Now you have extra slots to make more crappy villians.
Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.
lolz PvP anymore, Market PvP for fun and profit
I think this is the best announcement that you have ever made Posi.

Thanks Posi!

yeah - you assign on a one-slot-at-a-time (it looks like) basis.
And they can't give too many freebies, or some people will never use it :P

Ok. And my issue isn't it's just 2. It's that they're 2 picked per server. I think the 2 associated with I12 improvements should be across all servers due to increased powers...but it's a minor issue I have. I still plan on buying 5 for $20.
Wooo! Hooo!!!!

Hmmm....
36 slots on 11 servers is 396 total alts.
Primary powers * secondary powers for all the character types (not including the new powersets!) is 400 possibilities ...
Not QUITE enough slots....

LOL.
And I thought I had a bad alt-o-holic syndrome.

I have to say I think the dev team has done a great job on this issue. Freebies so nobody feels left out, vet rewards to boost those of us who have had lots of time to fill our slots, and purchasable slots for the deep down altoholics. I'm impressed.

It will be over 537 when i12 goes live.
Sometimes, I impress my boss. Sometimes, I impress myself. The rest of the time, I scare people. I can live with that.
Bravo. I'm sure if I read through the whole thread I may find some folks who are unhappy, but I'm definitely not one of them.
Very nicely done.
Edited to add: Wow. I read the whole thread. I don't think I've ever seen this much glee in one place that didn't involve cookies and duck-duck-goose.

AHhem... *sniff* God, I love you devs..... /e tears of joy
VIVA LA CITY OF HEROES/VILLAINS DEVS!!!!
TBH This is the absolute BEST part of Issue 12.
If the VEATs fail in my fun book.. I can roll a bunch of other alts on my favorite server.. and not get grumpy that I have to delete someone..
The second best part is the Roman costumes
and third is Villain Epics >.< I refuse to get all happy abut something.. and then feel let down in the end.. (so if i start out 
and they turn out to be awesome, I can just be pleasently surprised )
Wow even PP is happy about this.
Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.

"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
All I can say is WOW.......no complaints here. I'll end up with 5 slots and my husband with 6 with the launch of Issue 12. Guess no more having to move characters. Very very cool. And the pricing for additional slots is very affordable and reasonably priced IMHO.
Now can I talk to you about increasing the number of coalition slots

Um, 24 slots X 11 servers is 158 slots you would have to purchase.... for a low, low price of $1,040.
O.o'
Still here, even after all this time!
Thanks a lot, that's a major improvement I was expected long time ago
