Company of Heroes

What works

Single player campaigns

Multiplayer

Operations

Cutscenes

What does not

You can't alt-tab out of the game, it will freeze (I'm not sure
if this works on Windows).  It will also freeze if something else
(calendar) tries to steal focus, see HowTo for workaround. 

There are a few other bugs (Like scrolling messed up with certain settings), but AFAICT they exist in the game itself.

Not worthy of any kind of competitive play online, it simply crashes to much (seemingly especially the more players you add but I couldn't test extensively).  Since it works fine for single player, but multiplayer doesn't work reliably enough I'm downgrading to Silver.  My HowTo workaround isn't reliable enough.   I don't believe this is a regression in Wine code, but more that I'm trying to play more online games.

Additional Comments

If you can get Steam running, this should mostly just work. I am running the nvidia proprietary driver on a 750 Ti, but have also run it using the Nouveau driver with no ill effects.

CoH has a bug where the game can freeze if something else tries to take focus.  A few things you can do to minimize the chances of your game freezing in the middle of play.

1. Disable Steam Overlay
2. Open Steam chat windows with people who might try to contact you.
3. Close everything else, especially calendaring systems
