Champions Online State of the Game Letter

Powers Down! Powers Down!

It seems we have some very aberrant behavior in regards to certain enemies that can negate powers. The design is that certain enemies can knock you out of your travel power as a tactical maneuver, but it seems that a nasty bug has crept into the system. So not only are more enemy types than originally intended doing this, but they're also turning off other types of powers, including defenses! We're on it, and will have this sorted out ASAP.

That Whole Melee vs. Ranged / Air vs. Ground Thing

We are very aware of the balance issues in the game, including the disparities between melee and ranged attacks, as well as the differences in air and ground-based combat. We're currently pushing the final major changes to the Munitions power out to QA, and then the powers team / combat team will be rolling on to overall balance issues. We are currently implementing and testing solutions internally for these issues with the intention of getting solutions out to the beta testers as soon as possible. Keep letting us know what you're taking for builds, which powers seem over-balanced, and which ones feel good, as well!

You've Got Mail

The in-game mail system is live. You can access and transmit messages from anywhere in the world by clicking the envelope icon in your mini-map frame. If you want to pick up and send packages (items attached to emails) you need to go to an UNTIL terminal. They're not reading your mail or tracking your packages, so please hold your "I don't work for the man" comments. This is THEM working for YOU!

There's tons more to read so pop over to the Champions site and have a look.
