The Player Help System and You!

Now that Issue 20 has launched, it's time to talk about the all-new Player Help System. Many new enhancements have been implemented to both indicate to people that you need help, and to let others know that you can help them. Read the official announcement for more details.

NCsoft Launcher released, bonus aura!

NCsoft have released the NCsoft Launcher, a new way to download and patch City of Heroes. For a limited time, customers using the launcher will unlock the new Wisp aura for free. The launcher features the ability to download patches via a content distribution network, as well as other enhancements.

A Mac OS version of the launcher will also be released (along with access to the Wisp aura for customers using Mac OS) "as soon as possible". NCsoft will be disabling the ability to launch via the old game updater once migration to the new launcher is complete.
