Let's Play DC Universe Online - Part 154 - Metropolis City Hall (Instance)

[Hippiefreek09]

Also, I agree on the abilities not working. You even summoned your pet once in this video and while the laughing played, he didnt appear. So many things they need to fix, its a great game.... But yeah, so much...,bad... all kinds of fun. Basically everything you mention throughout time, and much more.

[sambonz]

@Hippiefreek09 thanks for your thoughts - i think a lot of it is ping / lag related in my case. the game definitely seems very sensitive to higher pings =)

[Hippiefreek09]

I wrote a whole big ol' comment that ended up being some 250 characters too much, but it seemed.... splotchy.. Like a bad paint job. Im not the best at staying to topic, sometimes. I wanted to say I havent had a problem yet on my 3 toons (firetank,gadgetrifle,&natureD­W), however annoying the whole thing may be. Especially the pulse.. things.  Use more damaging abilities, like the long charge AoE. There, Im pretty well within character range. Keep it up, and thanks for the videos.

[GStone0]

19:02 Overall, I didn't like it.

[GStone0]

20:15 That was my experience the first time I started playing. Things when bad after a couple days, so it's not limited to just the patch.

[sambonz]

@GStone0 yah. although it's definitely a lot better now than it used to be =)

[snake9718]

how do u go to metropolis

[sambonz]

@snake9718 go to any police station / club, and use the Teleporter to go to the Watchtower / Hall of Doom, then take a Teleporter from there to Metropolis.

[WarMachineGX]

Do u have to pay for dc universe

[sambonz]

@WarMachineGX yup! it's $14.99/month

[G4M3RV1DZ]

@WarMachineGX its free in october

[taitos44]

@WarMachineGX now it is free :D

[GrimSoultaker]

Yeah i with u on that one sambo it's all good not much lag any more

[sambonz]

@GrimSoultaker glad to hear it =)

[GrimSoultaker]

It did today but then it went crazy after school got out here then 20 minutes later the world shut down they fixed the u can't see some people but not the chat or mail. After the rush the just stop working

[sambonz]

@GrimSoultaker hrm - that's no good! i guess it's to be expected that there'll be some teething problems though.. i hope it sorts itself out soon!

[GrimSoultaker]

You do that sambo the sever meger sucks on the ps3 so much it's down u couldn't chat nore check ur mail and the lage it was a bad day for the ps3 owners

[sambonz]

@GrimSoultaker hrm - hopefully it's settle back to normal!

[GrimSoultaker]

It's so anoying i qait till i'm 23 to do it just to get tgrough it

[sambonz]

@GrimSoultaker it sure is! i'll be back at a later level to exact my revenge :D

[cyrixblack]

... Condemn then vengeance causes polymorph so they turn into a helpless dog and you get healed for every attack you do to them!

Sorry for split post, silly YouTube.

I hope the info helps dude ;)

[sambonz]

@cyrixblack thanks for the great tips! damn why didn't i think of going for the hit combo's on those bugged mobs ;p

[cyrixblack]

Never laughed so much in my life watching that, they sure are annoying to fight. Here's two tips mate:

1. The guys glitched in the wall, keep shooting them for the 25x 50x 100x hit combo feat, easy feat!

2. Your soul storm attack is always being interrupted, why not use it at the start as the first attack so you don't have to worry about being interrupted.

3. At the start of the vid a man hunter disappeared off and you had no idea why, you hit him with condemn then vengeance, condemn gives t

[sambonz]

@jimmyschantel yah they're tough alright, especially the Wags argh!

[sambonz]

@jimmyschantel thanks! glad to be back too =) ooh thanks for the tip - i'll pay him a visit =)

[Mrxboxmatty]

Oh Plus Most people want to do PVP no offence ya know fighting each other while most Lets Players do PVE Player vs Enviroment

[sambonz]

@Mrxboxmatty i'm not sure its 'most' people - i'd say there's at least a healthy 50/50 split, and that if anything there are more PVE players all told =)

[Jai452]

hey dfinity don't be getting drunk on the soda's you've got a world to save not like that laze handcock

[sambonz]

@Jai452 lol *hic :D

[Jai452]

@sambonz BOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

[ValgeirBragi]

Today was my first day on the new megaservers!

[sambonz]

@ValgeirBragi how did you find it? there have definitely been a bunch more players running around when i'm on, that's for sure =)

[TheDave25s]

Oh also the darkness falls emblem is a wolf head howling in the silhouette of the moon

[JohnABall]

@TheDave25s Which is obviously the best emblem ever. It's awesome.

