I'm really looking forward to this. And that lifetime sub sure sounds appealing.

I tried to do the beta, but my PC isn't up to it, either, and my PS3 and wireless connection balked at more than 20 hours of downloads, so I'll be waiting for my disc.
I did have friends who played, however, and they said it was awesome -- especially the character generator. What concerns me is that it played like a more traditional fighting game, even on the PC, relying on combos. I usually try go get through those kinds of games by button-mashing, but that's not enough on some. I have a feeling this will join the pile of games that look really cool and I'd love to play but can't get past the first or second level.

I'm up and running Blue! I'm on World 7.. I don't remember the name of the server.. But I'm the Red Talon! He's got Gadgets, Dual Pistols and acrobatics.
I had a LOT of fun messing around with character creation.. but once I got playing i'm struggling with the camera. For some reason, it won't stay locked behind my toon.. instead I have to constantly move it as I move.

I'm on also and having the problem with the camera as well as finding it to be very laggy. Can't say I'm really enjoying it too much (except for character creator of course)
I have Valiant Lad on Brave New World server but don't think I'm happy with the power choices so he may not last.
BTW, how the heck do you get out of the ship?

Have you gotten to the point where you meet Superman, Vee?
After you talk to Superman, Oracle tells you to take a teleporter out. The teleporter is that large glowing thing in the corner.
I have made a couple of characters. It wouldn't let me make a Blue Battler, so I am working on making a Power Prince.
