  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I broke down and got this because I thought my son, 4, would have fun watching me play. Well, it turns out he's not so bad at the action part of it, getting a 32 hit combo in the final battle on the ship. There are a lot of skill nuances that he doesn't get but he has fun flying around and "swooping on badguys" so it's ok. Anyone else played it or intend to try it?

I really enjoy the intuitive controller setup even though I play on PC and the combat system is a lot of fun with some amazing combos and special powers.

Here's the character I'm pretty much set on as my main. He's a brawler, using bare fists or punching weapons and has fire based powers for good DPS and aggro. Flight is his method of movement, of course. :)

Special moves are easy to pull off so you don't have to be a hard core gamer to do well but a more demanding gamer can push harder for more accomplishments. Plus it's really cool to interact with DC greats like Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Lex, etc.

My favorite tactic so far is to use Lunging Right to cover distances in a fight. Target an enemy then hold X for a second and you will leap to him at once and clock him. I then drop an explosive AoE stun then beat them down while alternating powers.

Triggers provide shift functions to the 4 face buttons for 8 alternate assignments easily accessible to health packs and other powers.

I'd like to find a good, family friendly guild and do family hunts and such involving younger players. Right now I'm just having fun being a hero. I kinda dig my villain too, he's mean.
