Additional Character Slots Announcement
DAMN! Every time I think this game gets better, they make it even better than I thought! Little wonder I've been here as long as I have...

I don't know if this has been asked already, but if we purchase the 2 or 5 slot package, do they all end up on the same server or can we place each slot on separate servers?
Buying in bulk is good, but I personally would want to be able to spread the slots out over different servers.

<qr> Gotta post a little "doom" in here.. but just little.
I really love the ability to re-organize my characters by drag an drop. However, it seems the game has been doing that on it's own lately. Every day I log in, I wonder where my characters will be on my list.. then the next day, they're back to the original order. (well, maybe it's not THAT frequent.. but what's a little doom without a little exaggeration? )
Will this drag and drop stop that issue or will we be dragging and dropping every other day?

My characters reorganize themselves so frequently that I literally have no idea what the original order was for them. I imagine that this would include a fix for that bug, possibly even using that bug as a part of the new feature (I know I've done stuff like that several times).
This is perfection.

Actually, Pax____ and I called for it (independantly IIRC) as soon as powerset proliferation was announced, and then again when they first announced they'd actually be giving us the option to buy extra slots.
I'm not saying that we are the reason they did this, but we might be...
Each slot can be assigned to a different server Hex.
Thank you!
I will also be getting 5 or 6 slots up i12 live.... and am absolutly exstatic about this.. truly and totally wonderfully happy! I am especially excited for issue 12. Honestly truly happy.
The reson im so friggen happy? Is because I was slightly dissapointed with the past 3 releases... All we need is IoP's back and a good structured ladder system for base raids, and I'll be as happy as kitten!
They listened! They really listened! Guys, I am tearing up.
This is awesome. A few free slots...a vet reward (which I'd been campaigning for)...and an affordable one-time fee for extra. This is the best of all possible solutions.
Awesome...just awesome.
Excellent. Great balance of free versus paid. And my OCD thanks you for allowing character organization.
Great Job! Thanks Posi.
I really wanted to scan the thread for doom and gloom, but then I changed my mind. I'm getting FREE stuff, man! Who cares about anything else?

Totally Awesome! Great job on the implementation, I couldn't have asked for better (4 slots up front, yes! ).
Once again you've proven why I keep coming back to this great, fun and well run and managed game
GOD bless,
Shem
(and I'm not OCD, I just like to...ah...ORGANISE my slots )

I think the real, honest. full-blown doom and gloom count is at 2.
I'm not sure if I'm more surprised at how low that number is, or at the fact that anyone is actually upset by this announcement...
Bah, who am I kidding?!? I'm more surprised it's so low.
Wow! Free slots & you rolled them into Vet rewards, perfect. The pricing has absolutely blown me away, I was expecting a $10 onetime fee per slot. I really hope you guys see a nice flow of additional revenue from this badly needed feature.
One last thought, please consider rename & transfers in Vet rewards down the road.

There will be a 'Save' feature that will store that info client side so that it doesn't depend on synching anomalies with the servers. That should stop the random reorderings.
Just want to add: Since I'm getting six free slots, it will be a while before I *need* to buy more slots, but I'll buy a 5-pack up front immediately to show my approval and send some cash the Devs' way!

Very very nice, Now looking forward to i12 a whole lot more. Great job Devs.
Levels 50s...(31 and counting)
Blasters(5), Controllers(5), Defenders(1), Scrappers(9), Tankers(3),
Peacebringers(1), Brutes(2), Masterminds(2), Stalkers(1), Widows(1) &
Corruptors(1)
Now if they'll just up the SG roster size to 500, my server crunch problem will be solved.
Great decisions on the generous number of freebies and server cap.
Now, how about a "Crazy Posi Weekend" with half-price server transfers to go with this?

NICE! This means that on Day One of this being available, I'll have 9 more spots on Virtue!
The sad thing is, I know what 8 of those 9 slots will be used for. If you guys would stop the oncoming train wreck that Electric Stalkers are going to be (dump Chain Induction and Lightning Clap for Thunderstrike and Shocking Grasp, and dump Conserve Power for a Dull Pain or Reconstruction Clone), I'll know what my 9th is as well.

Cool.
I never did buy myself a second account... and now I'm glad. I'm not into two-boxing anyway... now I won't have to.
And 6 free slots when I12 hits, rock. That'll keep me set for a while...
Currently: 50s (5), 40s (3), 30s (5)
Red and blue side, mostly Infinity, Virtue, and Freedom.

Yep. That's my story too, and I'm sticking with it. It has absolutely nothing to do with my raging alt-o-holicism. And I will definitely not have those 11 total slots filled within a week.
No... honest...

Stop looking at me like that.
An excellent job. Nice feature that will make money but you can hardly accuse them of being greedy. I don't think anyone expected it to be part of the vet system.

You can't please everyone, so lets concentrate on me.
