So, this Victorian Era content...

I'm a bit interested in it. Thing is, where'd it go? Halloween's in like 9 days, and I was thinking this was supposed to be a Halloween mission?

After seeing Jag's work... why isn't this a comic/adventure pack? It looks pretty awesome and I was even toying with the concept of a Victorian Era version of my toon- and is that a Confederate uniform I saw? I WILL TAKE IT PLZ.

Seriously, I'd rather wait and see this made into a comic pack than made into some cheap throwaway alert or open world mission that is finished in 10 minutes.

    If I may ask, where's that artwork you mentioned? Also: Where did this stuff go?

    As was mentioned in the other thread it might not be for this game as it's titled Unnamed Project and there are rumours of Cryptic to be starting development for a 4th game.

    Mother of god...

    I'd like to rephrase my question, if nobody minds: WHERE DID THIS STUFF GO???

    Well, nevermind that, but we were promised something like this:

    Terror in Time - Halloween Content
    - The villainous vampire Draycul Vladic travels back in time to foggy London to breed an army of vampires before the dawn of heroes?
    - Players will follow him to the past to thwart this plan, teaming up with the great ancestor of the current Black Mask
    - Rewards and associated content include the fashionable Victorian Steampunk costume set, Wolf Transformation Superspeed Travel Power and more!

    BTW, shouldn't it be Vladic Dracul? Or is old Vlad so rad now that he needs a 'y'?

    That art was for another game entirely.
    Brou in Cryptic games.

    Probably be seeing good old Vlad in Halloween '14.

    Those concept pics kind of remind old Nightmare Creatures 2 game. And the raggedy protagonist Herbert Wallace.

    Some Victorian steampunk content would be really cool.
    Detective style content should be prominent over grinding, like with the Darkhawk content.
    An alternate history (?) using the gate that starts the Resistance series would be a likely scenario.
    This could be great fun. Airship pirates, strange new advances in medicine and technology- some with unforeseen consequences, class conflict, exploring strange ruins. A Victorian alien invasion scenario could be interesting, and provide the catalyst for superhuman transformation and strange, new technologies.
    Either way, please make a Victorian steampunk Moon Base Hideout!
    Would cannons be the main means of traveling between planets?

    PW/Cryptic decision-making process:

    "Okay, we have to choose one or the other: Content or Lockboxes?"

    "Lockboxes."

    Now, further apply this same principle for every other monthly pony-show, and you will no longer be surprised to get a lot of grandiose promises packaged along with the newest pony-hair dye.
