Well if I didn't understand first time round then it doesn't make sense. I'll have no reason to rage about Steam with a pirated copy. :)

without hacked/ pirated softwares, there would be no need to have a "Steam" to rage about in the first place, eh ;)

No, because like I said, it's a distribution system, not software protection. It's like saying the reason we have online shopping is because of theft...

the bit you missed ->




its not that hard ;)

You seem to be doing a pretty good job at complaining right now to be honest.

And I wish you lots of enjoyment with your "free" version which has had 0 patches and is still in the state CLOD was in on release.
Please keep us updated on how much you enjoy playing offline with the early release version and remember you have no reason to complain about how well your stolen software works.

lol

very weak argument!

Steam actually makes it easier for people to crack games and get them out even faster now. The future is not steam.. its a fad. As the future approaches the abillity for each publisher to distribute their games digital will get easier and easier and wont need a 3rd party to do that anymore. So each publisher will simply distribute the game their selves digitally like it should be

You may be right, but having used the EA online content distribution system for a few years I would rather have Steam. :)

Of course... its EA games.. expect crap

Definitely not true in my opinion. Steam helps nothing to prevent copyright infringements. The only reason Steam DRM protections exists, is to prevent people from selling their used games.

Of course Steam does a lot more than DRM.
