    If you go to beta, everyone has access there. You can buy the stories in the store for 0 points on beta.

    And it's worth doing. I've played 1-4, but not 5 yet.
  2. What's interesting is tonight, *I* was able to access episode 5 on beta (I am NOT VIP), but my two VIP friends were NOT. Anyone else encounter this...?
  3. Yeah, I got to the matrix room in PI about a week after The Announcement, too

  5. We will definitely miss you, Zwill. Good luck in all your future endeavors, and thank you for all you've done for us
  6. Cheering.

    Crying.

    Cheering some more.

    Re-subbing so I can get VIP back...

He expected that to be about half of the current crew until the revenue stream stabilized (i.e., everyone who was subscribed before the announcement learned that the game was back), at which point he'd bring the studio back to full size and productivity. (I believe this scenario also involves the game data - accounts and characters and such - being intact. The rumored buyer in question is himself a CoH player, as well as the owner of his own game company, and he was looking forward to I24 as much as the rest of us, so he'd definitely want the updates to continue, under the same team if possible)

    Since it's just a rumor, I won't name the business-owner in question.

    That would, of course, be among the best of the best-case scenarios. (Even if the rumor is true, that's just what he wants to do, and whether NC Soft would play ball is another matter entirely) So I don't expect that.

    But I can hope for it, or something like it, even as I prepare for the worst.
    Man. That would be absolutely amazingly awesome.

    I'll be very surprised if it happens, but it would be amazingly awesome.

    And yes, I *would* keep playing this game as it is without updates for a while. Ultimately, I'd like new stuff, but heck, I haven't finished playing everything that is here NOW

    Don't give up.

    Honestly, I'll be surprised if we hear anything definite before early November.

    Simple answer? Yes.

    My "somewhat ashamed to admit it" game addictions are Gardens of Time and Castleville on Facebook. But those are nowhere near what CoH is.

    Obvious statement is obvious

    In Sims, I'm watching for a sale again to get TS3 Supernatural. I missed out on the sale last week at Target, and I only do box copies of Sims 3. Content, I'll do download. Game, no.

    I do intend to try to recreate some aspects of Paragon in Sims 3, though. Like the Midnighter Mansion. Though I need screenies from inside... hmm...
  13. It'll be Sims 3 for me, but right now, my gaming focus is absolutely positively City

    AP33 Forever!!

    That's because we're the same ones who are able and willing to leave the computer online and in vigil while in afk mode

    AP33 Forever!!

    Sounds like one of the admins reactivated it.

    To which I say, THANK YOU! <3

    No, only a 28% chance CoH will survive.

    And a 34% chance the Mayans were right and the world will end a month later so it won't matter anyway.

  18. Oh, man I wish you'd been able to do that one, Samuraiko. That is great
  19. Yeah, I tried a 30 day game card too with no luck. It told me I'd entered a valid code, but didn't have any game accounts eligible.
