did someone sayd hero vs villains? i must have missheared, because it sounded a lot like OPEN WORLD PVP here we come!
I cant find the right thread, but dev is on this one, so ill post it here. Can you improve Heroic hairstyle, or make new long hair style, inspired by Tiger from Suicide Squad Hell to Pay animated movie?
Just one question; is the whole stroyline a trip back in time for the game, since the Superman MEMORIAL Statue is up in Metropolis Centennial Park and the established DCUO canon is DoS took place a while before the Exobyte Release, or did that NOT happen in this?
When they say it’s based on Death On Superman... that’s only half true. It’s actually based on the Superman: Doomed story. But that was itself basically the New 52 remake of The Death Of Superman. They mentioned something about Alura locking Doomsday in the Phantom Zone, so that means this must follow on from the Kandor Central Tower raid.
Basically, yeah - "Doomed" is a sequel to DoS moreso than a remake, because DoS kinda/sorta still happened in New52, they just gloss right over it, lol So by the end of this, I expect we'll be fighting "SuperDoom" to contain him and free Superman from the virus (since Superman is spending all of part 1 in the cloud with Doomsday, it's a pretty easy guess he'll get infected). Which is neat, though I'd prefer to fight an end-raid-worthy Hank Henshaw in Engine City.
That would have problems of its own. Well two of them: The Eradicator and Matrix Supergirl(later Earth Born Angel of Fire Supergirl) If it follows the comic story line, then we will have two Supermen for a short period of time. The DCUO Superman will be back(the one with the red trunks) Pre-Flashpoint Superman along with his son.
Oh, I don't mean in a re-do story - I mean in a "Henshaw uses the Doomsday distraction and a weakened Superman to build a new Engine City. Maybe below Metropolis, or something. Because Death & Return already happened, this would have to be "Engine City 2.0" or something. And while they could just swap Supergirls (nice one remembering Matrix, btw!), it would be cool to see the Eradicator again (though he's more of a villain now, at the moment, he is back in his RoS costume). We wouldn't have two Supermen, anyway, because the DCUO Superman is, for all intents and purposes, the Pre-Flashpoint Superman - which is why the DCUO Superman is in the "Reborn" suit (the merger of the New52 and PF versions, yes, but he's mainly the PF Superman)
Oooh! Ok, that IS cool, if true. Hope he's back in his more 'Superman-looking" costume (the Reborn one is nice). He's no longer a Yellow Lantern, after all.
Can't wait to see some content that doesn't make me feel like I'm in a Sponge Bob Squarepants episode!
