Looks like there is plenty of other things to gather too. (Nighthawk and heirloom gear)
Also thanks for finally killing those vet unlocks, but the damage has already been done.

Oh, so if I'm understanding this correctly, it's an account-wide unlock? Sweet! Will it be there for future characters, too?
There was a costume contest? Or do you mean the Fan Art Contest?
Ooooh, neat! Can't wait!
This is an unexpected/cool add. Thanks guys.
When XP earnings during a Double-XP Weekend still feel like I'm underperforming,
there's something terribly wrong with the reward system...
You can find/contact me in game as @PatricianVetinari. Original Join Date: Feb 2010.
Doesn't matter really, it was a bug affecting someone somewhere. It is just nice to see them making some headway!

Ditto this.
ABANDON PATCH! ABANDON PATCH! EVERYONE OUT OF THE BOAT!
...I just recently realized something really disturbing. We're all eating Sodapop3's "humble pie."
Im also having this issue. I was able to log on with my main but when i tried to go to millennium city from the UNITL building I started getting this problem. All i want to do is get my neutral catalyst
I can get inside to UNITY Building just fine with my main.

Same problem here.
Question: With no heroes in MC, who's guarding the cake?!?!
In game: @-seismic-
the creating character bug is not the main issue right now
Based on this I tried out a bunch of characters I have in a bunch of locations.
I could log in on any I tried but the ones in MC. It looks like it's just MC that's fraked up.

Same here. Is this the end of anniversary event, lockout from game?
EDIT: I had a character in Canada, and was able to log in to him alright. Most of my other toons are in MC, so I guess that's having difficulties at the moment.
On a side note, I applaud the correct spelling of "levelling" in the prize packs.
Stuffy on the old CO forums. PWE ate my username.
Anyone wanna try logging in characters who are in other zones and seeing if we can't crash out the instance? If it works, we know at least part of what's causing it at least.

ACK!

It's MC. Either the MC server has crashed or it's in a black hole state. If your characters were logged in MC you won't be able to log them in it appears or transfer to MC.

Ok good, it's not just me then. Misery loves company.
And they wonder why we get antsy when they announce a "Friday Patch".... :eek:

They have left "occasional bugs" far in the dust. "bad customer service" is long in the rear view mirror. "Breaking two things for every on they fix" is a distant memory. I now log in primarily to see what new and interesting ways they have found to screw up now. I literally burst out laughing at this current error. Seriously, no joke, the idea that they could put up a patch of any kind without completely crashing and burning the game is actually HIGH COMEDY. I have actually come to LIKE the bug show. It reminds me of those old Three Stooges reruns me and my dad used to watch when I was growing up! I can only assume that as we speak, somewhere in the bowels of Cryptic World someone has Trailturtles' nose clamped in a set of pliers......

'Wen considered the nature of time and understood that the universe is, instant by instant, recreated anew. Therefore, he understood, there is in truth no past, only a memory of the past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. Therefore, he said, the only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.' Terry Pratchet The Thief Of Time
'Thank you all! But we are closing the Champions Online server. Not enought asian players liked it so it's bye bye.
Thank you all.

Thank you for that image.
Seriously Cryptic, the occasional bug is fine but breaking the majority of the game every other week is just too much.
Your sarcasm is great.
