  • when the game goes f2p?

  • This game sucks! I played it, and it's really bad. So far nothing beats City of Heroes. Still waiting on DC's MMO tho

  • doubtful, seeing as how bad Champions online sucks with Bill Roper. He's a fag

  • Love how bill ropper walks about everything but what they ask him lol and Nem is25 for all who ask

  • when your randomly running around will u see other people?

  • Does anyone know if your nemisis is built into endgame or will you only see him through the chain quests he mentions?

  • lol @ release date spring 2009, well it's 5 days from launching now at least >.>

  • Well if we're lucky it will be downloadable. I'm not worried about memory cause i got the elite. But i'm sure most people aren't worried about memory

  • Lets make this clear to all people who will be playing this on the 360. Microsoft will NOT be paying for YOU to play an MMO, YOU will pay to keep the ACCOUNT open and active, you will be able to play this with the xbox live silver because you wont be using microsoft servers, you will be using CRYPTIC servers but will be connecting via XBOX, please stop thinking that Microsoft will pay for you because your already paying for Gold, Microsoft are not making the game, Cryptic and Atari are.

  • WTF!? ARE YOU serious no one will buy it on 360 then,

  • @callfy15 dude get ur shet right this game aint coming out for xbox360 in the first place u dumbass

  • @88yousif - Your kidding me right? Callfy15 posted that up when Cryptic were going to make it for the 360, look at the time he posted it you idiot.

  • @PixelMoose oh my bad haha but ay they just announced that 360 wont have an mmo game because it wasnt built to hold massive online players ye i know suks thats y im gettin a ps3

  • i think this this game will be free for xbox live gold members

    since we are already paying

    microsoft will cover the fee

  • spring 2009 LOL bs

  • they should allow you to be a villan too

  • You can just pretend your a villian i guess. :p

  • @derrokobama they wont because the bosses are all villains

  • i'm looking forward to this on the 360..

  • personally dc online looks crap compared to this, dc is too uniform there is only 6 character models, a few power sets.

  • i disagree because this game is still going to require no real skill to play. Its press X attack in X pattern till all moves are on cooldown. Tactics will devolve into chains of moves that use against AI that cant really think on level and will just stand there and take it. DC universe on other hand actually have to Aim, think and combat other players, has villians and heros, pvp where both sides have to combat each other...sorry but i feel dc>champions in terms of skill required.

  • but i dont have skills in mmo's, but i can play action games good, so the fact it aims for me is good for me and it doesn't have a cooldown system but an energy system. but it is your choice im just not ahuge aimer or mmoer

  • Cryptic will be making a very good move from a marketing point of view if they have no or very small fees, becuase they will sell more copies the lower the fee is, so if the fee is £5 rather than £15 they could sell 3 times the ammount of copies.

  • MMO prices are always going ot be 15 bucks.

    Sure you miss out on the maplestory crowd, but does that really hurt games like wow or everquest? Not really...

  • My brother plays some free mmos that require 5 bucks a month for the full version.

  • YEAH ITS CALLED RUNESCAPE

  • I know, and also club penguin (this is my 9 year old brother, mind you), pirates of the carribean online, and a whole bunch of others. And they all suck. Including runescape.

  • lol why would microsoft pay for you ? it has nothing to do with them and they would lose a shit load of money doing that for you. Final Fantasy XI is the same they dont pay for you. How ever you dont need gold to play it.

  • yeah, microsoft is really going to pay cryptic $180 a year for every person playing this on 360.

  • in other words the money made buy xbox360 gold membership cards are shared with cryptek....!..........which i belive is how itds gona work for 360 i hope..:P

  • No there will be a monthly fee for the 360 as well. There are many games on the 360 with monthly fees already.

  • like wut??? i havent seen nor played any

  • The final fantasy online games for consoles have monthly fees.

  • it wont be like that.... you'll hsve to pay gold membership and the monthly fee aswell. there are already a couple MMO's like that.

