City of Villains

[Dasquian Belargic]

I just got an invite to the beta. Unfortunately it looks like there are only 3-4 hours a day when you can play, in a set time slot... and I have to download a hefty 2GB worth of stuff before I can even get going. Hopefully it will be fun. Never played City of Heroes before, but I think I'd be more suited to playing a villain anyway ;)

(BTW Droo sorry about deleting your post, I freaked, thinking that there was still an NDA in place)

[Droo]

Haha! No problem. I'm curious though, would it be possible for me to sign up for the Beta testing and if so, how do you do it?

^ That's where I signed up, but that was a while ago. The text saying "CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP", or whatever, is still there - but it doesn't link to anything. I guess sign-ups must be closed? :huh Either that or I'm not reading the page right.

You can also get into the Beta by pre-ordering City of Villians. For $15 a month (when CoV is released) you'll be able to play both CoH and CoV - they're not charging double for what's basically two games.

My brother is in the Beta, but I can't afford the game. Heck, he's paying my monthly fee on CoH and bought me it for my birthday last year, so he's my MMORPG sugar...brother.

The costume design includes all the costume options from CoH + a ton more options for your villians. It's really cool, I made a villian on my brother's beta version. He might have deleted it though. :p

I thought CoH was great fun in the beginning, and the character customisation is really amazing. But it tends to get repetious after a while. I got bored of it eventually.

I'm currently in the beta.

The Servers are no longer 3-4 hours a day only, they're running 24/7.

Oh - and it's a GREAT game, I hope they release a soundtrack for the background music, it's fantastic.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Ah, thanks for correcting me, Cline-o. Got about 2 and a half hours worth of downloading left before I can get started though, sadly.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

my global name on CoH is Assistance, btw, in case anyone plays and wants to look me up :)

And I started a sw-fans.net super group on the Virtue server. Of which I'm the only member, but hey at least everyone who looks at me sees the web address :)

[Michael Cline]

I don't have any characters on Virture - but I think I'll make one.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

You should. :)

[Dasquian Belargic]

How would I go about contacting you in-game, LD?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

If you were on the virtue server it would be fairly easy. But just add @assistance to your global friends list. Then every time I'm online you would be able to see me, no matter what servers we were on. My toon names are Assistance, Goewyn, Susannah, 00100010 (something like that), Excellence, Lei Yojimo and Tigresa.

I dont know if you can contact people on CoH through CoV (which opens today, beta ended yesterday).

[Dasquian Belargic]

oh :( that's my fun over then.

[Michael Cline]

I'm picking up my copy of CoV tomorrow. *Grooves*

[Lilaena De'Ville]

boo, i can't afford it!

[Firebird1]

Well if any of you are on, let me know. My Global Name is Happybot (yes Happybot...). Usually I run around Pinnicle as Pirate Bolt (COV). So if you do see me running around Port Oaks flag me down!:)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

happybot! (giggle)

Myself and my room-mate picked this up the other day. not to bad. We're learning the ropes on the infinity server, if/when we're not at work, or playing wow, or doing other general RL stuff.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

infinity! noo Virtue is the place to be :)
