Well that would be great to get rid of Steam. However I specifically asked Luthier if he would ever get rid of it and he said 'no'. Although he did say later he will be releasing SDK for modding. So, I think he supports modding, but he would like you to do it through the SDK. I understand this. They need to make a living doing what they do, somehow.

2. will you ever consider getting rid of steam and going to hyper-lobby format?
No.
On the other hand, if you invested thousands of dollars in hardware to play this dud, I can see a strong case for wanting to circumvent and make the game playable in the meantime until the sequel. Self interest verses community, usually the former wins out.
If I was Luthier, I would get on that SDK release really fast.
