    Player of a first-wave Taxibot,
    As a patron of the original taxibots, thank you.

    And since, in the next update, the other side is getting a big fat upgrade--invariably it will go the other way: you'll be expected to start in the Galaxy's Last Stand tutorial, instead of Praetoria.

    If you're talking about game expansions, booster packs (Science Pack, Mutant Pack, Steampunk Pack, etc) - these are in the NCSoft store which is web based. If you're talking about server transfers, extra character slots, these are handled at the character selection screen. If you're talking about the Rocket Board, Titanic Weapons powerset, etc - these are not in the game yet and the store that will carry them does not yet exist.
    This probably should have been the second post in the thread. Thanks, Ironblade!

    This thread has a valid question in the original post. And the correct answer (/petition, /ignore, move on) was already given.

    But I knew, I just knew, when I saw the thread title that certain persons would come in here and do their usual thing and waste everyone's time with the usual shallow and vacuous posts.

    For the actual in-game store with powersets, costume pieces and more fun in-game items you'll have to wait until i21/Freedom is released later this year.
    I know it's semantics, but I have to disagree. I've purchased stuff from the in-game store before. It may be kludgy and have minimal content for sale, but it was entirely in-game. Further, you can't buy the in-game items at the PlayNC store. Which, while having all the "good stuff" one would probably want to buy, is not at all accessible from in-game.

    I would. *shrug* You asked. I can think of a ton of things I'd do with it.

Just like I6 dealt with the PvP zones and ED while City of Villains added new powersets, new contacts, new enemies, and new zones.

    Absolutely correct, on all points. Star has everything covered, but as Aett notes--they could pull something like what they did with GR. IE, patch our servers to I21 24hours before the F2P account migration occurs.

    What

    What are we supposed to see?
  9. I only had a few comments from my limited experiences, and Xan pretty much covered everything nicely. What's griefing for some is still participation for others. I guess I didn't do a good job of explaining that in my first post in this thread.

    But by liquidating inf., we're winning again!

    Seriously though, crazy maneuvers there, xeaon.
  11. You'll see it at the character select screen. IIRC, it's a shopping bag in the lower right hand corner. Hopefully someone can clarify, because I don't use it.

    Pretty much the only things that I know it carries are name changes and extra character slots.

    All this will change with Freedom.

    I should be on Tier 7 when Freedom hits.

    thanks for answering
    Gol-
    Tier...VIP9 I guess, here? I've already got them on my account, too, so one of my "pre-existing" tokens will be spent on them as well.

    And there you go. Again, I think this is all we're going to see because A.) not terribly many people are eligible for it, and B.) we'll have the Rewards in-game long before 90 months rolls around.

    In any case, and NS has referenced this before--ALL the old textures need updating. I wouldn't even mind mitten hands that just looked better.
  16. I can confirm that /vault is in game and awarding just fine along with the Tenacious badge.

    I don't expect any redname post on it, because it will all be swept into the Paragon Reward program very soon. Arguably, they're better off NOT saying anything about it.

    Gol-
    If you're past tier seven, no.

    If you're before tier seven, no.

    If you're before tier seven, and want to go to the next tier, yes.

    Hey, it's me. You know me. I may be posting silly, but I'm agreeing with you.
  19. Warning, this thread contains angry vampire cowgirl.
  20. There it is.

    This is why you'll never get to retire.

    If I had access to the new CoT models and I were Dark_Respite, I'd be making a video of this right now. Good $deity would that be hilarious.

  24. Sounds like I missed some quality posts.
