For a limited time* DCUO is allowing former subscribers to come back and enjoy subscriber benefits without subscribing from now until 1/16/2013

For those that have played, the game has had 5 DLC's which have added lots of content, we have gotten 3 new powersets (that come with the DLC's) and a new weapon as well as MANY new Legends characters to PVP with (Steel, Lex Luthor, Superman, Hal Jordan, Sinestro, Power Girl, and more!), PVP instances and a crafting system.

To add to this, DLC (going live sometime in January) will include player housing with thousands of items that will drop throughout the game that you can use to decorate your base (speaking of "pimping out" the game ;) ). Even non-subscribers will have access to the basic hideout. For those that get the full DLC, it also includes PVP matches in your base (actually it's an instanced version of one of the occupants' bases with some of the furniture and fixtures being breakable). There's also league/legion halls that will be coming out during the summer DLC (DLC 8) which will include league/legion base raids.

This happened yesterday (1/29/2013):

Home Turf DLC Pack Now Available!


Player Bases
Legendary members and owners of Home Turf receive two Lair Themes: “Gothic” and “Deco”, and a Theme for a smaller, limited “Dive” Hideout available in the Dispenser. Look for “Home is Where Your Base Is” in your Mission Journal. Complete the mission to receive one Deed which can be used for placing a base at an in-game address of your choice. The mission is granted at level 12 or higher.

Base Decoration Mode & CustomizationPlayers are able to customize their Base in many different ways using the Base Decoration Mode. Accessed via the Control Panel located near the entrance of your base, Decoration Mode is the place for arranging items throughout the Base, customizing the colors of certain areas of the Base, selecting the player’s Emblem to be displayed on a wall plaque, and renaming the Base. Players can customize their Base(s) by adding items found throughout DC Universe Online.

Base Mainframe and Dispenser
Each Base comes equipped with a Mainframe and a Dispenser that can be accessed inside your base. Players can unlock and gain access to Upgrades and temporary Boosts by activating the Mainframe’s Generator power cells. Players can also set Permissions through their Mainframe to allow friends and League mates to enter and help decorate their Base.

Lair Battle PvP
Take on your opponent in your Lair or your opponent’s Lair. Once you have created your own Lair, go to your On Duty Menu, select Lair Battles under the Arenas: PvP tab and select your Lair to Queue. Level Requirement: 30

Tactical Mods
Tactical Mods are available through your Base’s Dispenser. Tactical Mods can be socketed to your gear and weapons to add a wide range of combat benefits. Level Requirement: 30

Upgrades and Boosts
Players can access Upgrades and temporary Boosts from their Mainframe. These Upgrades and Boosts can be added to your Utility Belt and ability bar to call in Orbital Strikes, Supply Drops, Sidekicks or Back-Up (Heroes) and Accomplices or Henchmen (Villains).


New Daily Missions

Home Turf Daily Missions can be found at Arkham Asylum, Ace Chemicals, Steelworks, and Stryker’s Island locations. Look for “Trouble at Ace Chemicals” (Heroes) and “Hostile Takeover at Steelworks” (Villains) in your Mission Journal. Level Requirement: 30 Combat Rating Requirement: 70

New Bounties for Heroes and Villains

Bounty posters can be found at the Arkham Water Processing Facility Dock, Steelworks, the Processing Facility on Stryker’s Island, and Ace Chemicals in Gotham. Home Turf bounties are Raid level so bring some friends! Level Requirement: 30 Combat Rating Requirement: 70
New Collections and Feats

New Feats, Collections, Investigations, and Briefs added!
New Weapon Styles and Gear Sets

Four new gear styles and two new weapon sets inspired by Home Turf added!


I spent just over 8 hours going through this yesterday and really can't express how much fun the missions, the lairs and the new 1v1 matches are (complete with cut scenes that are pretty sweet).
