Not unless you bought The Complete Colection (in stores tomorrow) or the Items Pack (on the NCStore tomorrow).

One of the bad things about having an economy - it takes players to run it, and if players get spooked with irrational fear, it dies. And then we can't blame the developers for it. We can only blame the players.

For me it wasn't fear of losing money, in this game you can fart and 100 million inf comes out. For me I just wasn't sure what it would look like after the merge. After logging in and checking it out I am perfectly happy with the way it was handled. I have all the relevant info I wanted.

No, I'm looking for the non-alpha/omega new stuff, like Resistance/Clockwork/PPD/Sport. None of them are there.

I figured they'd so it this way. Good show Paragon Studios. See everyone tonight. Picking up my CE tomorrow.

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.

They completely fooled me. I almost never check the forums on the weekends so I didn't know about the maintenance this morning.

Oh, if only I had tomorrow off from work.

total kick to the gut

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

In my infinite wisdom I took a half day off tomorrow, thinking that it wouldn't be live until noonish. I thought I was being so clever.

Weird. I know that some stuff isn't working right now, maybe they go live tomorrow? Seems silly if that's the case though.

Alpha and Omega are exclusive to the GR Complete Collection pack. The others are exclusive to GR. No GR, no Clockwork etc costume parts. To quote from the patch notes:

Oh, I have no illusions myself. Of course it goes live tomorrow. I'm just amusing myself until it comes back up and I can simply play again.


Dec out.
