I picked CoX because Champions has the worse set of graphics than any MMO ive seen.  I do find graphics having a part to play in the whole picture of an enjoyable game environment; right up there with balance issues, gameplay, lore, customer service, etc.

Graphics are horrible in Champions.

I would be surprised if Champion is anywhere close to CoX.

 

Hopefully, CoX is about to expand with a new setting.  New twists, new rules, new setting.  I am definitely looking forward to a City of Medieval-Fantasy or whatever they have in mind.

 

I will try Champion, but it really seem to be turning as an arcade game, with some RPG elements...yet who know...this definition could describe Diablo or Diablo III as well.

No official announcement. But reading between the lines (acquisition by NCSoft, President's statement about CoH Brand, hiring new staff, separate charge codes for different City developments...) I'd say it's a given.

Based on what Ncsoft has done in the past I think it is highly unlikely.  They simply do not do paid expansions for their subscription based games unless they have changed their stance all of sudden.

"Why so serious?"

 It's a bit to early to choose which will be the better one as champions is not  even in beta yet and has had hardly any information released.

But from what iv seen so far CO look's promising I'm an old school COH player and loved it still is one of my favorite mmo's to date but needs more as it got boring so maybe CO will bring that to the table.

From the screens and vids so far it looks basically the same with some tweaks one of the obvious one is the graphics which in my opinion suits a super hero mmo allot better than what CoX has atm its more comic book style which i like.

But at the end of the day if CO delivers it will be a great mmo and defiantly  better than CoX i look forward to playing.

 

PS: unless ofc DCUO shines more than CO then I'm in a bit of a pickle but again DCUO has not had enough information yet.  

MMO's iv played etc:

Currently playing:
.Lotro

Retired From best to worst:
.CoX, SWG, AoC, WoW, Eve online, R.O.S.E online, Kal Online, Runescape, Other F2P mmo's

Waiting for:
.SGW
.Champions Online
.DCUO

CoX vs CO probably but the way SOE does their things, I honestly don't think SOE will do well with competing, they're often busy with themselves in sucking cash from their customers than worrying how well the game does compared to others.

List of SOE lies
What do Treyarch, EA and SOE all have in common? A habit of ignoring customer feedback and suggestions and their inability to properly beta test their products, resulting in crappy products.
