That's not what the 1st statement says though - to paraphrase, it says I can play the game without steam having been installed. If that is not the intended meaning, then I suggest it should be changed to be clear.StarTroll wrote:They do fit well together. the first explains that you have access to a no-Steam executable which allows you to not have steam on permanantly, and the second says taht you still have to activate the game on Steam then go on with the patch to "lose" Steam.

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not sure....
it doesn't say anything about never needing to install steam, it just says for thats who dont want it running permantly.skadoink wrote:That's not what the 1st statement says though - to paraphrase, it says I can play the game without steam having been installed.

so once its installed, you can use the exe to remove the steam dependacy.
But then how would you currently acquire the game ?skadoink wrote:That's not what the 1st statement says though - to paraphrase, it says I can play the game without steam having been installed.

Current total, 4 threads about the steam/AP patch availability, 0 threads complaining about not being able to download 3.2 (I haven't seen a single comment in fact). Wasn't one of the reasons cited for steam for AP 'reduced support requirements'?Slashman wrote:The new patch for TC and AP is live on Steam!

I'm not sure quite what point you think you're making here, especially since much of the "support cost" of not using Steam is associated with people not installing patches, but regardless, it's not in the slightest bit relevant to this thread.
In fact, since we now have a shiny new 1.1 thread, I think this one can sink down the forum.
