I like steam as well, it can check your install for faults, lets you interact with other players who play the game, gives you an ingame overlay with all kinds of functions and lots of other things.
But aside from that, the only thing I notice when playing a steam game, is the "Starting your game" message and that's it.

So you're skipping CoD because you don't 'like' steam? I doubt you have interest in CoD in the first place, anyway, your loss

Not for you and me, but you have seen all the IL2 threads about how to patch the game haven't you? Think before you type.

Also brick and mortor stores are going the way of the Dodo, people need to get used to things like Steam or simply give up gaming.

I guess it's not mandatory to have Steam. This is probably the steam enabled version in a digital download release for people who like steam. Since we know there's another copy protection system as well, my guess is that the boxed editions will not require steam.

^ Pretty sure you're right with what you said.

Still asking myself if the true Steam download version will still make use of the Tages-like copy protection system. Some games sold on Steam do, even if it's kind of pointless due to the way Valve's system works. Even if EA Games isn't my favorite publisher, I still greatly appreciated it when they decided to remove all of their 5-time activation limits from their games sold on Steam.

Is there a "hard" collectors addition available anywhere?

Presumably that depends on servers and what version of the game they'll be running? Either the server follws steam, or you're in a pickle?
