I have the game and had a great experience so far. Launch day for any MMO there are going to be some issues and this game is no exception. I too experienced the falling thru the map glitch which has since been fixed. As far as why you can't fight with certain weapons immediately like one poster mentioned, you have to purchase a weapon of another type to open that talent tree. The above poster seems to be someone who does not have alot of experience playing MMO's or RPG's for that matter. I don't know an MMO/RPG that will allow you off the bat to use all different weapon/power types. Also they limit you to 3 colors for your clothing yes, but they at least allow you to choose those 3 colors. Most other MMOs you are stuck with the colors that are prechosen and you have to rely on finding items that have the colors/design on them that you want already. You CAN choose entirely different colors for hair, skin tone, and "makeup" which is not just make up it could have to do with skin type options for chars who have elaborate skin types such as Lava, Reptillian, Panther, Cheetah, Crystalline, etc. The closest thing I can compare the game to is InFamous, but online with customizable characters and much larger with more storyline and in the DC Universe. It can be a bit of a button masher, especially early on. However as you progress in levels you can define your character to suit different roles and play those out in larger groups. As in fact the later level content is designed for larger teams and you WILL need to group at some point with somewhat of a healer/tank/support type team to conquer certain missions. Also unlike the last console MMO I had played (Final Fantasy XI) you can make a total of 16 characters and not pay a dime extra past the 15 dollar subscription. FF charged $1 extra per month for each char past 1 that you made. The dialogue is well done, the voice acting is great, and if you are a fan of the DC Universe, (and not just Batman/Superman I'm talking they have obscure chars like Ambush Bug and Sgt Rock for crying out loud) then this is a fun MMO which is not a time sink as you can pick up and play for a half hour to an hour and still accomplish something. There is no XP grind here. My only complaints are that there could have a been a few more modes of movement rather than just super speed/flight/acrobatics and also a few more power restrictions or variety. Also the chat system could be set up better however that also could be my unfamiliarity with it because some folks seemed to be figuring it out quite fine by last night and that was 1 day after launch.

DC Universe Online is a addicting game to play. The game itself is very fun to play. But there is an problem with it's bugs still being there as well the freezes on and off at times. DCUO is very playable game. The game's combat system is like an action RPG and very easy use to pull the combos off.

I love it. I am more a DC fan then a Marvel fan so am a little biased. Overall it is a great start for a true console MMO. I look forwarded to all the promised content(Damn I want to be a GL!).

The game is great to play. It also comes with some collectibles that are at least worth what you put into buying the collectors edition. The major drawback is that it takes a while for the scenes to build up when you arrive at your mission(sucks when you are getting killed by something you cant see). The music is also out of sync once in a while. Overall this game has a lot of potential especially if the programmers work out all the kinks.

As a Marvel guy, I was not overly biased to this game from the beginning. Since purchasing and playing the game thou, I have quickly fallen in love with it. I would compare it to City of Heroes or even World of Warcraft before comparing it to anything ever made on a console, though it would fall short in comparison to the big PC MMOs. This is however a huge step in the right direction and the best thing you are going to get on a console right now. It sucks you have to pay, but so far they are proving that they are willing to work for your money by fixing problems as they arise and I'm sure, just like COH and WOW, we will be getting patches and updates that will make this game look completley different by year's end and for year's to come.
