Well, I was excited about this game, about a year and a half before beta launched, we got a whole new skill system from the one that was originally in place, and the game has not stopped growing.
I have played other MMO's, tested them in Beta, and to me CITY OF HEROES is by far the most fun and entertaining MMO out there. The fun and cammeraderie that I have experienced with my SG and coalitions with other SG's, has been a blast!
With as many Archetypes as there are, and comming from my huge comic background with collecting and drawing heroes since I was 6 (still have my drawings), this game was a dream come true, and the main reason why I have 5 accounts. Yes, they are all active.

Happy Anniversary to CoH, and I wish you and our community here MANY MANY MORE!!!

WOOT!!!

I love this game! Happy Anniversary, everyone! And thanks again to the developers and players that have made me stay with a game this long.

Happy Aniversary. i did not get in on launch , got in in may. But after a year still having fun. I enjoy the little things in the game that makes it unique and that one can see that the devs do take an active particaption in the game community. Hope many more years of game play.

I don't mind That the light is at the end of the tunnel. Just let me be able to see the light.

Woohoo! Time sure flies when you're having fun. Happy Anniversary CoH!

Happy Anniversary!

And many more....

So, you think you are strong because you can survive the soft cushions? We shall see!

Happy Anniversary, everyone!!!

I've played...Just about every MMOG that has ever come out. City of Heroes it he first MMOG I've ever kept an interest in for this long. Between the absolutely incredible team of developers and staff and the sheer fun of the game, I've found myself always drawn back into the thick of things(even from WoW :P).

Sincerely, thanks to everyone for making CoH a wonderful gaming/social experience for me. I'm having a blast!

When this game launched, I avoided buying it for almost six months, because I knew it wouold comsume my soul. Eventually I broke down and bouight it. It has indeed consumed my soul, and I don't regret it for an instant!

Happy Anniversary to the best MMORPG

---

Thanks for all the Fun. I have met lots of nice people and it's been a great time. Hope to have many more.

Ditto and Ditto. I've NEVER found a game that was so group friendly, made it so easy to gather with friends and so elegant in handling variations in level. It's perfect for the person who can only play now and again.

I hear the same said of WoW, that much of their player base are casual gamers, but I've found it takes me a good deal of time to gather everyone together and God forbid one of your friends is a rabid player, there's no way to play with them once they've left you in the dust.

Plus come on...Flight, superjump, teleport, sexy costumes and the ability to smack villains around like rag dolls. What more can you ask for

I've played a few MMORPG's in the past (going back to the original launch of Ultima Online... wooooooo!), but this is by far the best and it's set the bar for all the games that will be produced in the future.

Since I don't have much time to play I debated long and hard about signing up... but this game truly achieves the "fun even if you only play for an hour once-in-a-while" goal that Statesman laid out. I came to love it so much that I bought my wife a new computer, video card, and game account so we could play together.

Without Paragon City, Vigilante Six would have nowhere to kill skuls.

Happy Annual Versity!

Thx WW, I know this is off topic WW, but are they at least going to finish the current comic story lne before shifting to the new comic? I at least want to see how the Kheldian story plays out.

Huzzah!

Will we get a glass of wine with our monthly comic this month?

Was here since day one, expecting to be here next year too.

Happy Anniversary!!

Thanks Cryptic, for a great game. You've not only outdone yourselves, but the whole genre with this work. Congratulations on a whole year under your belt.

One year and two months ago (approximate) I recieved my invitation into the beta for City of Heroes. Having been somewhat following the game, off and on, since it was announced in... 2000, was it?... it's something I was looking forward to. I was hoping it could match my expectations.

I remember logging in with my first character and being blown away... This was no MMO I'd seen before. I'd tested three other games prior to that invite (Only one of note being AO), and had flown through character creation... Faced with the choices in CoH, I spent three giddy hours making my first character, which, in the end, was a jeans-n-teeshirt katana/SR scrapper I patterned and named after myself. I went through Outbreak with glee, then jumped into the game proper... And fell in love. I went and preordered the next day. My expectations? They'd been blown out of the water.

Now, one year after the official release date, I look back on my life in Paragon City. 40 current alts over all eleven servers, with hundreds of others created and later scrapped. My altitis has prevented me from attaining a single level fifty, and even my highest level character just started hunting in Brickston, but I never feel like I'm missing out, thanks to the brilliant Sidekicking feature (The most overlooked feep in MMOs, IMAO... You don't think about it until you don't have it. Some WoWers have been begging for a system comparable). I have helped dissuade critics, turn the nonbelievers, make several people start playing, and have lurked constantly on the boards. I am a proud member of many supergroups, all of which have shown me incredible kindness, friendliness and acceptance.

One year later, my expectations for the game grow, but as they do, the development team works to shatter them again. I love this game. But it is the devotion of the devs that make sure I stay put. Love 'em or hate 'em, they pay more attention to what we as a community say than any other MMO dev team in my experience. They've kept the level of community awareness and responsiveness that they had in beta throughout, and that is why I look upon them with respect.

Thank you, everyone, devs and players alike, for making this one of the greatest games and communities out there. The last year plus has been a great trip. I hope the next year fills up with many more surprises... and maybe a level 50 for me.

*raises glass* Cheers, friends.

Well, it's been 6 months and a week for me and I've had lots of great fun and met some great people.

I love this game but I have to admit, the future is a bit scary ...
