Was waiting for a smart [censored] remark about it. I don't see how you could have made anything dirty out of what I said. Next time, I wont say a thing and you can find out for yourselves when the servers are up.
I was going to withhold judgement until playing it, but I just now got on and I cannot access the game (can get to character selection, but it boots me after that).

Account XXXXX is not allowed on this server. reason:
Access to this server is currently restricted for internal
testing by NCsoft employees to verify todays new
publish. Your access will be restored to this server once
our checks and tests are complete. Thank you for your
patience.
[/ QUOTE ]
So my question is: What is Test Server for now?
I purposely did not go to test, as I do not agree to freely test new content (though I understand some people love to do that); however, it does not seem reasonable to have a TEST server, then have to test things once they are on a live server.
Hasn't history in this game proven over and over and over: you will get your testing done by all of us (free) when you rush to live; I expected a couple more patches and downtime this week as you correct many of the issues that will creep up.
Now, the "team" has locked out the public, and it likely will still need some patching later this week once the general populace has at it.
Whatever, I've already pre-ordered the next MMO... just living out my last months of pre-paid for this game.
Good luck to all the cheerleaders who are left here, I'm sure it'll be oodles of fun and excitement for years to come for you all.

If the servers would turn on, we wouldn't be having this conversation anyway.

Well at least this is something we can agree on.

Awww, no offence meant 
I am just incapable of resistng a badly crafted innuendo.
Thanks for letting people know though
Always remember, we were Heroes.
could you use the animation that the mastermind soliders use when they get upgraded where a big gunny sack gets tossed on the ground?
210 50s and still counting!

I might be able to put something together. I only did the two for Kheldians because someone suggested it, and there was already animation/VFX there for shape-changing. VEATs don't have any sort of shape-changing powers to pull directly from.
[/ QUOTE ]
Hmm... Arachnos Sigil perhaps?

What about using the poof from the midnighter disguise, but with the arachnos symbol rather than the crecent moon?

Right!
Because 1 Test server is the same thing as 11 Live servers!
Hang on...no, that was sarcasm.
I'm as frustrated that my server isn't up yet as the next person in the same situation, but what you said was a bit silly.
Try it again...with more cow bell.
It's up, i'm in
Off the subject, I found a pretty funny bug already. I just was fooling around making a new character while waiting for the servers to "truely come live" and of course after creating it it bumped me back out to the login screen, but the bug is that when I logged back in to the character screen I saw my created character and it says that it has been logged off for 3467 days. Ummmmm this game is not 9 almost 10 years old. That would make my toon logged off for 9 years and 9 months. WOW! I have the oldest toon on this game! It was created 4 years before the game came out. BEAT THAT!!!! LOL
I just got into Freedom. Respecs were granted today.
According to the server status page, servers apear to be going up.
Arc #40529 : The Furies of the Earth
I am in.
Go Team Venture!
Protector is up and open

[/ QUOTE ]Yaknow, a month or two ago, I was talking with my friend who plays that one MMO that has 12 million or so people. He mentioned that after the major patch they had, they essentially had screwed up a major portion of the game...and thus had downtime of about 17 hours straight. Then, even more downtime the next day, when they had failed to completely fix the issue.
In short: Don't expect your new shiny MMO to never have downtime. Problems happen. Get over yourself, and find something else to do while waiting.
Personally, I like how the official website says Issue 15 came out on the 26th.

Not very fitting IMHO. I think Sadako's idea is more logical for the VEATs.
WAIT... why are the dominator changes of 6/16 NOT here? The listed changes are the original changes, not the updated ones.
Wonderful! Thanks for another free issue. Now to go whack the Reichsman a few times..

Issue 15 Anniversary Release Notes
Fixed a Memory Leak issue that affected a small number of Mac users.

Wishful thinking on devs' part. Not solved.

This might stink:
Players are no longer able to reinvite others to a Task Force after the Task Force has started.
Assuming each MA mission is a Task Force.
[/ QUOTE ]
That MIGHT be referring to the bug where people can invite others to a TF after the TF gets screwed up by someone still on an AE arc. It had the chance of being a huge exploit.
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm hoping this will not effect AE mission mechanics. Plenty of times I have to invite a new player or two because the leader had to log out [East Coast and West Coast players].
