Did Area 51 for the first time last night - seems quite long for a low level instance but enjoyed it! Apart from the fact we all wiped on the last boss twice and gave up :p

When it comes to doing the likes of Area 51, best to take a couple of higher level players just for that extra edge ;)

So glad I have hit 30 now. Can't wait to get stuck in to get my tier 1 iconic armour. Woot. I feel good now.

Oh, now this was funny: last night after I hit 30, I was roaming around Metropolis for a bit and noticed a thug trying to break into an ATM. I flew towards him and cos I have the super strength power, I was able to pick it up and smash it over his head. I definitely felt "super" after that :D

Nah, they just arent really an imaginative bunch :) I'll post a pic of my hero when i get home to show that not everyone looks blue or generic-muscle-guy. Got a chick in a white trench coat, purple hair, burning red eyes behind the classic black eye mask etc. All good fun, looks badass...

My character may look blue, but we can change the colours in game so we're not stuck with the same colours throughout the game. Besides, I'm waiting to get my tier 1 armour before I can do some serious colour on my character :D

In fact, I've collected so many costume styles, I'm going to change his outfit tonight. ;)
 
I like the fact that you can create how you want your hero to look and then lock it so that new armour doesnt change the looks, of course you can always tweak it later if you want but i like mine as it is for now.

I see your point. Well, I do hope they resolve the issue soon or they will end up losing a lot of customers.

No offense to this Yosiah chap, but I doubt many people will refuse to play a game because the vsync option isn't to their liking. Screen tear is such a minimal cosmetic problem that I personally don't ever really bother with vsync.

If it genuinely affects people's enjoyment of the game, I'd hate to see how they'd have coped 10-20 years ago.

You got a point there. I do think it would be extreme if people stopped playing a game for that reason alone. I've played games in the past where the graphics were not upto scratch. There were a number of reasons why, but in the end I stuck it out and kept playing. Now with my 4870X2, I have minimal problems :)

Screen tearing on DC Universe is immense for me with Vsync off. Never before have I played a game without vsync where the tearing was SO prominent and distracting.

For some reason, with vsync enabled - I am getting a constant, never changing (constantly updated reading on fraps) frame rate of 30. Yet there are periods in the game when it suddenly slows down, yet the fps remains at 30.

What can cause apparent FPS drop without any fps change. If I run without Vsync, it never drops below 100, and averages 180.

Trying to get into this game made about 10 heroes/villans lol. Ive been trying to figure a lot of the game out but it doesnt half feel like a pain for pc gaming, can really tell its for console. Ive resorted to using my xbox360 controller which has really improved the game for me.

Im looking for an english league on the eu pve server but i cannot find one! they are all french or german which i do not speak a word of.
