Just play City of Heroes. It’s still running in private servers, and Homecoming is even doing active development on new powers and questlines.
Not only is it still running on private servers, those private servers have the blessing of the original devs. If I’m remembering correctly, they even provided the admins some dev tools and code
Plus, there is just zero chance any new game could possibly come out of the gate with more features and hours of gameplay than CoH. Physically impossible.
I would be far more open to mo they subscriptions if I didnt have to pay for the game upfront.
I would probably play wow and pay monthly if i didnt have to pay for the game and all the expansions as well as the subscription.
Just too much money imo for what I would get out of the experience
Not saying it’s entirely cool, but wow base game purchase usually includes all expansions except the latest nowadays and that rolls (you get newer ones as more expansions are released) if you had an account historically.
Oh that’s good to know. I wasn’t aware of that
…you know what, I think I’ll go play City of Heroes again.
I play on Homecoming. I played the original and it is the only MMO at the time I had high level characters. It was just a blast. I recreated my main in Homecoming. Dark masiama/ psych healer. I was never without a group. I just hovered behind the tank and kept them toped up and buffed. I also played Champions and even have a lifetime membership but it does not match City of Heroes. The only thing I would like is for Homecoming to add some sort of group voice chat.
I like no voice chat, but I have had absolutely horrible times with voice chats.
My main character was a scrapper martial artist. I just mostly remember I managed to make her covered with clothes from head to toe and shrouded in shadows. “What was that blur of smoke?” one might ask. “It’s me! Here to punch!” nyoom nyoom was my living. And punching.
A ship sounds a lot less exciting than a city.
*Unless it’s a murder-mystery, but then Train > Ship
Ok but when we gonna get a new Ultima Online?
For real, now THAT would be something I’d get behind.
Especially if someone gets to assassinate Lord British again.
Did their parents drop them on their heads as kids? Because there has to be something seriously wrong with them if they think that’s the way to go.
A 60 dollar buy is a VERY hard sell. And a 15 dollar subscription is a completely no-go. Or rather, ANY subscription.
Whoever came up with that is seriously detached from any form of reality.
CoH was a flawed, but awesome MMO in many ways. I’d love to see it done right, but I think they are out of their mind if this think this will succeed.
I wish the Marvel MMO was available on private servers. Played that shit for thousands of hours before it just disappeared
