    The game lacks enough challenge to make it enjoyable. It's one of the most mindless games I've ever tried playing. Games don't need to be difficult to be good, but you should feel some resemblance of impact when you play. This feels more like a collectable world where people focus on character customization, basically virtual barbie for DC fans.
    It's really not even worth downloading.

Sometimes missions are fun. RAIDS are a freaking blast, unless you get with alot of newbies who dont know the game much. But you cant play raids until you are high in CR(Combat Rating) ratings. But heres the downside. Several times since DCUO started, DCUO decided to change things. Everytime they did, my characters went from being mighty to start all over again. That sucks because you put alot of time, money, and wear out controllers playing this game. One time DCUO did this and many many people left and never came back.(2013) I almost left then myself. This game wants you to buy legendary membership. Because if you dont, you wont be able to get past CR95. So this is something newbies need to know. If you are not going to become legendary, heres what you will experience as I have. If you are a hero character, you should be able to reach level 30 almost without help. For Villians its harder. After you get to level 30, the on duty scenerios are also like that. The Villians seem to have more enemies and have a tougher time. Once you get to CR43, you are given the cat woman and penguin missions. They claim to be rated CR43 but once inside the enemies are CR53. Good luck. I have worn out many good controllers trying to beat these two missions. Right now I am trying to level up a character on my pc and I cannot beat either mission. Trouble is both are single player missions so you cannot get help. These missions wont give you anything to level you up either. They give you junk you cant use for a reward for fighting. They want you to buy membership so bad! If you somehow find a way to level 53, you have it made because then you can do old gotham and a couple other missions and rank up high enougfh to play raids, which give you alot of goodies. But its that area from level 43-53 thats a real pain in the control pad. They have a "broker" where you can buy things, but only if you are premium members. You become premium if you purchased something on DCUO. I have bought alot of things, but no legendary membership so Im still on the back burner. Anyways, in the Broker only legendary people can but things over 2000 dollars.. Everyone else is limited up to 2K. To make it bad, the legendary members make it even worse by selling their crap over 2000 each time. I wonder if DCUO provokes then to do this? This game can be fun at times, or it can aggrivate you so bad youll break your controller. DCUO started making things alot harder because some rich players made it to level 165 with their legendary memberships, wanted to go back and play the lower levels, and griped to DCUO it was too easy (DUH!!) so DCUO caters to them instead of the general public. ( a level 43 mission and the player who is CR165 thinks its too easy) From what I read, DCUO is about to shaft themselves again making it to where the CR (Combat Rating) doesnt matter anymore. Once again ,they are going to strip away high levels of their power and make them start over. Not me. 3rd times the charm. You do this DCUO and you lost another player… Expand

    You are not a “hero”, just a human modified, and need to choose a "real hero" mentor, limited by lame superpowers of fire, ice or magic, that leaves you as a stupid sidekick, and the worse: paying to win...

Thats it so I didn't do cause I didn't want to spend my time grinding the same content so i entered PvP (Player vs Player) and I was a bit excited but once I got in the match I was greeted by someone in god mode! I made a ticket to the support but they didn't do anything say it was part of their privacy policy and couldn't disclose that information. Not only that turns out theres is a sea of game breaking bug from Money glitches (Yes money glitch it isn't fix yet and someone showed me how they made 45 million in 3 minutes without selling anything just duplicating money) to infinite power (You use power to use special moves) not only that but some powers are far better than other and the dev's know this! Theres a bug where you can impersonate someone else in the "shout chat" (Talk to everyone in the area you are in) and you can slander there name all you want and when I made a ticket and talk to the support team I just got this response "What you are seeing is a common exploit players use to harass other players: they type a message in chat, add spaces, and then type [You] or your character name to make it appear as if you are saying something that you are not." "I hope that these troublemakers do not deter you from enjoying DC Universe Online." THEY KNOW THIS IS A ISSUE and tell you to ignore the person who does it instead of trying to fix it. Not only that but the community manager Mepps does little to nothing to fix the game and only comes on into the game to talk about base discounts! STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME! YOU SHOULD NOT SUPPORT THIS BROKEN MESS! People who had this game for years are blind to the issues the game has and just go with it and say stuff like "Don't like it don't play it" and then judge you based only on how much money you spent in game. That being said save your money and avoid this game.… Expand

    The community (including the current SOE community manager for dcuo) is even worse than the actual game. The community manager revels in threatening posters on the forums. If they make a complaint about something, he threatens to make it worse. He used the words "be careful what you wish for" while twisting the words of a poster. Google "dcuo forum the current prestige cap isn't going to work" the green name on the third page of the thread to see the way he manages the community he was hired to manage. "Be care what you wish for..." and he made good on that threat, the very next game update addressed the issue at hand in the most sadistic way imaginable.

    The devs used to know what they were doing, but recently they've been adding boring and monotonous game mechanics that cater to three-year-olds and then the devs (especially the current creative director) openly insult their customers in the game's forums. Every week they make a new decision that is a deal breaker for people who used to be fanboys of the game.

