A) Is Champions Online ready and fit for release? B) Is it a worthy follow up to CoX? C) Will it go out the door full of bugs and unfinished content? D) Are the gameplay features expansive enough to satisfy and go beyond the expectations of today's mmoRPG'ers?

Early next month actually. But if it'll help you sleep soundly tonight, I have been hearing good things from the people in the closed beta. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Playing: Nothing Played: Champions Online, CoX, STO, PSO, WoW, lots of free-to-play crap Looking Forward To: DC Universe Online, Blade and Soul

What he s told me alone(not to mention watching him play) made me pre order. I loved COX, but it needed more in content and char development. All I can say you re in luck if thats what you want. Not to mention the combat is awesome.

The combat is very fast and as the other poster said 'awesome'. I would never call this CoX2. The game really plays differently and what they didn't do was CoH with a few new bits thrown in. Hope is not a strategy

Yeah I have heard from people in Beta (these are people that said it was not ready in May) that its ready. There is some polish that needs to be done but its better then most games at this stage (coughageofconancough).

I have been playing Champion's Online now for a few weeks. They have made big changes to the game. I am loving the game right not cant wait for the release. If you are going to play the game use a Xbox 360 controller. Yes it make the game allot easier to play . A) Is Champions Online ready and fit for release? If it is released tomorrow i would be very happy with there game. there are very small things that need to be fixed. They still are adding thing to the game. So i would wait till they are ready it will only get better. B) Is it a worthy follow up to CoX? YES YES it improves in just about every way. Powers are way more fun. Being able to pick any power from any power set is so much fun. C) Will it go out the door full of bugs and unfinished content? Nope there is very little unfinished content right now. For the most part it seems like they are tweaking alittle here and a little there D) Are the game play features expansive enough to satisfy and go beyond the expectations of today's mmoRPG'ers? There is way to much content that i see so far. I am only at lvl 24. At 25 you will be able to make a nemesis who will interup missions you are on. Be part of you over all story. He or She will be a very big party of other people universe too. There is always the character creation allot bigger then CoX. You also are able to change your powers look. you can also change where the powers come from fist, open hand, chest , eye, etc...

Do you make your nemesis at level 25 or do you make your nemesis during your character creation and encounter him at level 25? I thought I heard somewhere (possibly a video?) that you make your nemesis during character creation. Also, how quickly can you level...not that I'm into powerleveling, just curious how "grindy" the process is. Thanks

Wow because I played all weekend and didn't see a thing about an item mall. You think it's not ready? Just curious as how you would know one way or another unless you were an actual insider. And by that I mean an employee, not some random guy who can't be bothered to follow the agreement.

If CO manages to be polished as well, and if the design decisions they made truly improve on CoH's faults, then CO will be a viable contender.

Agreed, Aion is polished for sure, I was amazed at how polished it was. That said on pure enjoyment, CO was way better for me. Don t get me wrong CO is very polished from what I ve seen. When it comes down to it, it s fun that matters to me and CO has it for sure. Besides I m sick of the fantasy setting, love it but need a break from it for awhile.
