City of Heroes

Post by Softball »

Anyone here playing this? Debi and I just got this last week, and it's a HOOT to play. If you have any desire to play as a superhero online and help rid a virtual city from crime, then check out City of Heroes. You can read more about it here:

http://www.cityofheroes.com

We are playing on the LIBERTY server, and are in Galaxy City currently. I have 2 characters so far, a Martial Artist Scrapper named VENGER, and a Magic Blaster named ELECTROCUTE.(He uses Electricity for his powers). You can totally customize the way your character looks in game, with hundreds of outfits and colors. I'll take some screenshots and post them here if anyone is interested.

Can you play the villains or are they only AI-controlled?

Villians

Post by Softball »

The "quest" related villans are all AI controlled. You only control the "Superhero" that you create. There is no PvP or Superhero vs Superhero combat yet, but I am really hoping they add this into the game on a future date. At least some kind of "zone" that you can enter and fight PvP.

I want to play the new Massively Multiplayer game called "City of Thugs" where you get to play your favoite gangsta of choice. Your character is totally customizable too. You can wear either an LA Lakers jersey or maybe an Atlanta Falcons jersey. Then you can choose your crime-fighting vehicle. Maybe a Cadillac Escalade SUV or something more traditional like a 63 Chevy Impala low rider.

Panzer...

Are you being serious? Or are you mocking us? If you are mocking us, well it's just because you're jealous we are playing MMORPGs and you are not. :P :P :P

If you are serious, then I don't know what to say, I am speechless. :roll:

This game is to stamp down on crime, right? I thought we were the ones causing havoc, not stopping it.
