Might try, but question: is it still buggy as hell? I remember LOTS of people talking about gamebreaking bugs every time I heard about this game.

Most bugs got fixed and is playable. but its like any new MMO will take time to get all the minor bugs. Hell WoW, Warhammer, Champions online all still have bugs that have been in the game since Beta. |

This doesn't amaze me since City of Heroes is going F2P as well.
Since they are late to the game, it's looking more like they are following the market. They should of went F2P before release at this point. --------------------   |

He's asking whether or not the game will have to be purchased with a free subscription option or if the game can simply be downloaded and played for no charge. Typically, it's the second one. Once a game like that goes free to play, it is free and you don't have to purchase a key to get started. |

And yah Cheets, I was talking about whether it was like Guildwars(Buy it to play it) or Champions Online(Free download and no subscription). -------------------- |

Not like the others who get all the fame Group: Citizen Posts: 240 Joined: 21-December 01 From: LR, AR Member No.: 40 Faction: Free Agent |
Has anybody had a problem starting the download? Got the first .exe downloaded and it updated DirectX and Flash, created an account, but now it refuses to download the actual game. I've got 66 GB free and it says there isn't enough space. Says the same thing about my external, and it has over 100 GB free. Any ideas?
EDIT- False alarm, figured things out. Can't wait to give this a try later This post has been edited by Shadowsabre: Nov 2 2011, 12:18 PM --------------------  |

 I brought the Glow Sticks! Group: Supporter Posts: 4,412 Joined: 25-October 04 From: Longview, WA Member No.: 5,224 Faction: Maximal |
Well just started playing right before the servers went down today. I created Darthirian again on one of the PVE servers. It's a bit different then the CoH and Champions playstyles and flight control needs a downward control (though I may be missing the right key.) but the simple mouse clicking may be fun. But the DC comics tie is the strongest hook for it so far. I like CoH and Champions but neither has the story to get me in as much as DC does with the characters I'm already familiar with

Downloaded the game on the PS3 and created my character. We should have a "League of Allsparks" or something.
