I've been playing a little, and I have to say that CoV is an improvement. The world seems more lively and the main story pulls you in from the beginning.

I'm a little dissappointed by the character options/powers, though. Aside from Mastermind, they all seem just like CoH. This is just after a few hours play and one character, though, so I haven't explored the options all that deeply as yet.
