Games DC Universe Online - beta gameplay preview

[old.Tohtori]

Sunglasses on superheros are so 90s....

Anything on the character creation menu is so 90s

 

[old.Tohtori]

Well, third times the charm as always. Hand blast + ice, like it very much. Circe missions alo very ncie and villainy enough.

Joker char will be for more of a lunatic fun time

 

[Aada]

Another ice whore?

 

[Aada]

Made a Mental dude today and i have gone Hero gonna see what it's like.

 

[Bahumat]

Ding 30!

 

[old.Tohtori]

Another ice whore?

I've noticed that everything gets on peoples tits, so i'll just go with what i want

Oh and on a sidenote; blocked my firt goldseller today. It's officially an MMO now.

Couldn't find a quick /ignore thing, so had to chase the bugger down until it was in range.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Had some fun with the character creator and even if i'm NEVER going to start playing with this past the first ship for my own fun(reason why should be obvious what with the aliens), and even if millions do the same for sure, had to do it

 

[Bahumat]

If its who I think it is (currently on phone) then "i've got balls of steel!"

 

[old.Tohtori]

Yeap

Though now that i've been around a few blocks, i've seen so many silly things at level 30, so this guy wouldn't really be a problem, perhaps ven funny to some who randomly see him.

Heres a tip add them as a friend then ignore them.

 

[Aada]

So who's up for starting an FH guild or any named guild we can come up with on Hero side then? would be nice.

 

[old.Tohtori]

How deviant, ofcourse a villain would come up with that

I'm having real trouble to get into the spirit of being a hero. It's just so...so...Bleeeeh. PErhaps i need to take a page from Lex's book and beat up some goodie tightpants for their DNA, then injuect myself with it.

I get ya.. but so far i've found the Hero's a lot more mature in general i'm gonna see how it goes i can always make my Hero look evil

 

[Tilda]

I'm keen for hero guild!

 

[old.Tohtori]

Yeah but, but...there's nothing like climbing to a rooftop, finding a civilian there, placing him(or her) inside a shiledbubble and punching them with the iron filled fist so they go flying off into the distance!

I dunno, i might make Duke Nukems brother on the hero side, batman or wonder woman as mentor, not superman...gods no...it'll be a cold day in hell before i suck on that pretencious lollipop.

 

[Reno]

I'm keen for hero guild!

In the spirit of the Duke I have to ask this: Commander Keen?

Danita

 

[old.Tohtori]

Heh, commander keen or megaman for sure

WEEEEIRDEST thing happened to me today;

Went into a solo instance(ya know, boss fight story stuff, one of the first ones).

Stayed by the door(inside the instance).

No enemies around.

Went for smoke.

Came back and saw myself incapacitated.

First thought;

Checked my combat log and second thouhgt;

I was taken dwn by Danger Mouse!

I mean...this guy!

And i never even got to see it happen

I've looked but can't find any mention of any person about it. So either it's a really odd bug, or there's a freaking mouse killing people who are afk.

I actually LOL'd

 

[Aada]

Well my hero toons name is Timeless send me a tell and we can set one up.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Well didn't want to play as Duke 'cause people would complain.

So..erhm..made the same character with a BLUE tank top(with a mushroom cloud on it) and called him Detonator Dan

Hero side, might play there sometime.

 

[Bahumat]

I am called Terrytibbs lol.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Well roger me until my bum resembles the vietnam flag, i thought this wouldn't happen...which was quite optimistic of me...but as i noticed my character screen, i realised that i ahd been struck by an infection that's been plaguing the world of internet gaming since the first customization tool arrived.

Altism.

Now i can't choose which to play

Be careful it could lead to quitting.. happened with me on Champions Online and COH/V but my Hero toon is it now getting to 30 with it quite liking Mental but damn it's easy mode being a healer and having heals to back you up during some of the solo instances. Have to say died once on the first heh.

 

[Keitanz]

I have been questing with these damn gorillas for about 2 hours, started as level 5 and I'm still level 5 im an ice - handblaster - aerobatics guy.. leveling seems really slow to me, anyone got any tips?

oh and also is it possible to change the appearance of my guy? (like when you make the character)

Odd. Should be able to get a level or two in that time if you do quests and the sidequests too. You can change the appearance of your character by equipping items that drop. When you equip something you unlock a style and can then choose that look in future.

Very weird are you sure your not just trying to grind mobs instead of doing the quest?

Grinding = big no no in this game do the quests.

I started my Mental controller last night got to lvl 8 in just under 2-3 hours as of now i'm just logging off after playing on and off for the day im lvl 16.

Pretty easy to level up.

Anyway had my first great group tonight everyone seemed to know they could press T to change rolls including the Tank and Healer i was Control and the instance went smooth as butter felt great too as everyone knew what they were doing.

 

[Ctuchik]

Regarding pvp, the one thing I fear is people running/flying away. If you can do that like in champions online, it will be frustrating.

there's enough "lasso" powers without a cooldown that pull them back in for that to not work to well.

Oh yeah it's fun to see some fly boy try to escape when you pull them back and smash 10 bells out of em

handblaster + sorcerer is great in pve.

not only do you get "proper" heals you get a healing pet as well

 

[Tilda]

Any suggestions for a good crowd control class with a bit of damage?
Am currently TK with handblasters but open to suggestions?
