    They should leave it up to the animators to fix the bugs.

    You don't think they're trying to sell convenience? Isn't that all a in-game store ever is? Content, convenience, and services?

    What exactly counted as an "I win" button? I win at purchasing a Server Transfer? I win at buying that belt from the Magic Pack? I win at buying a Character Rename?

    What was that video that I was just watching where Zwil was singing in the shower???
    It was his final attack: Ultimate Tangent.

    I... I'm sorry you've experienced it.

    You've been had, but it wasn't too bad.

    For the record: I would do these highlights too but VK already does them and I'd rather do focus discussion, like the time they mentioned Power Proliferation and I went straight to the forums to post about it.

    You see that, Zwillinger? This is what happens when you postpone a Coffee Talk!

    You're still here? Come back tomorrow for the August 4th edition! Coffee Talk has been delayed for a day.

    This has been a parody thread. We now return you to your regularly scheduled serious business.

    Go ahead and copy! Anything I share is always up for use in part or all of it!

    And no, I only play on Pinnacle!

    The "which hero will die?" arc is, from information around, going to be about 8 months long.

    VIPs will have access to the complete stories as long as they are subscribed.

    Premium players have to unlock them. Does this mean:
    1) A premium player can unlock episodes 1, 3, 7, and 8 permanently.
    -OR-
    2) Unlock all available stories for that arc of stories (1-8, after it is "done") for only a month at at time.
    How you are phrasing that could be interpreted either way... If it is the first, will there be a bundle for each signature arc?
    I assumed Premium players would be able to purchase Monthly Story Arcs as a permanent item. I don't think they've ever mentioned the word Renting when talking about purchasing the new zone or the MSA's.

    It says the enhancement trays are account wide. Does that mean they apply to current and new characters made on the account?
    Your question is your answer. Current and new characters have account wide perks applied to them. Costume Boosters, the Wisps Aura incentive, and Costume Codes are examples of account wide perks. I see no other way for it to work, unless it is with Certifications, which is the only other account wide mechanic out there.

    As well with the additional character slots. I did buy for up to 36 slots on a server right now and have 5 veteran reward character slots I can unlock on a server. Will I just need to buy 7 additional slots to get up to 48 on the server, or do I need to go in for the full 12?
    You won't lose those unused character slots when Freedom arrives. They are not taking away things from subscribers, their (heavily) expressed intent is to give more value to them. As part of City of Heroes: Freedom you will be able to use your saved up character slots on the new page. I know I will be for my saved up character slots. I only play on one server and I'm glad I never wasted them!

    Either way, you've got me spending a few dollars at launch. Even with my VIP free points, I doubt it'll be enough for me to buy the additional premium powers and the costume slots and the enhancement trays and the character slots.
    I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of money when the Paragon Market finally arrives.

    I really don't know why that wasn't done ages ago. Sure it's nice to see the personal achievements a character has made, but for an alt friendly game this is far too granular. Especially with how difficult or time consuming some of those Badges are.

    Until then, I'm only interested in Badges for bonuses such as the +HP/+Endurance Accolades.
  • bAss_ackwards
    I like the name!
  • bAss_ackwards
    I'm liking the ability to purchase more character slots, but why only 1 more page? Why not let us buy a huge amount of character slots, like the previously suggested 72 slots? With 4 pages, my character list is still going to be dominated by Scrapper Primary/Secondary combinations I want to play. Especially with the new options opened up with the next round of Power Proliferation! I like other ATs too, but Scrapper characters get the priority on space!
