Champions Online - Free to Play

[Balance]

so what're the power restrictions like on the free to play version?   After the types of characters I got used to making on there, the thought of any power restrictions sounds horrible to me.

They have archetypes to choose from, which basically means you choose a type and then all your powers are laid out automatically. You can choose which ones you want to rank up and maybe get to choose between two a time or two, but that's about it. Basically it's a bit more like traditional MMOs now in the regard.

I just hit level 20. I recommend teleport as your travel power. It's a lot quicker and can get you out of sticky situations. Only downside is you have to reactivate it every couple of seconds, but that's not too bad compared to the insanely long charge up time of going full speed with flight.

Not sure if you guys dropped this yet but i started messing around ingame. It's actually pretty fun.

I'm still playing. I've got a good bit of free time the next two weeks, so I'm sure I'll be on it.

Diados is also playing this. We could form a Supergroup, but we need five of us online at the same time. At the moment we have four.

[Ragnarok]

Wow I need to do some serious leveling.

[Tbone]

Revalis is playing now as well.

Trueshot@Revalis I believe.

I'm now level 25 and was able to create my nemesis. She is called The Fallen Lover, and her goal is to seduce Tbone with her skimpy outfit...lol. I got to do a mission where she shows up, and now her minions will randomly spawn on me during battle. Pretty cool.

lol I cant wait till i can make mine. Tbone have you tried the pvp yet?

Yeah. It was a little strange b/c it automatically put everyone at level 30.

I just dled it! Gonna find some time between classes to get started today

[Revalis]

Yeah, I had hoped to pad my '/Played time' at work today, but the 3gb download keeps stalling on me.    It's at around 80% right now, though, so maybe if I hold off on taking my lunch for a few hours, I'll actually get in before the day is over.

Ok! So i was bored >_>

Yeah, I'm pretty sure our FA Jedi outfit is going to be Assassins Creed inspired.

I reinstalled it last night and had a little fun, but the power restrictions on free to play combined with the inability to message anyone who's not already in the friends list sucked.   So...  reactivating my old account for now.

Everyone let me know when you get to 20 hours of playtime. We need four more with that much time put in to start the guild. Looks like we've got almost 10 people playing at the moment, so it could be beneficial. I know at the least we get an extra costume slot.
