Superhero MMO combat systems:
DCUO>CoH>CO
DCUO is fluid, and hit hard, love the animations and the combos. CoH is good enough for a game of its age, and never had a problem with it. Some of the latest powersets made great job for it, like Street Justice or Staff Fighting.
CO is awful and clunky. Cant play it anymore. -
Quote:Thats me.Stage 1 Denial: This cant be happening. They just introduced new powersets, they were beefing up Blasters, creating new content and making all kinds of quality-of-life improvements. There must be some mistake.
Stage 2 Anger: NCSoft, youve made a powerful enemy. From hells heart I stab at thee; for hates sake I spit my last breath at thee.
Stage 3 Bargaining: How bout if you increase the subscription fee? No? Then take my first-born; hes strong and hell work hard... How bout a kidney? Ive got two of those just keep the game up and running.
Stage 4 Depression: Cant bring myself to play its too painful, like rubbing salt into an open wound. Wheres the damn Ben and Jerrys?
Stage 5 Acceptance: (sigh) Guess Ill log on while I still can. November 30th is coming fast. -
Im still in denial, lol
Not able to play again...
I would not hold my breath waiting for CoH to return from ashes with a Resurgence after sunset.
But I would love that so effing much!
It would be risky... Most of players moved away. Not sure how many of them would return, specially if the data is lost.
We will see what happens. -

Got my fav number 13 tattoed on my back!
Shame on u, HardRider lol
66 my take... almost satanic. That render is pretty awesome!
Taken: 2, 7, 13, 14, 24, 28, 42, 43, 47, 49, 53, 57, 66, 68, 75, 78, 82, 83, 95 -
Some may now, but you should check out David Nakayama devianART account for some CoH awesomeness.

I asked a while ago about this underused promo piece in proper dimensions, and you can find it there and download in higher scale.
Its so UBER.
It just makes everything even more sad
My wallpaper its amazing but it makes me so sad... -
Im curious about the werabouts of David Nakayama "Noble Savage" and Cheryl "Dink"...
-
I admire those players that are putting their efforts together into Plan Z.
I'm an unemployed graphic design and 3D modeler and I know develop something like a videogame is seriously time consuming, but hey, want to tell those guys:
You guys rock!
This may take crazy time, but if u have fun and like what u do in the way, it doesnt matter the final results, and dont care about what people have to say.
People should encourage them, and cheer them! Not try to get their work and hopes down. -
While Im enjoying now DCUO, I would make a devil deal and trade both CO and DCUO in exchange of CoH keeping alive lol
I need something coming, an emulator or something. This game cant just vanish. -
Quote:Its better option and much cheaper to go GOLD and suscribe and try out GOLD features for some time...After attempting Whiteout solo on as a silver Night Avenger I now look fondly on the ambushes in CoH that used to be annoying.
At least CoH tended to ambush you with minions and maybe a lt on normal difficulty. CO sends wave after wave villain+ and lesser types, without a pause. (So no health regen or re-stealthing to use the NA's schtick). The boss battle where one master villain became three master villains (and couldn't be targeted until aggro'd so no assassin's stike) was where I was thankful there are no nega-stars once you run out of normal stars. Stars are another thing I'm not entirely happy with. That mission is going to be sitting in my log for awhile.
Not being able to easily find what things look like is yet another but that's an issue with the wiki.
But it's that or nothing and for the $25 I've spent on it (NA, the account wide costume slots, a costume set and parts) I've got my claws stalker mostly existing and my staff tanker is now a scythe scrapper (heavy wizard's staff a> does not have a nob on the end and b> is more like giant's cancerous legbone, but the batwing scythe looks nice). If freeform slots weren't so outrageously expensive, $50, I'd have been hard pressed to resist buying one to make a more tanker version of the Devastator/heavy weapons, $5 is impulse money, $50 is not
Then if you go SILVER again with time, you can just buy the things you tried and you know you want for sure.
Anyways is better to stick with suscription.
I forcing myself to like this game, but I think I cant anymore.
Im going to unistall it.
Im going to miss my staff fighting so much and DCUO gives me some awesome fun combat and crazy combos with my staff character. -
I played CO beta and for some time later... Was fun.
But I gave it another later, and the game controls and combat feels so damn bugged and clunky, I cant stand it.
Bought a Xbox pad and started to play DCUO, and the game is on other level.
Every villain, every part of the HUGE cities got history, their own place, their own cutscene, voice, minions... Everything is detailed.
DC got some of the best comic characters, specially villain gallery and they get advantage from that.
The combos are crazy fun, and travel powers too.
The only negative point is the character customization. But you unlock TONS of new costumes on the way, and its always a motivation to play.
