No, no Super12 is right. I just looked at the replay and that's definetly Underdog busting a rhyme in the corner.

I've been playing this game since it came out. I will never get sick of it! I don't know what's wrong with some of you people out there.This game is the best thing I have ever invested money into, except for my divorce. I love it and I'm 41 years old!

I play it and I like it.....and no you don't just solo like some idiot said a few posts back. You start out with solo missions and as you level up you get more group missions. By the time you reach level 30 (top level) there are no more solos. Everything is group at that point. That is my biggest complaint. They should still mix in solo missions as well for those that prefer it. Other than that it's a decent game.

You can't use DC characters either. You have to create your own. I have a group of all other publisher lookalikes that I use like Dr. Solar, Mar-Vell, the original Blue Beetle, Hulk and so on. Character creation could use a few more options but you can get close enough to the look you want in most cases.

Its not a bad game, my best friend, wife, and I have played it and its okay. It does need a better setup and needs to be split to focus on the two platforms its on. There needs to be a team for the PS3 and one for the PC since they do not interact. It would help both systems get their content much faster. It also needs to add more power choices. Back in beta there was a might and mastery set talked about being available but its still in limbo. It also needs a dedicated heal spec for healers and controllers could benefit from an electricity set. It is flawed but what MMO isn't at launch anymore or never was?

If the Devs really start listening to their player base and create the stuff they want to see in game, it could redeem itself. I'd go back for the Might and Mastery powerset so I can play a tank w/o having to be Ice or Fire to so it. But all in all, its more or less mediocre to say it best IMO. It has potential but it's all in the hands of the Devs at this point

Everytime I go on, no one is there, the [frick] is that about there is like me and four other people on the whole server (not literally) but you can run around for ages without seeing anyone else, I like this game but it does have its faults like everyone has said but I like to play in groups and there is never enough people about. It was great when it first came out but ah well.

worst game i have ever played. you can send all the time in the world you want to make your character look however you want but as soon as you put on a new piece of equipment it changes everything. the controls are ridiculous. waaaaay too much lag. this game has way too many flaws. total waste of money.

@ SKGannbit, you know you can lock your costume so that it doesn't change when you put a new piece on...right? My biggest complaint is, I really wish i bought the PC version instead of the PS3. hahaha

1.)Instead of asking random people to join a group there should be a choice to join a public group or set up private groups sort of like you can do in shooters. That would improve the game some.
2.) I also think you should get two or three costume presets to quickly choose from.
3.) Getting in and out of the various arenas should be easier too, why not enter a building for this instead of selecting it in the menu? 15 min next available...yeah right!, anyone else have a problem with this.
Other improvements could make this game better, but it still has great character creation, and plenty of missions. its not quite not worth a subscription and I will most likley not renew after 4 months of playing. Make improvements or make it free and Ill come back.

....also there should be player vs player races, chases and a way to challenge another character instead of just jumping him all thug like. i still like to jump a bastard but I'd like to challenge 'em too.

There are PvP arenas and races. THe PVP events are arenas and capture the flag type of combat scenarios and I know of at least one PvP race that starts at the Daily Planet building but I have never tried it. I passed on that.

There also ARE player created groups, they're called leagues. These leagues usually send out messages to their members informing them of upcoming Raids. If you hang out in the JLA Watchtower you can always hook up with someone forming a raid. There really is plenty you can do with it as a social online game, but absolutely nothing you can do solo once you hit level 30.

Still I find it kinda cool when someone looks through the glass walls of the Hall of Justice and sees the Hulk or Mar-Vell standing there with the "Big Three".
