Champions Online: also City of Heroes/Villains

(1/2) > >>

Okay, so I'm really pumped about the development of the MMO Champions Online. I love superheroes, and I used to play for a while on CoH/CoV pretty casually before my life got sucked up by that beast that is WoW. So I'm looking over the website and I start to get that "Haven't played an MMO in a long time" feeling. It gets so bad that I look up the CoH/CoV website and see what new changes they've made to the game in the last couple years since I've really played it. Well it looked like quite a bit of content and now that classes are over I've got a little more free time (especially until I find another job), so I ended up finding my old discs, revving it up, waited for the couple gigabytes of downloads and whatnot and then signed back up online for a month's worth.

Does anybody still play this game? Anyone plan on checking out Champions when it comes out? If anybody does still play, maybe you should play with me! Before I was the freaking definition of casual gamer and so I've only got a level 15 Blaster and level 19 scrapper on the Justice server, and a level 15 brute on Virtue. I'm also willing to make a character of pretty much any type on another server if I need to.

Both Tyler and I have been on the Champions Online beta and found it wanting. I just got on last week, so I'm prepared to give it some more time, but as yet, it basically seems like the rather boring, vanilla original build of City of Heroes.

Tyler:
I still have 2 CoH accounts, though neither is active at the moment. It is a nice game to jump in and out of, as you really do not need to farm anything to level and stay "top geared". Also, 3D movement.

Well, I'm having an extremely good time, spent a couple hours on and met a few people, including another guy who'd just started back up after a long hiatus (if you were ever on the Justice server it was one of the SWAT drone guys from the Paragon PD, who's leader apparently just rejoined), me, him and several other ended up doing the Sister Psyche Task Force and I leveled from 19 to 25 today all in all.

I also finally unlocked a second costume slot and made a sort of occultist detective costume for my character (Diego the Great, Magic Scrapper w/ swords and fast reflexes) since the SWAT drone (H5) invited me to the SG. I don't know how this will go down because before the supergroup had pretty strict standards about its members and had at least nominal roleplaying, but since the leader's only just come back I guess they've lowered their standards a bit (and probably can't afford to be picky, seeing as the Justice server isn't nearly as populated as it once was)

Now someone just needs to resurrect Justice Radio (KPOW) and it'll be just like the good ol' days on the justice server, :P. Man, its funny to think that this game came out when I was 16.

Jace:
I've been playing CoH since like 2005. Love that game so much, most of my friends hate MMOs and say how much they suck, but I like it. Right now I play on Wednesdays with a once a week group, I just do other stuff the rest of the week, but I am gonna start playing more I think. Its a fun game, that's for sure.
