Default Champions Online Open Beta, my thoughts

First off, I wasn't expecting anything big from this game. It looked pretty decent, but I was still dissapointed. The main issue for me is the very clunky engine. Everything feels soo stiff and static.

The graphics are also pretty bad, with low res texture and bad modeling.

Although the character creating is pretty good, it can get annoying and allot of the models are ugly(which is my opinion). I played a few quests here and there, and even though it's not enough play time to actually write a review on it, I'm just giving in my first impressions.

Anyways, what did you guys think of it? For those that have actually managed to download the client and update it.

I seriously think that the developers/programmers or w/e need to create a more stable patcher. And don't BS me about how "It's only OB and it these are the kind of bugs they are looking for", NO OB is for them to get as many people as they can on to their servers and test out the SERVERS and the GAME, not the PATCHER, which should have been fixed during CB. But that is just one man's rant. I just hope to get into the game today and actually test it :/

What first day of beta didn't have any problems? It always happens.

i don't understand why i can handle games made with unreal engine 3 ON MAX

and i cannot handle this game smoothly on max.

also, i dislike how the game starts. you enter the game and it's all chaos and everything's very messy.

you also have many quests to accomplish and EVERY monster is aggresive.

let's hope they make major changes.

Unreal 3 engine is really well made and it can look good on many computers. This one might not be as well constructed. I think it still looks pretty good from some of the higher-set screenshots.

-Hey all :P this is my first post on forums, i dl champions online today....tho patch did take a bit long to dl but thats ok because its still beta, but i did not like game that much, all those visual effects are too much imo lol after 30 mins of playing my eyes hurt <_< and when i disable some effects then game look bad :S, quests are "ok" with quest tracker even new players can do them easy. Nothing more to say really, i was hoping to see much more from this game, ah well ill just wait for Aion to come out.

Turn off the bloom and the anti tropic filter + turn off Vsync. If you turn off V sync which the game turns on by default it will run MUCH more smoothly.

See how much more smooth mine is compared to yours?




Mine in game compared to yours
