Beta can't handle everyone.
Emp merits cost 1 inf so you can T4 out completely as well.
Be well, people of CoH.

I'd wager it would hold the remaining population pretty well and would love to see the remaining population crash it if it can't handle everyone. Seeing a server back that active again for the last few weeks would be awesome.|

Forgot about that Billz, AWESOME. I can finally get someone besides my main all the sweet Incarnate stuff.
I didn't know about it until last night. Figured I wasn't alone. Still have to get Hybrid XP the hard way, though.
Be well, people of CoH.

How do you install the beta client again? I haven't had to do that since I was on the CoV beta.
I had wiped everything so this is what I did when I heard about the shutdown:
Install NC launcher.
Had it install CoH to my games\coh directory.
Made a copy of that coh directory to games\cohbeta.
Pulled back up the NC launcher and had it install the beta client to cohbeta.
Done.
Be well, people of CoH.
I'd play on Beta exclusively if it wasn't for the atrocious I24 bugs, the most annoying of them being powers dequeueing so often. With my ping, playing without queueing powers isn't an option, and pressing each key 4-5 times to be 100% sure the power is going off isn't much fun either, especially on quick attack chains with ~1.5s or below animations.
It's such a shame. The good parts of I24 are so good.

It may not be much help, but I'm trying to scrape all the code for the Celestial costume set, so you could in theory demorecord your PB as-is, and then edit the costume to bring it to your vision. It won't let you play in the costume creator, but it may be something.|

Of course, I haven't yet checked to see if the game client checks for valid access before loading the costume in a demo playback, so it could be a false hope.

The client doesn't check anything before playing demos. Which parts are you missing? I can easily pull the missing info you need from the costume definitions.
I'll be staying live. I feel that, if we do end up ending, the best way to go out is to continue as I always have done. Also I feel that if large number of folks move exclusively to beta, it will make the live servers seem barren, an effect that is already happening.
I'm not saying don't occasionally play on beta, nor not to check out what i24 offers. Personally, though, I'd appreciate it if you helped keep the "real worlds" going.

I have found Beta and i24 to be almost bug free.
Oh..just reread your post. I admit I was getting the power dequeuueueueueing thing too..but mostly I was putting it down to lag or less server bandwidth.
But yes..totally worth going to Beta. I am doing a thread about ym time there..it is VERY random and full of my own thoughts, but if it encourages some people to try out this content..
According to Zwillinger, they couldn't put I:24 onto live because of significant bugs.

The dequeuing of powers is quite a PITA but I'm pretty sure this is the only way I'm going to experience a fully T4ed BZB before doomsday.
Be well, people of CoH.

Not trying to call him wrong..but seriously..the ONLY bugs I have seen are the deque bug (which honestly is not that huge, mildly annoying at most) and a weird one with the Fortune Teller mission not working. Oh..and InnerWIll acting odd. And perhaps Unrelenting.|

But aside from that..
Can you still download the beta client right from the NCSoft launcher? Does it work?

Yes and yes.

Not a bad idea at all. Crowding might be an issue at times, but I don't know if it would be any worse than when an Issue went to Beta.
In fact I was just in there today tricking out C.C. with purples, procs, globals, all the goodies I can get my hands on. He's actually got some defense and resistances now (which makes me wonder how the hell I soloed him to 50 in the live game at all). Next stop, Empyrian Fred or whatever His name is, to rip Him off for all the Incarnate junk and PvP Sets I can carry!

Oh, and the only really nasty bug I've come across is the Void Skiff de-toggling EVERYTHING... powers, buffs, boosts, accolades, all of it. Slight PITA for my Dual Pistols/Martial Combat/Sorcery Space Pirate, but I'll live.

Myself and a few friends are already playing exclusively there. Beta is perfect for the last few weeks of CoH, the store is mostly free so you can load up on all the awesome extras and you can play i24 to experience new content.
No use spending the last few weeks spread across multiple servers. Consolidating the remaining players on one server could make the game feel alive again too and transfers there are free.
If we get a good population going on beta we can start up some End of Days global channels for discussion/teaming. Don't forget to try out the new Blaster changes and Bio Armor. Also, all the Power Amplifiers and XP Boosters are free, so load up. Buy (for 0 points) all those enhancement tray and costume slot additions and go to town.
