Okay, I like the graphics, and the mucus-tick (Thraker-Zog? Thirsty Dog?....) is cool, but what exactly does one do in a Super-Hero MMRPG? I mean, you and a thousand other super heroes just hang around the city waiting for super villains to spawn--I mean, waiting for them to hatch a plot to take over the world? And they're going to do this frequently enough to make it fun, yet not too often so that it doesn't seem unrealistic and break the sense of immersion? Are there going to be thousands of innocent civilians going about their daily lives, counting on you to protect them?

I'm clearly missing something here.

I don't get this game. If you are making a superhero game would it not be wise to also involve alter-egos and villians as Player Characters? I am all set with another Level-quest game. This will be the point of this game:
must.... wait.... at.... spawn.... to.... get.... another.... level.
I can see it being interesting if supervillians were playing and you could get groups of villians together and the heros would get together as well. Then you could throw things into the mix like a jewlery show comes to town or any one of a thousand ideas that would bring interaction between players. I just don't see the point of paying $10 a month to play an online coop game.
