You'd be better off with a newer game, tbh. H2V is basically dead now, even to me, and I'm one of the people that was like "omg<3h2vnevergonnadiebaylifeand-blam!-". CE is basically inhabited by Columbian/Mexican pirates, so have fun finding someone who play English. Also, I've noticed there's hardly any 1.09 servers anymore (the updated version) and most servers are run on 1.00-1.03 (versions that are the most common cracked copies, because most of the people who do don't realize that after 1.0?8? the cd check was removed). Also, there's hardly any people on in general compared to a year or two ago.
