When can we expect for MMORPG site to add DC universe online to its game list? or its already there and i can't find it? i saw the E3 trailer and it looks really nice.

E3 Trailer

Man, the combat looks lifeless as hell.

The world in that game looks lifeless as hell too. Meh move along nothing to see here. SOE is getting even worse!

Is this even going to be a MMO and not a RPG with combat? Do you play as the characters or make your own?

massively reports they will get a chance to use a playable build at Comicon

I wish i had more info but for now this is all i could find. Not a lot of information about it at present. Since Marvel Universe Online has been canceled i hope this one sees the daylight. Could be interesting.

New DC Universe Online details emerge

As with a traditional MMO your character will level up as you progress, and you'll develop your powers. When the game starts you might be able to fly, but only later will you learn how to pull off specific moves and attacks in mid-air.

Although you don't get to "be" any of the famous DC characters, you do get to interact with them. That might mean you end up saving Superman from being stabbed with a shard of kryptonite by Lex Luthor. Or, if you're a villain, you could cause carnage by chucking cars around downtown Metropolis, thereby encouraging the boy in blue to turn up and fight you.

Metropolis is one of two large shared environments revealed so far, the other being Gotham City.

Unlike World of Warcraft, DC Universe will be comprised of a mix of these environments and separate instances. And while there will still be instances and raids, the emphasis will be on fast-paced action rather than grinding.

There will be PvP arenas

do we get to the actual dc characters? or we will be customizing our unique character and jus have the powers of the actual dc characters?

i must say visually champions online look alot better than dc universe online.

You'll get to create your own superhero or villain, choosing their particular powers, according to the Edge article.
