Another leaker named Destiny Virtue also talked about SCORE at length on Facebook, corroborating those details while also claiming that other emulator projects like Paragon Chat were just a 'smokescreen' to distract players away from the real project.

Everyone who joined had to be vetted by a group of admins who also made new players agree to a non-disclosure agreement in order to keep SCORE a secret.īut, as Destroyer Stroyer explains, he was uneasy with the way the project was being hidden from the larger City of Heroes community and decided to leak the server's existence while accusing notable members of the City of Heroes community, including moderators of the subreddit, for being complicit in keeping SCORE secret. Destroyer Stroyer says that this server only has around 3,000 total players with many of them being friends and family of the SCORE development team, who in turn could invite others. What he discovered was a project called SCORE (Secret Cabal Of Reverse Engineers), a fully-functioning recreation of City of Heroes as it existed before NCSoft shut it down almost seven years ago. I never thought in all those years there would be a private server… because why would they close off something so full of nostalgia to the rest of us, just seems mean.
