Just when you thought the <a href="http://www.cityofheroes.com"><em>City of Heroes</em></a> character creation process wasn't involved enough, we get word that the power customization in the upcoming Issue 16 will definitely include the ability to change the color of your powers at creation. We had previously  <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/06/23/power-customization-teased-at-for-city-of-heroes/">heard that this may be the case</a>, but <a href="http://www.cityofheroes.com/news/game_updates/issue_16/issue_16_overview.html">a new Issue 16 overview</a> on the <em>CoH</em> website confirms it.<br /><br />This recent news also includes much more information on enhanced difficulty settings and the proliferation of powersets among all Archetypes, allowing more types of players to possess more powersets. Check out <a href="http://www.cityofheroes.com/news/game_updates/issue_16/issue_16_overview.html">the entire overview of <em>Issue 16: Power Spectrum</em></a> for more information.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/16/paragon-studios-details-issue-16-power-customization/">Paragon Studios details Issue 16 power customization</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Thu, 16 Jul 2009 19:00:00 EST.

We've always operated under the assumption that <em><a href="http://www.coh.com">City of Heroes</a></em> was designed in such a way that power customization would be very difficult. So a recent forum post hinting by lead designer Matt "Positron" Miller showing that it's apparently happening makes this news all the more interesting.<br /><br />Of course, all we get are <a href="http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&amp;Number=13647533&amp;page=0&amp;fpart=1&amp;vc=1&amp;nt=6">a couple screenshots of purple and blue imps</a> to tease us, but then again what else do you really need to know right now? Well okay, we suppose you could know how colorization works and if it's something that's done only during character creation or at any time while playing. It would also be nice to know the extent that powers could be customized, too.<br /><br />We'll just have to wait until July to hear more about Issue 16. So until then, dream about <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/City-of-Heroes/">City of Heroes</a></em> in whatever color you like -- even made up ones!<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/06/23/power-customization-teased-at-for-city-of-heroes/">Power customization teased at for City of Heroes</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 23 Jun 2009 17:00:00 EST.
