DC Universe Online Episode 22 introduces new Superman-themed content

February 12, 2016 Comments





Episode 22 is on the way for Daybreak’s superhero MMO DC Universe Online.
Creative Director SJ “NerdOfPrey” Mueller explains that the episode will include a four-player operation called The Phantom Zone and a one-player challenge called The Science Spire. Both revolve around Superman’s entourage and enemies.
“Since we’re moving into month two of this cycle, you’ll be able to earn the Helmet, Hands, Feet, Shoulder, and Face items, allowing you to finish off the “Electrostatic” set and the “Quickstryke” set. That means new style feats too, and a title for collecting the Elite set. Also available as collection rewards are some Kryptonian soldier styles, and to match those, a new Headguard of Omnipotence.”
Don’t like reading but do have 30 minutes to watch a video? Daybreak has done a video reveal as well; it’s included below.

DC Universe Online deploys new Superman-centric update
March 3, 2016 4 Comments





You know who Superman is. He’s kind of a big deal in the DC Universe, which means he’s also a big deal in DC Universe Online. Unfortunately, that means that there are things even he can’t handle on his own, and that’s where the players intersect with him in the latest DCUO update.



There’s a problem with the Phantom Zone, which means four players will need to go into the Phantom Zone to see what’s happening, while solo players will need to storm Lex Luthor’s Science Spire to chase down a criminal from within the Phantom Zone who escaped.


Superman, meanwhile, is investigating some other threat off-world. It’s probably for the best he didn’t just ask players to fly his dog around.



In addition to the two new bits of content, players who use the Light powerset will find that their trees have been rebalanced and their abilities altered as part of the ongoing powerset refinement and improvement. The Light Weight and Chain Whip powers specifically have swapped places, allowing players more options to build both ranged and melee damage within the same overall build. Check out the full GU57 patch notes for all of the changes, or just log in and start cleaning up Kal-El’s big lingering mess. Though the servers were having issues yesterday, they should be back up now.Read more

DC Universe Online announces a tournament for Batman vs. Superman

March 16, 2016 6 Comments



There’s not much time left before the latest DC Comics movie makes the old geek argument of “who would win in a fight, Batman or Superman” into the plot of a two-hour film.
DC Universe Online isn’t about to answer that question before the film releases, but it is asking players to choose their allegiances in a new Batman vs. Superman-themed arena tournament.



There’s also a whole video just below to show off some of the prizes available to players who take a side.

Also note that you are disqualified if you mention you’re on “Team Stark.” Different movie with superheroes fighting each other.




If you’re looking to hone your skills before you go fighting on the behalf of DC’s two headliner heroes, the servers are currently down for maintenance to apply update 58 to the live servers.



That includes all of the BvS stuff along with the St. Patrick’s Day event along with mechanical updates. Downtime started at 9:00 a.m. EDT and may last for up to 8 hours, so you’ll probably need to get your practice in this evening.

DC Universe Online : Batman vs Superman PvP Event Announced

Posted Mar 16, 2016



Ready to take on DC Universe Online's newest PvP challenge? You can do so starting March 19th.
Called Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, players can take part in a 4v4 double-bracket tournament. Players need to create a team on the US server and be ready to rumble on March 19th from 9:00 am Pacific / 12:00 pm Eastern.
Teams will be made up of 4 players. To sign up, each 4-player team should identify a team captain and choose a team name (that follows community standards). The team captain should then sign up as a team at the appropriate link below (after you choose if you will support Batman or Superman). Include each character name participating in your team's description.
Teams from each side will outfit their characters' styles and colors in homage to their chosen hero. We suggest teams in the Batman bracket wear variations of black and gray, while players in the Superman bracket wear some form of red and blue. The rest is up to you - be creative and make your chosen hero proud!
Read the full details on the DC Universe Online site.
Thanks, BT!

DC Universe Online preps GU59, new looting features


March 28, 2016 29 Comments


[YT]zjHE4vRVFLM[/YT]
If you dropped by DC Universe Online’s PC test server over the weekend, you were greeted with Game Update 59 for testing, whether or not you’re a paid subber. The update focuses on a major expansion to the way you’ll snag loot from On Duty content. Says Daybreak,
“We have extended our Loot Choice UI to the earlier tiers of DCUO! Now all solos, duos, alerts and raids available in the On Duty menu have this feature added. This gives players the opportunity to choose what loot they receive from bosses. Upon defeating a boss, the player will be presented with a new UI that allows them to choose from a list of available loot. After the main choice has been made, the UI will then display all items received from the KO.”
The update will also include improvements to the tutorial, bug fixes for operations and missions, and updates to movement and sorcery powers.

DC Universe Online deploys more story content and a new patch


April 7, 2016 4 Comments





You can start exploring Episode 23 of DC Universe Online right now if you’re subscribed to the game. Right this moment. If you’re at work, your boss legally has to permit you to do this unless said boss doesn’t want to let you! It features a new 8-person raid pitting players against General Zod and various other villains that the developers have declined to reveal for spoiler purposes, along with a new duo that builds players up to a confrontation with the vile Darkseid.




Not a subscriber and unwilling to become one? That’s all right; you’ll be able to pick up the newest episode from the game’s marketplace on April 13th, and you can enjoy the quality of life improvements in the most recent patch free of charge. That includes more loot selection options, improved tutorials, and a new Survival battle in the Fortress of Solitude with some Kryptonian clothing up as rewards. It doesn’t feature as many story developments as the aforementioned episode, but then, what would?

Anyone remember how to turn off that info box in the bottom left of the screen?
 
has anyone started a Hype League yet?

or maybe a post where we can all list our usernames to play each other?
 
lol and that was sorta the problem back then after the beta. I was one of the first during the beta but whenI wasinthe beta I got picked buy a league with in it. and they were really cool people and other had the same issue and there was also the issue of if we start one that person would be be the leader and at the time those of us on the hype didn't want that responsibility. the weird thing was I did become interm head of the league I was in for DCUO and we got so big we had two team for heroes and villain. then after the beta was over some went to the console side and other took a break and it got messed up on my end from there.

then marvel heroes came and I almost always have to be in the beta for new games since I was a game tester job was and join things like on my own if I'm not working on that work wise. I stayed with dcuo for 2 years and went to that . and there other games and works with real life got in the way so much . I still have hard time coming back. even though the leader of the league from back then who's my face book buddy kept asking me to come back.


if you ya'll get a super hero hype league going. awesome .

all you have to due is be fun leader . it's a game not work or a chore . if some people can't make the planned times to play as team together it's fine real life get in the way often.

just enjoy your time together.
