No problem, and thanks for links! I actually hadn't seen the one about wish-tracking. Not sure how I missed that.

So, I read your brief bio in the 'The Team' section of the Endless Space site. Narrative Director... played Baldur's Gate to completion six times... Are there going to be any special events with large extra-solar rodents? Inquiring minds need to know! If not, how much bribe booze would it take to get this done? *snicker*

Thanks!

Nice! Thank you for the information.

Downloading now!

Thanks. Here's to hoping you find a way to bring the game to GOG!

Seems like it's gonna be out on the 5th of July, any chance to see it on GoG before I pre-order from Gamersgate?

No. http://forums.amplitude-studios.com/showthread.php?179-Endless-Space-Q-amp-A-%28Ask-away-here%29/page3

Just read that info myself. Fitting bad start for a monday morning. *sigh* And it sounded like such a fun game.

The guy says he guesses that will be for the iceberg interactive version. However iceberg interactive has a history of releasing DRM free games. I noticed there is a iceberg interactive retail (DVD) version of the game. Anyone has any update on if that version has steamworks or not? I couldn't care less for the online part, I just want my drm free game.


Other than that, I am very tempted to buy the game. It looks very good and I like what they have done with the battles.

Anyone bought it from Iceberg Interactive website yet?
I'm asking because for some reason I can't get further than choosing payment method in the checkout process. I've just sent a email to them asking for help but I thought I'd ask here too. Maybe I'll get a quicker answer. :)

Pfft steam only games are shit. They use their DRM as a cover for not putting the effort in Daiblo 3, Civ5, Any of the modern shooters that still don't incorporate proper bots with decent AI and it's turning publishers into mooks retracting LAN based capability.
I'm in Australia where internet is shit and mobile plans are strangled i'm not constantly connecting to you services; no thanks, no thanks.

Is there any particular reason why you decided to re-open a 2 year old thread to make acomment you could have made in any one about a more recent threads? It's not hard to find one that talks about Steam or a game on Steam, but it is hard to search for a dead thread and necro it.

a) Diablo 3 doesn't use Steam DRM
b) What do bots have to do with anything?
c) What does that have in common with Endless Space in any way, aside from it being Steam game?
