CoX

City of Villains/City of Heroes

I played these for about 1yr and 1/2. The game has many problems with balance. Heroes and Villains are almost completely different in their class types. There are certain class types that are almost impossible to kill 1vs1 in PvP unless u catch them AFK. Limits to amount of people you can have in your Super Groups is a downer. You also usually get advantages if you choose to be a hero rather than a villain. Leveling can be very slow. Some class selections are nearly impossible to get any real xp with if not in a group. Squishy classes may be stunned easily, while classes with monstrous health have tons of protection. Energy costs can drain you fast for powers and leave u helpless, there are however PvP items u can obtain to fix that problem. All PvP zones have NPCs, so watch yer back, someone might decide to Teleport u into a mob. Base designing is a good feature, you may build a massive fortress with several rooms and defenses. There are also SG missions available through your base. The game design is much different with enhancements to slot on Powers you select. Being able to slot better enhancements as you advance in levels. There are some new features I have not checked out yet. In the near future I may post them.
