INFO ABOUT CITY OF HEROES:FREEDOM

City of Heroes: Freedom Is finally released. Now the game becomes free with this update and is available to everyone.

So Freedom is something like an expansion to the game itself. It makes the game available to everyone however there are still subscriber options which give you the ability to buy items availalbe to only subscribers. The game itself all the levels, zones and powers ect are free of course. However some items and new powers coming will be for subscirbers. Such as the Time Manipulation Powerset said to be coming it will not be availalbe to free to play players. So this update is simmliar to Champions Online: Free to Play update.

EDIT: Nvm xD

So Polygone what character are u planning to be ur first

Mm though choice, somewhere along the lines of Poison Ivy? If not I would love somewhere near a Ms marvel character (yellow energy, super strenght)

If all else fails I shall have a Emma frost based character (just try to show as much skin as possible, oh and wear a cape xD)

Could you tell me if the Nature archetype is free? My game is updating (35%!)
My Release topic : http://marvelmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,8934.0.html

Newest Release : Raven

Yes it free, the upcoming Time Manipulation Archetype will be for VIP members.

I honestly dont care about time manipulation, since none of my characters need it (well I guess maybe emma, for a bit more added)

Good to know Nature is free :D (85% btw, im having the feeling im still playing it today :D)

Newest Release : Raven

Dont worry i allow double posting up to 4 posts. I dont know why its saying that try deleting the game as well uninstalling it removing the files and reinstall it again :) maybe it will fix it

Im in love with the game, the psychic / psionic powers have awesome effects. My character is called Emma Summers has mental powers and her secondary powers are psionic powers which means she can shoot psionic bolts and stuff. And small telekinetic blasts. I love it, i will try the other power sets sometime
