Ya they are fun with a bunch of good people to play with, sadly tho MMOs are time consuming tho. They more or less make you grind away leveling up and getting that next power or loot (if loot is in this game).

Then once you max it all out, expansion time and repeat the whole process. Which is why if this is a fun game, i will be a casual gamer on it.

From some of the game play footage I saw it looks like the open world has both hero players and villian players which I think is awesome but I wonder if it will cause a lot of ganking which can be a pain.

[Vince-Vell]

i bet they will make it so you are a hero first, then release a villian expansion. So you can restart over as a villain just like CoH.

I doubt there will be any ganking, if they use the game systems like CoH and WoW where once you get the first hit, the mob is linked to you for the kill.

Ever since everquest, they fixed ganking due to the amount of chit people would do in it.

hero and villains are different servers except for certain huge missions. there is PvE, PvP and iconic 2Pv2P servers. plenty of solo and group missions from start to finish. there is no crafting in this one but there is something similar that they are calling detective work. sounds cool.

[hawkeyethearcher]

you do have to pick hero or villain from the start and there is no turning into the other type, at least not in game at release but maybe in the future

oh yeah and no adee there is nothing about character creation out there. it is the most wanted thing right now besides beta but in all the videos and with all the questions axed it isnt even hinted at. the power sets that are known are mostly from watching video.

there are only 3 travel powers at start
flight- plenty of choices on how it "works" for your character like superman style, wings, jetpacks. there is even a sonic boom if you fly fast enough

superspeed- includes running up the sides of buildings and across water. freakin sweet

acrobats- leaps and grappling hooks are part of this.

you will be able to shape change in this either as a nature power set like beast boy and become animals or a mental power set and you can make yourself look like someone else like mystique

Thanks man, I have to say the more I read and see this game the more excited I'm getting to play. I was a long time player of CoX and I loved it. I've been waiting for something to fill that void. It looks like this will be it!

[adee]

Guess you were right hawkeye...

It wont stop me from playing but that's a lot of HD space.

[hawkeyethearcher]

well that is the one that started the talks about the huge harddrive and the devs said thee cannot confirm those specs so it may be differentr at launch but i would guess it is pretty close