  • Yeah I think Champions will be Cryptics only game when it comes out so theyl want some profit to develop thier other projects. Anywho cant wait for this game!. : D

  • if it has monthly fees its probably going to be unpopular i mean want wow but im not paying 20 frikin dollars monthly thats pretty stupid and by now games like woow that have been out for this long dont need to keep having monthly subscriptions think about how much money they while guild wars is very popular and u dont need to pay for its able to take of that itself

  • It will have monthly fees probably $15 a month which isnt too bad as opposed to wow. I dont think the fee will make it unpopular especially with that price i'm down to pay that myself. If a game has fees that only means they can make the game better with stable servers to play on and thats why wows so succesfull because thier able to maintain servers and release expansions etc.

  • and u now wat ur right but if ur wow by now u currently dont need a suscribstion for a while in my opinion but i do agree with u companies do need fees but if ur guild war u dont need fees while i heard free realms had 3million people in its first 2 weeks

  • hmm yeah the only explanation I can think of for that is that the companies that make guild wars etc. have other games that may take care of them financially and might even have subscriptions fees for the other games. I mean I dont know much about guild wars but yeah maybe its a side project or something?

  • yeah chances are that(this is an example)mythic entertamint helps make guild wars to an offical project that they work on continusly

  • will this game have monthly fees?

  • Yep.

  • As far as i know the pc version will have monthly fees.

  • i hope its not like phatasy star universe (think thats what its called)where you have to pay I hope all you need is a xbox live subscription and your good.

  • 90% of all mmos make you pay and 95% of the time its worth it

  • i don't know about mmo's on consoles but mmo get patches and expansions over time more and more for more content,how would work for a mmo on a console like xbox 360,then you have the version with a hd but will that hd be big enough for all that plus the another games you play on it and how will communication work here,with mmo you have all kinds of chat channels sometimes i wonder how that works in this game and how will that work on the console version,haven't seen anything of that

  • thats why the 360 version is coming out next year so they can put all the content they can into a disk

    for the pc you can easily put patches out any time

  • lol you need to stop pulling shit out your ass XD you can update on both systems just as easily only reason for it coming later on consoles is because they need to code the console version.

  • Hmmm will u have to pay to play this game online ? :3

  • It's an MMO so naturally there is a monthly fee attached. Go to any retail site that sells the game and it'll tell you that.

  • not to be nerdy or anythin... but guild wars is an mmo with no monthly fee

  • Not at all, and I actually have heard of it. It's just the typical model of an MMO is a monthly fee. Guild Wars gets funds from routine expansion packs, and it's NCSoft so they've got a number of other games they get revenue from.

    Personally, I'm against monthly fees of any kind if the company can support themselves without it. *cough* Blizzard *cough*

    My reasoning is that you truly should get what you paid for and if they fail to patch for a long time. . . It's a matter of principle to me.

  • I mean, you do buy the game beforehand. And I do believe that downloaded content packs will be the wave of the future it's just we're not there until the major companies are rivaled.

    Anyhow, it's just that the makers, Cryptic, did say Champions Online would have a monthly fee attached for whatever reason. I guess it's just one of those things where if people are willing to support it (I.E. fund) then that's what it shall be.

  • Yes at least for pc because when you pre-order it you get a 30 day trial which means that there will be a subscription fee but no details on the Xbox 360 version yet so don't believe any details about that. Because Microsoft is keeping them from releasing any details about that version which also means it could still be coming out at the same time :0

  • hmmmm maybe its called "champions ONLINE" for a reason.

  • release date,sprign 09?.....hmm...its july....

  • It's been pushed back to September 1st

  • CANT W8 TILL SEPTEMBER 30th FOR XBOX!!!

  • If anyone has any information on whether or not there will be monthly payments for the Xbox 360 version please reply to this comment. Thank You.

  • While it hasn't been announced yet there is a response on the forums stating that like the other MMO's on the 360 plaform that only require a free silver account to play they don't see how this game would be any different. However, like any other well maintained MMO there will still be a required subscription fee to be paid to Cryptic Studios ($15 is usually the norm and just like PC users) in order to supply needed updates and patches.

