[B]Planet Calypso Announces The Harbinger Event[/B]

They can have my laser when they pry it from my cold, dead hands

GOTEBORG, Sweden, Oct. 29 /PRNewswire/ – GameBlast –

First Planet Company, developer and publisher of the largest real money Massively Multiplayer Online Game, announced today The Harbinger Event. This major event, which will ultimately allow the players to determine its outcome, will take place from November 9th until early December.

In this limited time event, which will unfold in several stages, Calypso’s colonists will face a new and evolved enemy invading the landscape of Calypso. Under direction from the military, colonists will have to recon, hunt and repel a technologically advanced new nemesis. Is this relentless foe only here to hunt humans, or is it a harbinger for something far worse?

The Harbinger Event will feature new enemies to fight, a gripping storyline complete with new missions, a new environment, and an ending determined by the players. Colonists will be able to participate and find rare and valuable new items during the event. Those who take up the Harbinger challenge will also receive a special diploma from the Calypso Defense Forces documenting their part in the largest battle for survival ever seen on this planet. Since Planet Calypso is free to download, anyone can simply download the client and get started defending the world.

To me it sounds like another uber only event… Let’s hope it won’t be that way but since the Harbinger participants will get a gift it’ll prolly only be for ubers… again… :frowning:
How bout for once make something where even agi 1 noob can participate on the same lvl as the ubers… But i guess that will never happen, to bad actually…

Awesome! I have a week off then to go hard defending the planet!

Sounds interesting, new mobs eh.

Starts oiling my gun up for the new threat.

PS
I also hope everyone this time gets the chance to loot said items, and not just the big names, am also weary that rare items seems to be in the last mob, only a few can kill.
Yes, I know, they pay more in game, but thats the catch, they already have the equipment already to kill the big ass mobs.

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII no retreat no surender!!! :smiley:

Sounds intresting :slight_smile:
Now i just need a shitload of peds so i can jump in to the heat ;p

FYI: for the newer colonists of calypso, the hydra event is nothing like eu’s epic events, I’d anything it was just a prologue to it. The main events happen on a much much larger scale

11

hope they’ve rested and fed the server hamsters properly this time round…

Summary:

  • new mob will come
  • new missions added for it
  • end date unknwon

Was there a “design a new mob” recently, after the Proterons?

In a different thread, there was a reference to 62 hit with no armor. So … approximately as tough as Droka, or maybe 1 gen tougher. But … it will very much depend on damage type and dodger level.

16

This better not happen; I am hoping it will be all-inclusive. I hope everyone has a shot at these uber items.

17

Very interesting, i hope this lives up to expectations :smiley:

18

cool , maybe some warrants will log back in again …
