Anyone in the closed beta? Just wondering becuase I am and if anyone else is maybe we could group up or some such. and no I will not brake the NDA so please dont ask for screens, vids or any such thing. I will say I like and am having fun when I can play it but my play time atm is very limited due to work.

I did not get picked as a beta tester, but I tired. If it uses the old rules from the RPG, it should be interesting.

as I understand it Cryptic bought the Champions pnp rpg rules (and then licenced them back to hero games---note I could be wrong. (but I'm not)) thay are modifieng the rules to work better in an MMO/computer enviorment.


Q: Will Champions Online use the HERO System from the Champions PnP?
A: Champions Online does not use the HERO System. We have however taken plenty of inspiration from the HERO system by taking the core concepts of character and power customization and incorporating them into our vision of the Champions universe. You'll see some terminology that is familiar to the HERO System such as Advantages, Perks, etc. but we're implementing them in a way better suited for an action-gameplay MMORPG experience.
