Get Bonuses and Build Your Character's Story



City
of Heroes Game Designer Phil Zeleski shared
information on the Day Jobs feature for the Issue 13 update to City
of Heroes
with Ten Ton Hammer. The new feature allows players to progress their
characters even when they are not playing. Look for more details from
Zeleski soon, but here is a snippet that gives an overview of the
system:

It's called
offline character progression, and while other games have done this
before, City of Heroes
takes it to a whole new level. Simply put, Day Jobs reward players with
additional powers and benefits when they log back in. This also gives
characters greater depth by allowing them to flesh out their identities
and back-stories.
