No, I can't figure out how to hack the terminal and fight the overseers

Hacking the Terminal just requires you to get near it.It should flash, and then you hit E until its hacked.

Did that over and over and over last night. Never flashed before though I was standing on the x on the map and it keep telling me to hack the damn computer!

Did you keep E pressed? You have to keep it depressed.

Yeah. There should be a little icon that lets you know that it is working. It has to complete for the hack to be complete.

Blue, hadn't seen you in a while. Great to see you again. Hope things are well.

Just keep following Oracle's advice and following the map Vee. It'll lead you to an area where you have to deactivate some equipment so Superman can get on the ship.

I've got Marvel Lad on the Zero Hour server. His mentor is Superman, and I chose Fly, Brawl and Mental. So he's kind of a mixture of Superboy and Projectra.

Never played. Is it any good?

Just debuted on Tuesday Rick. I'm having a few issues so I can't really tell yet but some of the others seem to be liking it.

We might want to pick a server and try to run a Legion Group.

Probably wouldn't work for me. I haven't played any games since Zelda was 64 bit or something like that. Nintendo before the 64? WAAAAAAAYYYYYY to many combinations of maneuvers for me.

Vee.. did you get through Brainiac's ship?

I'm having a lot of fun with the game so far. I haven't got to spend a lot of time with it because of work.

Yesterday, I was busy stopping Gorilla Grodd's plans and even teamed up with the Flash to stop him.

I think I must be doing something wrong or have not actually found the terminal because I've spent way too much time trying to hack it and nothing. Valiant is standing in front of a window that looks out over a work pit of some sort with overseers in it. Does that sound like the right place? Directly ahead of the tunnel that brings you to this room. Also, I keep seeing the tip to hack the terminal bt pressing E when I'm near the terminal so I assume I'm near it.

On top of the "lag" and camera issues, this is getting me very frustrated!

I'll double check but the termianl isn't right at the window I think.

It's right before the Trash room, Vee. If it doesn't have an 'E' over it when you get close, it's the wrong one.

I am looking to find out how to use a controller with the PC version. From playing the PS3 version I think it's much easier to play with a controller.

Let us know what you find out Blue. That camera thing is annoying.

The terminal you are supposed to hack Vee is after you drop through those transport tubes. you get a cut scene and then it's right there i think.

It's supposed to be an option but as of yesterday there were bugs indicating that some people were not able to get the option to use controllers.

And Vee, I also saw a post about some players not being able to get off Brainiac's ship.

Maybe you should make another toon on another server and see if you get the same result. I know from experience you can use the same name on different servers.

We need to pick a server to play on together.. maybe Virtue and Vice so we can be the Legion of Virtue again?

I'll give it a shot on Virtue & Vice then.

Well, made a new toon on Virtue & Vice but the same thing is happening. I drop down from the tube but I do not get a cut scene and there is nothing that flashes or shows an E above it when I get near it. Not sure what else to do.

Guess I'll try to do a little research on their forums to try to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Made a Power Prince on Virtue and Vice.

In an attempt to make the game a PS3 *and* PC usable game without 'speaking' either 'language,' it's a bit of a Frankenstein's monster that doesn't do either version terribly well, IMO.

City of Heroes and Champions Online are both way easier to move around in, and you aren't limited to having six powers (because having a keyboard with 45 buttons is wasted on a game that's designed to be playable on a gamepad with a half dozen).

I'm kinda surprised at the clunky and limited palette of costume / appearance options. This is Sony, the company that brought us Star Wars Galaxies, which had *incredibly* thorough and captivating character customization options for the various Star Wars races.

Nice cloth textures on the capes, 'though, and I love, love, love that the speedsters can run up walls and stuff (a waist-high wall could be an impassable barrier to a superhero in Champions Online or City of Heroes, if they couldn't fly, super-jump or otherwise get around it!).

I've got a nature dude on Virtue & Vice named Woodwose, but I didn't make it out of the tutorial yet, because I just kept dying and dying and got frustrated.

Turns out having never played a controller game in my life was a bit of a handicap.

Well, if they ever send me my review copy, I'll hop on Virtue and Vice.

Set, I stink at controller games, so your post scares me. But I'll still give it a go.
