 Not Boring: Character Creation, :)

Boring:

1. The same tutorial mission with every new character, takes the fun out of creating a new character.

 

I ran into that brick wall after the 3rd char I made. Kept making new chars cause it was so much fun, wasn't actually logging in with them. That was a big signal to me that the game wasn't for me. Bored in OB. Not a good sign.

I agree but in time they will be adding more and more but also with time Mortal will be out and ill be leaving this game in the kitty litter box.

As long as you play this game Casual its awesome but if you start playing it hardcore like alot of other mmo's yeah sure i can see you getting tired of it.

More content in a game that doesn't excite me rarely helps. I wasn't playing hardcore. I merely couldn't work up the interest to play the opening tutorial more than 3 times.

Maybe they'll have an option to skip it in the future? Plus I'm also more of a sandbox player. Prefer mmo's that have a story, but are not story driven. Want freedom.  Not trashing, just my preferences.

I'll give it another look if they offer a free trial a couple of months down the road.

I'd pay 5 bucks for a standalone char creation app though :)

I think the best thing about CO is character creation area, making your superhero is done well. The tutorial is fine for what it is but after that the game just doesn't compel me to play it anymore.

The missions are straightforward and simple the quests line doesn't draw you in for a primary PVE game. You don't feel attached enough to your hero to continue leveling, and that is a problem the game has. No reason to group it's pretty much a pure solo PVE game. Instance after instance it doesn't feel like a game world, ala AoC.

Combat is rather simplistic and one dimensional, energy builder then nuke ...rinse and repeat zzzz

PvP is bad. One arena full of random players duke it out for no reason.

This game just doesn't have that "it" factor to keep you motivated to play. I'll most likely play till Aion is officially released, since i enjoyed it much more.

 

 

 

 

Ohhh! You don't tell bad about CO or people will flame you! ... Too late...

Nah seriously, I fully agree, felt the same about CO.

And this is just the first few days.  It doesn't have quite the same replayability factor that CoX does, especially considering how the crowd would love to roll alts.  It's unfortunate.

I got somemore play time and I want to like the game BUT it just doesn't draw me in. It's not exactly boring its just not compelling. I'm not excited to ge the next set of powers. The gear rewards are uninteresting. The missions not that inspiring.

Its not bad it's just not my game I guess.

<p>They said they are working on a way to skip the Totorial. They also know they are low on content and are working on it. They have added more quest with 2 patches so far, but one of those just went into test. I am finind it quite fun my self, but I am simi casual so that could be a factor as others have said.</p>

Whatever you might think of the game, pro or con, in my opinion it does not bode well that they lowered the price $10.00 after the first month. Bad sign indeed...

So yeah, I tried it...hoping this may be a good change of pace from the norm.  I think the character creation was well done...that's about it.  The game wasn't buggie, or "wrong" persay.  It just doesn't hold my interest.  The fight mechanics seemed sluggish and badly planned, and the story, if you can call it that, just wasn't interesting.  Oh well, it was a waste of money for me...maybe my 8 year old will like it!  I guess super hero MMOs, much like sci-fi MMOs, are just to hard to make a good one.

Some people wait for fun to happen for them and some make their own fun with what is given to them.  You're the latter, not the former.  Those that whine, bitch and moan are the former group.

Yes, blame the consumer for not making the game fun. Makes sense.
