I'm still on the fence of changing Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Remembering the travesty known as Windows Vista and that the next "update" is not always the best in mind, not sure if I should switch to Windows 10. Is Windows 10 good for Champions Online? On logging in, playing the game and everything? Any technical issues going on with it?

I don't know if anything's running better, I do know nothing is running worse. Four year old "desktop replacer" laptop.

The Start Menu and all of the Apps decided to off themselves, and shutting down would not turn off the machine.
Go ahead and make the switch if you can. If you don't like it or have problems, you can go back at any time within 30 days of making the switch. It's pretty painless, so go try it out.
And I will always be @DZPlayer122.

My super cool CC build and how to use it.
Only major issue I've had is with Perfect World's own products ie. Perfect World/Forsaken World/Jade Dynasty. They apparently never bothered to make their client ready for Windows 10 and it has some annoying graphics issues because of it.

I like to run a lot of usermade/indie games, especially old OLD retro games and programs or other miscellaneous stuff, but Compatability is just not there. If youre running the most latest AAA games, and the latest most expensive software like Photoshop, you probably wont have any issues but support for very old titles is falling off.
I cant run Xcom, my old Ejays and Mugen Classic struggles. I cant even run Rise Of Nations (which MICROSOFT made btw, go figure a Microsoft Game not working on a Microsoft OS) and thats not even too old
If it isnt 100% compatible, its not useful to me. I dont care about the buggy MobileAPPs, i dont buy gaming machines to play Angry Birds >.<
If compatability isnt there from Windows 95, alllll the way to todays software, i cant recommend it.
Thats just me though, im very much a retro geek. I like my old things, and i like them to work.

No issues with the Win10 updates on most of the systems here; the only one with a problem is this cheap (literally - the least expensive one available) laptop we got for living-room websurfing. It has a 32Gb drive, and there's less than 10Gb left after all the system software, so it can't upgrade (not enough storage for the process). Can't try to run CO on it either, for similar reasons.

Looks like a few other players are getting that on Win10 as well, so here's hoping to that getting fixed.

Check your manufacture make sure you have the latest BIOS update. If you don't know your manufacture, in search type msinfo32 and on that screen look for BIOS which should tell you the date and manufacture of your motherboards BIOS. Then check with the manufacture to see if they have an updated BIOS for you. (an updated BIOS can even help with crash issues you might be experiencing with your video card).
Make sure all other important drivers and features are up to date. If you are using, for instance,a wireless connection, be sure the wireless hardware has up to date software as it might not work with Win10 if you haven't updated it in a while.
Win10 has compatibility mode features, so saying you can't play old games on Win10 but can on Win7 means you did something wrong.

It works just as well as it does on previous versions.
Even if you do have the bug, it doesn't always happen when you start up the game, and judging by a lot of the feedback here it certainly doesn't happen to every Win10 user. still not to say it's just me though.
