I have it. I didn't get a buddy key, because I bought it from a website where you download games direct to your computer.

The games graphics are awesome. Character creation is slightly limited at first, but you pick up new costume pieces as you play which have their own enhancements. The power choices are good, but they do need more different power and weapon choices. They'll probably release more as the months pass.

The game is a lot of fun. It's completely different from your usual MMO. The fighting is a lot faster, and there's only cooldown times on a couple of powers. Meltropolis and Gotham City are huge, and there's plenty to do. I've only solo'ed so far, so don't know how team play is. You can build tankers, controllers, healers and all that though, so I think there'd be a bit of tactical play involved in teaming.

Last Match: Paul kicked ass, and his team won. Nice one old chap.

I played City of Heroes for over five years, and the gameplay in DC Universe Online is so different to it. CoH has been around for years so obviously has loads more content, but I'd say DCUO has around the same level or content as CoH did when it was first released.

Champions Online... *pukes* I wasted over £40 on that game, by buying it when it was released, then paying for a month subscription. I played about two days of it, before uninstalling it and going back to CoH.

I dont think it's even worth the free to play unless they fixed the solo aspect of it. After I think it was lvl 5 you cant solo worth a ****.

They aren't combined, but someone from Europe could play on the US servers if they wanted, and vice versa.

I activated my account, started the launcher, and at first it was downloading the patches for the US server. I noticed a few minutes later, and changed it to EU servers.
