Issue 13 Open Beta

The Open Beta for Issue 13: Power and Responsibility is now available to all City of Heroes and City of Villains players!

To check out the Open Beta, all you need to do is log into the Training Room Test Server! If you are not familiar with the process to access the test server, please check the official forums for instructions how to copy characters to and access the Test Server.

Keep in mind that this is a beta version, which means you might encounter bugs or other gameplay issues. Be sure to report any issues you encounter using the /bug command ingame, and join the discussion on Issue 13 bugs and feedback on the CoX boards.

Have fun and remember to document everything!

Coming to a Mac Near You!

According to a press release today, NCsoft is partnering with TransGaming, creator of the popular Cider and Cedega cross-platform gaming software, to bring City of Heroes to the Mac platform this fall. This means no more messing around with Boot Camp or Parallels to visit Paragon City! The City of Heroes Mac Special Edition is available from GameTree Online, and there is an open beta sign-up posted to try the software out ahead of time.

The Mac Special Edition will include two bonus in-game items: a Mission Teleporter power that will allow a character to teleport directly to their active mission, and a Valkyrie costume set, including two varieties of wings, a cape, a skirt/kilt, pants, boots, shoulder detail, chest item, gloves, belts, and a helmet with multiple details. These items will be purchasable separately as a bonus pack in early 2009 to non-Mac customers.

There is a discussion thread on the official forums. Congratulations to NCsoft and TransGaming on this significant development to reach a brand new market segment!
