PvP in MMORPG's isn't as popular as you think and certainly isn't that popular with the majority of CoH players. In fact, it's even less in demand now than at release because most of the hard-core PvPers have already moved on. The 'Arena' module won't be available until Spring '05 for Hero vs. Hero PvP. Epic ATs and Epic Power Pools are just more non-PvP content, so it's dead content to your crowd. Beta for CoV - the holy grail for the PvPers - isn't going to start until April/May '05 with Live release around Fall '05. You are scr ewed. Totally scr ewed.

First off enough with the stereo types of pvp'ers. I have been gaming longer then I can remember and have always been involved in a pvp guild which to date ive been in for years.
Second - To be competitive with most of the new titles pvp is needed. CoH's strength is it appeals to a very large segmenant of players and to continue to do so it must include that type of gameplay as well.
As far as the lvl 50+ comment. CoH has no end game. That is 100% correct. Also to all those saying that they enjoy the ride getting there - thats fine. But, after spending months upon months of level grinding to reach 50 - you would like something to do with all those powers/abilitis you picked up along the way. At 50 - there is nothing to do and this will become problematic especially with the new games being released which all have end game content right out of the box.
PvP could be a nice end game type content - but that will depend on how it is developed and implemented.
We will have to wait and see though.
