OT: Anyone playing City of Heroes MMORPG?

[Rollo]

heh, funny I was just about to make a topic about City of Heroes.

anyway, I have created an account and downloading the client right now. Hopefully I will meet some of you guys Online.

I will most likely be on the Virtue server, having heard some good things about it.

@dogscoff: Resistance is futile! Give in to the urge! Let's make a norse superteam like none has seen before . How about Mead Man and his little sidekick Squid-Control-Lad .

On second thought, forget it. Wait for City of Villains, and I'll play one of Doc Scoff's witless goons.
(only problem CoV won't be out until 2005, and we'll be busy with SE5 then).

..dumdidum... rambling on... gah, this download takes forever...

The're officially against copyrighted names and likenesses. Which probably means there ok until you get noticed.

After what I said Last night I got it today. It took me like an hour or two just to get my Avatar how I liked it. Was slightly dissapointed at writing my history. I was half way through writing when I ran out of space. I had to go back and cut out bits so I could fit a truncated history in. I've just played for 3 hours (I had to log off to let someone else use my computer) learning slowly. First mssion took ages until I discovered how to jump so I didn't need to walk around half the city. I thought you couldn't use famous characters, but I saw a "Dark Phoenix" run past me.
I have followed the development for months and ordered it the day it came out. Heres some links I've been reading.

You know, there's something I've wondered about for years.

Would a flying superhero come under the direction of air traffic control?

[Randallw]

It depends. Is a man sized flying hero large enough to be detected by radar.

I had my first real team up just now. I have teamed up with 2 or 3 people before. But today wow. There were like 10 of us. First we ran along the road in Perez park cutting down gang after gang. Then we went into the park itself and were cutting down Thorns left and right. If you were at the back, too bad, all the bad guys were dead by the time you got to the front. Eventually we got to the lake in the middle of the park where there are spawns everywhere. Eventually we tried to get out through Gaiman forest and were ambushed and defeated. I made 2 levels in the same session.
