Talk:Echo: Dark Astoria

Badges for the Echo

Is there any way for the badges on the page to show the old values (pre I22)? Having the new values showing on the page does nor reflect Echo:Dark Astoria.

I could manually put them in, not using any template... or .. ??? (Ideas?)

If you earn the badge in Echo: Dark Astoria, it has the new description doesn't it? I'd argue that having the new values show up does reflect Echo: Dark Astoria. The old values are noted on the individual badge pages (or at least it was on the one I checked). What you're suggesting might be appropriate if we made a third article "Dark Astoria (Pre-Issue 22)". If they do get included, I think it should be in a separate section in addition to showing the current texts. -- Sekoia 06:44, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

ahh, I see. My thinking is that as it stands, the badge text on the page contradicts the other content on the page, which I find confusing; and I am thinking 'echo' refers to past, so the past value of the badges ought be shown. as it's going back in tiome or whatever...

perhaps any echo could have an additional section added listing the past contents of the badges? (or show the old values noting they changed?)

not a fan of having pre-isse 22 page as well, for just this purpose. Taosin 04:01, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

The "Echo" isn't the past. It's currently available in the present. Having the badges from before Issue 21 updated the text. Obtaining the badges today grants the new text. ~ User:Aggelakis/Sig1 04:19, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

That isn't technically correct, Agge. The Echo -is- the past... as far as game lore is concerned. It is a version of a place preserved from a period of time before a major change by the Menders. However, that does not change any of the information you provided regarding the badges. Because badge text being changed is meta-game stuff, in this case. —Thirty7 00:06, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
