    I'm sorry I called you a liar, but you really should think before you make a claim like that!
    Thanks for the apology and in my defense 5 seconds before I tried logging in I checked the forums and saw nothing... I quickly got on here to change my post after i figured it out but it had already been seen by you and others. sorry

    Because if they don't specifically say "Open Beta", you're in CLOSED BETA.
    Hey why don't you shut your mouth? You think I haven't figured that out by now? No reason for you to be the way you are cause you can't get in jerk

    So... Yeah.
    They can have GR CB on a different server though. Doesn't have to all be on one server.

    It is my speculation that "Training Room" is still the CB from i17. "Training Room 2" is either going to be the GR CB server or is going to get i17 open beta. If that happened "Training Room" would then get the GR CB. Just a thought. That would be why one would just say closed to the public and one would be closed to all, but those that have the "special" version of the test client. Maybe we'll know for sure tomorrow

    Well until you state what it is you might as well be talking to yourself. So until you bring a valid reason to the table how this is a problem for you just deal with it!

    No, that does NOT grant access to any Closed Beta other than the Going Rogue Closed Beta.
    I know right? I'd be rich if every time that was asked I got some money lol! Get it through your heads people!

    I remember it was mentioned, I believe at HC, that the demons would be elemental. Many have speculated that this would be similar to the Ammo Swap power used in Dual Pistols. I don't believe it is going to be a clone of any MM set since none of the MM sets currently are elemental, as far as I understand what the word elemental means for DS anyway.

    Well as Zombie Man said above, the friends and family wave has not been confirmed to happen every time, although it would make sense. So we never know! I would guess if it did you wouldn't have seen the leak that quickly. Just my guess though...

    Ya CPU's and memory can have a big impact on the graphics as well a lot of people don't realize that!

    I'm sure it is very much worth the wait! Wish I lived close enough to go to PAX or even to have went to Herocon. Blasted Illinois is too far in the middle to be close to ANYTHING good! lol

    That started awhile back. The friends and family stage is long over lol. How do I know this? Cause there have been some dummy's on here breaking the NDA to confirm information to win an argument. Funny how the right argument can bring out answers lol. These kind of people I guarantee are not part of the friends and family stage since they are obviously not reliable.

    Closed beta should almost be over friend. Our friend Kheldarn above posted the information in another thread that shows the average time an issues have been in closed betas in the past...

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showp...22&postcount=3

    There is the post. From what I can see the end is coming... lol very Apocalyptic of me

    Also, note that CB is to keep people from doing what you said above. If they always had an OB for things it would take forever to get constructive comments from people, since like you said they would say it is junk, but wouldn't understand how to tell Devs that is it junk. i17 would be in beta for half a year if they did that! lol

    The quality setting that is current in the live build is that same setting, but without the low setting of Ultra mode. The settings that the client discussed was a combo of Quality and low settings of Ultra Mode combined, from what I can tell. It will NOT have the same "level of demand" as far as graphics cards.

    This is my speculation: (Regardless of all this bellow you still have to have a card that supports OpenGL 3.0 or you can't use Ultra Mode.)

    If your card is just "ok" at running normal Quality, it most likely won't run GREAT on low settings on Ultra Mode. If you try to run Ultra Mode at medium or high you might as well set your computer on fire.

    If your card runs "GREAT" with no hiccups at all in regular Quality, it will probably run Ultra mode low level no problem! Medium MAYBE, but High could be iffy...

    If you can run games like Crysis on full settings and have a graphics card that costs more than what some people on here spent on their computers, you should have no problem running Ultra Mode on it's highest settings. Not saying this is a requirement for high setting, just stating that those people will have no problem

    Sorry for the long post. I'm just getting my speculation out there!

I've been wondering for a while myself when those forums were going to be taken down.

    That said, the only ones who know if Issue 17 is ready for open beta or not are the developers, and they likely won't say anything until open beta is right upon us. Don't think the Training Room has been patched in maybe a week or so, so maybe we could be quickly approaching open beta. Conversely, based on personal experience in past CoH closed betas, going for a little while without a new patch is certainly no indicator of the overall state of the build.

    Short version: Maybe, maybe not. Either way, we likely won't know until a Red Name posts saying that we're going into open beta.
    I understand. Just a wonderment of mine! I know we have know official announcement, just being hopeful!

  19. So I found this interesting. This link is to a post that is in all of the Dual Pistols Open Beta Forums:

    You can continue to share your feedback on the Dual Pistols with us in the usual threads available in the open forums.

    Many thanks for your participation and feedback!
    This seems that maybe the OB will start on the 29th or 30th? Would anyone else assume this? It is just a guess, but it makes sense to me! The post by Avatea was posted yesterday. I would guess that they are adding the i17 OB forums in place of the dual pistol forums. Thought I would just post this and see if anyone else had noticed.

    Good day all!

    A bit off topic, but if you want an explanation here it is... I actually forgot I could multi-quote for the those first ones. Then I actually tried to merge my own, but since i can't delete my own posts and it would have looked dumb to have three blank posts, I left them. I would guess I didn't get in trouble for it because it's a thread started by me and it's not like I'm on here spamming. Most people that would do that would be spamming a thread, which is against the forum rules and which I was not doing. I merely answered questions and commented on posts that others had left before me...

    If you have anymore questions like this ask me through PM. This is not the place to ask questions like that, as it is off-topic, adds no new information, and it seems that you are asking just to troll. If you have something constructive to say please post it here, if not PM your comments to me. Thanks!

    -There is a lot if whining and complaining about the PRE-PURCHASE of GR. Here is my conclusion on this taken from another post I posted, think of A, B, & C as your purchase options:
    It is simply that: MY conclusion taken from another post I posted.

    Quote:
    but the perk is NOT an early access to powers it is:

    • Alpha-and Omega-themed auras
    • Alpha and Omega themed costumed sets
    • Four stance emotes
    • The Shadowy Presence invisibility power


    to clarify, early access to power SETS come with prepurchasing Going Rogue while the early access to powers can be confused with the...
    Dude did you read my entire section on that? All that was explaining was if you PRE-PURCHASE or buy the BOXED COLLECTION what the difference was. You can get the item pack regardless if you PRE-PURCHASE or get the COLLECTOR'S EDITION. What else needs to be clarified? Please read all of the post's explanation carefully before trying to correct the information.

    P.S. I don't see in anyway at all how the GR item pack can be mistaken for the 60 month vets badge... How can someone make that mistake? The only time 60 month vets and GR is listed together is when people refer to the loyalty program which is about the CB not the item pack that you can get with GR.

    Exactly what I was saying. Thanks Kheldarn! If the item pack you mentioned was the perk Du Hast then you could only get it one way or the other. Since it is available regardless then how is that a perk? It is nothing more than a booster pack from a certain point of view. The early access to DP & DS or a free month if you wait, are the real perks that people can choose to have.

    Please make sure you read all of my information next time before you try to correct it. I have all of the information that I wanted to state right there. I was not talking about the item pack, I only mentioned it...

    that's not what i meant. i just meant when it went in to open beta again, or when it is just the regular test server. not now since i know it is CB
