[QUOTE="cignus_pfaccari, post: 5509422, member: 14557"] I tried CO for a bit, but the character creater was surprisingly inflexible (seriously, how can you not have a dinosaur or dragon head if you have a bug head?), and it labored my system something awful. I've kept up my DCUO sub, because it's (a) significantly different from WoW (which I also play) and (b) it's a lot of fun. I don't have any system issues, the gameplay's pretty fun, and it leverages an existing IP that I already kinda know from the DCAU series and a few comics. It's very twitch-based, and you have to balance use of your basic attacks with your weapons (fists, two guns, rifles, staves, 1h weapon, dual weapons, 2h weapon, etc) with your powers. That being said, chat in DCUO is abysmal; you have to have some sort of voice program to do anything requiring coordination, because the chat feature makes you stop whatever you're doing to type things out. But I definitely enjoy it enough to keep up my subscription, even though I don't play as much as I could (I do it mostly on WoW mini-breaks). Brad [/QUOTE]
