Castle and BAB have been so chatty lately that some of you may have missed Positron's first post in a long while. Although it's a typical Positron tease, I figured some of you might want to check it out.

Theory is that Villains will be able to respec out of Patron Pools.

Other fanatics speculate Side-Switching....which is a bit beyond what is being implied...which is your statement.

SuckerPunch

My "fanatic" opinion is goes a little further than just Patron switching, to the possibility of choosing from the Hero APP sets as well.

We'll see in a few months :P

Tazhyngarth

True that!  Both Sides being able to pull from the other Sides PPPs...that'd be a cool thing to have.

Yeah, I think they need to be balanced to APPs and accessible at the same time. It seems he's definitely saying PPPs will be respecable, but having access to APPs would be spectacular.  :)

There's gotta be a limit, though.  Some things just gotta be villainous, and some things heroic.  I don't want heroes having access to PPPs, it makes no damn sense.  And if they don't get it, why give villains access to APPs?  We keep up that way, and we lose all sense of sides.

Well, it appears that it may be more then just Powers (whatever limit might be in play for that) that either Side will have access to.  Not that this says much about specifics, but one can speculate :P.

Does this mean I get some money back for buying villains or a free couple of months of play time?

Wishful thinking mate, those of us that already have both games get nothing new from this.

Err, rather I should say, nothing new that the rest of the Playerbase benefiting from this "Upgrade" won't be privy to.

Your $50 gave you 2 years of playing the game that others did not have.
