DC Universe Online

ijjysmith · February 7, 2011

Anyone have this!? I'm intrigued by it but not sure about a monthly subscription and stuff.

I do like my comics which is why I'm half tempted.

Any of you guys had a try with it?

It's got mediocre reviews but that seems to be the norm for non-WoW MMO games.

Personally I adore the DC universe, but I'm broke. I met get it in the future though.

weirdly the husband bought it today I have spent hours watching kill gorillas, he isnt overly convinced yet but he wants to give it the first month as thats free. It takes up some space on your hard drive though we have it on ps3

Still undecided!!

Unfortunate for my mrs, she asked of i wanted anything for Valentines...i said this!!

Hmmm...

I'm seriously tempted to get this now. It's £26 on amazon (for PC), and the first month's free, so I figure it's quite low-risk. I don't fancy paying £10 a month for something, but then I guess I can make that decision after the first month.

I've got far too much to play as it is, and not much money, but this looks brilliant... gah...

the best thing to do ( in my opinion) is to wait a while and see what updates they bring out for it and wether you hear any better reviews, as RFUS said its got bad reviews but it will always be compared to WoW and will always lose, obviously this tactic is a bit hit and miss if no-one buys and subscribes to the game the developers wont be interested and will concentrate on other projects.

this is what im going to do, just because im not sure about the monthly subscription aspect.

So the mrs did indeed get this for me as a Valentines present.

Got out of work early today with the intention of giving it a good go before the Arse match.

It took 2 hours to install on my ps3. Two god damn hours. But it's all done now but I'll have to give it a proper go over the weekend.

Thinking my character will be based on Batman but be fat....and be able to fly.

haha oh yeah forgot to tell you that bit, it had a big update last night so if you are passing the ps3 get the update done. husband is on there a couple of hours a night. has had about 4 characters by now lol

So I just bought this.. Will give feedback after some time in.

p.s. 30 minutes into the first update, 69% complete.

Saw you playing this earlier. How you getting on with it?

I think im enjoying it...not sure though. My fat flying Batman with guns may not have been the best choice of character and I'm not sure what I'm doing most times but yet I keep going back to it! Think I'm waiting for something amazing to happen but as yet it hasn't.

I have got to level 5 on a couple characters, only to delete them and start a new one..

I think the game is fun, I like flying around or climbing buildings..

Can't say I see why it's 15 bucks a month though.. Unless it gets much better than I might have wasted money buying the game.
