Today is the official launch of Champions Online and to bring in the first official day of gameplay, Cryptic has released a 'State of the Game: Launch Day Special' to address some of the issues and give players a glimpse of things to come now that the march to launch is over.

It’s been an amazing early start weekend, and we’ve been burning the midnight neutronium responding to issues you’ve found and following your suggestions to make the game feel and play better. It’s never too early to start that communication between players and developers, so we’ve carried that essential interaction from beta right into the game launching. We’re reading and listening, and addressing things as quickly as we can.
