    We apologize for the unexpected server downtimes today. We're working on expanding the capacity right away and there may be brief interruptions because of these efforts.This is estimated to take several hours while we make configuration changes and add additional capacity. We are sorry for the growing pains, but they won't last long!

    Since I'm bored with the servers down here's my villain and hero. Dull menu shots, but there's nothing I can do about that at the moment.

    Is the league on the villain server fairly decent sized?

    I may make one there just to experience some of the villain quests. Sucks the servers are down, but it's awesome the reason they are down is due to them upping server capacity. Which is good.

    Also my name on the Hero server is Northern Light... When the servers go up can I get an invite by someone? I'd love to post a pic of him but apparently you cant screenshot the loading screen.

    It is very hard to figure out who is online because there is often quite a few bugs with the league window which causes people who are or arn't online to both show up and disappear when searching through the different options.

    I wish the league would actually showed us what each member's level is, and where they are as well. Really, after playing WoW, this game's whole chat/league/friends interface is just sooooo lacking.

    But the game is still pretty fun.

    When they say "they won't last long" I'm pretty sure they're referring to the period of time in which unscheduled maintenance occurs and not the length of each individual maintenance session.

    They would be rather smart to suggest reading some comics from the DC comics application or online through comixology.

    I'm really loving this whole collectible costume pieces thing going on. It's too bad you can't get some of these things in the initial character creator.

    I even made an alter ego for Red Rooster.

    I got back in to see if my mission completed, and it did, but somehow of my 6 powers hotkeyed 3 weren't there when I needed them and was ganked by a villain I could have otherwise taken (my Shazam word wasn't there!). On top of that once I accepted a mission about scarecrow and fear gas I was unable to move, so I just exited and will try tomorrow and see if it runs smoother then.

    On top of that the mail server is still wonky in game, I have about 4 gifts I can't open up yet.

    I mean, this is a way to annoy me from playing the game, don't bring back the servers unless it's 100%.

    Excelsior, True Believers!

    Oh, wait a minute, wrong game!

    Anyways, I'm with a group of players on No Man's Land server. Our clan/guild/league name is Manly Tears. Some of you may remember us from Modern Warfare 2. Anyways we are back and being awesome. We are Villains (Which heroes out number us by 3 to 1) and looking for others to play with us. If you are on the No Man's Land server and a villain, give us a shout. Look for Chief Lightninghawk (LV 25) and he can add you to our group.

    Edit: Also, I'm Cybernexus (LV 5)