  • wrong yoyu will need xbox live gold on both xbox 360 and PC so it actually would be fair

  • I'm sorry but you are incorrect. I am pulling my intel right from the CO website and Q&A forums. PC users won't require an xbox live subscription and xbox users will only require the free silver subscription in order to play.

  • reallly?????? are u serious? i won't need a xbox live subscription to play online with my friends?

  • A Dev stickied this from the official forums.

    There are currently two MMOs available for the 360, Final Fantasy XI and Phantasy Star Universe. Both of these games have monthly fees paid to their respective developers. Neither of these games however, require an XBOX Live Gold account to play. All you must do to play these games is create a Silver account, which is completely free.

  • You gotta check the official forums because they state otherwise

  • Jeshire i completely agree with u. and i cant wait to get this game. it looks amazing!

  • This is pretty much what the dream was for the CoX world, they wanted the powers to be choosable as in how thigns are with Champions. So pretty much this is the game they dreamed of in the first place, and now get to do

  • I bet the nemesis got pissed on what you did.

  • Half of the sounds are from CoH! I can't wait for this game! I've been waiting for a game that would replace CoH in my life and I think i've found it.

  • it might be another CoH, but maaaan i been waiting for soemthing to come on Xbox so i do not care, they could call it CIty of Heroes xbox. I am happy for this.

  • LIES more like fall 2009 T_T

  • ok, maybe Sept. 1st is technically Fall, at least it's not late fall hehe

  • can u have a captain maerica type shield.

  • prob not but u prob can get a shield

  • xbox360!

    I will not buy PC for games...ever. It just doesn't work well.

  • nice me too

  • i only play on PC, you know that the 360 version is limited to the updates that the PC version gets right?

  • Not Necessarily.

  • 360 ver of CO is 100% the same as CO for the pc same updates. pc and 360 players will be playing on the same severs woot woot

  • and...? 360 pushes better graphic details.

  • I would love to get the 360 version but my PC has less tendency to get the red ring of death

  • She has a nice body.

    CO looks great too.

  • comment to OblivionKnight457

  • pay to play? i regret ''buying'' it...

  • what do you mean? do you have it?

  • no i sorta bought it

  • Bills shoes rock :D

    Thier all flamey

  • what i dont get is how youre gunna be able to communicate on 360 i mean that could make it mic based but youd have to hear a whole lotta yelling and stuff. but on PC you can just type.

  • you dont have to pay when playing on the xbox......

  • This is incorrect information. Both platforms will require a subscription fee in order to fund updates, patches, and content. Xbox 360 users will have no advantages over PC users because then everyone would purchase the 360 version and the studio would lose money. Check the forums. It's easy to find the info.

  • "spring 2009"... yeah right!

  • The game looks alot better now, im currently in the beta...very fast paced and very fun, and the customisable options you have is mind blowing...the option to change the colour of your powers really is great.

  • im getting it on both pc and 360

  • whats the point you will have to pay both subscriptioin fees right?

  • cant wait for xbox version ive always had a soft spot for having minions

  • Uneducated :-D, every game has its weak points i.e. the environment set up, story line, background music and so on. All Im saying is this video clip looks SHIT, granted its my opinion but since this is youtube emotions get the best of me. It sounds like youre a fan of this upcoming game, its going to get a 6/10 by IGN. DC Online 8/10

  • You opinion is shit. See what I did there? I farted out a comment that was not asked for, kinda like what you did.

  • You make yourself seem very uneducated. I don't know who you are trying to impress with your rebel attitude but your aren't even using valid arguments.

  • they didnt make your nemisis becaquse they wanted you to choose and create and custumize your enemy and make him someone you wanna fight

  • you all know that while playing this crap you will be thinking of dc online, you know you will loool

  • I believe you can use your xbox live to play it you know ,you buy for certain # of months, I think you dont have to pay to play if you have months still on xbox live

  • will you have to pay to play if it is on xbox???

