I think I'm going to have to just block tinypic.com - nothing against whatever kaktos did, but it never loads here and just keeps the browser "busy" for some reason. Regardless of browser.

You'll be able to test Street Justice, for a very limited time, once we allocate points. Time Manipulation and Beam Rifle should be available as well. I can't confirm that 100% as Clockwork O1 has gone home for the evening.

"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

Have things like people wanting to be able to preview attack animations and the like been taken into consideration with the for-purchase powersets? Will they be selectable and then buyable like costume pieces, or will they be grayed-out and unable to even be looked at like the GR sets?|

Guessing the latter, but I can speak for myself, at least, and say I'm a little hesitant to put real money into a set when I don't know what it looks like.

Ok. So it doesn't really fit. But if I'd posted any of the other horse related stuff that came to mind I'd have likely been hit pretty hard with a ban stick.

Well, you'll find out soon enough, but at the moment the beta locks out powersets you are not entitled to use. You can purchase them right from within the character creator screen, but you cannot preview the powers or animations until the powerset is unlocked.|

I'm pretty sure that within a minute or two of beta going open and the NDA being lifted there will be a dozen videos available showing all the new powersets. An in-game preview would be nice, but I'm sure that this will always be true for all new powersets past Issue 21: there will be lots of material out there showing what the sets basically looks like soon after release.

Is there a store ingame or a slash command? Howz it all work?
