City of Heroes

[Stugots]

Anyone ever played?

I was watching some CoH machinima tonight and it made me think of reactivating my account to see how it is these days.

I'd probably just spend all my time creating characters like I used to though.  (so many good superhero ideas).

I played it for a little while, but I don't think I ever got above level 30 or so. Always ended up not liking the power sets I picked.

Though it'd certainly be something to do until Warhammer comes out

[Arkanine]

I played it for the first couple of months,had a great but then moved on...............

[Reddawn]

I played in beta but never played after that....forget what game I was playing.....FFXI maybe?

had a sweet super hero....fresh out of getting flogged by some Romans

[Snackcakes]

it sucks. i played for about a month, not very fun

[Redbear8]

I've got it as well, could never get into it either...

[BCBrent]

I only played Villains.

It is such a great concept but the mission system and the missions themselves are dreadful.  I did have a lot of fun creating different things though.  That, and any game where you can throw a car at someone is always a great idea.

I played before WoW. Had a 50 Blaster, several toons in the 30-40 range, and some villains that never got past 20.

The problem was, You take forever leveling, and while leveling so very very slowly the game is all "go to this door, kill everyone/grab glowies/beat boss, repeat" and then, eventually, you get to 50 and ... and ... Nothing. no endgame, no progression, no way to improve yourself, Nothing.

So what now? make another alt and grind grind grind or move on to a new game.

CoH had such potential, it was FUN to be the superhero, it was great to take on 10 mobs at once and feel powerful, then fly through the skies like a god. they never realized their potential though.

Plus the "great Enhancement diversification" nerf really ticked me off.

[Sultress]

I had several toons in it, but yeah, like Argolorn said, after the enhancement nerf, it was annoying, then so went went villian it became annoying to try to find groups, and I wasnt' going to pay that much money for the same damn game with a few new skins and animations.  I do miss the friends I made there though... except glummy, who I drug over to WoW...hehe

[Jim Tressel]

Sultress, you had several toons?  I don't believe it for one second!

[Arctic]

I double dog dare ya to make him

[Moreglum]

i only kept makeing new toons so i could expierience the goodness that was frost fire REAPEATEDLY..but now a days...the game is dead...there are hardly any people on..so if you thought it was hard to get a group then......try now....it sucks....other MMO that had premise killed it

[Sultress]
