What is something after a long time of playing DCUO that you only just realised/found out?

    I just found out that you're named after the Steve Trevor in the WW movie

    The base tracking system.

    I also never saw the point of decorating bases until i realized they add to league points.

    A certain veteran player did not realize the up or down arrows above player/npc dots on the minimap indicated that they were above or below you. This player will not be named.

    I learned that instance from a veteran who taught us how to exploit it and skip that boss entirely to get the speed feat. I only exploited it that one time, following his lead, so he clearly did not know about it either. I'm fairly sure that particular exploit was fixed long ago, but since I've never tried it since, I can't say for sure.

    I wonder if a lot of the original players failed to learn that mechanic because they skipped the boss. :( (Not saying you didn't learn for that reason directly, but maybe because people didn't pass the information to you because they skipped and didn't learn it)

    I’m just going to go ahead and surmise it’s because THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THAT TELLS YOU THIS INGAME.

    That's true of most mechanics. I learned a lot of things through trial and error or from word of mouth. Word of mouth is unfortunately less reliable than trial and error since players often provide strategies based on being over-geared or doing things that are probably not how the developers intended for them to be done.

    I wish there was some kind of almanac or bestiary for these things. Someone told me a few months ago that Lashina only does her reflect after she loses each quarter of her health. I haven’t been in DWF since to confirm that, but if it’s true? That’s the sort of info I’d have crawled over broken glass with my flies undone for back when it was current!

    There's an icon to the left of your name and health bar, that indicates whether or not you're in movement mode. If it's visible, you are, if not displayed, you aren't.

    Haven't seen her around in a while, I wonder if she's still playing the game.;)

    I remember seeing it in another thread, so you could probably look it up. It was either a similar thread to this, or possibly a "look what I found" specifically about that. I don't remember who it was or how long ago it was though.

    Few days ago I realized that typing "Box" into the All search of the Broker would list every gear box currently being sold.

    So many Time Capsule style sets I was missing until discovering this.

    Wait, what?

    I know the dots change to an arrow when they're at a different height then you, but never realized it pointed up or down....

    Go back on vacation. Making people feel like noobs.

    Even though I've been playing for about 5 years or so, I'm still occasionally discovering new keyboard commands for the PC version that I didn't realize were there (simply due to hardly ever using those functions.)

    I just found out how to zoom out the screen on Playstation and ive been playing on and off since 2013. Hold L1 and press up or down with the D pad.
