I just witnessed steam do an update and now TC is updated to v3.0 ...

However I thought it was all meant to wait until the superbox due for release tomorrow?

I've installed every TC patch manually because Steam takes a week or two to catch up, so yes it is a surprise.

My boxed copy of the super box came today (GAME have a habit of sending games out a day early to make sure they are in the hands of customers from day 1 I believe).

Steam just updated my steam registered copy as well.

Now wondering if, having completed the final fury missions a while back the reward will be given so much later?

Maybe a silly question but are the game manuals on pdf or are they hardcopies. I enjoy something I can hold in my hand to read and don't have to print out. The price of printer ink is a plan to put us all in the poor house lol!

Hi guys,

Yes, 3.0 STEAM got a premature launch. Unfortunately, this comes with a warning.

It may be that the new STEAM achievements are not yet active. These include 3 for DiD mode and one for the new mission Balance of Power. We can't guarantee that these will unlock tonight. The best thing I can suggest is back up your save files just in case you pass an achievement earning point before they are activated.

They will be activated ASAP which may mean tomorrow.

I loaded for a sneak peek and yes you receive something!

But had 2 problems. 1) Game looped upon going to look at reward. 2) Random empty message when game loads.

I don't know why but I'd bet Steam ,somehow ,uploaded the wrong patch and if that's the case ,we'd better not save the game till they fix it .
