I didn't know anything about this game until 2 weeks ago, I'm supprised something that has looked this amazing gameplay wise (and voice acting wise) hasn't gotten more media time.

Mark Hamill as the Joker sealed the deal on me getting this game, I don't even care if it ends up being bad because it's Mark Hamill as the Joker.

PvE server, since from what I heard of the beta there's no such thing as PvE on the PvP server.

If this is true then I will drink battery acid in rage.

Remember it's just a game, take breaks from time to time, and being on the side with bloated numbers makes players lazy ultimately.

Unless you're all naked at the time.

Watched TR0LL's stream for a bit and this at least looks good and the action looks fun. Having never followed the beta or anything is it any good to play? I played the poo poo out of CoX and loved it, but the underlying graphics and mechanics have grown stale to me. Champions online was just an unfinished, unpolished mess in my eyes, as well.

I've been playing it all day (going to start frapsing now that I hit 15), I havn't had this much fun in an MMO since...well ever.

Bah that sucks. 14 gig seems rather huge even for the base game.

This game is HUGE, I was freaked about the 14gigs as well until I got into game.

I'd like a perspective on the game from a PS3 stand point. Me and a friend love co-oping through games, open world especially open world stuff. From what I see in the thread it's a solid multiplayer beat em up, but sort of a weak MMO. Is that a good assessment? We were really looking for a new game to sit on the couch and play with.

It's a good MMO, but some people where expecting more M (highest number of people needed for content is 8, Duos are (obviously) 2mans).

I think that's the problem at the moment: people aren't using their powers. Everyone just mashes the poo poo out of their weapons attacks.

Everyone is still leveling, god help us on alerts at cap.

I love this game, but I would like to make a quick note:

gently caress Mr. Freeze.

Gorilla Gorod in the hard alert.
Cannot be targeted in phase 1 and will 3 shot anyone in range.
Good thing is he can't move till P2, bad thing is you need to engage him to start the fight.
Leads to someone taking 1/2 of their HP in damage to start the fight, without a healer it's a LOT of fun (and by fun I mean OH GOD ROLL SPAMMING).

Speaking as an Ice/Brawler, I went with a lot of the defensive powers and I'm just not feelin it, especially in Duos and even Alerts. Reflections a must, and Hibernation but the rest are meh. Have to check to see how much Defense and Toughness, I think its called Winter Ward, far bottom right of one of the trees, gives.

The Ice Golem thing isnt really worth it either I think for 100% supercharge. Sure, its nice to suddenly have boosted stats as a tank and heal for the damage you do but thats 2 Hibernations you give up which are easily more accessible as an OH poo poo button.


Edit - For the +90% in Tank, I'm pretty sure its working at least on the stat screen. I was seeing 1300 defense (or was it toughness) on my character and I'm pretty damned sure my gear isn't that good yet on its own.

Hibernation does drop agro tho, and the 100% has a good AoE (M1 tap -> M1 hold) ontop of looking drat awesome.
Also +200 hitting ranged attack while in my giant ice golem of doom form makes me smile.

Sounds like Ice sucks but Reflection is really good.

Reflection makes it worth while, nothing makes me smile more than seeing someone crit themselves for 500

On a side note, I was having a lot of fun in the PvE missions of the game until around level 21. Now it is becoming quite boring with limited options and a lot of the same old thing. Now that I hear the majority of 30 content is running the same instances I did in while leveling in a different hard mode, with only 2 raids, I am not so fast to care about getting to 30 anymore.

This is basically what WoW is PvE wise.
Also most of the lvl30 alerts are compleatly new and not hard modes.
