I23 is in pretty good shape on the Beta server right now.

I actually hope it's not yet released till after States has been the WTF for one last time as a sendoff.

Yeah I predict I23 will be launching within 1-2 weeks.
May 29th to June 4th - The Statesman Task Force (from Statesman in Independence Port)/ The Lord Recluse Strike Force (from Lord Recluse in Grandville) |

Yeah because that premature slip up wouldn't be because they're planning to release the issue and they corrected it to not tip off people or anything.
The issue, sans Hybrid, is pretty much done. There haven't been any glaring issues with the costumes (that haven't been fixed) No problems with Nightward. They're still fixing the personal mission in the new incarnate arc. The Magisterium trial is pretty much done save some tweaking. They're decided on what to do with the STF and won't be switching Babs around in Atlas til a later issue.
That's pretty much I23. Updates on beta are growing fewer and farther between, just like I22. And there's no Power sets to hold up anything.
I think we're going to see a patch this thursday or next thursday on beta then the following Tuesday the issue will launch.
After that they'll probably throw the three announced power sets onto the beta and switch it over to I24 in a month or two.
And hey if I'm right, new shinies! if not, oh well, more waiting!

Hm, thought that had been fixed last patch. Still, I expect there's going to be at least 1 more beta patch before the release.

The chainmail texture is still gigantic for me.
And I looked through the recent patch notes and didn't see any mention of fixes to the chainmail texture.

Okay, checked out the player chainmail and it still has the same issue:

If they plan to push Issue 23 out the door by say May 15th this current chainmail problem will NOT hold it up. They'll simply fix it as soon as possible -after- I23 goes live.

I agree that it's not something that should hold the issue back, I was just commenting that it's still a costume issue that hasn't been fixed.
It does make me wonder though... would the same be true if a costume looked good for people like me but didn't look good with Ultra Mode graphics?

was the chainmail set coming out with i23 or was it just gonna be a market item? if its only a market item then they wouldnt have any reason to hold i23 back aside from the hybrid incarnate slot (which i still HATE the click buff setup of it)

The Chianmail & Leather Armor are "VIP Free" sets for I23, So I'd imagine they might want to make sure they are 100% good-to-go for I23.
Thank you for the time...

All I'm saying is that a few graphics problems with a few new costume items are not, by themselves, going to be critical enough to delay an entire Issue for. The Chainmail & Leather Armor set is hardly the defining feature of this new Issue. We've already seen in the past several instances where "broken" costume items have been pushed out the door only to be quickly fixed by subsequent patches.
Sure it would be unfortunate if I23 launches with broken costume items. But it would hardly be the end of the world if it does.

Well that's also assuming that if the costumes are still broken they do let them go live instead of letting everything else that -is- working go live while letting the costumes get released in a future patch (probably 1-3 weeks down the line).
I hate to be the naysayer, since I'm as eager for i23 as anyone, but I doubt that Hybrid is going to be ready for release in the next couple weeks. Arbiter Hawk's latest discussed changes haven't even made it onto beta yet, much less tested sufficiently. And testing Hybrid at all is tricky, since you can only unlock it via Magisterium, and after the first few days of the beta it's become difficult to gather enough players on the beta server to run the trial.

Costume parts - Ultra mode isn't exactly the running standard. And since it has been such a long time since proper armour has been put into the game; best to get it patched-up asap.
For now; there's the 8th anniversary celebrations going on and we have no idea what's left on the plans for world domination by Nemesis.
Also: I want the i23 launch delayed because a friend who has wanted the Celestial stuff for almost a year is just one token away from the full set. Launching at the end of May would be after token day for her and I really want her to get it.

I'd just give her the 15 bucks to drop for the points and the token with it, why leave it up to chance if she wants it that bad? >>
Seems there has been some changes w/the WST listings. This one is of interest:
Thank you for the time...
