Wait a second... 380,000 units of Coh2 sold?!?!? HUH?!?!?! That means that at any given time only .1% (380 at best) are playing multiplayer at any given time?!? LOL. Yeah right.

More like 38 people. If that... CANNOT BELIEVE THE TURNOVER IS POOR. Sorry. No way is an entire game mode only being played by .01% of a game ownership at any given time. Sega is WISHING they sold 380,000.

In fact... 380,000 x $60 is 22 million dollars. Probably more like 30 with aditonal DLC and exclusive editions.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown unit sold: 390,000

Average players online on steam: 4,000 let's say 5,000 because it doesn't require steam.

so that equals 1,28% of players playing the game.

COH2:

380,000 units sold
6,000 players on average.

=1.57%

I'm surprised as well, but it does seem to make sense.

I do think that I qualify has a mid level player being ranked in the 500s, my only point being that even at this stage, I don't know everything and I find this a bit disturbing in order to get new players into this game. I'm all about deep and complex games but I wish the information was clearer and more accessible. Another thread inspired me to create this one and my goal is to collect all answers from everyone's questions asked in this thread and post it somewhere, either on this website if the mods are willing to upload it to the guides or somewhere else so it's available to everyone.

I invite everyone to ask their questions and also for everyone else to answer them if they think they know the answer.

I also remember on gamereplays.org there was a weekly or so, youtube videos titled "COH Mythbusters" and thought about doing the same thing if the community is divided on an answer.

Here are some of my questions:

1. ZiS-3 76mm: When firing barrage, if a shell hits a tank, is it the same damage has a normal shot ? I don't think it's the same, what's the difference ?

2. Crushing: I know the T-70 has pretty good crushing stat, which other tank can crush and which ones are the best, are pinned units more likely to get crushed?

3. Mortar Barrage: Beside shooting faster, is it more accurate ? I can test this but after using barrage, is there a delay before the mortar starts firing shells again ?

4. Correct me if I'm wrong, but flame was very powerful vs. infantry with armor in vCOH, is this still the case ?

5. I saw different information concerning "Oorah" in one post, I saw that it increase combat effectiveness, is this true or does it only increase the movement speed ?

I forgot what they said in the stream, with AT nades, do you have more chances of penetration if it's thrown from behind the PIV ?
