Get the cracked version, or worry about playing whatever the
best game out at the time is?
The same as we always do, we'll grab our pitch-forks, hoes, torches,
shovels and head up to the old windmill on the hill...

If that happened, at least we would be some of the lucky ones who
actually played the game. Live for the moment, people.

Come on guys
Wtf
Do you think Valve is some kind of ?bermeisster in advanced programming?
Get out of here
One who follows the discussion in the VERC developer forums will know that
the Steam content file system is wide open in the SDK
A very professional modteam has developed a better more efficient content -
and server system and as such they can play their MP mod without Steam on
non Steam servers
This give some legal problems for the modteam - obviously
They will have to add code in order to check that is Steam running and the
users Steamticket is valid - well that's another story
But the bottomline here is that if Valve goes under it'll be a matter of
weeks before nonSteam versions is flooding the internet
Hell - you have already a cracked pseudo Steam engine floating around for
the SP version

whining same as us. .... I think?
