Infinite Customization, Infinite Possibilities, Infinite Deadpools

Posted by GM_Destra

"IP Violations" - player-created characters that infringe upon the intellectual property rights of other companies, are currently the most common issue that Cryptic GMs currently handle.

In Champions Online, we have in-game policies which state that you can't create characters that are exactly the same as popular comic book, anime characters, video game characters, etc. However, with a tool that provides you with nearly unlimited flexibility to create nearly any character your imagination could possibly come up with, the temptation to create super saiyan Goku replicas is far too compelling for many of our players to resist.

Zombie Apocalypse PvP

Posted by Lucid

It should come as no surprise that we at Cryptic love zombies--they're menacing, they're expendable, and they're great for solving puzzles in Scribblenauts. As we work on the upcoming Blood Moon event, though, there are enough Halloween-related events going on that when I talk about the Zombie Apocalypse I need to be clear *which* Zombie Apocalypse I'm referring to.
