City of Heros vs Villains is a great game but it is not Warcraft

If your looking for a game with style and makes you think. City of Heros is right for you. The game is rich with story lines and plots. Almost every group has a back ground story. The graphics are so alsome my video card cannot handle them I have to play on the lowest graphics setting but I still have a cool time playing. A 3d vid card could be used on this game to alsome effect but the regualar Nvidia ones work also on minimum setting. They have add lots of content for the game. The best is yet to come...

Great buy for in game extras

Buy ordering this now (yes, the free time for beta is over) you can still use it to upgrade your account! just enter the code key using the "upgrade" button under CoH/CoV section of your playNC account, and you will have acess to 1 or 2 of 4 helmets that were available as a preorder item.

let me explain when I say "1 or 2 of 4 helmets" :

there were 4 preorder helmets but you only got one per purchase, each store location that sold the product gave out a different one, please see the pictures more more detail.

the helmets come up under the helmet tab labeled as "special helmets"

happy gaming!

NCSoft's latest financial results say it all.

NCSoft recently published their financial report for the first quarter of 2006. Revenue for City of Heroes/Villains is down 58% in the last three month period. Keep in mind that many people sign up for 6 or 12 months at a time so this only reflects the people who's accounts have expired in that time. Also keep in mind that this is a 58% decline after including any new players who signed up during that period.

They have so thoroughly ruined the game that most of the people who still have accounts are not playing them (choosing just to let them expire rather than play). They are offering incentives just to try and get people to log on once a week! (Check out the City of Heroes web site for more info).

While other online games (like World of Warcraft) are growing through word of mouth, City of Heroes/Villains is hemorrhaging users en mass. The reason is simple, in order to slow leveling in the game they have made the game a tedious bore to play. You no long feel like a super hero/villain.

Now you could trust the people giving this game a positive review keeping in mind they have a vested interest in getting people into the game to play with, or you could trust the nearly 60% of the players who quit the game in the last 3 months. You have only to go to their own site to see the incentives they are offering just to get people to log on. Fun games don't have to offer incentives to get people to play, people WANT to play.

Avoid this one like the plague folks.

The in game item (helmet) that you recieve for the preorder is different than the one that comes with the Collectors edition (arachnos logo)

Don't Bother.

This pre-order is NOT worth it. There are only a few beta slots left. You will NOT get in more than two days before release. Just buy the game and play the day it opens. If you want the special item, buy the collector's DVD edition.
