, Issue 15: Anniversary, introduces a wealth of new content and features, including the revival of one of our most popular villain groups, The 5th Column!”
So take your issue up with the devs, not Bob.
