is Cybertech being released or what?

Okay with Nov 30 looming closer I realize there are much more important issues. That said over the weekend, to my suprise, suddenly the Cybertech costume pieces suddenly appeared as options in the costume creator. Now if you attempted to BUY them you got an error message but on several occasions we've seen that before when the Devs preloaded an item they intended to offer up after Tuesday maintenance. It actually suprised me that the items appeared at all since i assumed we were simply done getting anything NEW but I liked the cybertech stuff when i used it on Beta and so i was hopeful that while we will probably never see Issue 24 at least they MAY offer us a few small gifts before the servers go dark.

Wel its tuesday and I still cant go to the store and BUY the items listed so is this a glitch or someone's idea of a cruel joke?


There were several new costume designs on Beta that were interesting including Coursairs.. Space Pirates So are we goin to see any of them or are we being teased?

NO. NOTHING NEW WILL BE ADDED TO THE STORE. PERIOD.



Anything that shows up in game is the result of an automated system, but with nobody in the studio to tie it to the store, it can't actually be accessed. Later this month, SSA 2.5 will come out, but only VIPs will be able to access it--like SSA 2.4, it won't show up in the store.

And the Space Pirate stuff is tied to the new Super Packs, which again, were never released on the live market.

It's a crying shame that this wasn't a dug thread, especially since he seems to be posting again.

And I'm positive that even then that anything beyond SSA 2.3 (released in August) will only be available on the Beta client.

SSA 2.4 is already available on Live. Played it there with all my characters. (But, again, it's VIP-only, with no way to unlock it if you're not VIP)

SSA 2.4 is available live now and 5 should be available (for VIPs) before the end, according to (was it Alpha Wolf?) Dev comments a few weeks ago.

Yup. I checked myself just the other day, and 2.4 is on live for VIPs only.

It is not, as I mentioned, available in the store. There hasn't been a change made to the store since before August 30.

If there is any actual hostility it's directed at the fact that the automated system is listing items that can't be unlocked.

Yes, SSA 2.5 should be available to VIP players in late October.

Bodysuit costume pieces are now appearing in the character creator.

Thanks, Alpha!
Huh, I didn't expect the body suits... that's a nice surprise.
I didn't realize how much you guys had things on timers like that!

They were planned to be free to VIPs, I believe, so... I'm imagining that they should likely be available to use for VIPs, if they're showing up.

I guess I24 likely would have been around at this point, eh?

No, they're not free. I just double-checked.

I'm thinking the "free-for-VIP" coding would have been included with i24's patch. Bummer, it would have been nice to get some use out of those sweet looks, if only for a limited time.

Yeah, I suspect it's something along those lines as well.

Well, we'll just have to succeed in getting all of this in the near (or distant) future.
Too much awesomeness to be contained.

We're being trolled by the costume creator.
