So technically, here in California, it's still Friday (granted it's not the work day anymore, but who has time to type things during the work day anymore?).

So it's been a crazy, wacky, weird and wild week. Issue 20 Launched on Tuesday (yay!) and some issues followed (boo!). To give everyone a quick run down:

  • Mac Black Screen issues with players using ATI Radeon GX Cards is still being investigated.
  • Issues with players character slots, both purchased and veteran rewarded, have been resolved. If there are any lingering issues with this, please be sure to file a support ticket ASAP.
  • Issues with players being removed from Incarnate Trials inadvertently has been potentially resolved. We're still monitoring the situation, so if it happens to you following today's maintenance, be sure to report it here.
  • We should have a fix very soon for players losing their Incarnate Bonus after dying during an Incarnate Trial.
  • We've been having a great time during our impromptu server downtime UStream chats, although we discovered that some artists have a thing for moonrocks evidently... o.0
  • A great way to know if and when we're starting a UStream cast is to follow us on Twitter or to "Like" the official City of Heroes Facebook page. Actually it's great to follow both of those options to keep up on everything CoH as it happens!
  • The Community Team will be keeping an eye on things over the weekend, and should we have any updates on fixes we're working on, we'll be sure to share them with you ASAP!

So everyone have a great weekend, stay safe and enjoy Issue 20!

Zwickiback, it would be really nice if you guys could find a viable alternative to Ustream. Many of your players are unable to view these due to the continual audio and video lag problems. Even trying to view the archived shows has the same issues.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I'm about an hour into Saturday here. Good to see that a lot of the issues are being heavily worked on. For things that require taking the server down, I guess you're damned if you do and double-damned if you don't. I'd rather endure short-term frustration over server downtime than long-time frustration over serious bugs.

Can you guys archive these impromptu Ustreams? I'd like to watch them even if nothing exciting happens.

Is there any news about Forum lagging and pages refusing to load Zwil?
