Well, since I don't get to partake any I16 goodness I guess I'll go back to beta testing this Dance MMO.

I expect that I16 is going to be in beta for longer than normal, considering what's being added in this update.

However, at Comic-Con, only about half of the customization was done for powers, so they will either be pushing more art updates as the beta goes on, or the art department is about to fall over and die from overwork. ;9

Ah well, at this stage I seriously doubt any amount of moaning would help...but seriously, if people at the Comic-con could waltz upto machines, film the animations (and make us so happy that Punch and Haymaker are getting different animations *hugs Zek*) I really don't see the point in only having closed beta tests be able to fiddle about with the power customisation... |

No invite for me yet, but something tells me this might just be the "Friends and Family" part of I-16's closed beta. If I get in, great. If not, I'll see it when it hits open beta.
In the meantime, those who get in and actually beta and find bugs and stuff, I appreciate your efforts in making I-16 go as smoothly as possible.

Just so ya'll know BABS and Castle made it very clear that if you do not have access to the beta you will not be able to use the character creator. at all

Not animations or effects. Powersets.
1) Powersets change drastically in Closed Beta... and IIRC, during the FIRST powerset proliferation instance, people were reading the stats, reposting them for others as if they were set in stone, then rioting when it all changed before they got in the beta.
2) Powerset descriptions probably haven't been fully fleshed out. There's probably a lot of placeholder text & draft junk. I16 is a shot across the bow of another soon-to-be-competitor and SOME people are going to make comparisons. It is best not let those comparisons be made when you're still working on the material.
The lack of outrage is dissapointing.

No download here... so you should be doing the beta then. But, I was saying it before and everyone disagreed with me... this update will release about the same time as the CO game since it has the same features being put into i16.

Ah well.
So, if I16 goes live in September, that'd be a nice way to 'celebrate' the launch of That Other Super Hero Game...
