You're getting new computers again aready??? And you laughed at me for spending what I did on my rig, it still plays brand new FPSs with nary a hiccup. Not to mention, it's now been over 900 days since I've had to deal with the Blue Screen of Death...

As for pre-order, you get to play for 3 days before launch. Not that that's a big deal. NCsoft is just trying to avoid the usual MMORPG First Week of Doom syndrome, and you'll probably not get to pick which server that PC you play during that time goes.

With the pre-order you are automatically part of the beta testing plus you supposedly get access to powers that will never be offered otherwise. Personally, I just want to try a few character typs and see what I like before I start playing for real.

As for the computers, Deva's is from when we moved to Calgary so it's 6 yrs old. Definately not powerful enough for any online gaming at all anymore. My computer is a little over 2 yrs old but we got it with just enough to be able to play EQ again. And while it still meets the requirements to play MMORPGs it barely reaches them and causes problems with video seizing up and stuff. I figured since I am getting wifey a new comp, I can get one too.

I was just checking the site for the game.

Beta testing additions closed on April 7th. After that date, nobody new gets in. People who participate in beta testing get a special graphic attached to a power that is determined by what store you pre-ordered from. They also get to reserve a name for opening day.

Regardless of whether you're beta or not, pre-orders do get to play in the release 3 days early, to give the servers a true, post-beta test.

Well, I have been downloading the beta software onto my existing computer for the past 2.5 hrs. It better freaking work.

Yeah, I went and checked it out, it looks like the 14th is the actual end of Beta deadline...you do need to be invited to play in Beta, however.

Still alive but in between places at the moment... hopefully be up to good soon

Awesome. Things are wrapping up here.

Kay, that's pretty much it for Ish 2. If you have something else you want to say in it, go ahead. Issue 3 will begin tomorrow or Tuesday. The five orginals have 3 points to spend or save as you see fit. Miguel, I'm going to shoot you an email concerning what your PC is doing now.

 

[Mimic]

I will bank the points and I await your email.

+1 BAB.

Aside from recovering, filling his mom in, dealing with the media and taking up patrolling again, Tyrone will be resetting his passwords on his Luthor Rhymes accounts through a wonderfully complex network of computer transactions to cover his tracks. Finally, time to update that website of his, update his fans and divert some funds to have a PI keep an eye on Aaron.

I'm pretty sure his mom should still be loaded from his *cough* blackmailing venture but if not, he'll use his stored funds to set her up. Hopefully Linda Walsh doesn't come calling too terribly soon. Not that she isn't a bangin' lady or anything, but that whole deliver me to the evil doctor stuff will take a little time to get over.

Sarah and Miguel can be staying with at his mama's place if they want. Doubtful she'll say no to that.
