Kind of. You can go through on a PVE server, and do your missions and never have to play against another person. But you still have to pay the monthly fee.

I am MiLo Duck. My PS3 tag is MiLo Duck. I'm not sure how to team up with folk, but I got a few different dudes on different servers. Hero and Villain, mostly PVP.

How are the PVP servers? Are there tons of guys camping around preying on lower levels constantly?

Also, a low level can at least annoy a high level and possibly get away or gang up on him/her. Its not as bad as WoW in that regards IMO I'm still pretty puny with all my toons,but have fun mixing it up when PVP happens.

I may get this tomorrow.
If so, I will be petitioning everyone to join me in attacking Bizarro at the earliest point. That son of a bitch was impossible to take out in the beta.

That's not much of an excuse for ripping people off. DC Universe cost what, $50 million wasn't it? Plenty of games cost a lot to develop and manage to make many with the initial £40 retail cost. Hell, GTA 4 cost $100 million to develop and GTA 5 cost $80 million so development costs shouldn't be an issue. I can understand smaller franchise MMORPG's with high-development costs to charge a subscription fee to make money since there's no guarantee they'll make much. For DC though which is a huge franchise and pretty much guaranteed to make money, it just seems like greed from the developers. it'll cost around £120 plus the £40 game cost to buy it. That's way too much, I very rarely spend that on all the games I play a year anyway plus, there's no guarantee that people will get their moneys worth with the possibility of the game getting boring for a while. I've never paid a subscription fee but I'm guessing they can't be easy to cancel if you stop playing the game for whatever reason?You just go to the games website, log into your account and cancel it. Actually pretty easy. With subscription fees, you need to understand where the money goes to. It's not a fee, just for the sake of it. The fee funds server maintenance, additional content and expansions, etc.

I've got a hero Ms. Deadeye on the killing joke server and another hero ONYX on the Blood (I think its called Blood Will Run) server. Those are the two I've really been playing with.

I was wondering if a player comes with a character that DC likes, I wonder if DC would use that character in their comic books?

Managing to beat Deathstroke without using an energy pack and without getting knocked out once just sums up how incredibly awesome this game can be.

The PS3 subscription fee puts me off. I find paying £40 for a game and then having to pay £10 a month just in order to play it to be nothing more than legalised robbery tbh. If other games like COD can have plenty of servers and provide a good online service for free then surely MMORPG's can as well. It sounds like a really fun game but, I just don't like been ripped off. I mean, if I buy it and get bored I'm stuck paying a subscription fee that I bet is a complete bitch to get out of/cancel. This. I'll just wait until I have more money, or the price drops. I like the new Marvel vs Capcom game, so I have that at least.

Anyone wanna give me a PS3... and the game... and a subscription? I'll totally pay you tuesday. There is no bigger DCU fan than me, but my PC sucks, I don't have and can't really afford a PS3, and it's all expensive.

I'm sure you will disagree with it, but here's the ZP review of the game to anyne that cares: (language warning) www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/2757-DC-Universe-OnlineAlso, it's been reported that DC Universe on the PS3 can't be traded in, as the key for the game is put into the system, ala most PC games. I would suggest giving out some kind of demo disc, like they have for WoW, where you get a week trial for 1.99 or whatever.
