First new framework in Champions Online to be the celestial framework

Remember that framework we mentioned yesterday? The new one that Champions Online was adding, but we didn't know what it was? The one that we mentioned was made of light but wasn't the power of light? Yes, well, thanks to an educated guess, combined with luck, combined with twitter, we've gotten the confirmation that this is, indeed, an update to the current celestial sorcery framework.

Celestial sorcery is the power of the angels and heaven, so a certain writer on a certain MMO news staff is currently running around screaming in her apartment like a crazy person. This writer may or may not work for us, but odds are that she does and that she's rubbing it in Kyle Horner's face. Booyah.

What tipped us off on the framework? The two glowing comets of light in the above picture on the left side are already used in one of the current celestial powers, specifically the self-buff. Plus, you know, it's not exactly a hard jump from "light" to "celestial." Still, those who wield the powers of beyond will be happy to know that their small pool of skills will certainly become larger later this year with this first update. Look for more information on the Celestial framework next week, as the developers make it available.

Cool.

I hope they release more powers on a constant basis. It'll help keep people interested and maybe get more people to buy extra character slots. But it they keep releasing new power sets then I'm sure a lot of people will be happy.

Haha. The second I heard about this, I thought to myself, "Sera is going to spaz."

And lo and behold. ;)

It's good to see that power development isn't going to cease at launch.

Is the writer named Sissy Spacek? You can tell me...if I guessed right I'd like a lifetime subscription.

That's amazingly fast turnaround. I have to wonder if this is something that just barely missed shipping with the final product or if we're going to be seeing additions like this on a regular basis. Because if they can keep tossing goodies into the mix and not unbalance the game? Awesome.
