NDA lifted? Really?

Oh my.

total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Now it gets funny.

Be well, people of CoH.

"Wait, this is it?" (aka "You mean they didn't rewrite every arc in the game and introduce 10 new ATs?")

On the plus side it's nice to be free of the NDA.

Now I can finally reveal that beta started April 2nd. No, I wasn't there for that.

Regardless of your (generic you) feelings about GR, a colossal f-ton of work and testing has gone into this.

To all the beta testers who've been testing this for the past 4+ (!!!!!) months, THANK YOU.

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.

I actually thought you had quit the game for a while. When I found you, I had a real AHAAA! moment.

Funny haha, or funny hehe?

Closed beta was fun, but now I have that uneasy feeling about getting my pre-order from Gamestop and making it back to be in the bull rush to be first in line lol.

Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.

Closed Beta provided some inoculation to this for me; by the time the Loyalty Folks (my tier) got in, it was pretty much nonstop "I want more, so I hate GR!" and "slap in the face."

For this reason, I've decided that face-slapping will be the Official Meme for Going Rogue. (Special thanks to Thirty-Seven for his suggestion that skill at face-slapping is an important component in the hiring of new devs.) Runner-up Meme will be "Praetoria's standards of X are decades ahead of Primal Earth's," as in, "With greater emphasis on wrist strength, Praetorian standards of face-slapping are decades ahead of Primal Earth's."

Actually, the closed beta started on May 6. That's the date the devs gave during the SDCC2010 panel. At that time, the only thing to test was side switching, Kinetic Melee, and Electric Control. No Praetoria. No Incarnates. And you wouldn't believe the bugs we had to deal with when they tried to open up Praetoria.
