Ask Cryptic

Cryptic Studios has published another edition of Ask Cryptic, where they answer questions about their upcoming superhero action MMO, Champions Online.

We've got some more Champions Online info for you, with answers about player mods, Xbox 360, the world of Champions Online, blocking, non-combat activities and knockback. Thanks very much to Jackalope, poz, Arkayne, Heretic and Absinthe for their answers!

There have been many mentions of tools being developed for player use, in terms of modding and creating content. Though player-generated content may not be viable on release, would it be reasonable to expect the players to submit content to Champions Online in the future, or an expansion? (Kalt)

Jackalope (Chief Creative Officer): Cryptic certainly believes that there's no better place to find creativity than the players themselves. And we do believe that user generated content is an important part of our future games. As time passes and our features become set, we'll certainly be introducing them to Champions Online players. While at the moment, Champions Online scratches the surface with the Nemesis system, costume creation, power selection and power customization, look to see us continue to open the door for more player-generated material.
