CO never really tried to use the Trinity system till this new Archetype system with F2P. One dungeon in CO requires a healer. 95% of the people in CO are still spec'd as dps/AOE.

And in DCUO, the story content is specifically designed for you to solo or group in DPS mode. You will die a few times but you never have to leave dps during the story content. In the alerts, raids, duos, raids and hard mode of the story instances, you use your alternate mode if the group requires it. But those parts of the game are supposed to be really hard to do without people performing their role. In theory, there should be no FOTM because every power will be able to solo all the solo content.

As far as who has the most DPS....DPS is handled by your weapons(fists/feet count as weapons...especially if you don't wash your feet) and combos mostly. So the player who is better at action mmos(vindictive) will probably parse the highest. But there will be tools for those who are not good at action mmos so they won't feel useless. Of course, you could pick really horrible powers and die from stupidity...but that's part of the game.

I assumed SOE would buy it, throw it in maintenance mode and stick it on their station pass. The technology would be great to use with Planetside Next or EQ Next.

Wait, they're doing what every department and grocery store does? How dare they be normal. Lets flame them.

Voice acting in games is one if the last things that finish cause of last minute tweaks. Also the voice actors will continue to be used in future updates.

Stop trying to fuel tolls

I'm still waiting for the Strawberry Shortcake MMO. Which would be better than a Jersey Shore MMO, Blizzard.

You do know there is a Planetside Next in development, right?

I hope its is F2P. No way I'm paying monthly for an online shooter.

That us a player, not black Adam. And those armors can be found in dc comics...

@CCon99

That's the trend of all the MMO's coming out. Pretty much every MMO is soloable these days. Hardcore games are dead or dying. Even EQ has very small death penalty, no corpse runs and on res it sends you to the nearest safe spot. Sorry dude.

As far as incentive...well, grouping gives you a rise in difficulty and I think it improves the quality of loot. I don't know if this is stats or just a better looking item. So to group just give you a bigger carrot and raid gives you a solid gold one.

Wasn't BAB the one responsible for most of the upgrades that allowed powers such dual pistols?

If this is true, I bet they find themselves at Cryptic Studios next week.

I really think the secret of Issue 20 is combat will change slightly to make it feel more action oriented at the lower levels. The upper levels are more exciting due to more abilities but he lower levels is where the game loses me now.
