<a href="http://www.champions-online.com" style="font-style: italic;">Champions Online</a> is a fun game, but it still needs work like any recently released MMO. Some of these needs are purely subjective on my part, but others are definitely a necessity. The way I see it, if <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Cryptic/">Cryptic</a> can work these changes in before the end of the year they're well on their way to keeping my subscription into the far, far future.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/09/28/the-digital-continuum-champions-online-needs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>The Digital Continuum: Champions Online needs...</em></a></p><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/2009/09/28/the-digital-continuum-champions-online-needs/">The Digital Continuum: Champions Online needs...</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:00:00 EST.

<a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/08/28/next-champions-power-framework-is-light/">Remember that framework</a> we mentioned yesterday?  The new one that <a href="http://www.champions-online.com"><em>Champions Online</em></a> was adding, but we didn't know what it was?  The one that we mentioned was made of light but wasn't the power of light?  Yes, well, <a href="http://twitter.com/sera_brennan/status/3604598309">thanks to an educated guess</a>, combined with luck, combined with twitter, <a href="http://twitter.com/CrypticArkayne/status/3616102289">we've gotten the confirmation</a> that this is, indeed, an update to the current celestial sorcery framework.<br /><br />Celestial sorcery is the power of the angels and heaven, <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/08/24/anti-aliased-im-a-champion-and-so-can-you-part-deux/">so a certain writer on a certain MMO news staff</a> is currently running around screaming in her apartment like a crazy person.  This writer may or may not work for us, but odds are that she does and that she's rubbing it in <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/bloggers/kyle-horner/">Kyle Horner</a>'s face.

Just the other evening, <em><a href="http://www.champions-online.com">Champions Online's</a></em> lead designer <a href="http://twitter.com/CrypticArkayne">Randy Mosiondz</a> teased followers on Twitter with <a href="http://twitter.com/CrypticArkayne/statuses/3594180286">an image of one of the powers</a> from an upcoming new power framework -- or power set if you like. According to Randy, light isn't <a href="http://twitter.com/CrypticArkayne/status/3594311035">too far off from the right guess</a>, but we're guessing there's more to it than that. Another cool thing we've learned from Mr. Mosiondz's Twitter account is that an October event of some variety <a href="http://twitter.com/CrypticArkayne/status/3585232041">will be occurring</a> as well.<br /><br />So that means about two months after launching <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Champions-Online/">Champions Online</a></em>, <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Cryptic/">Cryptic</a> is planning to provide players with at least one additional new set of powers plus some kind of event, although we don't know the details on it for the moment. Sounds like the party train is leaving earlier than most may have thought, which is only a good thing.<br /><br />We should know more sometime very soon (as in later today, most likely) so keep your eyes peeled!<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/2009/08/28/next-champions-power-framework-is-light/">Next Champions power framework is... light?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 28 Aug 2009 09:00:00 EST.
