Holy green spandex outfits, Batman! Let out your inner superhero, or that dastardly demagogue we know you keep hidden in your brainy bits.

Interesting...! Not quite sure what to say, since very little of what it actually IS has been revealed, but still...oooooooh... :D

I bet this will be PVP expansion. Its only logic way to compete with Champions and DC.

...I can pretty much guarantee it will not be about the PvP.

CoX has NEVER been about the PvP. Infamously so. They recently updated the PvP and alienated the majority of their dedicated PvP'ers an attempt to get the PvE crowd involved.

No, this will be the long-awaited "crossover"; Brutes, Dominators, Stalkers, Corruptors and Masterminds will roam the streets of Paragon, not as enemies, but as heroes themselves! Personally, I can't wait. Also, the chance for Villains to enjoy the benefits of a real tank can never be underestimated. It effectively doubles the size of both games.

Of course, with my luck, I won't be able to afford the subscription for both CoH AND CO by that point. :D

Well they had to do something to keep in the game ... and it does sound interesting. Personnally I'd like to see masterminds get the ability to design their hencemen.

Well, it's basically doubling the amount of playable classes, which is awesome. I'll look forward to hearing more, though I expect I'll be deep into Champions once this comes out...

Yeah, it has never been about PvP, lootgrind and MIGHTY POWAH PlayAHS! at all... But about the process, learning the skills and fun therein of your character - it is the same with CO...

Gogogo Cryptic for creating COX and CO!

and... oooh! ;)

Still.

Real PVP battles between heroes and villains. City where villains cloud rob banks and heroes would come to stop them - as example.

That would be neat...

And I am saying that although PVE is my preferred mode of play
