    You crack me up and made that way more complicated than it needed to be.

    With the current lack of quality in DCUO's "community", easy solutions like direct player-to-player trades will be exploited. And just unlocking everything for free will kill Daybreak's revenue. It needs to be more elaborated, and it works in STO (the exact same way). No reason to pamper freeloaders, they should at least have to put time and effort into it when playing free (giving less people a reason to drop subscription).

    don't worry in time you xbox players will join us on the ps/pc servers so start getting those skill points up now or you'll be eaten alive :)

    The deal with the population not being sustainable is the ability of the higher CR's being able to come in and ruin all the content for newer players. The way that DCUO tried to handle the situation made the game & queue times even worse.
    What was it???
    MARKS RELEVANCY which was part of GU 47.
    Marks relevancy/GU 47 singlehandedly cut the games population in almost 1/2 within a couple months.
    There are/were so many things that GU 47 included that were complete garbage it is amazing to me that some people that tried to sell this garbage to the customers still have a job. The most astounding thing is that the worst thing of all in GU 47 that is affecting DCUO's player base is still being denied even after almost a year.
    The queue times before GU 47 were about 5 minutes at most for all tiers within the game and after GU 47 went live queue times went to at least 15-20 and sometimes 30-40 depending on the time of day (this was on the PC server too).
    Marks relevancy was a 1/2 azzed attempted to get the higher CR's to stay in their own content because DCUO had/has issues implementing stat clamping in lower content. Now when you do get a blind queue you have almost a 100% change of at least one over geared player that will come in a wreck the whole instance. Most of the time these guys are just as tired of waiting for a queue as you and all they want to do is get out of there ASAP.

    DCUO tried to alleviate this problem by giving players a % change at collecting marks but it was a fail considering before GU 47 players collected marks on all content they ran 100% of the time unless loot locked of course.

    Now marks relevancy bumps players out of tiers too fast and not allowing players to take time and enjoy the content.
    If they come back to the content that they did not get to complete. They will most certainly be over geared and considering they waited just as long as you with the chance of not collecting marks........ THESE GUYS COULD GIVE TWO SHIPS ABOUT WHAT ANYONE THINKS...... They want to get in and get out... You can thank the DCUO dev team and the denial of what marks relevancy along with the things associated associated to it has done to the games population and queue times.

    Don't get me wrong....I was not trying to get on a rant....
    I think this game is awesome but the refusal to address things that have clearly killed the games population is dumbfounding.

    but................From what I've seen from the new devs most notably Avair. I think the game is heading the right direction. Everything he has touched so far has been golden. :) Just hang in there.

    Don't worry, you Xbox fanboys will be merging with the rest of us soon. Just remain patient until further notice :)

    Honestly, the PC & Xbox should be on the same server and PS4 can keep that red headed step child PS3. The merge of PC & PS has run off the majority of the PC base. Toooooooo many kids on the PS server.

    You are seriously DELUSIONAL...
    If it wasn't for the merge that dead zone you call PC server would be an even bigger ghost town.

    And what...you think XBOX is no different in terms of "kids"
    SMH

    Needing gold sub is about as big of a non issue there could be. If you play any game on x1 you have gold. It's like when all of the crybabies were whining about needing an always on Internet. If u have an xbox chances are u already have it because there's no other way to play.

    Sure as heck ain't using dialup

    LOL, I am not delusional I am stating facts.
    The PC server was fine before GU 47 and the PC population was definitely larger than it is now before merge with PS. Yes, there are older players on the Xbox. Why? the cost and durability of the consoles when each console first came out. Sony PS was more durable and cheaper. I know this from experience people with kids will naturally buy a cheaper product that is as good or almost as good as a more expensive less durable product.
    Now the PC is being held back by the PS3. The graphics went to hell in a hand basket after the merge with PS. My graphics settings on high are now what they were set on low with the PC server. On the PC server I could get into my graphics card and adjust to get even better graphics. Not anymore. Pure garbage. You can ask all PC players and 90% would rather be merged with the Xbox.

    Oh god you kill me..
    The average gamer is a 35 year old male (go look it up I'll wait)

    Ok, so your back...good let's debunk more of your gibberish. PC population:. Was small before and yes It's smaller yet still. You think that (see avg age factiod) it's much less or more on XBOX. I got news for you...ITS THE SAME (psst I own both too) So you want to merge an already small population with an even smaller one? Great idea there skippy!!! Now you can have an "almost ghost town" instead of what we have here on PS/PC side.

    Now let's look at the graphics you talk about? Umm yeah, they debunked that one about the time the PS4 came out. Look it up ....I'll wait again.

    Let's also consider the fact that the PS3 you so hate, also even at the time of the PS4 was spending g almost 3-1 in real money BEFORE merge than that of a PC player on avg. They really held the game up big time on that part right? I mean basically paying the bills and keeping the game afloat and whatnot...

    PS said they would entertain crossplay and I'd welcome the Xbox side right along. YOUd get murdered BTW (see I own both statement). Yet they are in the position of power being the 4 has outsold the XBONE more than 2-1. ultimately I don't ever see it happening, simply becuase Live and PSN will never co.e to agreement.
