***Official DC Universe Online Thread***

I'm playing fine at the moment, made a frost character with duel wield guns :D pretty awesome. Although i am on ps3 :P
 
Last I checked, it got removed from the Steam store (EDIT: it's back on my bad). You can download it free from the official website though - you'll be better off that way as steam has a nasty habit of forcing a full redownload and repatch after you patch the game up :(.
 
Anyone having issues logging in, if you go to the Options in the Launcher, then Clear Cache. This will solve the hanging on the loading screen issue for you. Seems the game won't let you back using the last character you played with until you've done that. That being said, the queues were fine about an hour ago. Now, they are getting higher -__-
 
My problem is the launcher just shows the sony online entertainment and not the login screen, worked fine the 1st time i played it now its just getting annoying. Have tried disabling all my firewalls and AV software but still wont work, even put atcive x stuff of allow but no joy.
 
its actually pretty damn fun imo, some of the quests are annoying, kill this kill that kill them again etc, but its pretty fun :)

Ummm actually, they just updated on FB, Twitter and the forums with this:

The response to our Free to Play launch has been truly incredible. Since Tuesday we have increased the number of concurrent players by 1000%. We were definitely planning for a great response to the changes in the game, but these numbers have exceeded our already high expectations. We apologize for the current queues and we are working on additional equipment and optimizations to alleviate the issues. The DC Universe Online team has been working day and night to work through these challenges and will continue to make sure we create the best experience for our players. We very much appreciate your patience as we work to make these improvements.

I would suggest visiting the Forums themselves, cos there are tons, and I mean TONS of threads relating to the login issues and what not. Do not just assume SOE are not doing anything, cos they are.
 
**** poor to be honest! They should have anticipated that there was going to be a huge demand once it went f2p... how can they even think that 1 EU and 1 US server was going to be enough!

The problem was the fact they merged the servers when many people left. They should have indeed separated the servers and things would have been back to normal like at launch or just after. So who knows what they plan on doing since going F2P.
 
To all the people complaining, give it a week or 2 to settle down, yes they have problems now but have stated they are working on it. Not like anyone expected a 1000% increase in playerbase just because it went ftp. Not a lot you can to do prepare for that!

I did... when a game is going free especially one with a big name like DC i was expecting 2 pvp servers and 3 pve not1 of each. Look at lotro when they switched they added servers, its just smart to do so.

As I said previously, they did have separate servers from launch. Problem back then, was lots of people left (unable to afford, couldn't get used to the combat system, etc). So they merged the servers. This made it so people queuing for pvp and duos/alerts didn't have to wait for almost 30mins to 1hr to play those instances.

Yes, I agree that they should have added more servers when going F2P, but as stated, no one would have predicted such an increase in player base. Eventually, it will die down and people will wait for it to die down or play the likes of SWTOR when that is released next month. I have been ranting like a mad man myself the last week since going F2P, but even I am now coming to the idea that in the end, they just were not ready for such an influx of players. We'll give it time and see what happens. But, queuing for almost 30mins to get into the game is not my idea of an MMO experience.
