This really caught me by suprise.  I thought the game was doing well.

Very sad indeed - always sad to see a much-loved game/franchise shut their doors after many years of bringing joy to their players.

Best wishes and luck to all staff affected by this closure.

In all seriousness - Anet is hiring! http://www.arena.net/jobs/

Hope they all swiftly find employment, CoH was never the game for me, but it was unique and much loved by many. Much respect.
