DCUO Archive: Villain CC Route

-
Gotham City

NOTE: This content is no longer relevant as base teleporters were added shortly after the Home Turf DLC. With the addition, there is no longer a need to travel from bounty to bounty by physically flying to them. This archive shows how inefficiently we did things back when it was current! We had to go back to the Watchtower or Hall of Doom in the middle when switching cities. The 2 in Central City are both available and the respawn timer was reduced across all of them.

Location: Justice Girls league site

I don't have too much experience with the villain bounties. I did 2 runs by myself and last night lead a semi-pugged group. As many know, the hero order is:

Boom-Piper-Trick-Heat-Cold-Top-Weather (Zoom & Abra can be either at the start or end)

...which is based on shortest distance. You exit CC and go to the closet teleporter, Gotham East. You work your way to the Diamond District station and teleport to Metropolis Midtown. Then you work your way to Chinatown & teleport back to CC.

So I came up with this route for the villainside:

Night-Static-Raven-Star-Cyborg-Donna-Kid (Flash & Black Lightning can be either at the start or end)

Like the hero version, the CC teleporter is in the Tech Wing. So you start in Gotham East with Nightwing. Static is between the 2 stations an typically on the riverwalk. Then Raven is at the university across the river. After that, you teleport to Chinatown Metropolis and work your way East (Starfire by the Atlanteans, Cyborg at the Spire, Donna Troy near the courthouse)... then South for Kid Flash in Little Bohemia.

Setting Up OBS & Gamepad Viewer for UX Testing

-

After a couple of tests, I found the OBS setup with control pad overlay to work very well and is a useful tool in user experience/intent testing. It's an onscreen representation of control pad input that syncs up with gameplay. It can be used to check that input results the proper output in game. This setup will be valuable as changes to UIs are being made as we want to avoid control pad efficiency becoming worse.  Setting Up Example / Application Downloads Gamepad Viewer (https://gamepadviewer.com/) OBS (https://obsproject.com/)
