Well we bought it but i'm kinda disappointed that its only good once every 2 hours. Wish it was like the pocket d pass and had a recharge of 30 min or less. But hey its good for those mishs that are way outta the way.

BUG: The Valkyrie Face Mask shows up under the regular afce option, but not the half helmet option on huge body types.
Maybe it's that I'm cheap, but hey you guys, if you buy the 19.99 verson now, you also get 30 days. Well, you pay 15/mo anyways, so you're getting what you pay for + the goodies for only an additional $5 bucks.
Why wait til it's $9.99? 15+10=25.
You're welcome.

I'm waiting and hoping to see what the costumes look like. What I've seen so far doesn't look very valkyrie-like.

[u]Purchase of the MAC Version is necessary if you want to run on a MAC OS[u] but the download is obsolete if you already have the client installed.
[/ QUOTE ]
Really?!
All the talk during beta was that that if you have a game account, you have access to the PC and the Mac clients *without* buying the new Mac Edition.
Is that now different?
If I don't buy the Mac Edition and get a Mac Computer for MLKjr Day (it could happen), will I be able to download the Mac Client onto the Mac and play, or will I have to first buy the Mac Edition in order to enable the client to play on the Mac?

I'll confirm tomorrow but I believe there is an Authentication process involved on the updater.

Cool pack and all, but 2 hours recharge on the mission teleporter? Seriously, at least 2 times too long a recharge period.

CaptA if it was as short as the time of the ouroboros portal you'd never see anyone out on the streets anymore.
So if I want to use the refer a friend feature with a friend that has a mac instead of a pc. Where do they go to download the mac edition client while they are still on the 10 day trial? Is that an option in the plaync control panel now or is it just the original pc edition client download still?

Thanks for the quote. I was sure that's the way it was and probably the way it is. It's good to make sure the community rep is on the same page.

Heh... well, 1 hour would be a bit overpowered. I mean, people would be able to do Dr. Q in like 3 hours instead of 6-9, and, well... yeah it wouldn't be worth 90 merits anymore.

Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

It's the same ftp site as the windows client.

Sexy, I just downloaded the Mac Client and after the HUGE download I got to play my good old heroes on my MacBook. No need to buy anything.
Not sure how capable it can handle the game, but I can at least solo with it when I'm far from my gaming PC.
One hour overpowered ? We dont have the same definition of 'overpowered'
30 mins would have been fair to me. 1 hour long but acceptable. 2 hours (in case it's not affected by the global recharge) isnt appealing anymore.
I love the new shinies in this pack but I am disappointed at the 2 hour recharge on the mission teleporter. I understand and accept it should be a long recharge but an hour seems more reasonable. Also, why is the icon the same as the Fly power icon? That just doesn't make sense at all.
I for one, am happy the mission teleporter has such a long recharge. I wish it were longer. Actually, I wish it didn't exist at all.
I'm being completely serious. To me this power crosses a line I don't think should be crossed. It's anathema to the spirit of the game from my point of view. That said, it's here, and it has a suitably long recharge. I will probably use it myself, but I just find it... it just doesn't feel right to me. It feels cheap, like cheating.
I'm only ladylike when compared to my sister.

If true, this is a HUGE step back from what we were told. And rather disappointing.
I don't think you'll be lacking for people who will buy the pack, it's clearly a better bargain than buying just the add-ons, and they're cool add-ons. But does this mean that if someone buys the Mac client, they can't use the PC client?
I hope this is not true. I suspect, if it is, it's how transgaming will get paid for their work (which they've done a good job for), but highly disappointing.

I just bought it for my PC, my PC works fine. Got the items, etc. No issue with the current client accepting the upgrade code.
I don't know if a NEW client on a PC would be correct. But if you've got a new customer on a PC they should just buy the gve and upgrade later.

A lot (I'm tempted to say most, but at least a lot) of Mac users have a PC and a Mac. If you have multiple PCs, you can buy one copy of the game and install on as many as desired. But if you have a Mac and a PC, do you need to buy two copies?
If that's how it's got to be, I can understand...but it's not what we were told, and it's a definite step back.
