Greetings Everyone!

We're pleased to let you know that starting at 10am (Central Time), Tuesday, 4/6, the City of Heroes servers will be available for your gameplaying pleasure 24 hours a day! If anytime after 10am (Central) tomorrow, you cannot access the game, it means that there is probably a technical difficulty or a scheduled maintenance (which we will do our best to alert you to ahead of time). In these situations, your patience is most appreciated!

Have fun testing to your heart's content!

Online Community Coordinator, City of Heroes

Yay!

Wow. That's good that they have them up like 20 days early. Hopefully it means that there wont be many bugs for the launch. Or am I wrong and most MMORPGS have their retail servers up and running this early?

Thats 24/7 for the beta test as opposed to the previous Wed-Sat Schedule they had been using.

Wait a sec, they had the Beta only on wensday to saturday? That's different. Did they do that so they could update on the other couple of days or what?

                 Dont worry most peeps still having dropping connections and super lag. Nothing has changed except they have opened another server and gone 24/7. The only thing I see different is that is you wait for lag now it keeps connection alot of the time instead of booting you. Guess it might be when you play because by the time i get home seems like EVERYONE on . Hope they fix problem soon because love the game when I can play .

Well I for one, and several other people have also concurred, have felt as close to no lag in this game as possible. Even during the stress test when there were a couple thousand people all in the same zone the lag was minimal. Might want to check your end...
