Champions Online News - Combat Interview
Posted by Jon Wood on Jan 30, 2009 | 39 comments in our forums
MMORPG.com's Jon Wood recently caught up with Champions Online Lead Designer Bill Roper to talk about the combat system in Cryptic's upcoming super-hero game.
MMORPG.com:
Can you give us a quick overview of how combat works in Champions Online?
Bill Roper:
Combat is designed to be very action-oriented while maintaining a tactical edge. Players can use a run-and-gun style to not only gain the best positioning in a fight, but also avoid certain kinds of powerful attacks from villains. Certain powers drain endurance while others build it back, and every power set has a special endurance-building mechanic that can be combined with other sets to allow for unique character builds and combat styles.
