I'm not sure it would make very much sense to launch the issue headstart, then announce it after.

All indications point to September 1st as the original target launch date. Then some problems came up so it isn't anymore.

The will *not* pull a surprise head start. That generates more bad feelings then makes good ones.
So, no maintenance or patch, even if for extended time will be FREEDOM or the VIP head start without an advanced announcement.
No surprise FREEDOM for you!
Speeding Through New DA Repeatables || Spreadsheet o' Enhancements || Zombie Skins: better skins for these forums || Guide to Guides
This maintenance is to facilitate hardware upgrades for all the Live City of Heroes servers.
Seems pretty cut-and-dry to me.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...
We've been having a lot of these extended maintenance windows lately, and Zwillinger warned us to expect a few more. Something to do with hardware upgrades in preparation for Freedom. We should also probably not expect any real patch notes other than "Stability changes" or "Performance changes," as that's what they've been doing for a while noww.
I kind of want to hope this is Freedom since, you know, I want it, but the Zombie has a point - with a head start planned and a promotion this big, a surprise launch just isn't an option. If they haven't made an announced, that ain't it.
Oh, well. I've been meaning to start a human revolution. Might as well do it now that I can't play City of Heroes.

They've learned not to do a release on a Thursday before a holiday weekend. The last one was bad, so very bad. I'd guess two more weeks at the very least.
Unless more bug fixes have happened then what's been listed in the patch notes, I really have little desire to play the live version of what's on beta.

A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!
