I wouldn't count on that guy's source

i suppose it could be number of games installed.
Your profile doesn't track which game is installed, publicly.
http://steamcommunity.com/id/xxx/games/ shows the games you own, their "playtime", and if you have played them in the past 2 weeks.
A tiny official report by Sega:
http://www.segasammy.co.jp/english/pdf/release/201503_3q_tanshinhosoku_e_final.pdf
They also reported 680k units of COH2 sold for their fiscal year ending march 31st 2014, the other source started around that time and claims 4m units sold since then... probably including DLC in general?

If I remember that thread correctly. It was theorized that whenever the game was added to someones library counted as one.
But one would need clarification from how these two different sources collect their data.

Well, the main problem is the difference between game and DLC, which COH2 partly doesn't have. Buying a single WFA expansion would count as a sale. Buying COH2, both WFA armies each, and AA, would be even four separate sales, while the amount of owners stays the same - the latter is the point of steamspy.
It doesn't show sales, it shows unique owners of the games franchise.
I'm pretty sure the "sales" data from arstechnica is slightly screwed up due incorporated data from free weekends.

Yeah that seems to make sense. So 1.6 million owners and the 4 million figure consisting of people owning both base game and WFA.

It's at least the only way i can think of atm. which would make the numbers add up somehow.
Segas fiscal year report stated 680k units sold till 14-04-01, and the article describes 4m in sales starting 14-04-04 till around today'ish. That kinda is irritating nevertheless, especially if we consider that 27% of all owners never played the game.

But as mentioned there's the dlc issue, and free weekends skew figures depending when the measurement is taken.

I'm pleasantly surprised it's that high. I swear all I see about the game is "this game is ultra suck, fuck Relic" on Facebook, YouTube, etc. The unwarranted trashing this game gets after all the effort Relic took to improve it since release infuriates me. It's basically a different game now than release.
lol... yes, they've put a lot of work into it but a large part of that has been bad work and they're, if anything, exceptional for leaving the game is such bad a state, not for the patch work they've done.
