Over the weekend of February 8th through the 10th the City of Heroes and City of Villains servers saw some record numbers of recent concurrent players as super heroes and super villains logged on to enjoy the exciting times of Double XP! Characters playing during this weekend reaped the rewards of advancing their characters at twice the normal speed! While there were some issues of overcrowding that plagued the Freedom server, overall, a lot of fun was had by all!
When we look at the message forums, we see a lot of ensuing discussion about the weekend. Mindscythe, in his thread Thank you for the weekend, talks about his 40 hour marathon play session. UnSub ponders the Top Ten Things the Double XP Weekend Achieved. Other posters deal more with the joys of extended gaming play sessions and our City of Heroes gamers prove they are no different than others. In the thread Double XP Accomplishments! _Shadow_ remarks that he accomplished Eating Cheerios at 1:22 AM and Doomlord goes on to regale his creative side by making sculptures out of the pile of Mountain Dew cans filling my desk while waiting for people to zone.
We want to thank everyone for making this Double XP weekend so memorable! We are certainly looking forward to the next one, later this year!
