Y'know, I'm kind of surprised they haven't tried to close off the character creator for previous closed betas, especially with powerset proliferation or new powersets. And especially now that we have access to Real Numbers during character creation. It might cause problems when we start complaining about powresets before they're ready to be seen by everyone. I think some of that happened with the Shields set.
This is probably one of those things where it's better not to see it getting made, like sausage or legislation or babies.
But I am a little sad I won't get to play with the power customization.
I interpreted BaBs' message as "right now only closed beta testers can log in to the character creator, and we're taking it down to fix that."
"One day we all may see each other elsewhere. In Tyria, in Azeroth. We may pass each other and never know it. And that's sad. But if nothing else, we'll still have Rhode Island."

i'm not sad, i'm pissed off.
Any random schmuck putzing around at comic-con could waltz up and test out power customization but those of us who were unable to go yet have been loyal players aren't allowed to even check out the character creator? That's just poor play right there. This is the first time i've been genuinely disappointed in the dev team. What would it hurt to let us just look at the custom colored powers if we don't get into the game? Hell if anything it would probably help speed the process along since the character creator is the big overhaul this time around. More testers would get things found faster, plus only the closed testers would be able to see them in practice and test the in-game performance. Not cool team, not cool at all. Edit - after seeing the other reply and opinions that said tweet could just be a poorly phrased way of saying "people are locked out of character creator and we're tryign to fix it" i'd like to say that if that's the case then i retract my former statement and commend the team for being so very giving to us. if not you suck. >:| |
EDIT: And what Gr33n said about that other beta ...

I'm hoping my interpretation was incorrect.
As for that "other beta", one eye-bleeding experience with it was enough for me.
Well who ever it was that made the post about the Tankers Elec Armor power... he is either a closed beta tester.... or BABs is saying us non-beta's cant see the creator....
No one goes there anymore, it's too crowded...

And I don't believe I have access to the beta, that was the first thing I checked
Well, I could be wrong, but there's nothing in the character creator/powerset proliferation/animations that we haven't already seen. There's nothing to really test in the character creator.

I don't know, it's just a theory for why they might be doing this. But I still hope they won't be.
Pets zone now?
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan.
