Play New Guest Author Missions On City Of Heroes

never played it thought it was a wack game. but this sounds good

This MMO never caught my eye!

Its a really good game. Did u happen to get the Arc ID #?

FutureFoe, I [frick]ing love the Spaceman Spiff avatar!

CBMer's, If you don't like mmorpg's you won't like this game. I, however am a World of Warcraft fanatic, and I have played this game and EVE regularly. I haven't played CoH in a while, but I remember that my biggest problem with it was the power sets. There isn't enough customization in terms of a characters powers. Small things also aggravated me too, like how no matter how you make an energy based power-set character, their blasts are always purple. Why can't I make it green, or red. just small stuff like that. And the way the powersets work together, I could never quite make a character exactly how I wanted them. I confess though that no game can top WoW in my eyes.

EDIT: Holy rusted metal Batman! Did Hickman just comment on this article?! Doth mine eyes deceive me? I would just like to take this moment to say... [frick] YOU BulliedNerd! What we have to say IS important to the writers and higher ups in the industry. Thank you Mr. Hickman for allowing me to make that point ;)

Lmao, I have to share this with someone. I am just sitting at the computer coddling my baby boy watching this kiddy show Marvel Superhero Squad, this shit is hilarious. Hulk doing Pilates, Iron Man youtubing italian dining beavers...

Black Widow to Doc Doom: I have so many chocolates, should I start with the Caramel or the coconut?

Doc Doom: What kind of question is that?! The caramel of course. Coconut displeases me...

EDIT: sorry for spamming your article with this comment, but I laughed so hard I nearly pissed myself. Had to share it.

@ themyth

lol, i know what you mean, lol. super hero squad might be for kids, but i'll be damned if it isn't entertaining, lol. i just wish my baby girl was old enough to enjoy now.

Baulders Gate & ICE WINDALE is better than WOW LOL!

Great game, and fun arcs. CoH is - for me - the only MMO I could get into, and not just because of the subject matter (CO covers the same subject matter, and blows) but because of the awesome community, and the fact that the Devs communicate on a personal level with their players.

And to those surprised people still play it? Its not the behemoth that WoW is (and WoW isn't as big as they'd like you to think, either), but it still made 25 million for NCSoft last year. Sooo . . . yeah. People still play it.

Spock, lol, I still play Baldur's Gate 2... a lot.

OptionFour, lol "(and WoW isn't as big as they'd like you to think, either)" ummm, how do you figure. I'd say over 10 million subscribers is quite a lot. You sound somewhat resentful.

RealfirstAvenger, Thank you sir! Are you alliance or horde?

For those of you that like MMO's, I recommend you try EVE, especially if your a hardcore Star Wars/Star Trek fan. It's loads of fun and very challenging.

TroyHickmen, Perception is relative... indeed. I'll jumpstart my CoH account and check this new stuff out.

I hated the game. The quests are repetitive. The only good thing about it is there is no monthly fee to play.

I play City of Heroes, and I lead two inter-related Super Groups. It's the only MMO that's gotten my interest, and it's gotten my dollars for the last 3 years. I'll have to check out Troy's arc when I get a chance. And yes, there's a monthly fee.

I'm not a big video game guy, having spent most of my life in pen and paper games like Heroes Unlimited or the old TSR-published Marvel Super Heroes. Video games are sorely lacking in comparison, and City of Heroes got my attention because of the customization options, which only get better the longer the game goes on. As an avid roleplayer, it's a big deal for me to see my characters have their own unique look. I don't really play many console games these days for that reason. Just not enough room for creativity.

realfirstavenger, For the Alliance! (nerd commandments and all...) Ihave an 80 Nelf Combat Rogue and an 80 Dranei Dualspec Shammy Resto/Elem. So I agree, Shaman RULE! I am a strict Raider. Only PvP I do is when some asshole Horde gets froggy and I spank 'em ;) I am psyched for the Trek MMO actually. I like EVE and I am thinking Trek could top it.
