New iTCG Set 4 info - randompeep - 2008-08-09
The only iHints referring somewhat to Krakia are T-1337 iHints. So, no Krakia, likely. We may get an expanded Krakian Jungle, though.
Stirgeman...(lol) I can believe in this one, but where would he go, though? (I think toward the top of Affluent Tower.)

Krakia is in the Krakian Jungle.
They have the same name for a reason.

I said an expanded Krakian Jungle. We can have the jungle, but not Krakia. (much like right now, maybe?
) ie get the Typhon...

What does that have to do with anything?
edit: oh wait, you're saying its a kind of Terminator?
New iTCG Set 4 info - Cheez - 2008-08-09
Yes, yes I do. Thank you for catching on >_>
It's just a sort of play on words... except with numbers. We people on the internet know the number well, so we can relate to it.

As for Stirgeman, I think they are spoofing Batman, because, again, they want to gain our attention.
(since batman just came out it would make sense they would put it in here)
...and I think it does say stirge on a string and stirgeman cape
As for the iHints, I will try an PM Adroo for pics of the Ice Golem and pics of the iHints.
I still doubt that we will get Coke Town in the next patch.
CokeTown in next patch?WHAT THE FAK?
Nahh..it will take some months/years.
Also,get a Set 1 Starter Deck and you will see at the Rules,there's a Coketump
!OMG HINT?!?!??!?
NO!

Ahem.
NxProse Wrote:While Crimsonwood Keep always has been my most favorite of the hinted expansions, (I suppose mostly because of the veil of mystery that has slowly been lifted since the TCG came out.) I remain curious if some of the other areas we've heard of might also be packed in to this expansion, such as the Yetinx, Affluent Tower, or Krakia? (A simple "yes" or "No" will suffice for this question, I know you can't give details.)
None of the areas you mentioned are directly expanded in the new update. As far as Maps go. This answer will become clearer once this chapter is completed.

LOL I can imagine T 1337 being a boss in Krakia or a npc, I wonder how it looks like.

I said: I doubt Coke Town will be in next patch.
Doubt means I dont think it will happen. :f6:
I dont think it will be in this next patch, but maybe we'll keep getting Coke town hints untill we get it.

as on the t-1337 thing, and with the terminator, I say that the t stands for that.
I mean with stirgeman-batman and therer being the batman movie out now, they are making a terminator move soon. possible reference?
New iTCG Set 4 info - Afrobean - 2008-08-09
I'm a little surprised the person who came up with the name "t-1337" didn't go for the "delete" pun and make it "d-1337".
I suppose that kills the T-XXXX theme of terminator, but it infuses Internet humor and computer tech language. Especially since the computer analogue to death would be deletion.
Not saying this is real, just saying the person who came up with the name could have gone somewhere else with it. Also, I'm glad to see American pop culture characters potentially being lampooned. With the Super Sentai in Omega Sector, I had thought "gee, I wonder if Spider-man or Superman or Batman will ever pop up in Maple under a similar guise". Stirgeman is a great take on it too... If nothing else, I hope that part alone is accurate. I just hope they can make him serious, dark, and brooding, and don't take their Batman cues from the '60's camp.
EDIT: Oh and about the Coke thing, I'm pretty sure that if Nexon America had a deal with Coke (which they would HAVE to if they were to release COKE-based content that uses Coke's IP), we would have heard about it by now. Like when they were working with MTV. It's not like MTV just started showing Audition ads one day and we had no idea, we heard long before that they were in cahoots.

Spider-Man-> Trixter Man?
meh, just an idea...

hmm, what about superman and the hulk
[edit: was a little behind... I only just now saw the scans and I thought they hadn't yet been posted. Rest of my post is still relevant, so I'll just add in this disclaimer here]

If fake, this is a damn fine fake. Not just creation of fake cards with fake text, but original artwork as well. I'm going to go out on a limb and call these legit. Only thing I'm wary of is that they didn't scan the Ice Golem one.
Edit: read center one for a confirm on the Stirgeman idea.

Nonono! WolfSpiderman!
Back to the topic, did we ever get any scans?
New iTCG Set 4 info - Erich - 2008-08-09
the scans were a few pages back in this topic, and I pointed out the new iTCG items on the center card stirge-on-a-string and stirgemans cape.
New iTCG Set 4 info - Itachi54647 - 2008-08-09
Im going to PM Androo for pics of the Ice Golem and the iHints. I also wanna see if these are legit.
New iTCG Set 4 info - Anon-RedI - 2008-08-09
Maybe all of this stuff goes back to the interview where they said "American pop culture"...such as T-XXXX being the terminator and their being superheros in the big city such as NLC...anyone else think so?

What do you guys think about the "Stirge-on-a-string"? Batarang analogue? Throwing star? One hand sword that works in a way similar to the way the 1h sword whips work?
And for the comments on posts I missed:
xDae Wrote:Why would we want Coke Town? Its nothing but mediocre quests and training areasCoke town could be easily made worthwhile by changing the stats. It could also be expanded upon and/or adapted into Masteria.
When an area is terrible, there are really only two reasons for it. Too far out of the way (like Omega Sector), or the stats of enemies aren't worthwhile enough. They can make Coke Town worthwhile just by making the exp from the monsters actually worth fighting (or by including great drops), and making it accessible enough to people in the right level range. Either way, it's all meta, and EASILY changeable to be made to be good.
randompeep Wrote:I still don't believe the T-1337 thing. Even if Nexon uses internet phrases on their iTCG, they have never used one as the name of a monster.One of the Versalmas mouse's reindeer was named "Pwnzor". They're obviously computer nerds working on this stuff, so it's not all that surprising things would slip into lore. I wouldn't even be surprised to see references to popular memes, like including the phrase "over 9000!" in a NPC dialogue, or maybe a NPC that says "Madness? This is KRAKIA".
