I set it up last night and really had zero problems/trouble with. In fact it made things better with faster DLing and fewer shortcuts. *shrugs*

[EDIT] In fact it states it in the very first sentence of the announcement thread:

As some of you may know, a new NCsoft launcher will soon be available and will actually become compulsory after a while in order to play City of Heroes.

The launcher isn't a big deal for me
I will say I LOVE the aura. It's a nice complement to the Atomic aura, especially since it's not orbiting the center so much as floating near it and the movement is more delayed, putting the auras on fists also makes them disperse and regroup after animations, which is awesome.

The full-body aura is pretty fantastic too.

Is the incentive whisp aura a global unlock, or just per character logged into the game with the new launcher?

My understanding is that it's Global, but any existing characters you log in will get the message that it's unlocked, making it seem like it's per-character.

I found this out after spending about 2.5 hours logging in every character I have across all servers on 2 accounts.

Will want to use a slightly different game name in the above to launch that version.

The aura is not available on the live server right now, though. Wait for a patch.
Hope this info helps.
