I don't know whether to be happy that the MMO is being made or sad that it's done in Superhero Squad style.
Hopefully this will be good.

WTF, what a waste. DC making DCU Online, and Marvel making this waste...
Imagine how great a seriosus Marvel U MMO could be...

Yeah. This looks very kiddie. I wanted something in the vein of what DC is doing or what has been done with City of Heroes/Villains. This, meh.

I predict a slow and painful death to this MMORPG. It wont work.

How many MMORPGs are aimed at kids? How many parents would let their kids play a game like that for hours on end, online, with a world of strangers. There is nothing wrong with a game aimed at kids. But when an announcement is made about a Marvel MMO while DC is ramping one up featuring their characters in a "normal" comic book setting I think fans want to see something similar to that. Nothing wrong with Super Hero Squad game, but when I think of a dream Marvel MMO this is not what springs to mind. They should take advantage of the show and toyline for sure. But this isn't the type of game I dropped tons of cash on a PS3 and 360 to play and envision a big Marvel announcement around. I want to be able to recreate a Civil War type battle in the realistically 3D rendered streets of New York. This may be great for the kids, but I guess I was expecting a Marvel MMO announcement to target the audience that usually makes an MMO a success. This announcement seems to be outside that gaming genre's usual target. That's what makes me react with "meh". Originally Posted by Free-Man

Y'know, guys, we're probably not the intended audience for the game. Additionally, I imagine this will be in the same vein as those cheap, free Korean MMOs, like Ghost X.

So you're like one of the 5 people who doesn't think DC Online doesn't look like a piece of shit. Originally Posted by Ziza9

"......and dozens more Marvel heroes"
They can only do this as I imagine only "dozens" of people will be playing it.
Sure, it's cool you can play AS the characters, but how many Wolverines will I have to endure if I choose to play?
City of Heroes was fun (for awhile), I didn't care much for the gameplay of Champions Online. And to be honest, the character creators for both games was really one of the highlights of playing.
I'm not a DC guy at heart, although I am fond of some of their properties and will check them out. I was looking forward to the REAL Marvel MMO. It's too bad that it turned to vapor, and we got treated to this.
