City of Villians

Its new and "fresh" compared to CoH. Some of the nitpicks of CoH were changed in CoV (mainly how long you wait to get a contact's cell number) among other things so it feels better overall.

Well I have several characters going and I have to say I'm loving this game. CoV handles team gameplay better than in CoH and much better than WoW.

My hang-up with MMORPGs so far has been teaming up with other people. WoW does this decently but it is not for the casual player. WoW dungeons can last HOURS opposed to CoV dungeons that last less than one hour on average, at least in the beginning (my highest character is a lvl 9 mastermind right now).

This is why I think I eventually abandoned WoW. I could get my character up to lvl 30 in that game going basically solo, but once I was forced to try and find team members and wait in queues, the game lost its fun factor.

CoV is great in that its structured so that the more in a team the merrier. I get invites to team on a constant basis and sharing missions is automated. Its just better streamlined.

Now I just need to upgrade my PC. Even on lower graphical settings I start to chug when the action starts getting crazy.

[Jonbo298]

Yeah, CoV is more graphic heavy then CoH.

Dont accept all blind invites if your soloing Some are very bad teams.

CoV has a good balance of teaming and soling. You can solo the entire way (though boring due to newspapers repetition) or team all the time and do better.

Whats your global handle/name by the way?

[Professor S]

I believe my global handle is Dr. Argus Jung. He was my first character. I believe he's a lvl 5 mental/psche controller right now.

I love scrambling brains. I pretend I'm Michael Ironside in Scanners
