How many people are playing the game at this moment on average? I want stats, please.

I don't mind having to deal with all of the games problems and annoyances as long as there is a solid day to day population.

If there is a solid number of dedicated servers with players every day, I will buy the game.

I am wondering this myself. I hear that CE is much more active but I don't know for sure.

I'd say there are about 4 servers with 12-16 players online consistently, another 4 or so servers with like 4-8, and a few more with like 1 or 2. I've never had a problem joining any of these servers either or even starting my own and inviting everyone over to play specific gametypes that may not be running in the other ones. Enough people are usually up for anything, zombies, tower of power, ctf, slayer, etc.

That's great news! how is the community? Usually I love small community games since you are constantly playing the same group of people and every one has mics. Is it the same group of people pretty much?

I do see a bunch of players on regularly indeed. A lot of people use mics as well, but maybe its my settings or something but I can hardly hear people most of the time unfortunately. Nevertheless there is still strategy implemented through text chat pretty often. If not, I try and suggest one and the team usually starts it up. Nothing too fancy, simple instructions like "a couple people go for flag, get a warthog ready to pick up flag carrier." things like that.

At this moment there are:
4 games with 15/16 players
1 game with 13/16 players
1 game with 9/16 players
2 games with 7/16 players
2 games with 6/16 players
1 game with 4/16 players
3 games with 3/16 players
2 games with 2/16 players

Pick it up retail. And save our reciept unless you want your cd key void after a few reinstalls.
