Yes, I talked to the team and they thought we should keep the final mask a secret. I guess you'll just have to find out tomorrow.

So because a few people whine about it, you decide to not tell those of us who would have liked to known beforehand. Gee thanks. Could have just made a topic for it with a spoiler warning. People don't *have* to read it if they don't want to know. But then, same old same old. Just like the beta clothing fiasco huh....

Very nice! Are we getting any Update Notes? I thought this patch included things other than the Halloween stuff.
Freaking sweet!
I'd like to have the choice. I'd like to decide for myself if I wanted to read a thread that listed it (that was clearly marked with a spoiler warning) or not. Then again I'd like to know so I could decide if it were a mask I wanted to set aside time to try and get or not. Not all of us can spend every day and night glued to MXO. A little bit of information would help us plan our limited game time far better. Especially as it's a rare mask. God only knows how many days you'd have to spend to try and get it to drop. Having the choice of deciding if you want to know what it is before the fact would help far more than hinder any fun. Once again, you wouldn't have been forced to read it if you didn't want to know.

Once again, you wouldn't have been forced to read it if you didn't want to know.Unfortunately, I would. This is an MMORPG, which means there's more than you and I, and people would have posted the picture in other threads before the night's end. Thus, ruining it for ME and others who didn't want to know, therefore making more flames and such appear on the boards.

Besides, it'll be like System Shades and such. You'll only need to wait a few hours for someone to post in General Discussion "First to get .... !" and then you'll know what it is.
Ooooooh, pretty XD
Yeah and who needs a picture of it? Simply post its name. End of. If you don't want to know then stay away from the forums for a day - go do your school work, or play the game. See it works both ways. I know your next response will basically boil down to "But I want to eat my cake and keep it!" so no need to bother.
oooo freaky

If LESIG's identities became a simple matter of choice, eventually someone would simply begin using the knowledge in casual conversation, which isn't cool for people who chose not to learn the identities.
Or if you choose to read a book from beginning to end instead of skip to the end like someone else and he casually remarks about how Gandalf died or something, would you even bother keep reading, knowing the ending? (True story on my part, :P)

Picture.. name.. same thing in this sense. See, if the devs went out of their way and marked every topic with *spoiler* on it that had the name or picture, I'd be cool, but the damage has been done already. I think, in the end, it's THEIR decision on what is shown/takenout/putin.
Though, we have the same argument. You with the surprise, me with /face.

If anyone is making movies for this halloween call erace for the job i would LOVE to play the role off a zombie!!
too bad there only restricted to Camon and Mannsdale...
I so0o wasn't expecting the zombies to look that cool and uh scary! I thought they were gonna look like a typical redpill with uh white eyes and blood stains here and there. Devs, seriously, I *bleeping* love you. A job well done!
....Holy CRACK! 
That is better than what you see in CS: S. Almost rivals Res. Evil. : D
ANd just the day after getting TBP. Now I can do some zombie killing to some Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop AND The Black Parade. xD

Ill be honest although i was looking forward to halloween i thought the Zombies would look crap, tbh the image that came to mind is the zombies from Ocrina of Time (Zelda) you know they look like Zombies but no real detail or blood cos of age restrictions and other nonsense but that really does look good reminds me of Resident Evil which is a good thing.
Also thanks for leaving one mask secret!!!
...brainsss...brainsss...
Dang. Those things are ugly!
I'll just have to blow an extra hole in them!
Awesome work, devs, and to be honest I'm with Chuui in the mini-debate. Admittedly there is the issue of arsey players, but still - I'm a level 40 with a crap connection. I'm not expecting too many Rares coming my way.

Yeah. Looks like they can do all of them, like /wave and /blowkiss, other than the broken ones.

Mood Aggressive would suit them best I think. That'd make for proper mean HL-esque zombies
