[Solved] Official Steam Demo - Cannot launch
« on: October 23, 2009, 01:03:53 am »
Hi

I downloaded the demo from steam.

When I go to launch (either from the desktop icon or the steam "my games" list) a box appears saying "This game must be launched from steam! IsSubscibed App Failed" - then return to the game store page.

Not really an an incentive to buy the game if the demo doesn't work?

Any suggestions?

I am running windows XP

Please help

This is a known issue, see this thread - http://arcengames.com/forums/index.php/topic,1853.msg11564.html#msg11564

Until the issue is resolved, you can download the demo from another location - http://www.arcengames.com/aiwar_buy.php

I had this same problem too.

I solved it by buying the game. I was not disappointed too. :D

I'm so tempted to mark this as solved. ;)
