Cryptic has graced their fans with another series of Ask Cryptic which takes questions from the average Joe and addresses them. This week has a strange but interesting grouping including music, emotes, and roleplaying. With an announced launch date coming in July, we expect to see plenty more of these in the near future.

Are you planning on expanding the 3-hit combo combat system, perhaps not at launch, but further down the line?(Saikyo-RyuHatman)

Powers that go in multiple hit combos within the same button are that way for aesthetics as much as anything else. The idea is that every character has 10 or 15 different combos based on the interactions of the different buttons in their trays. The fact that individual buttons go through one, two or three hit combos tends to be very button specific. The fighting powers are all built to be three hit combos simply because the first hit is very good efficiency for damage and energy, and the second and third hits (it rotates between those two) are very low efficiency on damage but they generate energy at the same rate. So, if there’s a good reason to expand on that we will, but right now there are no plans do so.

You can find the entire piece over at Cryptic's official site!
