so apparently lock boxes are making their way into dcu also, however like their f2p model that doesnt just outright stick it to paying subs, if you have a paying sub you get to open the boxes for free, and everyone else must buy a key. So what do you guys think of their lockbox plan?

    Interesting idea, I havent played DCUO in a while, so I've been out of touch with them, I doubt that Cryptic will outright makes lockboxes free, but maybe making it so keys drop as loot? They can make it pretty rare if they want, then you can open the lockboxes if your already paying for the game, but you could still bypass some of the luck by buying a shortcut.

    Question, does the free lockboxes work for lifers in DCUO?

    This was talked about awhile ago, but, like the last thread, this one will be locked.

    ....becasue Cryptic knows they are gyping us all...

    in STO

    1 week = 49 lock boxes

    In DCUO

    1 Week = 1 lock box

    Please note, that this is my experience only and dose not account for other variations due to game time, and or possible variations due to other considerations.

    Not to mention that DCUO has a 30 day expiration date for ALL lock boxes.

    Also of note that DCUO also offers free opening to all lock boxes if you subscribe.