  • Probably. Thats what the final fantasy mmo did.

  • yep it's another paying mmorpg but hopefully it's worth it

  • Is it a pay to play game

  • Will there be a PvP aspect to the game?

  • i dont know why people complain about sub fees have you ever heard of a mmo that competes with how many updates bugs and fixes that world of warcraft do and is all because we pay for them to do this keeping the world fresh and new to us unlike free mmos just my problems is borrowing my sisters credit card :(

  • Um...we complain because we don't want to pay extra. We already have to pay for the actual game. If they want to update the game then use the money we used to buy the game and use the money from your other products to do so. And if that money isn't enough then heck I don't need the updates that bad.

    I'm so cheap xD

  • I wouldnt be upset about them pushing the release to Sept 1 2009 if it wasn't because the beta testers were complaining. THEY get to play the game!! I hope they release the open beta soon, because it's obvious cryptic isn't going to accept my closed beta application any time soon...

  • Morgan webb is so fucking hot..

  • nub

  • iss it comin on xbox 360?? send me a message

  • yes, it will be for 360, and pc

  • Not even june. More like September.

  • The concept for creation of the nemesis and minions part of the game reminds me of drawn to life on DS.

  • Morgan: "Release Date!?"

    Bill: "Spring 2009..."

    Lol that liar, it's comin out in summer now... july 14th...

  • Now its fucking September 1st

  • is their gona be a subscription fee? do you have to buy the game?

  • MMO's tend to have subscription fees

    And why the fuck wouldn't you have to buy the game to play it?

  • Ever heard of a free mmo?

  • Not a good one

  • You sir, have a good point.

  • the release date was pushed back

  • At least it's not yesrs like APB

  • she's hot!

  • hope pvp players wont have to kill monsters...btw i thought you could be a supervillain in this game and he kinda implied in this video that you have to be a superhero, if thats true fuck this game

  • You can be a villain.

  • ya i think you can only be a hero,but i heard they are gonna release a dark hero expansion. ( This is what i heard not sure if it is true)

  • thanks, alex said you can be a villain but either way at least itll be possible at one point, do you know anything about pvp btw? i looked up previews and stuff and theres like no info on this game and its coming out in july, thats weird

  • ya in one of the videos i watched a question was asked if you could run up and just kill someone and the guy said no you cant just kill another champion. He did say that there would be a pvp arena for players to battle in

  • o wow thats gay

  • ya but i guess they want to stay true to being a hero game. In another vid a guy asked about loot and they were saying something about a hero would not take soemthing from a KO person.

  • man that sucks....i think im going to play MO instead

  • whats MO?

  • mortal online, its basically oblivion with multiplayer lol...and i mean that literally with no exceptions other than you also have executions in MO

  • definitely going to try before I buy

  • never played it but i heard it was a great game

  • why're being such a angry monkey?

  • funny

  • As far as I know it seems that this wont be making it to the 360.I'm a 360 user and would LOVE to see this game come out on it.But alot of saying nothing about the 360 or saying the same stuff over and over. This leads me to believe that it isn't coming out on the 360.Maybe next gen in two years but I don't think cryptic and MS will come to an agreement.

  • In the part one video he said players are going to be able to play each other from the pc and xbox 360 at the same time.

  • The tester is playing this demo on a 360... Confirmed by Roper's answer at about 4:40.

  • he only said he was playing on a xbox 360 CONTROLLER, not the actual 360

  • ya man he never said he was playing on the 360, but to me it is a really good sign that he was using a 360 controller adds a little more hope if you know they figured out some controls for it

  • It's already been announced for the 360...

  • This information is extreamly outdated please goto official website for actual info on game.The BIZ is between MS and atari cryptic ic hoping that MS will give them the go ahead so please update your info.This was done in dec o8 it's now close to may 09 and release for pc only in mid july.Before posting please check your info is updated!!

