Well I didn't get much chance to take any screenshots tonight but here is one of the evil version of my first CoH character, Gungnir. Instead of an elec/elec blaster this Gung is ice/ice.

I received a beta invitation, but I haven't been able to use it because my account is set for cancellation (when you set to not be rebilled, they shut off your forum access). I'm hoping that I'll be able to restart my sub once I'm settled in California next year.

The beta is open until Sunday for a stress test. So instead of the regular 3 hour window we have all day/night until Sunday to play.

I'm extremely curious as to how far "villainy" extends in this sort of game.
You do bank heists, kidnap people, kill civilians, other villains and heroes...pretty villainous I would say.

BTW, Gung got up to 10 so he registered the name Legion of Super-Villains and got his base permit.

Doesn't it seem kind of counter-intuitive that villains would need a permit to build a base? You figure if a building inspector comes along wouldn't they have some villainous means of getting around stuff like zoning, building permits, and codes?

Got my first look tonight. The lag was pretty bad, but I managed to put together a Science Mastermind with a Robotics primary named Rotwang. I'll give it try tomorrow during the day to see if the lag is a bit more manageable.

Villains Prepare for Statesman’s Strike! Impending Invasion October 26th!
Friday, October 21, 2005 Attention, villains of the Rogue Isles! This is your leader, Lord Recluse. I address you, my mighty comrades, to warn you of a dastardly plot hatched by the contemptible Statesman.
Arachnos technicians have intercepted a Longbow transmission detailing a massive assault on the Rogue Isles! Statesman and his lackeys, the Freedom Phalanx, plan to coordinate their efforts with Longbow in a pathetic attempt to destroy us.
If they want war…they shall have it.
I call on all of you, my dreadful allies, to join forces. We will dispose of the wretched Statesman. We will crush his mindless minions underfoot. With our dire and ruinous powers, we will exterminate all those who wish to make us slaves to their own narrow-minded ideals.
They believe that we will be caught unsuspecting, that we will be easily beaten. This arrogance will be their undoing. We will lie in wait, ready to rain destruction on those foolish enough to oppose us. So, my ascending evildoers, be prepared to unleash your destructive rage on the evening of October 26th! We shall make the marauding Statesman rue the day he chose to confront the all-powerful villains of the Rogue Isles!

I was playing around on COV, and it gave me the option to create a hero or a bad guy. Anyone know if the hero starts out in Paragon City or what?

I haven't played with the hero part yet but I understand that it is in Paragon just not the 'live' one.
Created a new MM necro last night since they obviously aren't giving us access to our characters on the other servers after the open stress test. Got him up to level 10 before I quit this morning. Trent Reznor with his zombies PrtyHateMachine and Perfect Drug.

We are having a special beta event tonight to test Siren's Call and PvP. We hope all of you will join us! Here are the details…
Tonight from 8pm-10pm Central (6-8 Pacific, 9-11 Eastern, 7-9 Mountain), we plan to shut down the normal beta server temporarily and bring up another one. We’d like for all of you to log in and create either a Hero or a Villain... we need players on both sides!
After you create your new character, you’ll notice a couple of special guests in Mercy Island and Atlas Park. If you’re a Villain, you should talk to Ghost Widow, who will be stationed near Kalinda. If you’re a Hero, you’ll seek out Statesman in the area near Ms. Liberty. Ghost Widow and Statesman will grant you enough experience for level 25, as well as some Infamy/Influence to purchase enhancements and inspirations.
After speaking with Ghost Widow or Statesman, you will need to visit the trainer to level up (Arbiter Diaz in Mercy or Ms. Liberty in Atlas Park). Once you’re finished at the trainer, speak with Ghost Widow or Statesman again and select the “Take me to the fight!” option. This will teleport you to an instance of Siren's Call.
A few things to note:
1. None of your characters/progress will be saved on the new server. The purpose is for everyone to have fun while helping us gather data about Siren's Call and PvP. The additional server was wiped and prepped especially for tonight, and it will be wiped again afterward.
2. If you encounter any bugs during this event, please report them using /bug! Do not use /petition, as the GMs will be unable to get to you before it is over (plus, everything is going to be wiped anyway).
3. The regular server will be available again at the conclusion of this event.
Thanks everyone! We look forward to seeing you tonight and hope you have a great time.
