Anniversary Finale is NOT Scarlet Crusade Finale... hopefully?

I really, really hope this isn't Steel Crusade's end. I hope Mechanon has at least 2 or 3 more plans ready to be deployed.

Just saying. :)

P.D: I know, I messed the thread's name.

    I think they mean they wanna see some more story content involving Mechanon down the line... Which I wouldn't mind :biggrin:

    Well yes. BUT this is it for THIS update. Anything more to do with Mechanon might not be for a while, probably two more content updates on par with this one.

    I suspect they'll be working on the other stuff they hinted at that will use the space station as a hub before they go to more Mechanon.

    A space invasion seems the next logical step since introducing Gateway opens up a lot. Either that or the introduction to the rivalry company to Harmon who made Gateway and stir up some superhero instability.

    It may be the last act of the Steel Crusade, it even approaches what is right power level for Mechanon when it gets serious, but it's very unlikely to be the last bit of story involving Mechanon ever.

    Mechanon is quite hard to destroy and really immortal even by standards of superhero comic books villains. You can never be sure if you managed to destroy it for good.

    I seem to recall reading that Steel Crusade was intended to be permanent content, as the first mission based out of the new Gateway hub. Time will tell, of course, if my recollection is accurate...

    The mission arc, including cislunar mechanon, is permanent.

    The Giant mechanon I don't think is, but it would make a great rampage if it was scaled down a bit.

    Correct on both counts. The mission is perm, the Meganon (just my nickname for it) is a temporary
    event.

    Pretty much this. Just like Mechanon was a hanging plot thread for a long time, now he goes back into the stable of story options. I doubt we've seen the last of him, but his immediate plans have been foiled.

    It would be interesting to see some extrasolar factories or a moon factory every now and then.

    We need to "visit" the Gadroon home world and "make contact" with whatever they have for A Supreme Intelligence...like Black Knight (Dane Whitman) "made contact" with the Kree Supreme Intelligence.

    Yeah, unfortunately this is it. Not with a bang, but a whimper. (some neat explosions half way through though, but all sound and fury signifying nothing).
    Squishy DPS builds that can solo QWZ w/videos.
    My super cool CC build and how to use it.

    Well... I can still Dream for Mechanon to appear during the Christmas Event and Turn Clarence into
    MECHA ULTRA CYBER CLARENCE

    Would be Cool~ :confused:

    Is Meganon coming back next year? If not, I think it was crap that his drop rates sucked so much.
