The recently released update has brought with it a fundamental change to the COH/V experience, the salvage system. Now you can find bits of salvage lying around post battle that, when combined using a recipe, can be used to create anything from extra powerful enhancements and inspirations to suitably fancy costume add-ons. It's not exactly revolutionary when compared to other MMO's but it goes someway towards keeping COH/V competitive even if it was a long time coming. Auction houses also make their first appearance under the guise of Consignment Markets or the Black Market depending which game you're playing, another addition that bring COH/V belatedly into line with newer MMOs.
