I have one pressing question about the character builder; I hope someone has heard the scoop and can share it on this forum. Here's the question: Will the user be able to select stats for a character that are not on the 22 point buy system, other than by rolling?

In the campaigns that I play in, we use the point buy system as laid out in the PHB, but we don't use 22 points. I hope there is a way to create characters for our game that don't use their ability generating system, even if I have to just sort out the points on paper and just enter them on the character generator. If I can't generate stats for a character to be used in my game, the whole app is just useless to me.

You can just type your numbers in, but if your character's results could not be generated by the point-buy system you will be flagged as house-ruled, and on the status page it would list that you're house-ruled because of your ability scores.
