so are their forums.
It's a shame because the couple of hours I got in this week show it is a really fun game, definately the best f2p game I have played. Had they been able to handle to load their model might have worked out well.
How many of the 300k+ are going to be around in 2 weeks? They are supposed to lauch ads apparently in the end of november..probably wouldnt have been needed.
enough griping, best close range weapon type? I'm currently a HL Brawler, but the specaholic in me wants to swap it out with some other weapon type (maybe even rane like had blasters)

I think I'm gonna make a flyer if I decide to make a new character.

Disagree. I want all costume pieces up front. My characters have to look right, I'm not gonna roll with an "off" look until I eventually get the right parts. After I commit to a look, I always lock the style so new equipment doesn't ruin it.Maxrpg said:
Did they not learn anything from the Wonder Woman's pants backlash?

Can you change your characters name?
You used to be able to send in a support ticket asking for a character rename/rename token, but I think they've stopped that/will be stopping that soon because they're planning on selling tokens in the Marketplace for real cash.Dr. Kitty Muffins said:
Send in a support ticket asking for a rename and see what they say.
If you're trying to rename an old character that got renamed because of the server merge, try checking your mail. They sent everybody who got their character renamed cause of the merge a rename token when they did it. Wait a couple of days for the servers to stabilize and for mail to work in game.
I respec'd lastnight to try out Martial Arts. Did the Bane quests, and decided I didn't like MA much. Brawl just feels right now. Think I'll just dump all my points into it and maybe pick up a 2nd weapon later on.
The limit to six active skills caught me by surprise. I'm guessing I need to look up a fire build. Right now all my points are in immolation. I rush into enemies, explode, and then punch stuff. Works well, but I'm sure it could be more effective.
Did the Halloween bit. I was the highest level at 14. Not sure if they up you power wise but for level 30 stuff it didn't kill me in one hit. We had to reopen the instance a few times, but eventually we got it.
Not really found a use for cash outside of respecs. Glad you can now get items from the NPC mails too.
The Wonder Woman quest levels jumped up a bit ahead of my level. So I took that as a sign to explore, and do Supes/Batman's quests. Gotta say Gotham is way more visually appealing.

Aww daaamn. I saw a lot of people playing this earlier. Is the PS3 version a huge download again?
I don't understand a couple of things:
-Why is it when I entered an event against Scarecrow it selected me as a damage character every time? I choose Healer the four times it took me to beat the thing with some people but it never worked.
-How does the looting thing at the end of the match work? It was a bunch of candy or something and there were three buttons, I choose need and then a message popped up saying I had gotten a 1 and some other guy had gotten a 57 so he got the items or something.
I started over as a villain sorcerer with a bow. Good choice? What should I be upgrading? I heard the summons suck so I choose the sorcerer path that doesn't use summons. Anything beyond that? How often should I be repairing my stuff? It looks like half my shit is down past half their durability level after a few levels.

what's PvE and PvP?
Oh, that reminds me of another question.Ken Masters said:
Which should I choose? If I join a PvP am I going to have to deal with a bunch of heroes just camping out somewhere kicking my ass? Should I level more and get the feel of it or jump in and try to hold my own against some heroes?

PvP has player vs. player
PvE doesn't
If I remember correctly from the beta.

PvP means that you appear as hostile to the opposing faction (good/evil). You're free to attack and be attacked if someone sees you. PvE also has opposing players, but you are unable to attack/be attacked unless you set yourself up to allow it.Ken Masters said:

It's need/greed/pass. People who choose need have priority over those who choose greed. Pass if you're not interested in it at all.

Usually for most MMO, is Need, Greed, Pass.Ezduo said:

The early weapon rewards are based on what you chose. As you get farther into the game you'll start picking up quests with multiple selections for weapons.Shouta said:

I just got off the PS3 servers after making a hero. The server was lagging all over the place about every couple of minutes or so.Billychu said:
