I'm smelling a new Time Capsule...

    What do you expect the next TC will contain?

    First, I hope they will change the structure of the TC once again, the Kryptonian TC made it harder to get the collections.
    Second, better styles. The rewards for completting the collections were awfull, at least for me. The hair styles were "fine", could have been better. And flamebird gear was okay, not the best style but it was something different.
    Oh, and no more artifacts inside TC...I just don't like them.

    In summary, I think we got lower quality content in last TC, I hope to get something better in the next one.

    Please, don't complain in this thread, I know "we all hate TCs", but there are other 2 or 3 active threads complaining about it, I just want to discuss about the styles and the content inside TCs.

    Also, a quote from Mepps.

    Strongly disagree, I think how they did the Kryptonian capsule was the best yet. I’ll take one less layer of RNG any day.

    As far as contents...I don’t care one way or another. I’ll get what I can and leave the rest.

    I think this recent structure was more RNG friendly. I felt I was getting more from what I opened compared to previous Time Capsules. I was not a fan of the reactive gear, the concept is cool but the overall styles were not impressive. Firesoul style was nice, the head and back are definitely my new favorites. The hair styles are great, I'm hoping they come out with another hair pack on the mp.
    Artifacts in the TCs are a huge mistake in my opinion. I would rather they tie new artifacts to episodes and events. Coercing players to open 15 TCs for a feat and an artifact was not the direction I thought they would go in.
    Were there any Easter eggs that stood out in this recent episode that could be a clue to the next time capsule theme?

    Well, Mepps has said it’s not Titans related; and the timing would put it likely sometime in September (time caps usually come in a range of every 8 to 12 weeks). Time caps usually (but not always) have some tie to current content or a DC media event.

    If they went the full 12 weeks this time, that would put the release somewhere around the last week of September - one week before the Halloween event goes live. So could it be magic related?

    DC Comics has a five week event starting on October 3 called “The Dark Witching Hour”:

    Kryptonian TC didn't make it harder to get collections.

    Old TC: open 3 TC, get 1 Collector's box out of those. Get to choose 1 out of 3 collection pieces out of that Collector's box.
    total: opened 3 TC, got 1 collection piece

    Kryptonian TC: open 3 TC, get the choice of 1 collection piece from each.
    total: opened 3 TC, got 0-3 collection pieces depending on your choice

    I hope they keep the structure or continue improving it. Kryptonian TC is pretty good imo. Maybe no artifacts associated with the next capsule though...

    Witchmarked WW could be a cool style. Not sure how it would translate to males though. Personally hoping for Ocean Master, esp. his head piece.

    The hair would be interesting. Make it color tintable and it’s kinda like Starfire hair.

    Nah sorry. You're not smelling any new time capsule. I had some funky burritos earlier. Just kidding. :p

    Anyways, I do hope they come out with some good ones soon. I could use some new ones to make some money. I'm flat broke and could use some cash.

    In case anyone is wondering, I wasn't finding any use out of the Kryptonian caps. So whenever I had a bunch of them, I just sold a couple of them for a cheap price and made some quick cash. Until they became unpopular that is.
  15. Plowed In Loyal Player

    Nope, not wondering...too self-absorbed. :p :)

    Have to agree, the Kryptonian capsule set up was a lot more friendly.

    I don't like forcing us to open a certain amount to get the artifacts...but that's about my only gripe.

    Most time capsules reliably drop every 8-9 weeks. If it follows the same pattern, we should see another one by August 22/29th, since the last one dropped June 27th.

    So you're asking what the fill-in capsule will be before the Atlantean Capsule?

    I'm not sure there will be one. Kryptonian is still rolling.

    It won't be a time capsule. It will be a booster bundle filled with powerset materials, powerset hairstyles and powerset artifacts (one for each powerset).

    No, its not. People don't want them anymore.
