I love I17 and UM. And you?

Really? 30 FPS is my happy point. Anything above that is largely unnoticeable to me in this game. And I've yet to see a game where there's a noticeable difference above 60 FPS. A friend of mine was bragging about how he got Arkham Asylum running with max settings at something like 200 FPS. It's a novel thing, but ultimately pointless. Kinda like getting a riding mower to go 100 MPH.

Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

I don't know how much people paid attention to them pre-17, but now the ragdolls are not given enough movement time. Therefore when the enemies fall on their backs, they usually end up in really weird positions. I know there are people who don't really pay attention, but I noticed this right away.

My favorite thing is being able to e-mail influence/infamy to yourself. Makes it so much easier to outfit a new hero/villain during their infancy, and help out a higher level toon who may need just a couple more million for that vital IO, if not send it to them outright.

Ultra mode and my computer don't get along at all. My weak-*** Nvidia 6500 can't even come close to cutting it. UM is dead issue to me, but I really don't care. I'm not a graphics fiend.

Love the doppleganger arc, but does it make me a jerk for not feeling bad about beating the hell out of my very own toon?

I can run ultra mode with all the bells & whistles, but for such a small improvement in the graphics i'm finding that it's not worth the performance hit. That and frame rates becoming unplayable with AA & AO on at the same time. It really should be running much much better on new hardware than it does considering the graphics are still mostly dated even with everything on.

I can't say i'm overly impressed with what they've done.

The small QOL improvements like email and the auction are great, alongside the new email system. My favourite part has to be the new story arcs, although i haven't tried the hero one yet i loved the villain one.
