    Actually, Aug 31st being a Monday makes it unlikely to be a release day.

    They use an enhanced version of the MA *now*. Just before we got it it wasn't quite as easy for them.

    P_P, what did you do to that last 1/2 a person?

    To me, it catches the feelings of the original (at least, the I think it is) opening.

    Well, I know back in the old forums it was a bit of a trick to type the artist/dev N8 VanDyke you had to work the system.

    Here, just don't put a space after "Van", though, it doesn't work to use the tag trick.

    Is that cannon canon?

    Oh, and Avatea - why no info on the guy's AT/Powersets?

    You know they are going to start up an avatar contest soon if they have not already.

    Too late, Kangaroo there isn't the only one to play CoH/V through VNC on their iPhone.

    Although, if they are getting mids to work on Macs, maybe they can port it to an iApp.

  9. Not that I expect you to encounter any difficulties but :

    If you end up paying with a credit card, make sure to make a note someone of the last four digits of the first card NCSoft charges (so if you use a card to activate your account, then change it before it's actually billed, you want the second card).

    If you pay first with time or game card (different, but both can add paid time) keep that card or write it's whole number down.

    If you someone loose your account info, they will ask for those numbers from your first billing to confirm your identity.

    I might end up waiting for a free trial - it annoyed me that sent out the "Join the last CB event" email as the event started.

    Thanks for letting me pre-download.
  12. When I was in closed beta for issue testing, the servers were generally up unless down for hardware or software changes.

    Right now, they are keeping the EU TR available for i15 patches they might need to test.

Or maybe they didn't actually enjoy it so much as endure it with gritted teeth, and now they're considering themselves leet and moaning about how soft players are these days. Could go either way.
    Admittedly I "missed out" but originally to get to some zones (without a port) you had to do long boat rides (as in several minutes) or when going from the planet to the moon or the other way around in EQ, you had to a) talk to an npc to get a token (so you had to have inventory space) and b) wait for the every-fifteen-minute-event that ported everyone with the token to the moon or the planet.

    Thankfully, by the time I joined, there was the Plane of Knowledge, linking the whole world one book-on-a-pedestal at a time.

    Works like vet rewards.

    Actually, with the advent of modern technology and billing practices, you can maintain an active account well into your decomposition period.

    My guess? Yes and yes.

    If you have not been kicked out for a beta or banned from here or in game ever for behavior (accidental-invite-then-kick doesn't count) then you are in good standing.

    Dev Digest?

    In the CoH/CoV general thread is a forumite-made Dev digest based off the board's search - they are working on adapting the script from the old boards to this one.

    What "impossible" things?

    Don't confuse "impossible" with "hugely time consuming and would suck up way to much of our manhours for a long time to do".
