*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 Thanks! :-) The steam launcher/install is all figured out yeah. Their install/patch system is pretty slick. Playing thru Steam is totally optional, of course - you can still play as normal with the version you download from the DW website itself. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 15, 2014, 6:18 pm Last edited Aug 15, 2014, 6:18 pm by *sam*

Just getting together a few decent cars to give away, and set up a squad to scout with new players who are in in the (UK) daytime when there's not many players in. ......................... vet ww wv e2g gwextrav sssc northernsummer gateautumn deathrce1 marshal race1 raceL1 combat1 pvp5 pvp4 pvp3 pvp20,1,0 Posted Aug 15, 2014, 7:24 pm

*StCrispin* Beasts of the Lair Darkwind Guru Anarchists Faction Group: Marshals Posts: 2,657 Joined: Feb 13, 2012 Awesome. I'll probably download the steam version so it is displayed in my list of games and in the steam statistics showing how many people play it. Will subs and CHR be purchasable via Steam Wallet or will it still be from the website? Will there be Steam Achievements? Steam collector cards? I know those 2 things are important to some steamys and drive sales. I've bought a cheap game before knowing I can make back what I spent selling the collector cards. And I've played F2P games solely for that reason but most of those done seem to offer the cards ......................... vet wv gwped paintladder paintball marshal raceL10,1,0 Posted Aug 15, 2014, 9:13 pm

Yeah, some of them refer to themselves as "achievement chasers" and buy even the worst games just to get achievements. And they admit it freely. Personally I'll play a bad game if I can make a profit from it. I got one not long ago for 98 cents and made $1.25 off the collector cards. Although playing the game for 3 and a half hours to profit 27 cents is pretty stupid. ......................... vet wv gwped paintladder paintball marshal raceL10,1,0 Posted Aug 16, 2014, 2:43 am Last edited Aug 16, 2014, 2:44 am by StCrispin

I definitely want to do achievements and collector cards, yes. But not an immediate priority - I don't particularly want to drum up more traffic than the regular Steam publicity will produce,  at least until I know that the servers won't struggle ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 16, 2014, 4:53 am

One thing I have come to realise is that gamers are a very varied lot, and enjoy quite different things. I'm not a collector/achiever type myself but its quite a common approach ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 16, 2014, 4:57 am

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 It's the biggest (by far) "app store" for PC and Mac games. So it's a big opportunity to get discovered by lots of new players :-) I think games such as XCom have helped "normalise" turn-based play so I'm hopeful that it will be broadly well received. I'm sure there will be plenty of negative comments too, but that comes with the territory. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 16, 2014, 10:13 am
