Besides for the 2-3 random crashes I have had throughout playing for over 6 hours today, this game doesn't have a lot of trouble with any annoying/major bugs.
I do not think that this game will succeed as a 50$ box price [1 month free] & 15$ / month subscription game with microtransactions [cosmetic only supposedly]. This game -may- be worth 5$ / month, or perhaps just worth the price of the box. 15$ / month... it just does not seem worth it, but that is my opinion.
There are also some other peeves I have with this game. The PvP servers are pretty sad. It is mainly a bunch of level 20's going in to the other side [hero/villian]'s newbie area and killing every level 5 they see. It is quite sad, as there is no penalty/balance system whatsoever.
The guard system is psuedo-useless. It is only useful during most situations in PvP, or when a monster/boss uses its skill on you. Otherwise, if you are getting pummeled by 5+ mobs, as they love to do all the time, guard won't help - it'll just delay your death. This is because mobs don't attack-pause-attack-pause, or anything along those lines. They just keep attacking constantly, except when one of them does it's uber skill that depletes half your HP if you don't guard.
Then there's the problem with soloing... it is difficult after level 5, and each level/mission it just gets harder and harder... in level 7-9 missions, if you try to solo, then you will die several times before completing one of the sections of that mission.
Luckily, dieing appears to have no penalty, and it respawns you in a safe zone near where you died.
The customization is also heavily beat out by Champions Online.
The chat system, as has been mentioned on the forum, is horrible. The PC version of this game greatly feels like it was designed for the console and not migrated over to the PC very well. The community doesn't appear to be very big - but this is closed beta, and on top of that, super hero MMO's never appear to get that popular.
On the bright side, the action in this game feels as real as you can get, the voice acting is fantastic [most of it is done by the 'original' voices of those characters for DC], and the game, as a whole, is far better then any other MMO Super Hero game out there. All the weapons and such seem to be balanced quite well, at least for the most part. I think I heard some complaints on the forums about healers though... not sure about that.
Oh, and currently the level cap is 20. I think it is going to be in 30 in release.
Overall, this is a fantastic game, and unless they never bother taking care of a few flaws in their game, then I would vouch for this game. Definitely worth a try, unless you hate comic books and super heroes / villians.
P.S. I am trying to post this first impression on the General Discussion official DCUO forums, but don't see any reply/new topic buttons anywhere, can anyone help out if they know possibly what's going on? Thanks. I am logged in [and can see the log out choice on the forums], and I have successfully set my forum user handle. I am trying to post this first impression on these forums
