Fair enough. But rather than quit a game cos of that reason, just see if anyone else has raised this issue on the DCUO forums. Someone is bound to have found a way to resolve this.

They have. There is no way to resolve it because of the way the game handles the graphics settings. You can't change anything in the ini settings and the ini settings reset every time you load the game, read only or otherwise.
People are using d3doverrider, or nvidias vsync options in the driver settings, but it's causing the fps to drop down to 30 again when certain animations/effects are rendered.
So until they allow us to amend the ini files like we could in beta, and like we can in EVERY unreal3 based game, theres not much that can be done.
I complained every week, along with countless others, on the Everquest forums for FIVE YEARS because they wouldn't fix the viewport/ratio settings for widescreen monitors, even though it was easily possibe to do. SOE never listen. And considering everyone uses widescreen monitors nowadays, you think they would have taken 5 minutes out of their life to change the FOV.

I see your point. Well, I do hope they resolve the issue soon or they will end up losing a lot of customers. Whether or not they care to make changes remains to be seen.
It could be done in beta through a simple ini edit. Even the Tech CSRs still seem to think you can do it this way, but they're wrong. It's a problem that CAN be fixed.
The only thing they seem to be saying at the moment is the 30fps cap on vsync is for people who use 1080i hdtvs - which will be about ZERO people on the pc platform.

I'm thinking this is going to come back and bite them in the ass after tomorrow when all of Europe starts getting their boxes. EU servers for games tend to get pretty crowded at the start but we just don't have the staying power with games like the yanks do.
I got this today, waiting to get home before I play
You mean .. before you dload 12gb of files?

Looks like the EU server just got a massive injection of players or there are just more players on around this time, the place is packed, easily seen 50 different leagues appeared in the last 2 hours alone. Guess there were a lot waiting for the retail versions.

Straz I think the buddy key only comes in the Retail boxed version, Steam version didn't come with the keys.

Not in a league as yet, solo'ing atm, Seems though that on the EU PvE server, Extraordinary Gentlemen, Silver Age and the third I forget the name seem to be the biggest leagues at present.
If you join the EU PvE server drop me a mail in game to Thaw
Just messing about in Gotham atm for a change of scenery from Metropolis