    If you start playing it and you enjoy it, it will be a completely different game within a year. If you decide to pick it up and you love the game, the question in the back of your head should be: How long until they introduce my deal breaker to the game? Because players that were at one point the biggest supporters and fanboys of this game are now leaving en masse (I used to love this game and said many times I'd be playing this game till the servers shutdown). Right now the universally decided most obnoxious fanboy is fuming about the most recent changes, other forumites are trolling him reminding him of how he previously always said the devs are always right, and telling him he could never make good on his threat to quit the game because he has previously proclaimed that his league is like family and he loves them.

    Check out the dcuo forums and I can almost guarantee you'll see long time players begging the devs not to introduce some bull crud mechanic that will destroy the fun of the game.

    The game is buggy and you disconnect a lot, but for a longtime I convinced myself that all games will be buggy and glitchy and kick me out from time to time, it's the willful decisions that the devs make to dumb down the game and their constant underestimation of their players' intelligence and skill that got me to quit playing what was my favorite game for two years.    … Expand

    In fact, any games that have anything to do with Sony (SOE) or Prosieben (European scam-branch for SOE), AVOID IT LIKE THE PLAGUE.

    They steal your money, than when you beta tested their crap product, make it free to play and delete all your progress.

I bought it when it came out and had a blast with it for several weeks, however, much like many companies do with MMOs, they front-loaded the good content and left the last levels and end game to rot. You do hit the level cap very fast and you will enjoy your way up there, specially with the creative action-buttom-mashing-combat that it has. But once you reach end game, you find yourself with nothing else to do, literally. PvP was fun the first few weeks, then everyone left and the lack of reaction by SOE to merge servers and manage population balance killed that part too. The nail in the coffin was SOE's slow reaction (if at all) in fixing pressing issues, (not only bugs), adding new content and being involved with the community. The controls, due to the console porting, were mediocre, the interface was way too simplified at the cost of functionality, they never got around fixing the chat system correctly, and bunch of other "small" issues that overall contributed to push away their player base. Conclusion: A sad result to what could've been an amazing game. While fun initially and during the short leveling period, the game has absolutely nothing good to offer at end game. Furthermore, SOE's lack of involvement with the community and quick reaction to fix major issues with the game ended up killing DCUO's player base. This game was full of potential, and it could've been a great MMO under the right hands.… Expand

    But this game is one of the most unbalanced games I have ever played. Quest get way to repetitive with enemies 5 levels below you able to kill you very fast. The Missions get very repetitive when the enemies come at you in groups of 6 and they are all 2 levels higher then you, no way of beating em now.

    The PvP system works, except it is so unbalanced that most people just won't bother touching PvP. PvP matches are scatter with glitches, bugs and more repetitive gameplay. I will be fighting the same leveled
    players, but they will always manage to take me down in 2-4 hits but 10 hits from me won't take down half there health.

    For Fun Factor, this game has none. All you can do in this game, and I mean the only things you can do in this game is Fight, Fly or Run around the City and go from quest to quest and do PvP events. The camera is the thing that pisses me of the most, it stuffs up half way through combat only to make you die. The boss fights suk. All the bosses I fight will keep on doing Ranged attacks and constantly move away from me so I cannot attack them, and when im on very low health they get in for a melee kill.

    Overall, Just go get World of Warcraft, has loads more entertainment, DC Universe is a disaster of a game. Looks great but feels like a game that was developed by a very untalented bunch of developers.    … Expand

Visually this game does not stray from the norm -- you can not add to(remove from, or alter) the base model of your character. Further differentiating yourself from other heroes/villains feels like a chore with the boring selections provided to the player during creation. No spikes, spines, blades, etc to add to the base model. You are forced to go with a costumed theme or bare chested(while I do prefer the costume theme, variety is key to pleasing larger groups of comic book fans/gamers).

    Furthermore the PC release is nothing more than a port of the console version. Nothing has been fine-tuned, added or removed to merit a release PC side, and despite what seem to be identical experiences -- PC and PS3 servers are separate and can not play together.

    For those among you whom do not care about customizing your character, this game has a relatively fun and fast-paced physics-based game-engine. The game world itself is of fair size, fun to explore, and relatively attractive.

I'll save everyone some time - If you bought this game for PvE content (Players against Environment) then it may be the game for you but I've seen better in other games --- If you bought this game for PvP (Players against Players) then return the game now - Short description of PVP: you'll either experience stuns to the point of you not even getting a chance to attack or you'll randomly just die from one attack that doesn't hit you for full health --- Before you buy this game I have to recommend watching a video or two of actual gameplay on a site --- hacks, exploits, PvP and PvE !---Time to reach max level - 50-60 hours---!… Expand

    DC Universe Online plays best if you've never tried a MMORPG before. The combat is innovative and addictive, the visuals are sleek and the setting is exciting. It may lack some interface polish and the level cap happens too soon, but nevertheless it's a must for any comics fan.[Apr 2011, p.89]

    DCUO never really takes off. It suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, and the structure of the quests looks more suitable for a single-player RPG rather than an MMO.

    An exciting new direction for MMOs that's plenty of fun already and should only get better with a few patches under its utility belt.
