Cannot find game on Steam
« on: October 21, 2009, 02:28:49 pm »
The link on the website just takes me to the front page of Steam's store. Are you SURE its on Steam yet?

Sorry for the confusion -- it's definitely not on Steam quite yet, sorry for the confusion there.  The link points to the location where the store page will be up within a matter of hours.  Valve has the same setup with our Steam Community page:  http://steamcommunity.com/games/aiwar

There'll be a big announcement in our news forum, and on the main page of our site, when it comes out on Steam.  Should be today, but bear in mind that Valve is on the west coast, so it's still early in their time zone.  I don't have details on the exact timing at the moment, unfortunately.

It is most definitely not. At least for East Coast. Still eagerly waiting! (Even though I've owned it for a while now. Shhh!)

As awesome as Valve is, their speed isn't. I mean, we  have Valve Time after all ::)

Lol.

Oh, and for the record: You can input your current AI War key into Steam (when its released).

Which I have yet to see in practice, but that's what they tell me.

This kind of feels like a release day for me, even though I could technically go and buy a license key now; I had just learned about the game about 3 days ago, and at the same time learned about a Steam release.

So I'd rather get the game through Steam (I buy most of my games there).

I will be playing the full version for the first time with the steam client version.   :o

It feels like a release day to me, too, honestly, and I'm the developer and have been successfully selling it elsewhere for five months now.  Funny how that is. :)

Cool! That is good news. I was worried I had missed that chance.

Its funny how I'm so excited for it (More than some of the other games I've pre-ordered like Borderlands and L4D2) and I've already been playing it for nearly half a year.

I found this in PC Gamer 2 days ago and read an older interview that said this would happen in a week or two. I didn't know the interview was older though.
