It is. Trial accounts can't level past 14.

Yes, that is why:

Trial Account

From Paragon Wiki




Trial Accounts allow a player to take City of Heroes and/or City of Villains for a test run. They are free and last either 10 or 14 days, depending on the source of the Trial Account code. Up until Issue 12, a Trial Account was not limited in what it could do; as of Issue 12, there are several restrictions put in place. Most of these restrictions were placed due to RMT spam.

Restrictions

  • Trial Accounts cannot email other players
  • Trial Accounts may not level past 14
  • Trial Accounts can only have 50k influence
  • Trial Accounts may not join global channels
  • Trial Accounts can only speak in
  • Trial Accounts cannot invite players to team
    • Trial Accounts may join teams, but not invite other players
    • Trial Accounts may not join SuperGroups.
  • Trial Accounts may not create Mission Architect arcs. They can not interface with the Architect Entertainment Stations. However, they can be invited onto a team that is running MA missions.
Sources

Trial Account codes are always available from the "Refer a Friend" option in a player's Master Account options. Each player may give out three of these at a time. They last ten days, and if the Trial Account is upgraded to a retail-code account, the person who originated the offer gets a month of free time added to the end of their subscription.
They are also available for 14 days anytime at the official free trial website.
Trial Accounts are also available from older NCsoft box sets. They come on small pieces of paper with a code on it. These last 14 days and do not give a free month to the owner of the box set if the account is upgraded to a retail-code account.
An additional source is websites offering Trial Account codes. These typically last either 14 or 10 days, though vastly more often 14. They do not give a free month to anyone if the account is upgraded to a retail-code account.

It is really disturbing to think that the trial does not explain its own limitations. Will every trial player think there is no teaming or chatting in-game?


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. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

That and the game has a wide variety of chat options and settings that are visible to a trial player, even if he can't use them. I don't think a player is going to play for long without finding out about Broadcast.

I would like to get back on topic, without the use of screen shots, to welcome you, OP, to City of Heroes.

Indeed, trial accounts can only obtain up to level 14. Although the information is commonly listed, I won't fault a new player for nto knowing these things.

In addition, please don't let the silliness of this thread sully your experience of the game; it's the exception rather than the rule (except in the case of some teeth-gnashing game change).

Please do enjoy your stay, and we hope you'll apply for permanent citizenship soon. Feel free to post other questions or PM me if you need any more assistance.

Regards,
