Do alot of people still play this game, or is it dead? Im thinking about picking it up but I dont want to buy a game with no community.
Do a lot of people still play this game online?

CoH doesnt have a massive community. Seeing that the games only need 2-8 players you dont need a large amound of players.
I really reccomend picking up CoH, it is one of the most satisfying games I have ever played. Great singleplayer campaign with long and intense multiplayer battles. As I said CoH doesnt have a huge community, but its community is a great amount of people. Their is usually 1000-2000 people online in it a time.
Also, CoD4 is also an awesome game. Pick those two games up, but get CoD4 for PC, I guarantee a better experiance!

when I downloaded the COD4 demo for comp it was chuggy at medium. COH demo runs great at high which is weird. Im not expecting a huge community since this an rts, but lets say comparable to WIC. I just dont want another CNC generals where it was impossible to find a multiplayer match.Comment

If you are going to get cod4 for 360 then no.. get CoH for PC.. Cod4 is an awesome game but fps+console = crap... get cod4 for pc and it will be the last game you will buy in a long time..Comment

COH has a good community considering game size. Yes it is probably smaller then WIC, but if you like those kind of RTS's (no basebuilding, no cover system, units are expendable) then you'll have a tough time playing COH. COH is a great game, but one that can be very challenging to new players.
You'll never have trouble finding a game with COH, you may have to wait if you do an automatch (ranked game) so that it can pair you up with someone of "relative" skill level.
COH was released last year and this year (a few months ago actually) OF was released. COH give you 2 sides (American and Whermacht) and OF gives you the "new" sides (British and Panzer Elite). There is a bundle pack that allows you to get both game, just make sure it says that it includes the original COH. If you just get OF you can only play the British and the Panzer Elite.
When installing OF it may say that it is removing COH, but don't get pissed, OF has all of the COH stuff but it is locked and can only be "opened" if you have the COH CD key. I know it sounds weird but that is how it works, you aren't getting jipped out of any money.
Hope that helps.Comment

Originally posted by sausagesonI just downloaded the OF demo and it runs terrible, which is weird cause the vCOH demo ran flawlessly. Does the retail version run like this? if it does im just going to buy the original COH.
You must have downloaded something cracked because there is no OF demo.Comment
