What? Am I the only one who sees this?
No. NCSoft killed COH.
GW2 may have taken more funding than needed or something - but the blame lands squarely on the folks at NCSoft corporate.

I think they wanted to push people to their new game so the eliminated the most primary competition with themselves they had.
DnD did the same thing when they came out with 4th ed. They stopped ALL pdf sales of their old material.
Personally, due to the way NCSoft pulled the rug out from under Paragon Studios like this, I, for one, will never play an NCSoft product again. (Well, 'never' is a strong word. Let's just say it would take major new management, rehiring many of the Paragon Studios folks in other parts of the company -- or at least OFFERING them a place elsewhere, etc...)
I -was- interested in some of the other games in the NCSoft stable, especially GW2 and Wildstar (or whatever it is called).... but now... they ain't getting any more of my money if I realize that money is going to NCSoft.

Apparently you can't buy GW2 currently because they've had some massive phishing issue that's compromised their database. Never seen a game come pre-hacked before.

Yeah I said it!
They want us to run to GW2, so the canned CoH only a mere 3 days after GW2 started.
