I'm not sure I agree... I think that combat really feels a lot like any other MMO and really not very super heroish at all. I mean COH combat feels super.
I'm wondering what powers you've tried?
That's something I noticed - not all powers are good, and some are so good that you suffer for not taking them.
A lot of the powers really are unspectacular. I went back to the training room so many times when I tried a sorcerer to get rid of dud powers after trying them "in the field". The summoning ones were completely useless. The buff effects from the auras were pretty weak. Circles weren't much better, apart from the energy regen one.
Even when I made my way to tier 3, my absolute best and most used power was still my starting attack, followed at a distance by block and heal.

You are fighting a group of mobs and they are flying all over you have awesome powers that can knock out a whole group with some massive attack or place a hold on the group. In COH combat is different then any other game. I feel that they dropped the ball here....
How much of the game have you played? My guy will destroy an entire room in seconds, its beautiful. He's not even a Might based character.

I don't know much about the Sorcerer powerset, but many of the powersets have very impressive powers. The sorcerer powerset seems to be geared more towards support type stuff, lots of buffs & heals.

I have to agree with this.
And theres not much variety either, most skills work in the same way just look different and maybe have a different random effect like chills and fear etc.
The only good pets are the gadgeteering ones, the munition bots and healing drones are awesome. And the energy building attack is really fast.
So far ive noticed that telepathy and that other power in same category are best in pvp so far. They have an amazing heal, good dps and rooting abilities.
Whenever i went against them as lets say any of the elemental powers i would take off 50% of their hp and they would just heal and kill me since i have no efficient heals.
A lot of skill balancing must be done.
Overall thought this is a fun game even though it kicks my eyes in the face with constant jumpy action and the art style. End up with bloodshot eyes after a few hours. (this isnt a complaint about the graphics, just saying its not very healthy for your eyes)