  • So this is pretty much what the "City of..." games SHOULD have been. XD

    I wonder whats gonna happen to those games once this baby hits the shelves.

  • Hmmm... this looks really fun. i do have a pc, but I am going to get it on my 360 for the sake of my friends who might not have their own pc... and my comp doesnt wanna work for me anyway. This will be very interesting.

  • Here would be my question.

    "Do you ever plan on improving your customer service and the communication system between players and developers?"

  • do you actually fight or is it a click point MMO, even on a console lmao

  • It's a mix, so you have just powers and stuff, but you can block, dodge etc.

  • no... its completely unique

  • The shift from diablo to diablo 2 was cartoony as hell, regardless the retarded shithead bill roper who was responsible for that thinks diablo 3 isn't diablo enough? Well how's hellgate?

  • man i want it but i am not into that whole monthly fee stuff

  • So basically you dont like good games....

  • no, hes just not into paying monthly fee's.

    There's alot of people who dont find game's worth paying a monthly fee, they could either not have enough time to play for the time they are paying.

    Or he's someone that would rather pay a single cost for a game and play it whenever he's in the mood.

    Also just because a game has a monthly fee, doesn't mean its "good." There's alot of monthly fee games that outright suck.

  • Zack, aint that the truth!! there's alot of mmos that require monthly payment but arent worth it. ::cough::pso::ffo::cough::

  • Most games has monthly fee so they can keep the game running.

    I WON'T play any game that was a monthly fee, no matter how good it is, Pay once is ok tho :D.

    btw rewdbwoi, pso&psu is awesome

  • Yea, but good MMOs are worth committing to and paying monthly for, and it's actually cheaper. A lot of people think monthly fees are a rip-off, and yet every 1-3 months, they spend $50 on a new game they end up not liking, which adds up to a LOT more spent than paying a one-time retail price and $15 a month for a single game that has a lot of replay value and can be played for years. Of course, that's not everyone's cup of tea, but solely in terms of cost, monthly fee MMOs aren't a bad deal.

  • No basically he does not like paying a monthly fee thats what he just said. Someone could release a game where all you do is kick rocks and attempt to charge a montthly fee but that does not make it a good game

  • I was wondering if you can strafe during combat or is the gameplay pretty much just like marvel alliance? What I mean by that is does your character stand still when attacking or can you also move around while fighting?

  • You move around in combat, if you don't you get beat up. Its in one of the other videos for this game, i think its called "hands on demo"

  • I think this game could be the first good 360 MMO... or console MMO for that matter.

  • add me

  • the combat looks cool

  • is super speed and flying a power you can hav?

  • yeah, and more.

  • Yes flying and super speed can be picked at lvl 1, so u can start whizzing in flight or speeding across the lands.

  • cooooooooool can you fight other random heros?

  • Naah sorry mate, u cant just attack a hero out of the blue. But there is a arena which u can enter and after release there may be some Clan Vs Clan action and these even been a word of them bring Villains which then will bring open PvP if we lucky.

    Champs is a really good looking game has alot which DC doesnt.

    360 a bonus for most people who dnt have ps3 and cross servers make it a lot more fun.

    360 RULE!!

  • cool. just give me a guess on when you think this game will be released for the 360.

  • I dont see why it cant be same time people are saying after but Cryptic aint saying it any different or even same so id say same but no promises :) see ya in da game

    Black Tazer (lol my hero name 2)

  • 1 last question. is it like when you press a button the player does it. like dc universe or is it like you have to preset your attacks?

  • For 360, the controls are A B Y X is standard attacks (look like a weak power usually) and then when you pull LT u acess your main powers. So example for me as Tazer would be: A= Weak electric Punch B= Medium Attack X= Long range attack Y= Strong attack But then with LT its: LT A: A long beam of electricity LT B: A static shield maybe LT X: AoE Electricity spell (like causing the floor around to conduct electricity) LT Y: could be another type of electricity. Ok??
