DC Universe Online News - Early Storline, Specialties Revealed

Posted by Michael Bitton on Jul 22, 2009  | 4 comments in our forums

Some new information on the early storyline and character choices players will make is being reported over at Variety's "The Cut Scene". In a sort of City of Heroes origin choice on steroids, players will choose from three specialties when creating a hero or villain in DC Universe Online: tech, superhuman, or magic based powers.

This choice will determine who you hook up with when you start the game, as well as  the storyline your character will follow. Although, it's important to note that all these storylines will tie into the main plot.

If you choose a superhuman hero to start, you'll be hooked up with Superman and be immediately thrust into things. The difference will come in how the different characters handle and approach situations, so if you're hooked up with Superman your tasks might be different than say if you were hooked up with Batman as a tech hero.

For the full report, go here.
