Two months is nothing.  It took twice as long as that for Paragon, working on it full-time as their actual jobs, with all of the code and tools already at hand, to put together, test and launch an Issue.
If that's the kind of timeframe you were expecting results on, then I'm sorry, but you clearly have no idea what's actually involved in a project like this.

I get it.  You want your game back, preferably exactly how it was at 00:00 12/1/12.  Log in to your characters and go.  And you want it to be done yesterday.  By people doing this in their spare time.
It doesn't work like that.
If you aren't prepared to wait literal years for a revival, a spiritual successor, a private server emulator or something else... then I'm sorry, because you will be terribly disappointed.

I am a patient person. I went to the doctor just a few months ago. :)

I have two words for you.

Patient and Doctor.

Jerry:  "Never."

Well...After playing CoH/V since Sept '04...I'm quite certain that I can wait a few months, even a year or two to get going at it again. Mind you, I'm more than happy to wait on the Plan Zs that are in the works. Looking forward to them! And I know I'm not very vocal about all this, here or elsewhere really...but I still got to the old CoH website and keep giving it page hits every day. Making sure that they know that there are still some who want it back.

Confused.
If you go see a Doctor, you are usually called a patient...hence...a patient person...

I've been told that if you have to explain a joke it wasn't a funny one... :(

Well, Dr. Mallard, the ME for NCIS, wears a Bow Tie. But, I seriously doubt anyone would want to be a "patient" of his.

No blue box of traveling though.
