I get the impression that oleg was forced down the steam vac route after the il2 hardcoding was cracked and they were too far along with the new engine to generate a new anticheating system

Also, after inspecting STEAM "agreement license" you can't agree with such abusive conditions: "Steam does NOT guarantee continuous, error-free, virus-free or secure operation and access to steam, the software, your account and or your subscriptions" Reading a further more you also find out that it restricts game registration and playability to the buyer's country of residence, availability is not guaranteed and there is no legal obligation to release an update disabling the authentication system in the event that Steam becomes permanently unavailable. So they basically take your money, and do whatever they want with you. Then they eventually stop supporting your beloved game and leave you out without options. If that is not abusive (to say the least), then I don't know what this word means. No respect for the sincere customer. I am very sad: no CoD for me under those conditions. I want to pay BIG money for a game so that I receive a CD-DVD, register it once and then have the freedom of playing it unrestrictively as long as I want in any country and without depending on a corporation that from the start tells you they don't care about supporting you and hence they only will be source of problems. ![]() EDIT: I am so sad about this, I even forgot to say, hello everybody ![]() Last edited by Maori; 03-14-2011 at 08:04 AM.

Fascinating how dependent we are huh? The kind of perfection and stability requirements some people expect are tiresome, the service will be up an running 99% of the time just like anything else. Last edited by zauii; 03-14-2011 at 12:40 PM. |

I will guarantee you that if this discussion was about head tracking software, that the majority of the Steam fan boys would be against the major player in the technology and for (free) choice in the marketplace.
Why is the discussion about Steam any different? The hypocricy runs deep here.

![]() and may I add that dependence to steam is not at all necessary, but artificially induced by the way CoD is delivered. |

Another bunch of false accusations to try and stir up some revolution i recon? "I can't run IL2S on win95 , they've completely taken my freedom away!" sounds almost as ridiculous as your entire post actually.. just to put it into perspective. |