Not sure if I stay long, but for the moment is fun as hell.
Just for the record, there will not ever be a game like COH for me... -
I tried to give CO another chance...
Maybe it was a buggy day but... Really? Server was not responding every minute, the combat cant get any more clunky (tried mouse and xbox pad), camera is a mess...
Maybe I need some assistance with settings, and used to play CO a lot in the past and I remember it was better...
But compared with DCUO smoothness and server stability, fluid animations and fun combo and power systems... CO is a joke.
I want to like CO because the awesome free power system and the crazy customization but Cryptic make it hard for me to do it. Its too damn clunky and buggy
Any advice? -
By new adventures of the devs, can we expect they go indie and can work on CoH their style? Or a new game? Or the misterious proyect they were working on?
I prefer people to be clear...
I dont want to have high hope of anything related a "Resurgence" of CoH without NCSoft... -
Well, someone please work on Infinite Heroes based on I24 pretty please!
-
I just hope if an emulator ever comes out, its based on I24.
That was the issue of my dreams, my wishlist fullfilled... Never saw the light becouse of those NCSoft morons. -
Quote:TY so much!It's fun to me in CO. I kind of like it better over there. It does nice damage but doesnt feel endurance heavy and thus allows more attacks. It's over all about the same speed as titan weapons, a little slower than with momentum but hell of a lot faster than the initial COX attack but just as fluid, to me.
Im enjoying doing crazy fun combos in DCUO at the moment, but only playing early stages of that game.
But maybe I will try a VIP month for CO too.
Dont want to get too deep into any MMO game again... Its so painful right now to see CoH fade away after 6 years playing -
Im going to miss the hell out my Titan Weapons character...
Its been a long time without playing as suscriber for CO, so I havent tried Earth, Wind, revamp for Martial arts and the Heavy Weapons...
So I got a question for CO players in this forums:
Are Heavy Weapons fun in CO? Like having nice combos and similar powers as Titan Weapons in CoH?
Not sure if I should give it a try as a VIP, feels clunky compared to fluid combat and animations in DCUO.
Thanks! -
I tried CO again yesterday...
Game is still damn clunky for movement and not feeling the combat gameplay...
I know DCUO is worst than CoH and CO for customization at first, but the powers and the real time combat, combos and animations are really fun.
I barely have time to play, so I guess I will play DCUO from time to time, to smash things and do crazy combos and will call it a day.
I still got the "main and ever favourite MMO shut down depression" so I dont want to get deep in any other game again as I did with CoH. -
I played CO in beta and some time after that...
Now I tried to play a Free Sorcery character but Im not sure about combat and gameplay...
Why you have tons of powers when blocking and using a powerful AoE or TAoE blast power is enough to defeat mobs?
I have a few lvl 40 characters and I ended up using just 2 or 3 powers...
Thats meh for me.
I like the attack chain and every power in build has a purpose like we have in COH... -
If they stopped development or new items added to market, or we had some months without new issues or news about it, servers merged at some point...
We could see the closure coming...
But a serious company doesnt announce the shut down of a MMO 10 days after releasing its latest powerset.
Nature affinity was added to the store on August 21...
We had I24, Superpacks #2 (this alone would made a lot of money), tons of new powersets on the way, and costume sets too.
Dont come and tell us u saw it coming, Brillig... Not even the devs saw it.
Im not buying that, same way Im not even close to buy that NCSoft "exahusted all options"... UBER BS. -
Its pretty obvious they dont intend to sell.
Just bury the game. Gone. Next!
I was sad, now I feel rage.
NCSoft sucks!
All this shut down was managed in very poor unproffesional ways.
They could give us a warning. Something, like: "Guys, game is under revision and could be gone if not making more money"
They could come with a B plan to make some numbers... Who of the players would not pay for I24 as mini expansion? If that means saving the game...
Things could be done, but they had 0 interest from the start of the anouncement.
Im pretty sure, they even did not listened any offer.
That or they are asking for insane numbers.
Either way, NCSoft is gone for good for me. I Dont trust them as publishers. -
Just what tittle says... Will be good to see them.
Wish they could give us some kind of good news... -
Celebrate closing?
Seriously?
I feel like NCSoft is laughting on my damn face
Got like 3000 points unused... What do I do with them?
Cant play the game anyome, I tried but its to sad for me. -
Im not playing any game cause Im busy.
Wasnt playing CoH that much neither lately...
So if the game is sold and saved, I will be back in full force!
But I think its obvious we are already doomed. -
I think NCSoft will offer to redeem some Paragon Points in exchange to other of their games suscription or something like that...
