***Official DC Universe Online Thread***

Is there a location to get more of an idea of technical data on hero creation choices and ability number crunching?

I've always been the type of player that doesnt like to pick poor skills that you can undo and get the character close to perfection of that class/archetype. What i'd like know really is the difference in dps and playstyle between dual wield range and dual wield melee.
 
remember this isnt out in the shops yet only online for this country so EU servers should fill up come friday :)

Will be getting this on monday when i get payed, looks like a nice change from all the other mmos.
 
CK, what did you ingame character name turn out as? would love to get me and my brother into DC Raiders, I registered on the website, but i guess people will be busy. Seen Plenty of DC Raiders running around on Zero Hour.

Managed to do an 8 hour stint with my bro last night, we are at Level 15. going to crack on again tonight. Excellent fun playing together with people.
 
Also for any other new players come in, really recommend the Zero Hour US server, was nicely populated for a first day yesterday, plenty of people around to do events, alerts etc. with a lot being friendly and talk-able people.
 
Why are people playing on the US servers? Why are people even recommending european players roll on the US servers? Surely it's better to play on local servers; better connection, ping, time zone matching etc.

Anyway. I have a question about PvP. Whats the main differences between the PvP and PvE servers? Are they like WoW's PvE and PvP servers?

Because Ck and i agree reckon this is where the most people will be, A) they will likely speak english. b) population is likely to be higher due to Americans being a comic culture long before europe.

Worst possible thing i can think of is a server without players.

PVP is all out PVP.

PVE is where you have the choice to toggle PVP off or on. Personally think this game is better suited to PVE.
 
It just doesn't feel right playing on US servers. :'< Can't bring myself to do it, not matter the benefits. Surely the EU servers will be just as populated.

Agreed, as soon as this patch finishes downloading i will be rolling on an EU server, surely when it comes to raiding etc the time zone differences will become an issue.
 
Yup, a lot of euros played on US servers when wow came out, a vast majority came back to eu when the raiding times became too much to put up with. Also, if "lots" of euro players go to the US servers because thats where more people are, what if those euro players just all played in europe? You'd have equally as many, just perhaps less servers in total but equal population.

I rolled on Eu as well :)

Have no idea what my characters are in terms of roles like tank etc.

Was in such a rush to play the game, I probably didn't read all I should have. I've got a hero with mental powers, martial arts whose mentor is wonder woman and a villan with dual pistols, fire damage whose mentor is the joker.
 
Having an annoying problem.

With Vsync on in the game settings, it limits the fps to 30.

With Vsync set to off in the game settings, and Vsync forced in ATI Controls it doesn't enable Vsync in game.

With D3DOVERRIDER set to force Vsync, and Vsync turned off in game, the FPS is capped at a lovely silky smooth 60. Niiiice.

BUT. When I press primary attack, it halves the fps (it doesn't SHOW the FPS changing on fraps, but for the duration of the animation, it significantly lowers the fps).

No idea whats wrong. Apparently, on the forums, people are moaning about the games vsync locking the game at 30 fps too.
 
I'm 15 min away from my download completing on Steam. Bit of a off the cuff purchase but hope its fun. My only worry is that once I fully downloaded it...I'll then have to update it again and i'll never get to play it XD
