I'm kinda hoping ALL NPC outsider gangs are going to be turned into Zomibes. Along with ones that spawn on players to drop masks. I also kinda hope that last years masks are "for sale" via Vendor while new ones are awarded as loot from spawns.

It really doesn't seem fair on the players that *did* manage to keep last years masks, to have to wade through endless drops of them again in order to get new ones. And it doesn't seem fair to those that lost them to make them have to grind most of the "event" away in the hopes of getting them again. So it seems fair to sell the old ones, and make us collect newer ones via spawns =D

Who doesnt like the holiday events, that christmas holiday hat rocked and still rocks. 

Anyway the sentence that was interesting but on the other hand very annoying is this:

"Another is a new object type that we'll be able to build some gameplay around. It's something that was started on back in beta, but was never completed"

How much un-used content have you got, cos if you think about it, there is white hallways, theres Zen Master which we know the animations are done but the move itself is not balanced.  There is org specific abilities.  Theres also other stuff but being early in the morning and the fact that im getting late for work i really cant remember lol. 

But you all know theres quite a bit of half-baked ideas which just never made it in game.

I don't see Zen Master coming back. CR2 kinda made it redundant =/ Would be nice if some of the animations from it made it in as emotes though.

Glad to hear that everything is going to be so big this year for Hallowe'en! I just hope that all these ideas you're putting effort into manage to make it in-game, it would be a real shame if they didn't!

Still got my nightmare and succubus mask. If there will be zombies maybe they will be the ones who will spawn from the jack-o-lanterns this time. Also I hope the hardlines will have another halloween design, the last one wasn't that good.

That's what I thought it might be...BUT he said object, which to me implies it's more of a useable object like a sword or something (just for example, I know it's not) Rather than a feature.

Still it's got me really excited for future looking glasses! SMILEY

I doubt we'll have an NPC overhaul, if only for the fact that I don't like the idea of Rarebit lieing in the Ask A Dev thread. SMILEY

That power plant thing - that's one hell of an object, for sure.

Zombies seem highly likely, it seems. If that's the case, I ask only for a hell of a lot of movie references!
Hmm... how about instead of changing the world, they change us. I'm not talking about the Disguises, but actually changing the players into Zombies. We know they can definitely change the player look into a custom one for sure (the Million Cryptos event, along with the recent use of Unlimits in catching Beirn on Recursion). I can't be sure, but I don't know of many times it happened before - maybe they've finally nailed it down, and can put it in a viral package ala the Flame Virus (something that was concieved in Beta, eh!).

The bad thing for me is I'm going to bloody busy for this Halloween. Thankfully the MxO 'celebrations' last longer than a day. THere's this, school coursework, Guild Wars Nightfall, the Guild Wars Halloween celebration, and the possibility of going on holiday!

Thanks for the update Walrus, looking forward to these "suprises" you hopefully will have in store for us.
