I'll read it, I promise. Whisperwind is very laggy today so I'm just tabbing back and forth while I wait for my quest to turn in.

If you can get your hands on a 10 day buddy pass, you can experience everything and cap out a char.
The game itself is very pretty to look at. The graphics are nice, it runs well and the story is good enough.
Beyond that is seems to pale when compared to COH/CO in many ways. The options for costumes and powers is a small fraction of the two older games. At first the game play feels fun and engaging. You soon realize though that you are spamming the same combos over and over and over again.
PVP is an unbalanced joke. Some of the shortest fights I can remember in MMO history.
Get a buddy pass, treat it like a single player game. Then play RIFT or if you want a superhero type game, CO goes f2p soon.
You realize pretty much same can be said about WoW right? you can make max lvl in well under the trial time for WoW also.Pvp is a joke etc etc

Can you get to max level in WOW in a single day? Several did on DCUO.
Is the balance in WOW so bad that when you enter a pvp arena you play as another character. In DCUO you play as a premade character. In open world pvp (on your own char) a fight lasts about five to ten seconds. In terms of fun factor and playability WOW's PVP is eons ahead of DCUO, which is damn scary and not saying much. It reminds me of some old games with pvp, where people spam one or two overpowered moves over and over and over and do literally nothing else.

I can't say as I wouldn't be stupid enough to play so long to lvl to max lvl in any game in 1 day.I am sure there is some fool crazy euro who could lvl to max lvl in WoW in a day.Cannot compare a game that has had 6+ years to a game not even 1 week released content wise.SOE like them or not are the best mmog company when it comes to adding new content to there mmogs.Compare Eq2 and WoW and most will agree EQ2 has buried WoW I would venture to say Eq2's free content over the past 6 years is more than all of WoWs paid expansions combined.
I am sure they will add tons of content and not take 2 years to do it.Far as the pvp I really don't care I would rather have them not balancing there game for pvp.
I do not own DCOU but did beta test it.If I wanted a casual action mmog to play when I was bored or on ps3 I would buy it and i may very well buy it at some point.

It takes 12-16 hours to hit cap in DCUO, but even more so than WoW you do A LOT more at end-game than you will leveling. You don't even max out your skill points right at cap. You get them via feats (aka achievements). The game is a true MMO, in every regard. If you found combat boring, maybe you should try other weapon-types. You won't be mashing the same combo over and over unless you're terrible at the game.

That's disappointing. Making costumes and choosing abilities was one of the best parts of CoH. And it's sad they went with the single-player quest design. I actually enjoyed grouping in CoH and thought they had a great grouping system.
