    No, that FTP has the live client. It's named the same, but it works on live. It's how I downloaded it. They updated the client on the 6th of January to support the live servers.

    The beta client is now the test server client.

    My bad. I retract all comments. That is the correct one. It is just named the same. When tried loading it the first time, it asked if I wanted to replace the old CoH. I assumed since it was the same name and it wanted to replace, I thought it was the same. I wanted to keep the test server, so I renamed the test server "City of Heroes Test", then loaded the new one. Now I still have both.

    And my confusion with the new costume set and the porter was just an assumption that it was free to mac customers. I now know that the client is free but the upgrade still costs the same for everybody.

    Thanks for straightening me out.

    Ok, here's my question in regards to a friend who had a PC account in the past, and bought the PC version already.

    Unlike the other world of computers, the game doesn't care if you use Mac or PC.

    If you have a valid PlayNC account that is tied to "City of", grab the Mac Client and play along on your Intel Mac (running at least Mac OS 10.4, preferably Mac 10.5)

    PC or Mac, the clients hit the same servers.

    ftp://client.coh.com/US

    Does that help?

    That FTP file is the file for the beta and test server. Not the actual live client. Thanks for trying, but for Mac, there are separate applications for the live and test servers.

    I have a current Account and play on the live and test servers and have for a while. Again. I'm current. My question is: Do I have to pay again? Can't I just download the mac client for free? and if so, how?! Nothing is telling me how. I saw in this forum weeks ago that it's free to download if you are already paying for access.

    Please help! I don't want to spend 20 bucks if I don't have to, but I want to download it right now. I have been playing the test server since it started up and I hate running on windows on my mac. As soon as I download the Mac client, I'm deleting my windows partition.
