What'd we think? Staff impressions of the Champions Online beta

Reader Comments (3)

Well, nice of you all to do this, and I honestly appriciate it's not just an ass kissing article.

But really, other the Shawn, (and Tateru's non-comital maybe) are you other planning on purchasin the gamne? Are playing the game in any capacity when it launches? Main game, 2nd sub?

I like that you all showed your impressions, but I'd like to know how impressed you were.

I will not be purchasing Champions Online mostly because it doesn't emphasize PvP enough and also due to the mostly-recycled gameplay and performance issues I experienced. The instanced concept is interesting, but doesn't really give me that "MMO" feel either.

To be fair though, I hadn't really intended to play it before closed beta anyway.

I'm in. Soon as the budget will stretch to the purchase. I really didn't have an opinion before I played it last week in the preview (closed beta). Now, I'm in.

I can't comment on the PvP - I'm not a competitive player, so I never PvP anyway.

I'm trying out another character in the current phase of the beta, and I'm personally having a blast. More fun, if anything, than the first time around.
