    I made a Deadpool clone on accident. Except my Deadpool clone lights himself on fire.

    The game is alright, its pretty obvious why it went F2P. So few powers to pick from and only 30 levels, and it seems like very little endgame content. But hey, its a PS3 MMO, so that something, right...right?

    How did you make a Deadpool clone with a DC game? Unless you went with a Deathstroke clone which is like Deadpool but without teleportation.

    Or the ability to break the fourth wall.

    For those who haven't looked at this game, is this now worth a look? :)

    Yeah take a look, it's pretty fresh as far as MMOs go, but theres really not much substance once you get past level 10 or so.

    So...DC Universe isn't as fun as my brain imagined it would be. (And that's a lot if, like me you've read almost every Batman Comic)

    Was fun for about a week...then I hit level 15 and the Batman quest things stopped entertaining me.

    So I started looking around for another free MMO, and then I found that City of Heroes (A game I've been wanting to play since I got a free copy of City of Villains when I picked up my pre-order of Company of Heroes way back when, but couldn't because I had no way to pay the subscription) has been free since June 20th.

    Goodbye DCU HELLO OVERPOWERED SUPERWORLD!!!!

    is anybody still playing? i just started, both on ps3 and pc... (4 free character instead of only 2!)
  • d3k0yd3k0y Loveland, OH Icrontian
    Y U NECRO!?

    Also I tried playing a few months back and it was enjoyable to a point. I stopped after only a couple weeks. Though I am paying for the All-Access so I could very easily be persuaded to start playing again.

    Bah, it's only a 2 year necro. That's smalltime. There was a 10 year necro pretty recently.

    Content!

    I was in the beta for DCUO and while it was interesting, it was kind of 'ehh' (not quite 'meh'). F2P makes it more interesting, but for the reasons listed above.

    I'm interested in CoH as F2P, though. It always intrigued me, but I'm averse to gaming subscriptions because I tend to play in fits and starts sometimes with a month or more between play sessions (or like now where my main system has been down since September).