[sambonz]

@TheDave25s howl at the moon! nice =)

[TheDave25s]

@sambonz i do agree you should try and set up your healing loadout and try to run the instances as healing. Mind you your dps will be lower but your heals.willbe much more effective.

[sambonz]

@TheDave25s yah i need to sort out my roles - i haven't paid them any attention on this toon really :S

[poopikins]

I'm assuming if you play as a villain, you'll get to fight along side Sinestro?

[TheHorndOne]

@poopikins Yes, you do. From what I've seen of the vids on YouTube, if you're on the Villains' side, you help Sinestro in fighting the GLC. Most of the interlocking/crossover missions are designed to be as generic to either side, so that the POV programming saves not only space but costs as well. Otherwise, there would be separate discs or dowwnloads for either side.

[ZephyrnixLive]

@poop

You might not get this particular quest if your a villain.

[Mrxboxmatty]

I'd like to see Superman needing your help with a gotham villian who came to metropolis like Joker and Batman need help against Bizzaro or Lex Luthor

[sambonz]

@Mrxboxmatty hrm come to think of it - that's a really good point! they don't tend to step outside of their a-typical pairings much do they?

[Mrxboxmatty]

@sambonz Yeah and how come most of the updates were batman villians plus are you going to do the 2 face update please do cause it looks AWESOME

[sambonz]

@Mrxboxmatty i'll definitely be taking a look at the two-face content yup =)

[9221Almostfamous]

Great video ur get them next time :)

[sambonz]

@9221Almostfamous hehe so frustrating! ;p and thanks =)

[monx444]

to wat i was saying before that i forgot about for the thing i suggested about

wat u should do for lay out keep all ur heals in the first couple spots but make sure to atleast have 2 attack/dot spells i use it on instances higher and at my lvl it may not be ur nature but u will most likley be able to down sinestro

[monx444]

sambo really should switch to healing role for instance is helps so much

[sambonz]

@monx444 yah i must admit i haven't paid it much attention this time around. thanks for the reminder =)

[TheHorndOne]

FIRST!

Yes, it's frustrating. Wait until you get (once again) up to Lvl 30 to knock out the Sinestro Corps instance before you go back again.

Can you do that promised shout out next episode? If this helps, it's "The Horn'd One", with Horn'd pronounced as it's spelled.

As always, a great video & hope to see the new Watchtower layout in the next show.

[sambonz]

@TheHorndOne thank you! and yup your shoutout has already been recorded (takes a while to appear due to filming ahead of time) =)

[mikel2fine]

@sambonz awesome episode :)

i could tell how frustrating the sinestro mission was hehehe. we'll get em nest time. keep it up sam

[sambonz]

@mikel2fine hehe it sure was! i seem to have much less patience these days for frustrating encounters :S

[MultiAwesome123]

@sambonz Just so you know there are 2 servers on EU PC and 2 servers on EU PS3 as well.

[sambonz]

@MultiAwesome123 you mean 1x PvE and 1x PVP? or 2 of each? (there's only the one of each in the US region)

[MultiAwesome123]

@sambonz Also I think you should wait a bit. You are level 20 and facing a level 22 instance. Try doing the lower level missions first.

[sambonz]

@MultiAwesome123 yah i agree! although i'm finding it difficult (again) seeking out quests at or lower than my level - it's like this stage in a character's life experiences a dearth of content. it happened to me on Seraphis as well - of course the devs likely rely on the fact that you'll be running alerts to pad out the leveling (which of course has been impossible due to low server populations) :S

[MultiAwesome123]

@sambonz Also, glad you like my gift. If you need any more cola's, just let me know. But with your 15k cash I think you have enough money to get your own lol. I spent all my money on getting the endgame gear and now with those cola's I only have like 300 cash left :(

[sambonz]

@MultiAwesome123 oh goodness me no! i've got more than enough to keep me going, and thank you very much for your generosity. they'll absolutely come in handy =)

[TheHorndOne]

@sambonz Thanks again! :D

[sambonz]

@TheHorndOne cheers! sorry for being all snively and cold-ridden :S

[TheHorndOne]

@sambonz It's fine. Just take care of yourself & knock that cold out!

[sambonz]

@TheHorndOne thanks! it's finally disappearing (yay!) =)
