Preparation for Issue 15 Beta

If I'm not mistaken, the 'paid services' like character renames and such are free on the test servers. I've never tried it, but I would assume that a server transfer in the test client can move a character from TR1 to TR2...

The store is absolutely free on the test servers. I have "bought" all the character slots, all 36 of them, and was not charged a single dime.
Same goes for rename and character transfers from test 1 to test 2, or vice versa.

Players should be advised that if you have any Training Room native characters, PvP Tournament characters etc. on Training Room 2, you should transfer those characters over to Training Room by Monday, May 18th....

...ummm... okay, if the transfer tool is used for moving toons from live servers to tr severs... how, then, are we supposed to move our toons from tr 02 to tr? I have several toons on tr 02 not to mention a sg with well over 500 mil pres that I DO NOT want to lose! But I would like to at least keep my (VERY WEALTHY) toons!
[/ QUOTE ]
Umm... it's the TEST server. You shouldn't expect to keep *anything* on the Test Server. While I'm also impressed that you've built up a megaton of Prestige... you might have thought about doing that on a live server. There are quite a few of 'em. 
The devs are under no obligation to save anything on the Test Servers... from Ex's post:
· Content and characters could be wiped at anytime as game specific updates and changes are published, tested and removed.
So... I'm betting you're out of luck, man.

Can't do anything about this now unless they are late with the patch, but if you still have the time, you can Transfer all TR2 characters over to TR1 by using the (Free) Transfer service you would use in game to transfer toons live. I just saw this message so I lost all my toons on TR2 but wipes happen. Lucky I have a majority of them on TR1. Okay, see you in the closed open beta sometime.

Looking forward to it.

Be well, people of CoH.

On that note, you haven't said anything sig-worthy in like 24 hours. Can you get on that? Kthx.

My guess is he duped a bunch of inf then bought the prestige. Why he'd waste the time to do that, IDK!
Didn't they have some prestige grants for testing purposes? Maybe its from that.

No I didn't dump inf for pres...
I meant 500k... I was thinking of something else at the time....
I don't expect to keep ANYTHING... but it would be nice not to loose what you worked hard to get regardless, would it not?...
the situation has been fixed already....
I still have the rich toons AND SG...
So I guess that I'm not out of luck... man.
Joking! 
But it has been fixed and I do still have everything... gonna build the base back up now. it's a solo SG, so you can understand why I had that concern... I built that wealth by myself. If anyone would like to join to test new stuff with me, you are welcome too... with no expectations of sg mode if you don't want to.

I didn't get that much in the bump anyway... it's just my toons in the SG... and I didn't have that many on test. I worked for almost all of it.

Heh.
When I14 Closed beta began. Only a small amount of people were allowed access. IMO, and what I believe the developers may have realized concerning some things, there were not enough people to emulate a realistic server load. You can't really stress test system integrity and get accurate results if you don't emulate realistic server stress.
Usually when an Issue goes from closed to open, it means the team is nearly ready to go live with it. There wasn't enough time for them to polish out the bugs they discovered when I14 went from Closed to Open, remember?
By making I15 an open gig, they are testing to see if the results turn out better with a realistic stress test on the server right away, so that way they are not so pressed for time to get everything right while making the non-verbal promise of things going live (when they go from closed beta to open beta, it usually is a promise that it is about ready to release).
I'm willing to bet they really don't want all the horrible issues with bases to seep over into the Live servers this time around. Open only beta can help them to find and squash all the bugs that a Closed beta testing wouldn't find right away.
SO GO TO TEST AND HELP OUR NEW ISSUE BE BUG-FREE!
Of course it wasn't a realistic test of the server load - it wasn't a test of the server load at all when they started the closed beta of i14 - closed betas are for focusing testing on what the devs want.
Open beta is when they are stress testing an issue.

I thought for sure it'd be ready today, since the devs seem to like Tuesdays. It's possible it'll pop up this week still, but I'd bet on next Tuesday.
