I doubt I'll get an invite because I was unsubscribed for a time.

None of the stores I've called in Phoenix have their pre-order boxes and quite a few of them were completely clueless about the game. I spose that shouldn't be a shock...

City of Villains Closed Beta Is Starting!

Hello everyone!

I am very pleased to announce to you (as promised) that the start of the City of Villains Closed Beta Test is finally upon us!

As we have mentioned in the past, first priority into the Closed Beta will be offered to long-time, currently active City of Heroes subscribers as part of a program designed to reward their continued support. Please note that due to the sheer number of people who have been with us for 12 months or longer, not everyone who qualifies under this program will receive an invitation today. Because of hardware constraints, stability issues, etc., beta tests typically start small and then ramp up gradually to include more and more people. This test is no exception. So, if you are a long-time subscriber and you don’t receive an invitation right away, please do not bombard us with PMs and email asking why you didn’t get one! Everyone who qualifies under this program will be invited into the Closed Beta eventually.

Contest winners should expect to receive invites within the next couple of weeks. We will send you an email in the coming days to verify your account information, so please be on the lookout for that.

For those of you who pre-ordered City of Villains or won a beta slot at E3, the exact date of your beta entry is still being determined. However, it will be at a later stage, after those who qualify under our long-time subscriber program have been invited.

As a reminder, once you have entered the City of Villains Closed Beta, you are legally bound by a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Please be considerate and don’t flaunt your participation to other members of the City of Heroes community. All it will do is make the people who haven’t been invited feel bad, and will only encourage them to ask you for information that you cannot give them. Please note that no discussion of the game whatsoever includes no taking of screenshots, no verbal anecdotes, and no commenting on message boards or in chats about any aspect of the game. Should you do any of the mentioned or violate the Non-Disclosure Agreement in any way, it will result in automatic removal from the Closed Beta and legal action may be taken against you.

We are very excited to see the start of Closed Beta and can't wait to see you there!

Yours in villainy,
Alexa

So far so good.  Waiting to hear more about the next step.  If it's a thumbs up, I hop on an airplane and visit.

Quick question though: Have you ever unsubbed from CoH?

I'm just wondering if it's an early signup date that qualifies people, or longterm subscriptions.

Nope; i was in from beta, bought my key online, did the 2 day head start and have subscribed ever since.  Even though I hadn't played in quite some time, i didn't mind keep it open since I think Cryptic did a good job and do enjoying playing it when the urge strikes.  Call it voting with my wallet.

That reminds me, i need to go cancel my WoW sub.

I was also in the CoH beta, maybe that's why I was invited to this one?

But I wasn't subbed continuously since beta.  I think I unsubbed a year or so ago from CoH before resubbing last week or whenever.

I got boobies, however they're attached to my wife.

And I'd like to add a preemptive no to any "picsplzkthx".
