Ok so the news it a little late but it appears that cryptic studios has sold the rights fully to the once City of Heroes/Villains partner NCSoft. What does this mean for it's subscribers? We for starters were going to so a tripling of the production staff and obviously a much larger budget. Those subscribers that currently only had one side of the game (either CoH or CoV stand alone) prior to Nov. 9th with get full access to the other side of the wall. Currently you can buy a combo pack with both titles for $20 in most retail stores. Those at NCSoft have stated that they are going to be more in touch with the player base as production continues on this awesome franchise.
I was a part of SWG and the debacle that lead to its miserable downfall. As such I was quite concerned when I learned of this transaction, but many may be happy to learn that pretty much the entire dev team for cryptic are being brought under the wing of NCSoft as this product is where their passion lies.
There really hasn't been a better time for people to subscribe for the first time or resubscribe with issue 11 on the horizon. I feel like we are going to continue to see good things from this dev team. way to go guys!
