Developed on both PC and PlayStation 3, DC Universe Online offers a more immediate console game requires that the usual action bar extension agreeing to perfection on keyboards. While it is always possible to create from scratch a hero or villain on your own, both in terms of design and in terms of his super-powers and his way of moving at high speed (so as acrobatic Spidey, Superman way flight, or running on walls like Flash ...), the commands of the game itself will be simplified to the extreme. The action bar contains four power offensive and four defensive. To make the title even more accessible, developers have wanted to become each character in turn tank, spellcasters or caregiver, according to the needs of the moment and through the selection of powers. Because if the action is pervasive and that physics has an important role in the gameplay (you can freeze the enemy then send the ice blocks so obtained were crashing on the walls), DC Universe Online is still a Game with its massively multiplayer leveling and its challenges in the form of quests by the authors of DC Comics.
During our test play, we could create a nasty and play with npc (Non-player character) known. Fight side by side with the Joker, the Penguin, or Lex Luthor has something magical. We were also able to try the pvp (Player versus player). With its fast gameplay to handle and the low number of available powers, fighting among the players are good for travel. The skills of the player will be at the heart of the game and will prevail over the intense levels. The version tested was on PS3, but the servers of the Sony console and PC versions were the same. At the moment we do not know if this will always be the case when the release of the game for obvious reasons of equity. As far as raids, know that the formation of a group of two or three players will be the bare minimum to address the small dungeon. Obviously, greater challenges will require an increased number of participants. We look forward to discover what elements will be implemented to take advantage of opportunities for confrontation between two factions "of the league of justice" and "Legion of the Damned." Will it be possible to see the heroes and villains get in the face of huge battles in scripted? Or will it be content with usually five against five established by World of Warcraft ...
Still in the pre-alpha, DC Universe Online is graphically pleasing if somewhat empty to our taste. To be quite honest with you, the bias of using a game that takes advantage of physics is likely to restrict the game design rather crude. Yet no information about the economic model of what could become the first MMO for the PS3. Anyway, this is a title we will keep history in order to keep you informed as they should .
